  • Roman Polanski fears media like plague: attorney

    OCS 291105 M

    Roman Polanski unleashed a slew of lawsuits against print publications that ran photographs of himself and his family.

    His lawyer in the suits, Marion Gregoire, declared the French-Polish fugitive of the US fears the media “like the plague”.

    Polanski and his wife, Emmanuelle Seigner, are suing four French publications, two newspapers and two magazines for a total of about 150,000 euros ($217,000).

    Polanski is under house arrest in Switzerland after providing a $4.5million cash bail to Zurich authorities that nabbed him attending a film festival last September. He is wanted in Los Angeles to answer to charges he had sex with a minor in 1977.

    Polanski’s children, Elvis and Morgane, were allegedly in the photos. French law protects minors from being shown in the media. “The legal case against Polanski in no way justifies the paparazzi’s stalking of his wife and children,” Gregoire said.

    Gregoire argued that Le Journal du Dimanche weekly newspaper should pay damages of 10,000 euros for a photo of Polanski at a window. Christophe Bigot, a lawyer for the newspaper, held up a photo of a mass of photographers outside Polanski’s chalet soon after his house arrest. He said: “Can you seriously claim in this context that if you stand at the window you won’t get your picture taken?”

  • Lisa Marie Presley Talks Michael Jackson

    Lisa Marie Presley, who was shared a brief marriage with Michael Jackson back in the 90s, wrote in her blog recently that the singer once predicted that he was headed down the same path as her father, the King of Rock n Roll, Elvis. Elvis died at the age of 42 after battling his addiction to prescription drugs. On her blog, Lisa Marie wrote that Michael once told her “’ I am afraid that I’m going to end up like [Elvis], the way he did.’ I promptly tried to deter him from the idea, at which point he just shrugged his shoulders and nodded almost matter of fact as if to let me know, he knew what he knew and that was kind of that.”
