Celebrity Justice
Hatcher Fires Back at "Outrageous" Lawsuit

Teri HatcherA day after being sued by a skin care company for allegedly breaking her contract, Teri Hatcher is calling out the company's mismanagement and threatening legal action of her own.

Hatcher's legal reps issued a statement today that reads:

"The allegations of this lawsuit are totally false and completely without merit. Despite having to deal with a frustrating series of changes in the ownership and management of Hydroderm over the last several years, Teri Hatcher has more than fully complied with all of her contractual obligations over the course of the relationship.

Clearly, Hydroderm has embarked on this unjustified and public assault on Teri Hatcher's name, reputation and celebrity in a transparent effort to distract from its own failure to live up to its end of the agreement. Ms. Hatcher will respond swiftly and decisively by appropriate legal means to recover everything she is owed under her contract, as well as compensatory and punitive damages for Hydroderm's outrageous accusations; however, she will not litigate this matter in the press, as Hydroderm apparently seeks to do."

The company is looking to recoup the $2.4 mil they paid Hatcher, plus $400,000 in additional expenses.

17. To "The Player" ... and all the other horrible, stupid, pathetic losers filled with hate and meanness, Teri Hatcher is not old and she is not a grandma. Teri Hatcher did her best to make it in this horrible business and she was about to open a muffin factory when DH finally realized she had talent and ability. She's a beautiful woman and she is now successful and a lot of people care about her -- a lot more than care about "Player" -- which is exactly what I am sure you/it/he/she is. Why don't you people get lives? (Oh, I know: because you don't have any.)

18. Just wondering what of a person it takes to write something like, quote, "Teri Hatcher is old and no one cares about her grandma ass anymore."

I do.

19. Tough luck Terri! I am going to become the new face of Hydroderm. I've been using it for years!

20. Hydroderm sucks, don't waste your money. And by the way, if you happen to have to send it back for a refund, make sure you do all you can to track your package, best bet would be to fedex. This co. will have no record of your return unless you take any and all measures to make your package trackable, and require a signature.

21. Rex, Teri has turned into a plastic looking hag because of starving herself and blowing up her lips with collagen injections and using too much Botox. If the truth hurts so much, Rex, go rub some dirt on it and then get your eyes examined.

22. Hydroderm is pure crap, real trash, it does not work. How do I know. I brought a bunch of bottles of that stuff off EBAY. I believe all the lies about it. I used it for a couple of months. It dried out any area I put that stuff on my face and made it worst, it did harm to my face. I look like a monster, face all puff out and dried out. Ponds cold cream got my face back to normal in a couple of days and better. And Ponds is about a 10th of the cost of rip off Hydroderm. Anything you hear about how great Hydroderm is nothing but lies. I thought of reselling the bottles I had left back on ebay or giving them away, but I did not want to hurt anybody, so I threw them out. What I have said here is the truth, I am sure a lot of people will agree with me.

23. Hydroderm is a ripoff company. They lure you in and send $100 bottle to you every month even after you ask them to stop. See Ripoff.com. I hope she countersues for plenty.

26. There's a lot of people with some serious issues here that deal with age. Here's hoping someone copies all the nastiness/sickness you post and presents it to each of you on your 40th birthday. Bet it will make your day.

27. Hey mom, the ones not dealing with age are the desperate youth junkies like Teri who are using Botox and plastic surgery and anorexia to try to look 20 and skinny forever. Actresses are so afraid of looking 40, mom, they ruin their looks with surgery and Botox and starvation and end up looking even older than they are. So why bag on us, WE are the ones disgusted with the desperate actresses that can't deal with aging. You are a hypocrite, mom, get pi$$ed at the actresses that are doing so much damage to women by resorting to plastic surgery and anorexia and other youth-defying measures trying to make people think they aren't aging.

28. i have never used hydroderm. i am not a fan of terri hathcher's...i have no opinion on the skincare or the actress but what i have noticed the most about the comments on tmz-is that people love to trash every thing posted on the site. i am not trying to get into a war with the people posting on this site-in fact-i wont even respond to the comments generated by my post..probably wont even read them-but i think tmz needs to edit these comments because there are some sick puppies out there that are ready to trash every article posted on here. so many without any merit. tmz you need to stop the stupid posts from people. i just keep thinking of a bumper sticker that said " mean people suck" and it's true. get a life and quit trashing everything around you.

29. WTH happened to her eyes? She didn't look like this when she was on Seinfeld and in that Superman TV show. I realize that's been awhile ago, but what has happened to her face is NOT natural. Her one eye looks like it's making a break for it to the back of her head.

30. SO IS EVERYONE WHO POSTED COMMENTS ON PAGE 1 EMPLOYEES OF THE HYDRODERM? If so I think its sad that a co. would have someone post such crap & it's probably the same person, just changing their name each time they post another comment. Why else would someone that has nothing to do w/ this co. say such negative crap. GROW UP LOSERS. She was broke for so many years & about lost her home, so you know during that time she probably didn't have the extra money to get facials & continue to buy all the expensive skin care so more than likely when she got back to working again & making money again she probably went a little overboard. She still looks fine & as long as shes happy thats all that matters. Leave her along
