Bradley Cooper Sacre Bleu, I Must Sue French Mag ... Over Irina Shayk
Bradley Cooper's relationship with supermodel Irina Shayk is nobody's business -- at least in France, according to a lawsuit the actor just filed against a magazine there.
Cooper's gunning for Oops! magazine over its May 28 story declaring ... "L'amour au grand jour" ... which loosely translates to ... love out in the open.
In the lawsuit, filed by French legal eagle Vincent Tolédano ... Cooper says he's never spoken publicly about dating Shayk, so the story violates his right, under French law, to a "private life."
It sounds weird in this country, but Bradley might have a case in France where celebrities are treated more like your average Pierre ... at least when it comes to privacy. He's suing Oops! for 11,000 euros.
Interestingly, Tolédano just filed a similar lawsuit for Leonardo DiCaprio against the same magazine for its cover story claiming he knocked up Rihanna.
Oops! tells us it has no idea why Cooper is suing, since their story is based on photos that ran in a Spanish magazine. In fact, those same photos were also everywhere in the U.S.

'Queen of Versailles' Family Victoria Was Cyberbullied Right Before Death

Exclusive Details
- 2K shares
Victoria Siegel was the victim of vicious cyberbullying ... which her family believes pushed her over the edge and ultimately might have led to her death.
The Siegel family says the ex-girlfriend of Victoria's boyfriend (who we're told she met in rehab) had been sending "hateful text messages" to Victoria. They say the texts were coming from the BF's phone, and our sources say it was also happening on social media.
The family says Victoria got one of the bullying texts the morning of her death, and adds ... "While we cannot be sure, [the messages] may have affected her emotional state at a time when she was emotionally vulnerable."
We're told the family does not believe Victoria intended to kill herself ... because they were taking a family cruise this week, and Victoria rushed to get her passport in time for the trip. Instead, they're leaning toward an accidental overdose ... possibly triggered by the bullying.
It's unclear if the family has reached out to the ex-girlfriend. The Orange County Sheriff's Office tells us the girl is not part of their investigation into Victoria's death.

Miranda Cosgrove Stalker Goes Cyber Ordered Off Social Media
The man convicted of stalking Miranda Cosgrove got a big break when the psych hospital where he was confined gave him a pass to leave for a few days ... and guess what he went and did?
Joshua Stockton got a furlough a week ago ... it was a reward for good behavior. We're told he went to his parents' home but almost immediately jumped on the computer and started contacting Miranda's friends trying to find out anything he could about the actress.
Miranda's friends told her they were contacted and she immediately got in touch with authorities.
Stockton's in trouble, because he was ordered in October to stay 100 yards away from Miranda and not to contact anyone for the purpose of harassing her.
Stockton was hauled into court and the judge ordered him to stay off all social media for a year. The judge also said one more misstep and he was going to prison for 4 years.
Stockton's back in the psych facility.

Marisa Miller Burned Us Badly Says Fake N' Bake Co.
Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Marisa Miller might be a smoke show in a bikini, but she blows as a spokesperson ... according to the company that handed her nearly $2 mil to pimp their tanning goods.
Marisa scored a sweet deal with Glissin -- they forked over $1.8 million, and she was supposed to become their queen of all things bronzed ... hawking tanning salons, tanning lotions and sprays, and develop her own line of products bearing her name.
According to docs, the company says Miller stiffed them on almost everything. Instead of doing 7 print ads, a behind-the-scenes video of a photo shoot, and numerous media appearances -- all the buxom model provided was a 30 second video (below), and ONE Facebook/Twitter post.
The company says Marisa couldn't even show her famous face, butt, or boobs at a Glissin salon in L.A. -- which she recommended they open.
Glissin is suing Miller and her management company -- run by her husband -- for all the cash they paid her ... plus more than a mil they laid out for expenses during the failed deal.
Not at dispute -- Marisa is a dime-piece in that one ad she did.

Snoop Dogg Colt 45 Doesn't Work Every Time! Someone Owes Me Money
Forget gin and juice ... Snoop Dogg has a huge deal to promote Colt 45 now, but says someone forgot to pay him, so he's suing their asses.
Snoop signed an endorsement deal in 2011 to promote Colt 45's fruit-flavored malt beverage, Blast. In a new lawsuit filed Monday, Snoop claims part of the deal was he would get 10% of the sale price if Pabst Brewing Co. ever sold off Colt 45.
Cut to 2014 ... when Oasis beverages swallowed up Pabst, and the C45 brand in a $700 million deal.
In the suit, Snoop says he never got his cut, so he's demanding his 10% share of the Colt 45 portion of that deal.
A rep for Pabst tells TMZ, "We have not been contacted by Snoop Dogg or his representatives about this issue. We are investigating the matter and would be happy to talk to Snoop or his representatives to try to get to the bottom of this."

NFL's Ray McDonald Rape Accuser Gets Victory ... In Defamation Case
The woman who claims she was raped by former NFL player Ray McDonald just got a huge win in court -- because the judge has THROWN OUT the defamation lawsuit McDonald had filed against her.
McDonald had sued the woman back in March claiming the accuser LIED when she told police he raped her at his home back in December in a diabolical plot to ruin his NFL career.
The woman had claimed she hit her head when she fell at Ray's pool -- and didn't remember having sex with him. Ray denied any wrongdoing and claimed the sex was consensual.
But moments ago, the judge ruled that the woman had only reported her story to the police -- and no one else -- and is therefore protected by the 1st Amendment.
The judge tossed McDonald's lawsuit against her -- and ordered that McDonald pay the accuser's legal fees related to the defamation suit.
The accuser's attorney, Gloria Allred, was thrilled with the ruling -- saying, "NFL players and other celebrities should now understand that suing persons for defamation who allege to law enforcement that they are victims of crime by NFL players or others will be a losing strategy."

Leo DiCaprio Sues I Didn't Knock Up Rihanna
Leonardo DiCaprio may be dating Rihanna, and he's most likely even banging Rihanna -- but he absolutely did not get her pregnant ... according to a lawsuit he's filed against a French magazine.
Leo filed the suit against Oops! for its May 28 cover story ... which declares that Leo knocked up RiRi, and will not recognize the baby as his. In the docs, Leo's lawyer calls the story "pure fantasy."
Here's what's odd -- sources close to Leo tell TMZ ... his team recently contacted Oops! and informed the people running the magazine that the story was false. We're told the mag's response went something like ... yeah, we know and we don't care -- except in French.
One source tells us it's almost like the magazine wanted to be sued, possibly just to gain publicity.
In the suit -- first reported by Gossip Cop -- Leo is demanding Oops! fork over 18,000 euros (about $20,000) in damages and attorney fees. That amount is the maximum allowed under French law.

Ex Voice of 'Charlie Brown' Goes Berserk in Court ... I Hope You Drop Dead, Judge!!
Get ready to hear Charlie Brown curse like a sailor, and wish death on a judge -- the former voice of the cartoon character went absolutely NUTS during a San Diego court hearing.
Peter Robbins was going to be sentenced for probation violations on Friday -- but suddenly went off on the judge, the prosecutor, and his public defender.
Robbins -- who voiced Charlie Brown for several TV specials in the 60s -- was convicted in 2013 for threatening an ex-gf and her plastic surgeon ... but in court he demanded a new trial, and simply lost it on his ex.
He screamed, ironically ... "She has to believe that I would kill her. I wouldn't kill her! I have never had any violent behavior!!" Robbins also barked at the judge, "Good luck to you! I hope you drop dead of a heart attack."
Not shockingly, the judge ordered a mental exam for Robbins. Prosecutors say he violated probation by drinking booze, and cutting off his ankle monitor.

Jill and Jessa told FOX News' Megyn Kelly their parents put locks on the girls' bedroom doors and on the boys' rooms.

Jessa pointed a finger at the legal system and cops in their hometown -- just as her parents did -- but TMZ broke the story ... authorities followed the law.
