Was Paris Hilton Stiffed By The Hard Rock?

http://www.radaronline.com/sites/radaronline.com/files/imagecache/350width/wenn5467464.jpgGetting Paris Hilton to make an appearance at a Vegas nightclub doesn't come cheap, Radar Online has learned. A lawsuit filed in Clark County District Court Thursday claims that the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Sin City didn't pay Paris her $100,000 per appearance fee for two of her three 2009 dates there.

Los Angeles attorney Joseph Shapiro filed the suit, saying he has been assigned the $200,000 claim by Hilton, reports Las Vegas Inc.

What's most interesting about the case though is the detailing of the perks that came along with Hilton's $100,000 fee.

For each appearance, Paris and up to five members of her entourage were flown from Los Angeles to Vegas in a private jet, Gulfstream 4 or comparable! They were taken by limo from the airport to the Hard Rock where Paris was put up in a suite and her five guests were each given standard rooms.

Paris was also entitled to dinner for 10 at Nobu on Friday night and at one of the Hard Rock's other restaurants on Saturday night.

For her appearance at Rehab, the hotel's poolside club, Paris was entitled to the use of an "owner's cabana," including food and drinks.

Security plus hair and make-up was also provided.

Nice work if you can get it...and get paid.

Britney Spears' Former Nanny To Re-File Lawsuit

http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/2009/07/custom_1247828785161_britney-spears-rules__oPt.jpgThe former nanny who's suing Britney Spears for thousands of dollars in unpaid wages -- whose case was dismissed for failure to serve the pop superstar -- isn't giving up that easily.

Farial Zaltash's attorney, Robert E. Gentino, told Radar Online exclusively that he plans to file a motion in a Los Angeles court this week to vacate the dismissal and says he's confident the judge will grant the request.

"We haven't been able to serve Ms. Spears because she's in a gated compound," said Gentino, referring to the judge's dismissal of the lawsuit March 10.

"Some celebrities just aren't as available to serve."

Zaltash filed suit against the Toxic singer back in October 2010 citing about one month of unpaid wages amounting to nearly $20,000 of work she performed as Spears' personal assistant and nanny back in 2007.

Gentino insists his client and Spears had a contract based on an hourly income. In this case, however, he said it "was not a written contract."

"She (Zaltash) was there sometimes close to 24 hours," Gentino said. "She worked a lot of days and a lot of hours."

Gentino says there are always other ways of serving summons on Spears.

Although they could hire a private investigator, his client "doesn't have the money for that."

His final option will be to publish service on Spears.

"She will be served one way or another," Gentino said. "We won't get this case thrown out."
