Perez Hilton Sued For $7.5 Million - OOPS!
We told you a few weeks ago that X17 was pissed at Perez for stealing their pics and that their photog confronted him at a club recently. Well now the top seven paparazzi agencies in the US.Splash News, INF, Ramey, Bauer Griffin, WENN, Most Wanted and Flynet are suing the mean spirited gossip blogger Perez Hilton aka Mario Lavandeira, for copyright infringement. The agency claims Perez used their images on his website "without permission from the agency, thereby violating federal law."The tabloid agency is seeking over $7.5 million dollars in damages from Perez for what they say is a loss of profits and injury to their reputation. The photo agency believes their pics have played a large part in the success and profitability of perezhilton.com, which reportedly charges between $9,000 and $16,000 a week for ad space.
Check out the video of Perez getting served.

The paparazzi are stealing images of celebrities by taking unauthorized photographs of celebrities!
How can they ask a court to protect their stolen material?
