What will come of  all this? These types of lawsuits are difficult to prove. However, one thing is for certain, the MSM tabloids will have a field day. Let’s hope we can interview all parties involved to get their sides of the story.

Anna Nicole Smith’s lawyer and companion, Howard K. Stern, filed a $60 million libel lawsuit Tuesday against Rita Cosby and her publisher over a book she wrote that claims Stern and Smith’s ex-boyfriend, Larry Birkhead, had a sexual encounter.

The suit, filed in federal court in New York, seeks $10 million in compensatory damages and $50 million in punitive damages from Cosby, the former MSNBC host who wrote “Blonde Ambition: The Untold Story Behind Anna Nicole Smith’s Death” — and Hachette Book Group USA Inc.

The book, which hit stores in September, claims that besides the alleged sexual encounter, Birkhead and Stern both worked together after Smith’s death to manipulate the media and maximize profits. (AP)

Did anyone notice how Debra Opri sued Larry Birkhead and not Larry King for the comments made by Birkhead on Larry King Live. What a novel concept to go after the one who said the comments, not the messenger.

Larry Birkhead is to be sued by his former attorney for defamation, fraud and breach of contract.

Debra Opri filed a lawsuit at the County Superior Court in Los Angeles on Monday accusing her former client of slander during an appearance on the talk show “Larry King Live.”
