Celebrity Justice
Birkhead Not Fan-TAB-u-lous -- Lawsuit Imminent

Larry BirkheadIf you believe the tabloids, Larry Birkhead is a deadbeat, IRS-defrauding, shoplifting, child-abandoning, secretly gay man who parties 'til the wee hours of the morning with beautiful women, impregnating some of them. A slew of tabloid stories have been adorning supermarket checkout lines this week, and we've learned Birkhead has had enough.

TMZ has confirmed that Birkhead hired ferocious celebrity lawyer Marty Singer to sue some of the tabs for defamation of character.

We're told Birkhead has told Singer that a few tabs have lashed out at him because he sealed a deal with OK! magazine to publish the first pics of daddy with Dannielynn. OK! paid dearly for those pics and the money is going into a trust account for the baby.

16. Lets just give custody to Howard, the only decent one in the group who really cares for dannylynn and certainly loved anna nichole.

17. Larry, sue the crap out of all these rag-magazines. Ignore some of the ignorant trailer-trash comments on this site. These people, probably dont even have jobs and live next to Virgie.

Just keep Virgie far, far way from your daughter. Virgie is a dried up old-whore. Your daughter is too precious to be around her.

18. So,,, everyone has a problem with Grandma, but so far she is the ONLY one, who hasn't sold a story, sold pictures of the baby, acted like an ass. Maybe she's right to try and keep baby Dannilynn. Those men are both bastards, exploiting a baby like that. Birkhead, I thought was the nice one of the bunch.. Just goes to show ya...

19. KARMA WILL KICK YOU IN THE ASS EVERYTIME! You should not have been so aggressive with anna after daniel's death. TABLOIDS HAVE BEEN RIGHT LATELY-THEY DON'T PRINT UNLESS THEY HAVE PROOF NOWDAYS! MAKES YOU WONDER! I ALSO WONDER IF EVIL O'QUINN AND VIRGIE ARE BEHIND THIS?

20. That baby does not need money put in a trust for her. She's a multi-million dollar baby!!!
Leave the man alone, he with his daughter doing what he's suppose to do, trying to be daddy!

21. So LB can probably show proof that the $ for the pics went into trust
Can HKS show the same?
I would ask them both
Someone is making sure this gets nasty and that VA and LB sound horrible
HMMMM I wonder who would do such a thing?????

22. Said one paparazzi to the other!!! Larry sold stories to the rag papers, I am sure, problably owes a favor and he nicked them! I would 'nt be surprised if all the hoes that he went to bed with won't come out of the woodwork looking for a pay day.He will have to go through "whose your baby's daddy"? all over again. Maybe that is why Vergie and custody ,just in case Larry has to do some time for IRS, which I hope not. This is a cruel, cruel world we live in!

24. GIVE ME A BREAK!! this is why all these kids grow up and have problems, comon give this man a chance! he is steping up to be this childs father. this is why so many men dont take responsibilty. people grow up, this is why these kids grow up al;one and confused. and go on shooting sprees in our classrooms. they grow up and if they have messed up parents everyone alienates them, Give this little girl a chance, as for howard, he seems to be an enabler, and believe me. i know one, i lived with my huisband for 15 yrs, who told me i was doing valium. when it was herion! and i was an addict for 10 yrs, thanks to the one who loved me so much. he died when he was at work. crossing the street at a job site.thank GOD i met someone who really loved me and got me to see what i was doing to myself and family. i didnt see any of howards family with him.

25. #15~~Teri, the only reason vergie hasn't slod anything yet is because she don't have anything to sell. She don't have any pictures of the baby cause see can't see her. Just wait until she can see her and you will see Vergie sell anything she can get her hands on!

26. Go get them Larry!!! Funny how all this stuff is coming out now. The timing is suspicious. I smell Vergie all over this.

27.
The problem is with the people who buy these tabloid rags!! Birkhead, like Brangelina, secure a high price for exclusive pics, thereby making rogue papparazzi pics much less valuable. Takes the bounty off these kids heads. Yet they are repeatedly called 'sellouts' when the money is going to charity or trusts.
These are win-win situations for everyone BUT the rogue photogs who are screwed out of alot of money (as they should be) and the tabloid rags that want to print misleading and false stories.

I, for one, applaud these celebs who have found a veritable loophoole in the celebrity-picture biz!

28. Teri I agree with you but only with respect to Larry..he is the father and he is acting like an true idiot. Not surprised by his tactics..they have worked so far..Larry the victim..poor Larry I feel so sorry for the looser.
