Perez Hilton calls will.i.am a "faggot", gets punched in the face

- Police have charged the tour manager of the Black Eyed Peas with assault after he allegedly gave celebrity blogger Perez Hilton a black eye outside a Toronto nightclub.

Hilton said he got into an argument with band members Fergie and will.i.am at the Cobra nightclub early Monday morning and was punched outside by Polo Molina, the band's tour manager. They were at the club following a Sunday night video awards show.

Molina turned himself in and has been charged with assaulting Hilton, Toronto Police Constable Tony Vella said. Molina is due in court Aug. 5.

Hilton, whose real name is Mario Lavandeira, complained about the incident on the microblogging site Twitter. He tweeted at 4 a.m.: "I am bleeding. Please, I need to file a police report. No joke."

Hilton, who is openly gay, said in interview with The Associated Press that he called will.i.am a "faggot," a gay slur, inside the club after the musician told the blogger not to write about his band on his Web site.

"He was like 'You need to respect me.' He was in my face. He was obviously trying to intimidate me and scare me," Hilton said. "I was like 'I don't need to respect you. I don't respect you and I did say this, and I knew that it would be the worst thing I could possibly say to him because he was acting the way he was. I said 'You know what, I don't respect you and you're gay and stop being such a faggot.'"

Hilton, who was at the club with Lady Gaga, said he then left the club and was punched from behind. The pop stars and the blogger were among celebrities in Toronto for the MuchMusic Video Awards on Sunday night. ... Read full article »

    Who cares! Only "victims" are allowed to be violent and call people names without recrimination.

    Mr. Lavandeira (or Hilton as he prefers) is a dolt. An insult to the gay community to say the least. If he's so proud of who he is, he should work harder to be a better representative of his community. I don't see why people listen to them, but because they do, he should take his responsibility as a man often in the spotlight with a little more care and respectability.

    I'm gay and it disgusts me that he gets the publicity and America sees him as what Gay people are like.
    There are a lot of regular Gay people out here who are your
    friends, co-workers, and relatives. I know that not all straight people can accept us....but they don't accept all of anyone else either.-------In any case this guy is an obnoxious loser.

    I think Perez Hilton should be punched out every time he steps out of his house.

    It seem Perez Hiton is out of control. He thinks he is much bigger than he really is. To me is a vile human being. We need to just shut him off. Most of the population does not even know who this creep is.
