Teri Hatcher Sued By Former Employee
According to her former employee and friend, Jennifer Glassman, Teri Hatcher is a liar - and she's suing her for it!
Glassman claims that Teri convinced her to quit her PR job to become Vice President of her production company, which included 50% of the profits.
But she made some classic mistakes! Not only did Jennifer not get the agreement in writing, but she signed a blank contract as a "formality," which gave Teri the right to fire her at will. And she did!
Glassman claims that she was extremely competent AND forced to deal with Teri's "mood swings and unusual requests," including scheduling doctors' appointments, party planning, researching vacation arrangements and hiring a dog trainer.
The employee is claiming fraud, intentional deceit, wrongful termination and emotional distress. Teri even fired her a few months before getting a check for the launch of a website supported by Disney. And Jennifer claims she had a huge part in creating it!
Teri's rep, Brad Cafarelli, said:
The lawsuit is a "ridiculous fabrication. It is unfortunate that the many opportunities Ms. Hatcher afforded the former employee are now being so implausibly twisted and contorted." Teri and Disney will fight the suit and nail Glassman with "substantial counterclaims … for her reckless and premeditated misconduct on her departure."
Sounds like something Teri would do! Who do U believe?!

In this day and age one always gets everything in writing. This sounds tooooo fishy. It sounds like Teri had a personal assistant that wanted a bigger piece of the pie. By the way, she works for Marc Cherry so of course, she will have mood swings. lol
what's unusual about scheduling doctors' appointments, party planning, researching vacation arrangements and hiring a dog trainer? not that I care for Terri Hatcher but this Jennifer girl sounds a bit fame hungry………….
team glassman; although it was dumb to not get things spelled out in writing.
Teri Hatcher is a hooker. Another "star" who thinks they can treat regular people/employees like shit. Thankfully her shit TV show is almost over! Glassman, sue the trash for at LEAST 10 million.
Glassman signed a "blank" contract? Stupid move, and doubt this case will go forward. It will likely be dismissed by judge.
I have heard some horrible Terri Hatcher stories.
ummm I've dealt with teri before and, well lets just say I believe everything this lady is saying. teri is crazy and needs medication. I think a lot of people in hollywood are crazy because they starve themselves and there isnt enough nourishment getting to their ittty bitty brains.
Can't stand Terri Hatcher. Miserable cow!
50% OF THE PROFITS????? Why would ANYONE, and I mean anyone who has not put any money into the company, is not the name of the company, COLLECT 50% OF THE PROFITS???? She was a personnal assistant. She has the experience of a PR person, that could mean something or nothing, because PR covers a large range of things. I think she is full of it and NO ONE works high up without a contract and a boss should be able to fire an employee that is not working up to par. And if she is as competent as she says she is, she should be snatched up by one of the many people she came into contact with. Maybe someone else needs dog poop picked up badly.
Im with Teri. Sounds like yet another hanger-on wanting a bigger piece of the pie.
Teri is a bitch, thats what you get for working with her dear.
and also is there any Aussies here, do u remember Bookworm, that worm thing that was on some kids show years ago, i swear she looks exactly like it!
i wish i could find a picture but i cant remember the name of the show
Glassman claims she was extremely competent. Honey, competentcy is getting it in writing on the dotted line in a timely manner. Cover your ass, and you'll have no problems you can't sue and win for.
