Paris Hilton Settles for over $2 Million in Defamation Suit
With a day to go before it heads to trial, Paris Hilton felt it in her best interests to pay more than $2 million in damages in a defamation suit brought against her by Zeta Graff. The New York Post is reporting that Graff alleges Paris Hilton planted a story in the press that wasn’t true.
In the suit, Graff alleged that Hilton planted a story on Page Six two years ago which falsely claimed a jealous Graff – the ex-girlfriend of Paris Latsis – had ripped a necklace off Hilton’s neck and been thrown out of London nightclub Kabaret, while Barry Manilow’s “Copacabana” played mockingly in the background. Graff’s lawyer, Michael Avenatti, said, “Both parties are glad the matter could be resolved without the time and expense of a trial.”
Paris Hilton manipulate the press? No. It couldn’t be!
