Teri Hatcher Fights Lawsuit in Court


Teri Hatcher tells "Extra" that a judge has called the insinuations from Hydroderm's lawsuit against her “character assassination” of the “worst kind.”

Yesterday, Hatcher filed a legal response after the cosmetic company filed a $2.8 million lawsuit. Hyrdroderm claims that Hatcher has breached her agreement by providing endorsement services to its competitors.

But Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Helen Bendix sided with Hatcher, denying Hydroderm early access to her business records.

“Extra” has obtained a statement from Hatcher’s representative stating, “Ms. Hatcher has not entered into any agreement with any other cosmetic or skincare companies or otherwise authorized or permitted any competitors of (Hydroderm) to use her name, likeness or celebrity in the promotion of products...Ms. Hatcher has done absolutely nothing wrong and has been ready, willing, able and eager to perform.”

Akon Charged After Tossing Fan Off Stage


Rapper Akon is facing criminal charges after tossing a teenager into the crowd during a concert. Another fan said she suffered a concussion when the teenager landed on her.

At the June concert, audience members said that a fan threw something on stage and Akon then asked the crowd to point out the culprit. He reportedly had a security guard take the 15-year-old on stage, where Akon promptly hoisted him onto his shoulders and flung him into the audience.

The boy landed on another fan, who reportedly has hired a lawyer.

Danny Bonaduce Won't Be Charged with Battery


Danny Bonaduce won’t be charged with battery stemming from his shocking caught-on-tape brawl with Jonny Fairplay.

Though Fairplay filed a formal complaint – after some teeth were reportedly knocked out – the Los Angeles district attorney investigated the incident and decided there wasn’t enough evidence to charge Bonaduce with a crime.

According to papers filed by the DA, "It did not appear that the suspect intentionally tried to cause injuries, but simply reacted to the victim's actions."

During Tuesday’s taping of the Fox Reality Channel Really Awards, Fairplay jumped on Bonaduce and wrapped his legs around him. In reaction, Bonaduce tossed him backwards and Fairplay landed on his face.
