Perez vs. Will.I.Am -- CAUGHT ON TAPE

Posted Jun 22nd 2009 2:15PM by TMZ Staff

TMZ has just obtained video footage of the heated confrontation between Perez Hilton and Will.I.Am -- in which Perez can clearly be heard calling the Black Eyed Pea a "f**king f*ggot."



The footage begins in the middle of the verbal altercation outside an after-party for a music award show in Toronto -- moments after Hilton claims Will went after him like a "heat-seeking missile" and unleashed a verbal tirade at him.

With a crowd surrounding Perez, Will and Will's manager, Polo -- the guys argue back and forth for about a minute, until Perez tells Will, "you're not a f**king artist ... you're a f**king f*ggot."

The scene suddenly turns chaotic -- and in the mess someone punches Perez in the face.

On a video blog on his website, Hilton claims Will's manager hit him "two or three times."

Will also posted a video blog saying he never hit anyone.

17. I hope GLAAD issues a press release for Perez Hilton to apologize to the Gay community for using that word as thought it was "DEGRADING" word. I'm offended.

19. WOW. How utterly ironic. The Ms. America judge who called a contestant the C-word b/c she didn't support gay marriage is now throwing around phrases like "f-cking f-ggot" (and I think we're quite sure that Perez Hilton is gay himself, yes?!) What a f-cking hypocrite. Typical Hollywood liberal talking out of both sides of their mouths. He is such a f-cking idiot.

20. Just like I thought. PerezHilton is not as innocent as he's pretending to be.

Oh, well. I still like him and will check out his stuff.

22. Seems to me that Perez is a liar. 1st he tweets that Will.i.am assaults him, then says it was someone else and that he 'wished
Will.i.am did it? It's b.s. anyway you cut it.

23. No. 12 - ARE YOU SERIOUS?!?!?!? Why should he apologize? The truth is - this is the real world. People are gonna get offended by a lot of things. The trick is to be the bigger person & leave it alone. If someone call you something that YOU KNOW YOU'RE NOT, why get all huffy about it? Sticks & Stones Man - Sticks & Stones.....

26. I wish he would just die already. Please go away forever Perez. How on earth did he become famous? No talent douche bag.

27. Black people always have a hard time controlling their anger just by default, so I'm going to say Will.i.Am is the guilty one here without even watching the video.

28. Seriously...after creating all of the drama over gay rights and Carrie Prejean he uses f******* f***** as the biggest insult he could hurl at someone? This coming from a supposed gay rights activist? Mario clearly has emotional problems, he reminds me of Susan Boyle, forever 12.

29. Perez can only WISH that Will came at him with HIS heat seeking missle. lol!

30. I stopped reading perezhilton.com a long time ago because he wasn't funny and in every post he acted like he was on a mission to destroy the career of whoever he was writing about. I thought one of these days someone is gonna hit because of how vicious he can be about people. Well it happened and he uses the same slur that Isiah used causing him to campaign so hard to get him fired. Does this mean we need to campaign for a boycott of his blog? Still won't read it, btw.
