'08

At first, it seemed like he’d leaked the sex tape himself, but now it looks like “Mini-Me” Verne Troyer prefers to keep his bedroom activities private after all. The actor is seriously pissed at TMZ and is suing the site for posting stills and clips from the tape earlier this week.
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.
No word yet on who may have stolen the tape. It sounds like Verne might be hanging out with some less-than-trustworthy people these days- and that person knew just where to go with a sex tape. Meanwhile, TMZ might be getting sued, but it’s not stopping them from finding out more about Verne’s co-star in the tape. Apparently she’s a 22-year-old aspiring model from Kentucky who really thought Verne was in love with her. Poor kid.
Picture note by Celebitchy: Verne Troyer and his sex tape co-star are shown at the MTV Movie Awards on 6/1/08. I bet he broke up with her and she’s the one who released the sex tape and all the personal photos to TMZ.

Come on, “calls to TMZ were not returned”?? That’s awesome.

Um, Susan, love isn’t about what people look like.
I’m sure TMZ will settle & then ruin someone else’s life. They suck

I also believe there needs to be a physical attraction at first. Don’t you? If you saw mini-me across a room would you be interested?
Just saying…..
And, he was pretty obnoxious on the surreal life.

I think physical attraction is very important, but it doesn’t need to come first. Sometimes it comes later.
I seriously doubt that I’d do anything naughty with him though. He WAS a total ass on Surreal Life

Sick your lawyers on them, Mini-meat. Cool Lark you got there by the way.

Looks aren’t everything but he is jarringly freaky. I mean, he’s not just small like a midget here in this picture he looks like half of one.
What did she do when she had sex with him?
Palm that little bald head with one hand and hold it down there? -
He is a disgusting human being and not because he is a dwarf, it’s because he is a drunken pervert!
-
All of these “aspiring models & actresses” are just flat out pathetic. Willing to leach on anything or anyone who can “further” their career. Get real, ladies. You deserve all the ill-will you get
-
Is this like, a shock video thing or something? “From the people who brought you ‘Tub Girl’ and ‘2 Girls, 1 Cup’…”
-
She’s a nasty, opportunistic slut and he’s a dumb-ass for allowing himself to get caught up in this situation. Jeez! Who’d even want to watch that?
