Here’s a former Z-list reality celeb we haven’t heard about in a while!
It’s Victoria Gotti, and her name is in the press again. But this time, it’s for a lawsuit.
Turns out that HarperCollins Publishers is suing the mob-related Gotti.
The reason?
Turns out she collected $70,000 on a book advance to write her memoir but never wrote the damn thing.
They are charging that Gotti signed a contract back in 2005 to write two books. The manuscript for her memoir was to be submitted by September of 2005.
Three years later, the book has yet to be published.
The suit claims that Victoria submitted an outline of the book twice, but they were rejected and deemed as “unacceptable” stating the outlines “were not capable of producing a complete manuscript.”
Otherwise meaning, “Your book sucks. Re-write it!”
Then, in September she informed HarperCollins that she was ending the contract for her memoir.
According to her agent, Frank Weiman, he says Gotti will get another book deal soon and return the advance.
As for the reason of ending her contract, he says it’s because the people Gotti used to deal with at HarperCollins are no longer worker there, and that’s why she canceled.
Ok, we’re calling it.
Bullshit!
P.S. Wouldn’t Victoria Gotti and Michael Lohan make the hottest couple together?????
