A New Statement from Perez Hilton
Filed under: Gay Gay Gay > Personally Perez > Sad SadFrom the heart:
"Words can hurt. I know that very well, from both sides of the fence. The other night in Toronto, after feeling physically threatened by a verbally abusive Will.I.Am of the Black Eyed Peas, I chose the most hurtful word I know to hurl at him. I was in an out-of-the ordinary situaton and used a word that I would not utter under normal circumstances. My intention - however misguided it may have been - was to stand up for myself and tell this belligerent man that I had enough of his badgering and was not going to continue to let him berate and intimidate me. I wanted to hurt him with the word I chose, not anyone else. Unfortunately, the one who got hurt was me and, subsequently, a lot of other people. I wish none of it had happened. I can't take it back. I did what I thought was best at the moment to stand up for myself in a non-violent yet still assertive way. Clearly, I am not homophobic. Also, I am not nor have I ever claimed to be a spokesperson for the gay community. I am just speaking for myself, a gay man. One who is labeled "flamboyant" in the media. An American that is not granted equal rights under the law. I will continue to speak out for equality and I will continue to say things that upset both gay people and straight people. Who I am as a person and what I do for a living are two separate things. I've come to terms with all my incongruities and am proud of who I am and what I do. In closing, words can hurt. But words should not provoke someone to violence. Stripped away from the mask of Perez Hilton, I have been extremely bothered by the public reaction to my assault. Violence should never be condoned with such statements as "It's Karma" or "I don't believe in violence but….". In fact, several television and radio shows over the past couple of days echoed the sentiment "He had it coming". Would they have said the same thing if I was a woman? Would I have "deserved it" if I had been stabbed? Or shot? Or killed? I was attacked from behind without warning and repeatedly punched in the head in a cold, disgusting and unnecessarily violent manner by Polo Molina, the road manager for the Black Eyed Peas, who I did not even speak with that evening. I did not share any words with him and his assault on me was completely unprovoked. I feel like everything happens for a reason and I leave this traumatic experience as a person with more compassion. Specifically, there was an instance last year when actor Jesse Metcalfe was attacked outside of a Hollywood nightclub by a fellow entertainer. I did not condone the violence, but I did make light of that situation. I regret that. Sincerely. There are many ways to deal with disagreements, both good and bad, but violence is never the answer. Never. I now know that first-hand. It should not be condoned, promoted or accepted. No one "deserves" to be the victim of violence. No one "has it coming." NO ONE. And victims should not be ridiculed. I look forward to marching for equality in Washington, D.C. this October. And I look forward to standing up for my rights in a Toronto courtroom shortly, as I fully intend to seek every lawful remedy against the man that attacked me."

Sorry you were attacked Perez. No one deserves that under any circumstance. Do what you feel is right for you and God bless you.
i may not always agree with everything you say, but i know you're a good person
&you don't find many people these days who ACTUALLY say what they feel.. that's why we love you! keep your head up lovely!
Good for you, Mario! I couldn't agree more! Take care! //Sara
I can't believe that happened…I am truly disgusted. : (
U put a gasolin on burning fire.. u get burnt.. whos fault is it? You used hash words on people…yeah… they are celebrity..but they are human too (and most of them is not a gud onces)..Learn..
OK.
You didn't 'have it coming'.
But now you can certainly start looking back on your words and actions and how they affect people. Just sayin.
I Love you so much Mario!
You didn't deserve any of this but you are a great person to speak up against this and make people realize that violence is not the answer.
I promise i will stop fighting and making homophobic remarks because it's not right, I do it every day for fun and even though I realized it made people uncomfortable I still did, but I really promise I will stop.
Everything happens for a reason.
THAT WHICH DOES NOT KILL YOU WILL ONLY MAKE YOU STRONGER
and i can see that it has.
Lots of Love from me and a lot of your fans whom don't usually comment or email but will always have your back.
BEsos y Abrazotes!!
Cuidate Mario y sigue fuerte, no solo para ti pero tambien para todos tus fans.
Well said ! Violence is never the answer.
I find it sad and interesting as a gay citizen of this United States of States that you have the audacity to go online and to go online and talk so much sh** about people and preach violence against the likes of that horrid creature Anne Coulter for speaking out with horrible words and then you turn around and find yourself in that same position that then you called foul. I am not the biggest fan of Fergie but then you go online and rant like a child. When you go and use a word such as FA**OT totally underscores the sincerity that you have professed previously for the gay rights' cause. You made a terrible excuse. So you think that you can be an as**ole on the internet behind your veil while you conduct your smear campaign against people you don't like at the safety of your own computer but find it hard to do it to someone's face. Grow up and stop crying on the internet. I love your site and most likely will continue to read but when you behave like and ass then don't be surprised by the consequences. Stop making excuses for your poor choice of really crappy words. If you were a woman? Look back to all the crap you've talked about Ann Coulter then re-ask prezzy. I don't like Ann Coulter but you shouldn't be such a hypocrite and a cry baby
take him down perez!!!!!!
hope your feeling better, ignore him, he hideous anyway.
Re: Sammy8 – I'm going with a big fat fucking (A) as my choice on your poll
I still don't get it… so perez was attacked by polo molina and not will.i.am, right? who r u fighting perez?
1st I want to ask….for those who seem to hate Perez and his blog, why do you log into his site. That just doesn't make any sense to me. why promote someone you hate. you must not have anything in your life.
And for Perez, I understand how you feel and I'm soryy for what happened to you. your right violence is not the answer and you should go after them legally. when I was young we wld say "sticks and stones break my bones but word can never hurt me". with that what you write is just words they don't mean anything. and for any mature adult with any kind of education level, your words shouldn't mean anything. and if they don't like what you write, than don't read your blog. But Perez I saw the tape of the inncident and you cld have handled it better. you never scream at a person who has already lost they're temper. you listen, let them vent, and if you have to eat a little crow to de-fuse the situation than thats what you do . by screaming back only made the issue worse. the whole idea is to get out of that situation safely.
I fully understand why you called them that name in the heat of anger, so its not a big deal to me. anyone who has been in that kind of situation wld understand it.
so Perez go on and do what you do best and let it go untill you have your day in court, get them where it hurts…in they're wallet.
{{HUGS}} To You my friend. Very well said.
This will soon be behind you, although I know not soon enough.
Kisses to your boo-boo xxxx I LOVE YOU!!!!
good for you. everybody acts out of aggression and it doesn't make you a bad person. keep it up perez, know that your efforts won't go to waste.
FUCKKKKKK THE HATERSSSSSSSSSSSS
Perez as much as you didn't deserve to be hit your words are also violence. Sometimes you are so cruel maybe karma it just getting a bit of its own back.
perez, don't let all this get to you. it's not worth it. take it to court and be done with it. you'll end up winning against that ignorant loser. all the best, xoxo.
good for you&thank you!
violence is NEVER the answer&I respect you soo much for speaking out about it.If ppl see that U being in the public eye are a victim of violence&are willing to make your voice heard&stand up for your self¬ let it happen to you again is HUGE!Ppl out there need to see this&take note.soo many ppl don't say anything&the situation just gets worse.Perez,you are a rolemodel to many.
I was totally disgusted Ppl are soo rude&left unnessessary comments.U are entitled to your own opinions&it's what you do!they are celebrities.Millions of people are juding them&expressing their feelings&opinions why can't you?It's your job.U have millions of viewers, obviously you're doing somthing right.I visit your site a few times a day EVERYDAY! tohear what u have to say. u shouldn't feel guilty for sticking up for yourself AT ALL! be proud!
&I love how ppl are twisting around your story.Did people even watch your video?u made it clear that their manager was the one who punched u, yet all over the news it says YOU said WILL.I.AM did it.PPL rDUMB & clearly don't listen/only say what they heard. Even Will.I.am said it..are you kidding me?
w/e don't listen to them&continue to do what you do and that means write about bands like the Black Eyed Peas! and how Fugly Fergie is.HA p.s your soo right I saw her in person at the MMVAS-WOOF!
Never argue with an idiot… They bring you down to their level and beat you with experience…
Re: aNdrewM –
aNdrewM, it's called Freedom of Speech! Perez can say all of the opinions that he wants. That's what America is all about. You can't just going around like the Black Eyed Peas and beat people up because you don't like their opinion.
"Words can hurt." How ironic that you say this. I have a feeling your 15 minutes is almost up.
Seriously, Perez uses words at most to
get at or "disrespect" people. So its
easy to understand that when you have
to come down to using violence you are
in the wrong; point blank. Just cause
one doesnt respect you doesnt mean you
have lisence to react however the hell
you feel like. You pulled a Chris
Brown on the fab Princess Perez. Its
not hard to understand who is easily
in the wrong. stop making excuses and
take real responsibility of the truth;
like he said he would have respected
you had you done your own dirt.
Be a man w i am.
Support you Perez!!! Fuck the Black eyed peas!!!!!
go Perez!:D
perez, shit happens. its good to see your taking this and using it to grow as a person.
Boo hoo…you're right it shouldn't come to violence…however, you have a website that constantly talks mess about people…you're crass, rude and sometimes offensive…there is a price to be paid…
I'm sorry this had to happen to you Mario!
You are still a fantastic person no matter what they say!!!
Honestly,
Your wrong for using this word, and this sad excuse of a letter is pathetic. We all get mad at when straight people use this word, it's no excuse. And us using this "its not my fault it was a moment of randomness" excuse is pathetic, you said in a video that you used a word that you knew would hurt him, and you knew exactly what you were doing with using this. If you call someone that what do you expect really? You owe the entire gay community an apology for using this word. Its wrong and you perpetuate the use of this harsh word.
Words can hurt? Oh, really? You should know because you hurt, insult, attack, provoke and offend people every day, moron! Sorry, dude, but you get not once iota of sympathy from my gay ass. You dwell in the gutter, so I'm surprised you didn't know life is rough down there.
First of all let me start by saying "violence is not the way to go", but come on Perez you knew this path you took came with consequences. when you lash out with the comments you throw at people how do you think they should respond ?,did you think that you were untouchable,and that people would just keep quiet ?. Perez through the years gossipers have always had to have at one point or another face up to the facts and confront their peers about what they have commented on. Your time was on that night in Toronto and you see how that ended, maybe you should be thanking your lucky stars it wasn't worst. An example in general in which a reporter was talking against the Hell's Angels MC trying to put them on blast, and they responded by going up to his job and putting close to six or seven gunshots in him. And they didn't confront him like the luxury you had with Will.I.Am so you should stop and count your blessings on that one.
If will i. am had called you that "f-word" you would have hit every media outlet imaginable…crying that he was a homophobe and it was a verbal hate crime…but it's okay if you do it??? Perhaps, you're now seeing what the world thinks of you…YOU'RE A PUNCH LINE PEREZ…A PUNCH LINE!
you go around trashing people and expect nothing to happen. I wish Ms california would have kicked your ass also. She said what she believed in and you punished her for it and you scream she isn't right for california,
HEY DUMB ASS California voted and stands behind what she believes in. SO WHY DID YOU PUNISH HER AND COST HER THE TITLE ?
Qoute: "No one "has it coming." NO ONE. And victims should not be ridiculed." Victim????? You "out" other gays and post hate about half of the celebs in the free World and YOU are the victim?? You had it coming son. How DARE you hop on the cross and look for sympathy? - I kid you not, I hope the next guy shoots you in the face. You have it coming. Boo-hoo. Buy a vest.
Yes we all all are Americans and we live in a country where we are all granted equal rights,freedom of speech, and the freedom of expression but we all must also be responsible for what we say and do and be prepared to
answer the questions that follow it. you have put yourself in a broad spotlight in which millions will hear you and will react to what you say so you have to be prepared to handle all things that come your way verbal and physical because your job comes with that risk.
Perez you have to man up or girl up and face the reality and stop trying to go on radio stations pouting and whining about being a victim this is only the beginning to what you will come across out there,hey if this is what you like doing than continue and live your dream but know what responsibilties comes with it and face it with your head up. again let me stress violence never solves anything but neither does gossip…………………….
Perez, you are 100% correct. Don't listen to the people who say you deserve this or had it coming. where is their compassion and humanity? i don't get it. they are probably the same people who voted for George Bush/Cheney.
I love you Perez ! And you're right - violence is never the answer! What that man did is absolutely ridiculous and childish. Will.I.Am is JUST as bad ! LOVE YOU PEREZ! HOPE ALL GOES WELL !
…call me the "f-word" to my face in the hostile manner that I saw on tape…and it won't be my manager that beats your azz…it will be me.
Unfortunately, I have been reading the feedback on what happened to you in Toronto and most of the blogs are saying that you got what you deserved in Toronto!
Your view is twisted! Its o.k. to write crap about everyone and ruin their careers but it not o.k. to get punched in the face!
You had what happened coming to you and you are lucky it hasn't happened sooner!
Its funny how you're whining like a spoiled sissy!
leave the internet you don't deserve it
Perez, be strong. Your statement is very brave and together. Thinking of you x
you're right, perez. what you said was wrong. and it hurt a lot of people. but words should not incite violence, and violence should never be condoned based on the words we speak.
while i do agree with that portion, i do believe that whether you want to be one or not, you have become a spokesperson for Gay civil rights in America. Many of the things you have posted on this site reflect that. So even though you want your personal life and your job to be separate, they will never be. It's like the celebrity that doesn't want to be a role model. Because you're famous, and you speak out on these issues, people see you as such.
regardless of that, this man should never have placed his hands on you. Using violence to deal with criticism is sad. Whether they got the criticism from you or any other person, they should not have dealt with it in that manner. Will.I.Am and Fergie are celebrities, and this comes with the territory. When you're famous, everything you do will be criticized. They need to learn to grow up and accept it.
reading thru some hateful comments…i can't believe the things people will say.
If you hate Perez so much, why would you torture yourselves and read his blog???? what a bunch of sadists you are…deriving pleasure from someone else's pain. yep…as i said before…these are the same people that voted for Bush/Cheney and probably think torture/water-boarding is OK. where is your sense of humanity?
LOL I LOVE HOW YOU DELETED THE "NEGATIVE" (REALISTIC) COMMENTS NEAR THE TOP! IT'S OK I'LL KEEP THAT SECRET! YOU KNOW, NORMALLY I WOULDN'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT A PERSON SUCH AS YOURSELF, YOU KNOW TALKS A BUNCH OF SHIT ABOUT PPL BEHIND THEIR BACKS OR WHILE THEY ARE NOT THERE THEN BITCHES WHEN THEY GET PUNCHED FOR IT BUT YOUR STORY KEEPS GETTING FORCE FED TO ME VIA CABLE… SO I HAD TO RETURN THE FAVOR AND TELL YOU TO GROW THE FUCK UP! YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF AND YOU ACTIONS… BUT THE BEST PART IS!!! YOU WILL GET YOURS AND TRUST ME YOU CANNOT ESCAPE KARMA!! LOL
You know, all I see you doing is twisting & bending words as to avoid admitting ANY wrong on your part. You've made it blatantly obvious in all of your actions & words during this situation that you wish to be nothing more than a victim w/absolutely NO responsibility for what transpired.
Grow up, please.
Sweet Perez, I feel your pain. Keep your chin up and keep being you. I hope you are reading all of this and it gives you comfort. As a few people are saying further negative things, I hope you are reading all the wonderful positive thoughts and well wishes. You are loved and supported and you are not alone.
Take Care,
Tyson
Well said
Take care.
A facebook group was created for those mature enough to know that PH only speaks for PH — and doesn't represent any "community." Dammit, homos, stop pushing homogeneity and playing the "victim" card. FB Group: Perez Hilton Doesn't Speak For Me and That's Okay
I am so sorry Mario. That was really lame, I just wish you hadn't ended your video with "Fugly Bitch" because whether or not it is how you feel it is still intentionally hurtful… verbally or physically… Everyone needs to learn a little compassion
1. Even though a lot of people get hurt everyday, it doesnt mean that that is right or should be normal. Everyone keeps saying shut up it happens to people everyday but that doesnt mean it should happen! No one should be physically harmed at any time.
2. Perez, I applaud you for saying something and setting the records straight.
3. ALL THE PEREZ HATERS SHUT THE FUCK UP! IF YOU HATE HIM SO MUCH THEN WHY ARE YOU ON HIS WEBSITE LEAVING COMMENTS??
that was a great statement…you said a lot of true things and you admitted to mistakes. some of the comments to this post are really unbelievably mean by the way…did you guys even read the whole thing? cause he addresses basically every criticism you threw at him about the incident
I'm so sorry that happened. My heart goes out to you & I will never buy their album or support the Black Eyed Peas again. Will.-i-whatever his stupid name is gives off bad energy & I hate that you had to deal with that & am sure you know never to take it personally xo
ok so your right about the violence, no one at all deserves to be assaulted in any way shape or form. But c'mon! you talk sh*t about people off for a living….did you think that you could go your whole career without pissing someone off? your claim of it being "unprovoked" isn't fair either-you made comments about his friend,and your friends or mine,if they were good friends would have done the same-by that i mean defend us.It sucks that it happened but really…….
Re: lolatyou4life – Umm yeah, he doesn't talk shit behind peoples backs, I thought that part was obvious. Yikkes
Perez,
I completely believe you. What happen was wrong and they should be served with justice for this terrible act. Please know that myself and many other have you in our prayers.
Re: goozy420 – You're an idiot… being a "gay man" has nothing to do with it retard…
As a victim of abuse myself, I think it's interesting that the media hasn't explored the fact that emotional abuse is just as bad as physical abuse. What perez has done to celebrities, yes, MOSTLY female, is prolonged emotional abuse. He contributes to the machine that creates bulimic/anorexic celebs and fans alike. He is a monster who honestly, DESERVED what he got.
He is a bully, a cyber bully, who is brave behind a browser, and then has the audacity to try to befriend the very people he disrespects. Where most gossip bloggers (michael k) are perfectly happy not trying to be the celebrities they gossip about.What he did was the equivalent of publicly talking shit about "the jocks" (or any high school clique) and then going to a football game. Then trying to feign "victim-violence is not the answer." Mario, WORDS ARE JUST AS PAINFUL AS FISTS. TRUST ME I KNOW. If you want to be a shit talkng "journo" (and i use that term very loosely) don't go swimming in the shit your stir. LASTLY, I'd like to say, I personally KNOW Jaime, Will and Apo. No I'm not a celeb or a music person. I'm just a girl from Glendale who has known this crew for longer than long. Since the Kim Hill days. These boys are the nicest, sweetest, genuine people you will ever meet. I mean it when I say, fame/success/money has not changed them. They are not violent and are not responsible for anyone's actions but their own.
Ok here's the thing… I agree violence isn't the answer HOWEVER you do verbally attack celebrities with your cruel and unheartfelt comments ex. Britney Spears when she was mentally going through a lot of issues you thought her custody battle was amusing? Commenting on how women look at awards shows are you supporting hollywood and its influence of eating disorders??? I love how you "support" someone like Paris Hilton who is a horrible influence on todays growing generation!!! She may be living her life which is fine but you shouldn't support her being in the media! There is just so much wrong with your approach I understand its gossip but their is a nicer approach rather than slamming people!!! THIS CAN BE SEEN AS VERBAL ATTACKING! I do NOT agree you should have been hurt! However you should take this situation to evaluate how you treat others!
Take this as a lesson (horrible lesson), but a lesson non the less!
Regardless of whether you "deserved it" or not, it still shouldn't have happened. Violence is never called for and I'm sorry that you had to undergo this unsettling experience.
I truly hope you take him to court and some sort of justice is served. No one should ever get away with that kind of thing.
oh my fucking god seriously perez shut the fuck up.
your career is to basically write gossip on celebrities, whether it be beneficial or detrimental to the people involved.
Either way, someone is going to feel offended.
Did it not occur to you that maybe you should expect some physical action be taken against you for your views and the vulgarity in your blogs and videos?
Get a reality check dude:
Many people DO NOT LIKE YOU.
AND THEY WILL PUNCH YOU.
jeez wake the fuck up.
behind you… words are one thing but only a coward attacks someone from behind.
Part (2) Learn to shut it before it comes to this kind of a situation and now people are looking at you like the ass who started it all and Will.i.am as the victim. Don't call others gay and making it look like it's a bad thing, when you're yourself gay, how dare you ask for an apology, it should be you making the apologies. If you want respect learn to earn it.
Keep saying whatever you want, that's the beauty of freedom of speech.
night
Perez, how can you not understand that on your website you hurt and embarrass many, many people so deeply that you might as well be using physical violence against them. You're a pathetic, self-absorbed little child who delights in being mean. Nice way to make a living.
Re: DNAface – an out homosexual cannot be homophobic. Quit feeding hate.
i hope you get the shit kicked out of you by more peeps, more often. you deserve it you fuck.
you deserve a bitchslap
Re: exit – 2004 NOW THAT'S THE TICKET!
i just think its quite ironic how if the tables were turned and he called you a f*cking f*ggot, you would have GLAAD along with any other gay/lesbian support groups to turn against Will.I.Am and the Black Eyed Peas all together. But since you are a gay male, you feel you have the right to throw that hateful slur around. i think you are a hypocrite.
also quite frankly i feel you are taking the lower road in this situation. i believe you stated that you would no longer speak of the incident on this site, but you have yet to stop.
violence is NEVER the answer, but to be honest, i think people are finding it very difficult to feel sorry for you.
Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me.
This proves the pen (or keyboard in your case) is mightier than the sword, as you've obviously hit the target more than they've hit you.
Oh yes, and I agree the the Peas latest sucks … big time. They'll probably end up doing Vegas.
There something that confuses me, let's see, you insult children (like britney's kids, Suri Cruise, etc), old people, mothers, families, young girls (like Miley) and you DO affect them, for even longer than that black eye will take to heal, and YOU EXPECT NOTHING BACK?! you make fun of people, you insult them without thinking and that's how you make your living, seriously i think that's even worst dude. And i know it all doesn't come "from the heart" as you said, but "from your ass". Me parece una hipocresia de lo peor que te burles de la gente sin pensar y creas que eso no tiene consecuencia, quieres exigir que te respondan por ese golpe, espero que la gente a la que tu has afectado te demande tambien en ese caso. Debes de saber que eso es lo que obtiene la gente aprovechada como tu, abusiva e irrespetuosa hacia la vida de los demas. You got hurt dude, but you don't know how many people you have hurt with all the shit you have thrown at them in these years, i hope the sue you too, that's fair enough, isn't it?… I WOULD EXPECT AN APOLOGY FROM YOU TO EACH PERSON YOU HAVE INSULTED PUBLICLY AND FOR A LIVING IN YOUR BLOG, PROBABLY ALL YOUR WHINING WOULD MAKE SENSE, other than that you would deffinitly desserve this and even more.
Er…no, you really DID have it coming.
Wow, Perez, I didn't realize you had such a Hindi, Buddhist, Jain, and Sikh following. So much about Karma they say.
Life is interesting.
u know verbal voilence is the same as physical voilence and u totally displayed that in the "video" u made. u probably desreved it anyway. stop being such a god damn prick. be a man!!!this definately proves u can dish but u can't take.
PEREZ/Mario
WE SUPPORT YOU
i know you're no liar and that the b.e.p's are just an arrogant bunch
SINGAPORE's behind ya!
love ya perez!
you still continue to make excuses and refuse to accept responsibility for the role you played in this. what does one say to someone like you? are you really that oblivious to the harm you cause repeatedly both personally and professionally? and on a daily basis? why are you so angry that you need to lash out the way you do? you are akin to hate mongers perez. you target certain people and launch a campaign of hate. you are not unlike factions that ostracize people because of their race, religion, or sexual orientation. they are motivated by ignorance, fear and intolerance. and like you convinced that they are right. perhaps you should take time and reflect on why there is such a lack of empathy for you. could it be your lack of remorse and more importantly your lack of accountability. you are not a victim perez. shame on you for portraying yourself as one. you're an insult to those who have truly suffered.
Honestly, waht kind of world do we live in? Where people get smacked in the head for words, where people get killed for simple words and where people don't have the same rights as others just because of their religious bliefs and their sexual orientation… Honestly, waht is THAT? People always say that we are a very intelligent and evoluted race but I don't think we made it very far since the cave man.
Sometmes I really think America's a bit retarded. It's said to be the land where all your dreams can come true but way too many Americans dont't accept gay people. You should really take an example from Europe. Here in Switzerland we have accepted with a great majority gay marriage and gay people are, most of the time, extremely well seen.
The people who say that you somehow "deserved" to get punch are actually the one who should get punched. maby they will be less dumb after that =). And by the way FGergie should get her mind straight, because first she says she doesn't car what people say about here and then this!? Yeah Fergie, big girls don't cry, but they also don't ask their friends to defend them. They can do it on their own!
Finally, I just wanted to say that I love waht you do Perez, even if sometimes your a little mean. You just say waht everybody thinks and it's great! Vive la liberté d'expression =D
Take care and get well soon. Hope you're not so much in shock.
Re: avvi – abolsutly thank u avvi!!!thank u for makin some since!!
Your video rant was ridiculous and showed you to be a man who is completely out of control. You're a pig, and it makes me sick that you verbally punch people in the face every single day and then play the role of poor little victim when someone FINALLY shows you they've had enough. Aside from being an incredibly cruel little bastard, your development was obviously stunted somewhere along the way. You do not resemble an adult in any way.
Sorry for your pain perez, but don't be using homophobic slurs when you yourself slander others who do. That being said you didn't deserve to get hit, hope Toronto treats you better next time you party there, it's such a great city
Mwah Perez, Mwah.
Okay, let me apologize, no one should be shot, but c'mon; part of being a Man is knowing when said too much. Mario, you had it coming. If you aren't Man enough to stand behind the words you use with your fists, shut the hell up. A MAN would have taken the lumps and kept it to himself. Suck it up and be a MAN.
he was too drunk to know what was right. no worries perez. that shit happens. you know what you stand for and thats all that matters!
love you.
I hope you learned something from this experience.
I'm really sorry you got hit Mario. In hindsight though I hope you realize that your choice of words were meant to incite as well as be deragatory. I've seen the video and you had a lot of people around you. The bigger man would have turned around and not resorted to name calling.
Sorry Perez but like most normal people with common sense, I don’t buy this BS “From the heart” excuse one bit. What I read here was nothing more than pure damage control from an otherwise, selfish and cowardly man such as yourself. The fact that you feel that you don’t need to apologize for using a derogatory word against someone else truly shows how pathetic, selfish and how godless you truly are. You claim that words can hurt and what not, yet you feel that it’s ok to insult someone by calling them the very name that is a SLUR towards a community that you are part of? And you feel that the GLADD group owes YOU an apology? You’re one pathetic piece of human trash that deserved to get smashed in the face. First off, MARIO you were NOT in an out of the ordinary situation. Verbal arguments happen ALL the time in this world and HOW you handle them makes you WHO you are. You called someone a belittling name that not only is looked down upon YOUR community but by everyone else as well. And you’re trying to tell me that your justification was that you’re trying to hurt the other person? That’s a BS excuse and you know.
The fact that you are also willing to bring GENDER into this now makes you just as much as a hypocritical person. You speak about equality and wanting the same things, but how can you explain that when you bring women into this by saying “Would they say the same thing if I was a woman?” Because you know what? They probably would, if a woman was trash talking constantly and getting away with it. There would most likely BE a harsh reaction. You can’t talk about equality and then try to use some gender objectification in your argument. That just makes no sense. The fact of the matter is that it WASN’T a woman that was punched, it was YOU. YOU were punched for YOUR slanderous ways and yes, you had it coming.
You say you have more compassion and what not, but that’s not the case, if you feel the need and the wayward justification of insulting other people with derogatory words, then you obviously still feel no justification. Again I don’t condone mindless and unprovoked violent acts. But this isn’t the case. You did provoke someone and you got attacked for your tomfoolery. You can’t shit on people who have done NOTHING to you and expect NOT to take shit BACK. And as much as I hate to admit it, in some RARE cases like this one, there is going to be some physical thrash back, and rightfully so might I add. And the fact of the matter is this. You put yourself in this situation by blogging negatively about celebrities and talking trash. It’s like the school yard bully who finally gets what’s coming to him. I can’t feel sorry for someone who talks trash about others and finally get’s trashed on. You say you don’t want drama in your life, but you are going to continue to GET drama with BS like this.
Once again, Fergie and the thug from "Black Eyed Peas" are stupid thinking that they are above the law, that Perez cannot write shit about them. Who do they think they are? Perez's job is to write shit about everybody that deserves it in his own mind. The thug was following Perez all evening harassing him. This will.i.am looks like a criminal and I would be afraid of him as well. Perez, you should've asked him only "Please leave me alone" and if not, to call security. You should not have "discussed" the issue with people looking dangerously. You didn't deserve to be attacked violently, but the lesson is not to call such thugs the names like f**ot. I hope this Polo guy, who is not very smart obviously, will get his punishment in court. He is not better than the thug will.i.am. I don't really want to hear another song by this group. I thought Fergie seemed to be an intelligent woman, but I was wrong.

perez..that sucks u got hurt..but get over those people giving thier opinions about it being karma and saying stuff…like..youve prolly said stuff thats ruined people lives ya kno? theyre just commenting on what they think of the situation…dont let it affect you.
Mario you are a blubbering vagina who picked a fight, bit off more than you could chew, and is now crying foul. You use your site as a vehicle to belittle and humiliate whoever you decide belongs in you're crosshairs , many of whom have done nothing more offensive than to be in the company of the pretty boys you have an almost pedophilic crush on. You got called out, bitch slapped, and have handled it like the prissy little douche most people have always suspected you are. You are a loathsome character. Stop your pi*sing and moaning, it is repulsive and cowardly.
And yes some people DO deserve to be a victim of violence. Would you feel sorry for Hitler if he was still alive and continuing his evil ways? I wonder how sorrowful you would be if a tyrannical dictator who committed mass murder got what was coming to him. I highly doubt you or anyone would say “That’s not right. He doesn’t deserve to get hurt.” I know it’s not the same as this but in retrospect, it sort of is. You continue to commit verbal and slanderous attacks towards other people, which is almost like instigating a fight, and you finally got what was to be a physical reaction. It’s completely justified in this case because you pissed off the wrong guy. And people were saying “one day he’s gonna get punched” and you did. And maybe if it was someone else who DIDN’T antagonize ANYONE, we’d be singing a different tune. But it was YOU who did the dirty deed by insulting someone else. And you paid for it. And Karma IS a bitch, and it just slapped you RIGHT in the face.
Again YOU had it coming for your careless and reckless insults towards people. And YOU deserved to be ridiculed for the much deserved just deserts that was served to you. This is one of the rare occasions where the ridiculing media is pointing it’s cannons in the right direction. And that direction is towards you. You made this bed Perez, now you got to lie down on it.
CRY BABY! OMG
I'm so glad to see there are some intelligent comments here, other than the usual Perez worshippers.
Perez is a purveyor of hurtful words, about people he knows nothing about. He bandies around the words "fugly", "fat", "whore" etc and yet the guy is hardly leading man material himself. He is like the kid who wants to be popular and is wistfully looking in on all the cool kids and yet will never be accepted by them.
Perez is a misogynistic, homophobic chauvenist. He spreads so much hurt and nastiness, that according to the law of averages, it was all only a matter of time before it came back to him. Perez, watch out. Here comes the backlash. Your pedestal is just about to crack.
Perez, I just have to say you're a lovable person with so much in his heart.. You don't deserve this.. and NO one does! And keep goin' for your rights, equality is for everyone!
is this your apologie?
it's not a very good one.
also this is to long
god bless you!
