Perez vs. The Black Eyed Peas

Perez Hilton found himself in deep trouble last night at the Much Music Video Awards after parties in Toronto. After having angered Fergie by comments made on his website about the Black Eyed Peas’ new album, the pop star confronted Perez throughout the weekend, according to the blogger.

Things turned ugly yesterday when Will.I.Am approached Perez in Fergie's defense. In a video statement posted by Perez on his website this morning (check it out here), he explains that as Will.I.Am got too close to his face and demanded respect from Perez, the blogger “made the split second decision of saying the worst possible thing" he could say to the "thug" and responded, ‘You know what? I don’t need to respect you, you’re gay and stop being such a faggot!’”

The gossip diva says he quickly found himself an unexpected victim of physical retaliation, not by Will.I.Am, but by the Black Eyed Peas’ manager, Polo Molina, who allegedly punched Perez three times in the face following his exchange with Will.I.Am. Perez was in shock after the incident and at around 3 A.M he desperately tweeted, “I was assaulted by Will.I.Am of the Black Eyed Peas and his security guards. I am bleeding. Please, I need to file a police report. No joke,” after he had already contacted the police.

By this morning, both Perez and Will.I.Am had posted video statements defending their position. Perez posted a 12-minute account of what happened, complete with angry statements directed at Will.I.Am: “Will.I.Am is a coward and a disgusting human being for lying.” He also called Molina “shameful, disgusting and subhuman” before ending the video in tears.

Molina has already turned himself in to the Toronto police, and Perez continues to defend his side of the story. He has made it clear the he is confident that “the truth will come out.”

I totally dismiss Perez as a video blog cry baby. I saw the witness video footage (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lkLUQmuqNI) where Hilton gave Will.I.Am his unabashed hurling remarks, "You are not a fucking artist. You are a fucking faggot". First of all Will.I.Am is an artist. and um, he is not a "faggot". Speak facts boy. The video reveals Hilton has twisted the account of events to his liking. Perez tries to make himself look like the victim, as if he hadn't instigated. Looks like all his celebrity disses have hurled itself back into a 3-punch-fist-in-your face. Everyone knows Will.I.Am is no thug. Tupac would rise from his grave on that one. Perez is totally wrong for calling Fergie "fugly". Immature verbage from "Mr. I have ten million fans". I really don't know why anyone in their right mind pays Perez any attention. Perez takes civilization back to it's cave days. That fist punch was an attempt to bring him back to reality. Stop hurting people's feelings. Use constructive criticism. You can catch more honey that way.
yeah, i mean what did he expect when he calls someone a faggot. and why the heck is he using that word anyway? totally hypocritical...
I can't say that I feel sorry for Perez he has a big mouth and finally someone gave him what he's been long overdue for. Maybe he will learn to keep his mouth shut and think before he says something to offend someone, but knowing him he probaby didn't learn a thing from this.
