Samantha Ronson Pays $86K to Perez

Samantha Ronson can scratch this lawsuit off her set list.
On Friday, gossip blogger Perez Hilton received a big fat check from
Lindsay Lohan's gal-pal for nearly $87,000 to cover his legal fees
from a failed libel lawsuit.
In July 2007, the celebrity DJ sued Perez (aka Mario Lavandeira) for
defamation after he reported that she owned the cocaine found in
Lilo's car after a May 2007 crash. A judge threw out the case in
January 2008 and ruled that Ronson had to pay for Hilton's legal fees,
which she hadn't done up until now.
By paying the $86,832, SamRo avoids a court hearing on Monday to
discuss how she was going to pay.

One immature fool defeated another immature fool.

People in the Trash Journalism business may not know a lot of things,
but they do know exactly where the lines are between what they can get
away with and what they can't get away with. The National Enquirer has
been in the celebrity sleaze business since the 1970s, there's a new
issue every week and you could probably count the number of successful
lawsuits against it on one hand and have a finger or two left over.
That's not luck. People like Perez and the Enquirer's editors know how
say that "SamRo is a crackhead" without actually saying it. They have
Innuendo down to a science.

She looked like she was riding the horse, not the pipe, in all the
early pics of them together. She had the waxy/emaciated look of a
junkie, vice the sweaty/emaciated look of a tweeker or coke fiend.
They both look much healthier in recent shots, and if that's due to
finding domestic happiness together, super! I have my doubts, though,
as it's rare for former partyin' couples to clean their acts up and be
mutually supportive in recovery.
