Samantha Ronson Pays $86K to Perez
ODuran/Fame Pictures
Samantha Ronson can scratch this lawsuit off her set list.
On Friday, gossip blogger Perez Hilton received a big fat check from Lindsay Lohan's gal-pal for nearly $87,000 to cover his legal fees from a failed libel lawsuit.
In July 2007, the celebrity DJ sued Perez (aka Mario Lavandeira) for defamation after he reported that she owned the cocaine found in Lilo's car after a May 2007 crash. A judge threw out the case in January 2008 and ruled that Ronson had to pay for Hilton's legal fees, which she hadn't done up until now.
By paying the $86,832, SamRo avoids a court hearing on Monday to discuss how she was going to pay.
