Courtney Love avoids trial, settles Twitter lawsuit
Courtney Love has settled a lawsuit with a fashion designer who claimed that Love had made false statements about her in a series of postings on Twitter and MySpace. Dawn Simorangkir sued Love alleging that the singer and actress had accused the designer of a criminal background in several 2009 Twitter postings. Simorangkir’s lawyer, Bryan J. Freedman told the Associated Press that his client settled for $430,000, but that Love’s lawyers had hoped to keep the details confidential. “In order to show the world the comments were derogatory and completely illegal, it was imperative to my client to have the settlement be public,” Freedman said.
Love confirmed the settlement and apologized, saying in a statement: “I am glad to have this behind us. I have always considered Dawn to be a talented designer. I am sorry for what happened. I sincerely wish her best.”

Katie Holmes files libel lawsuit against American Media Inc.
Katie Holmes’ rep has confirmed to EW that the actress has filed a libel lawsuit against American Media, Inc., in Los Angeles Tuesday. The suit claims Star Magazine — owned by American Media, Inc. — defamed Holmes by suggesting she is addicted to drugs in a recent cover story. (The headline: “Katie Drug Shocker.”) Holmes filed the lawsuit after American Media, Inc., declined her request to retract the story. Says Holmes in a statement: “Of all the fabricated stories that continue to be published about me, this instance is beyond the pale. The publisher knew this outrageous story was false and printed it anyway to sell magazines.”
American Media, Inc., has issued the following comment regarding the suit: “Star fully stands behind the editorial integrity of what we have published concerning Ms. Holmes’ controversial use of the Scientology ‘e-meter.’ The physical effect of the e-meter on its users is a matter of significant public concern and we plan to vigorously defend the suit filed by Ms. Holmes. Many ex-scientologists have testified that the e-meter sessions have mood elevating effects. The cover and the inside article discuss these effects. Our attorneys look forward to deposing Ms. Holmes about her experiences with Scientology and the e-meter, and expect that the case will be promptly dismissed by the court.“
