I saw this story in my newsfeed and came here because the OT is a better source of information.

So you really are saying this is a hazard of the job and she shouldn't be compensated at all?



I did not contend that she should not be compensated "at all," no.

It is ridiculous because everyone on Earth would consent to allow themselves to be filmed walking around naked in a hotel room in exchange for a check for $55,000,000.


And I'll bet any amount of money that you're a man and not a celebrity. Of course you would consent to have yourself filmed naked - so would I. But women are generally wired differently, and you could tell from the testimony that this was traumatic. I doubt she would have exchanged a naked video of herself for $55 million, even if she knew in advance.

Are you saying having a guy drill out the keyhole on your door and film you getting undressed is a part of her job?


I have faith that you understand the baggage that comes along with being a huge celebrity, so whatever semantics debate you want to get into, I decline, good sir.

That she somehow had this coming because she ia on TV for a living?


I don't know the probability of something as egregious as this for any major celebrity, but it would be far fetched to call it "unlikely." Do I think she "had it coming?" I don't know how to answer that question better than I have a few times already. Do I think she deserved it? Of course not.

bullshite.

Maybe I'm just cynical but even if she only gets the check for the hotel's liability, it is generational money.

What's the going rate for other "celebs"?

For 55m they might as well release the HD version with deleted scenes.

How much did DiCaprio get paid to do the Revenant? Nowhere near 55m

How much would the ATT chick get?

They gave the creep her room # and gave him the room next to her? What if he had been a rapist/murderer?

Good for her.

I have to agree with this right here. I've seen too many women subjected to this kind of indecent behavior by men and it's outright disturbing.

In retard Puritan America, nakedness is waaaay more dangerous than violence or death. Besides, the damn video was fuzzy and useless for fapping. I get that it embarrassed her but it didn't embarrass her $55M. That's absurd.

You're right, Families don't usually get that kind of money in a wrongful death suit.

I'm still not buying the BS, that Hogan didn't know.

Him and his buddy, Fatass Bubba, are thick as thieves when it came to slimy, trying to make a fast buck shite.

Same could be asked of OJ and wrongful death suit?


Karma was served on O.J. as a result of that wrongful death lawsuit. The lawsuit and the verdict are why he's in prison now.

He tried to hide his assets (sports trophys) from his bankruptcy estate -- a bankruptcy estate brought about because of the lawsuit.

He then committed armed robbery trying to get back those fraudulently hidden assets saying that the people whom he conspired with to hide those assets had stolen them from him.

He got 33 years for the armed robbery.

Seriously. One would think, for $55M, she was filmed with an anal creampie. It was a fuzzy crappy video that, if you weren't told, you wouldn't even know it was her.
