Courtenay Semel, who is known for dating Lindsay Lohan and Tila Tequila, but is now on-again with Johnson & Johnson Heiress Casey Johnson, has been cut off from her trust fund. Surprisingly, it isn’t because of her association with Lindsay or Tila, but rather because of her recent brawling. Her father is former yahoo CEO Terry Semel.
“My family cut me off,” she whined, saying that daddy Terry Semel froze her trust fund and now won’t answer her calls.
“I don’t want to be known for all this craziness in my life,” said the 29-year-old Semel, star of the E! reality series “Filthy Rich: Cattle Drive.”
“It’s ruined a lot of friendships and relationships with my friends and my family, most important. I haven’t been in contact with my family, and the only way they know what’s going on with me is Page Six.”
The last straw for Pops was his daughter’s run-in with a Vegas security guard who barred her re-entry into a club last year. In a drunken stupor, she famously screamed, “Do you even know who I am, f- – -ing idiot? Google me, you dumb f- – -,” before allegedly punching him in the face.
“I’m not used to the word ‘no,’ ” she said.
She recalled, “I’m sitting in a jail in the basement of Caesars Palace, with these guards yelling in my face . . . It led me to a rock bottom, which I’m in now.”
The charges were dropped, but the security guard is suing her.
“I literally have been in a downward spiral since all this has happened. I lost my family, I’ve been cut off.”
“I just never thought about how to put gas in my car or food on the table,” she said. “I was fully supported, I wasn’t worried.”
Courtenay is turning 30 years old this year, and she’s never had to think about gas or food? When her father retired she never thought about supporting herself, and she never considered how she might pay a credit card bill. She’s never felt a need or desire to be an independent person, she’s been fine just taking the money from her parents. I just don’t understand this at all.
Courtenay fortunately has a plan – she’s going to show everyone she can be a mogul like her dad – she’s going to appear in a reality show.
This might not be the worst idea ever – Paris Hilton is obviously an heiress like Courtenay, but works hard on her reality shows, clothing range, public appearances and music career. She doesn’t work as hard as someone who establishes themselves from nothing, studying for years in order to have the expertise to create a clothing line or music, but she does work hard at honing her public image. Courtenay, who famously screamed at a security guard “Do you know who I am?”, should go see Paris’ stylist. Paris isn’t that attractive, but manages to look pretty good. Courtenay could use some help in that department.

Another Celebutard. sick of ’em.
Idiotic brat. She might have ended up being a decent human being if yahoo had failed. So much for the American Dream : rots your kids.
Sigh, reading this make me think Paris is “a little” better than this waste of space of a human being. She doesnt need a stylist, she needs a lobotomy.
Those pink tights were too much for me to see first thing in the morning.
Another fevered ego stealing precious oxygen, poisoning our collective consciousness, and making us pay a higher psychic and spiritual price as a species than we need to.
Hooray for tough love, but this chick isn’t going to change anytime soon. She is almost 30.
She’ll just mooch off of her rich girlfriend(s).
She is so hot though.
Funny how these rich parents throw cash at their offspring (well into adulthood, no less) and then wonder why they grow up to be useless louts. Nearly 30 and can’t operate a gas pump? Well done, Terry.
I still find it funny that the daughter of a Yahoo CEO would say “Google me!”
GAH. My mind boggles at the idea we are somehow supposed to give a f**k.
Who does she think she is? She is only known by some (note i didn’t say “famous” cos she’s not) because she got with Tila…. If she was walking down the street nobody would know who she is! LoL. she is gross. She should get plastic surgery.
But seriously it sounds like she has never done any self-reflection in her whole 30 years. Where are her brain cells?
Rinaz – I thought the same thing! I wonder if it still brings up, “Obnoxious, Self-Important Trust Funder” if you forget that haughty extra “e” in her name.
