Paris Hilton’s $35mm hair lawsuit is dropped
Bosses at a hair extensions company have dropped a multi-million dollar legal battle with Paris Hilton after admitting their claims were “not accurate”.
Executives at HairTech International Inc. sued the heiress for $35 million (£23 million) last summer (Aug10) over claims she reneged on her endorsement deal to promote their 2007 Dream Catchers range.
They alleged she failed to promote the collection and skipped a launch party after she was jailed for a probation violation, and even amended the lawsuit in December (10) to claim Paris in fact cost them a staggering $70 million (£47 million).
And Paris is pleased with the outcome, saying, “It is certainly not unusual for businesspeople to have their disagreements, but I am glad that Chris has acknowledged the hard work and dedication I put into promoting his products.”
Company boss Chris Volek says in a statement, “The information I received from others and on which I based the lawsuit was not accurate.”
The reality TV star, who filed a countersuit against HairTech, has now confirmed the legal dispute has come to an end after Volek admitted many of the claims were incorrect.
Paris Hilton denies any money was paid for the lawsuit to be dropped.
I absolutly love paris just for the simple reason that she can make money out of anything even hair extensions GREAT.
