Perez Hilton has been doing what he does for a long time now; 12 years in fact. No stranger to a little controversy, Perez is back at it, feuding with no other than Angelina Jolie, it seems.
News broke recently that Angelina had set her lawyers on Perez Hilton “When they broke up, I released a video and I was crying authentic, legitimate tears.
“What they had issue with was an article we published saying at the time, Angelina Jolie was not letting Brad Pitt see the kids, like immediately after the split. We believed that to be true at the time. If I thought that was not accurate, I would not have published it. “In America, that’s the law, you have to truly believe what you’re publishing is true.”

“My real issue, was instead of sending a lawyer to me, saying that I have caused her harm, suggesting not just that I take it down, but that I put something new up, apologising, I would have preferred that her publicist approached me, or even a lawyer with a different tactic, saying that it wasn’t true. A more kind and thought-out approach.”
“They didn’t just want it taken down, they wanted a new piece apologising. I responded in a very dramatic, OTT way.” @PerezHilton #KJshow pic.twitter.com/1l83Wd4RFA

“So instead of being afraid of them – and here’s where I like to get real honest with you guys – before replying, I didn’t just instantly reply, I sat down for a minute and thought, ‘okay what I did was right, I’m protected under the law, and secondly, is Angelina Jolie REALLY going to sue me? Most likely not.
“So then I just responded back in a very dramatic, over-the-top, old Perez way. I’m not necessarily proud of the way I responded, but I said, ‘I want an apology from YOU, blank blank blank blank blank!”
