De La Hoya Stripper Won't Get in the Ring!

Posted Feb 15th 2008 4:51PM by TMZ Staff

In the Dept. of Legal Showboating: The stripper suing boxing champ Oscar De La Hoya for $100 million showed up to court today to begin her case, and duly offered a full photo op in front of the courthouse.

But get this -- when it came time to start the actual proceedings, Milana Dravnel got a case of nerves and couldn't bring herself to walk into the courtroom. And Oscar didn't even show!

Her lawyer, Salvatore Strazzullo, tells TMZ she was "too nervous" to face the federal court judge, even though very little went down. De La Hoya's legal team requested arbitration, and that's about it.

Dravnel wants $100 million from De La Hoya for defamation, after he claims she fabricated photos showing him wearing women's lingerie in a Philly hotel. They're due back in court May 2.

7. I think Oscar deserves it. He played and now he's going to pay. Can you imagine being exposed like he was? He's got to be embarrased to say the least. I can't imagine all the ribbing he's gotten over this.

14. Judging by the pics, I think that he liked her a lot. I bet she likes him to, and was hoping he would show, and when he didn't she was heartbroken and went home. Such a twirp. THAT's what happens when you take chances with married men!
