So Lisa Wilson, a woman who was a flight attendant on a private flight JLo took in 2006, is suing Jen for $5M, claiming the Jennifer's dog lunged at her and bit her while she was walking down the aisle of the plane.
Lisa began treatment within days for back pain and in April of 2007 underwent surgery. Per the suit, she remains in treatment and has been unable to resume her work as a flight attendant, resulting in—what else?—"substantial economic loss."
In her suit, she clai...
From TMZ.com:
Verne Troyer has filed a $20 million lawsuit, claiming TMZ violated his rights by publishing and airing portions of his sex tape.
In the suit, filed today in U.S. District Court in downtown L.A., Troyer claims TMZ violated his privacy rights and infringed on his copyright and trademark by running portions of the tape on TMZ TV and TMZ.com. He also alleges TMZ violated his right of publicity and misappropriated his name and likeness.
Troyer says the tape was stolen and ended up in the hands of Kevin Blatt, the guy who distributed "One Night in Paris." Blatt is also named as a defendant.
In addition to damages, Troyer wants an injunction prohibiting further dissemination of the video.
Calls to TMZ were not returned.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
TMZ has not pulled the clip.
It is still viewable in all its glory here.
Oh, how I hope this thing gets released in full. Please, God. In the past ten days, I have had three of those awful, hurty, way-beneath-the-skin pimples. I am owed this. />From TMZ.com:

Check out Mary-Kate Olsen on David Letterman last night. Go to around 5:20, where she and David start talking shit about Spencer Pratt, with whom MK apparently went to high school. />...
Sigh. I suppose it was just a matter of time.
Paris Hilton is teaming up with beau JoelBenji Madden to -- ugh -- record more music.
Paris tells E! News exclusively that the duo have been working in her new recording studio (conveniently located in her Beverly Hills mansion), writing songs—including a theme for her upcoming MTV show My New BFF.
"Benji and I have been working hard on it," Paris said. "He's helping me write the lyrics for the song and then I'll sing it, too."
When asks if she's going to subject the world to another album, Paris says "Definitely. I'll have another album come out, for sure. I just don't know when yet. I only hav...
Congratulations to Lindsay Lohan, who found out on the Internet today that she has a secret half-sister. Yes, it's true, Michael Lohan had an affair with some other woman while he was still married to Dina, knocked her up, and had a baby. The girl's 13 now, and Michael Lohan has decided to spill his guts to OK! magazine about it, before even telling the rest of his family, because he's classy like that.
In a statement to OK!, Michael says, "Years later [the woman] contacted me, convincing me t...
Okay, sorry I've been gone all day. I slept through my alarm and then I had to run to my Russian lesson. I'm learning Russian so that I can speak it to the Russian baby I'm adopting next year. But I'm back now, and I'm glad I am, because someone sent me a link to this interview with Verne Troyer sex-tape partner Ranae Shrider.
She's really a pretty boring interviewee, but the interview gets kind of interesting toward the end. ...
Congrats to Uma Thurman, who got engaged to hottie "financier" boyfriend Arpad Busson.
Arpad gave Uma a ring so big "she can't fit it through the sleeve of her coat," a friend said.
In other engagement news, congrats to Beet reader and my friend Trish, who got engaged this weekend to her boyfriend Jesse! Congrats you crazy kids!!!...

Paris Hilton has made a "generous" donation toward the construction of a medical building at Childrens Hospital Los Angeles, although hospital officials would not disclose the amount.
"The children I have met through my involvement with Childrens Hospital have truly touched my heart," Hilton said in a statement. "I am proud to make a donation and lend my name to the fundraising effort to help children who are facing terribly serious illnesses."
Heh.
You just know she donated a hundred...
Well, at least we know that one thing is big about Verne Troyer: his lawsuits.
Mini-Me has filed a multi-million dollar lawsuit against TMZ for running a clip of his sex tape on their website. He says that TMZ disregarded cease-and-desist letters sent both before and after the video showed up on the site.
Troyer has also sued Kevin Blatt (the man who sold the One Night in Paris footage), claiming her purchased the stolen tape and was trying to sell it to SugarDVD for $100K.

For reasons I can't begin to imagine -- well, I guess it's just to generate buzz -- the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences has released the Top 10 contenders for Best Comedy and Best Drama, even though the actual five nominees won't be released until later.
I assume this is just a way to boost ratings for the Emmy telecast -- to get people talking about it sooner rather than later -- but I just think it's just kind of mean to be like "You were this close" to everyone who doesn't make t...
Mary-Kate Olsen is not toothless!
The tiny twin -- who stars in the upcoming film The Wackness -- showed up at the film's screening and actually smiled!
We now officially have adult photos of both Olsen twins smiling.
I never thought the day would come.
By the way, MK makes out with her 64-year-old co-star, Ben Kingsley, in the film, a clip which I sincerely look forward to finding on YouTube soon. "She was completely in charge," says Kingsley of the make-out sesh. ...
