Silly lawsuit department

Something like 80% of lawsuits are settled before they ever come near a court. Presumably this one is going to get settled, or the judge is going to toss it:

Now, in what must be a first for Hollywood, someone is actually suing to get INTO a celebrity magazine.

Meet US Weekly's first reverse-stalker.

Fraser Ross is the owner of Kitson, a Beverly Hills boutique that outfits Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan and other young Hollywood stars, not to mention busloads of status-conscious civilians who crave the store's giraffe bracelets, purple-alligator watches and "Everybody Pretend to Be Normal" T-shirts.

Ross' lawsuit claims that the New York-based celebrity weekly is intentionally omitting his shop from its pages. And he wants the courts to - do what? Take over the US Weekly assignment desk?

Damnit. Despite all my attempt the Chicago Tribune still has not publicly delcared my ass the most Juicy-Sweet in all of Chicagoland.

Time to take it to the courts.
