We all know that Verne Troyer (aka Austin Powers’ “Mini-Me”) is suing TMZ.com, Kevin Blatt (the man responsible for Paris Hilton’s sex tape), and a few others for $20 million over the sex tape that Troyer claims was stolen from him and posted online.
A commenter here on our site backed up this claim.
“I think this is so sad! This girl [Troyer's sex tape partner Ranae Shrider] is a sad little girl from Kentuky [sic] that called me the night the video went missing. [Troyer's] new manager was badgering this poor girl. She left for work came back and he was there and it was missing. I think its a sick publicity stunt that will ruin what little reputation she has left to ‘make it’ in Hollywood. She really thought she was in love. And now what she thought was real is become dirty and grotesque.”
[From Celebitchy comments]
Oh, please. Call the WAAAAHHHHbulance.
WELL! It turns out that the 39-year-old, 2 foot 8 inch actor’s girlfriend Ranae Shrider signed a declaration filed in federal court stating the tape was created with her video camera and she gave permission to TMZ to air it, thus prompting the judge to allow TMZ to reinstate the post featuring mini-scenes of the tape.
We would post it here but we received a cease and desist order from “his people” stating it’s a violation of his privacy and attached a copy of a temporary restraining order which prohibits us, et al from the exhibition, display or broadcast of any portion of the video on the internet, television, or any other medium. Click here to see it directly.
Now then; Mini-Me has been going around bragging that his “me” isn’t so “mini.” When the Tampa, Florida MJ Morning Show spoke with Ranae, she said:
“This is all I’m going to say: As previously reported on interviews made by him, it is definitely not a tripod.”
[From Stuff.co.nz]
After the radio show host asked Ranae if Troyer is “proportionate for a man of 2ft 8in?” Ranae responded with a resounding “Yes.”
Okay, first, I didn’t need that visual to be supported or denied, thanks for that to both the MJ Morning Show and Ranae. Secondly, I guess we’ll see what “powers” the Austin star has after TMZ Productions, Inc., Sugar DVD, and Kevin Blatt appear in court on July 7th.

Well what a delightful little treat that is. Those fingers on mini-me are just gross! Blech!

Oddly enough, she’s a pretty girl when she’s photographed in um…clothes and makeup. Mini Me… no, not so much.
What’s the attraction? He can’t have THAT much money, I’ve heard he’s a real jerk, not attractive (IMO), and he’s certainly not A-list. Will someone explain this to me please?

I don’t find him even marginally attractive, even fully dressed and alone. That video preview is seared on my brain now, and probably will lead to early Alzheimer’s. The judge did no one a favor.
