Celebrity Justice
Dark Night for Batman Director's Ex

Posted Aug 6th 2008 7:18PM by TMZ Staff

Tim Burton has finally knocked the wind out of his ex-fiancee.

We've learned the California Court of Appeal has just put the kibosh on Lisa Marie's palimony lawsuit. She sued the famed director, alleging that he strong-armed her into accepting more than $5.5 million to walk away from the relationship.

In true Britney style, Lisa Marie (not Presley) said, "Gimme More." She sued Burton, who directed "Batman" and "Edward Scissorhands," but today the court said the case should be dismissed. It had been scheduled to go to trial next week.

Barring a Hail Mary, she will get no more fabulous parting gifts.

3. Why should a live-in lover get anything? If this were a man, he would have gotten nothing.

6. Anybody got Lisa Marie's number? I'd love to suck those hooters of hers. Way, way foxier than Helena Bonham Carter - who I'm sure is a cool broad, but she just doesn't register on the ol' scrotum pole.

8. TYPICAL GREEDY BITCH. SOME WOMEN JUST CAN'T LET GO, THEY HAVE A PITBULL MENTALITY. SHE PROBABLY SPENT THE $5.5 MILLION ALREADY -- ON BAD MAKEUP AND HAIR PRODUCTS, AND DRUGS.

12. I used to like Lisa Marie. Now she's showing she's a bitter, vindictive gold-digger. Five million dollars isn't enough? Bitch, please.

Lisa Marie is pissed off Tim Burton dumped her for an actress who has actual talent, and a career not based on her BOYFRIEND supporting her for 10 years.

14. Come on get over it he's been with Helena Bonham Carter since 2001. She must have run out of money.

15. Let me get this straight...this chick was in a relationship with Tim Burton, and he gave her $5.5 Million to set her up for life when the relationship ended. And the stupid bitch sued him for more? What a money grubbing gold digging bitch. Good for the judge for dismissing this ridiculous BS suit; I'm glad he bitch slapoed her...
