TORONTO (AP) - 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.

cat fight!
Stay clear of the urinals when Perez is in the house.
Black Eye Peas guilty of a hate crime?
Things that make you go hmmmm. lol
Why do we waste band width on maggots like this???
Now that’s the pot calling the kettle black.
You can only act like an obnoxious douche for so long before you get punched by someone.
He gets in so many people’s faces and does his best to get under their skin. What did he expect?
I hope Perez is charged with assault for the damage he may have caused to Molina’ fist.
Will. I am. is that dopey looking goofball that wrote songs for Obama during his campaign. Why did his manager have to punch the homo was Will afraid to do it himself?
“Why do we waste band width on maggots like this???”
3X.........
Hasn’t anybody told this feather duster that his fifteen minutes are up?
I was thinking the same thing. Actions have consequences. Liberals don't understand consequences. That's something they believe other people pay.
He was lucky he got away with just a black eye. I've had pimples that gave me more pain.
He’s also the guy in those Pepsi commercials on the split screen with Bob Dylan, and Michelle Obama in the break-dancing clip.
and that FAGGOT actually think people give a sh*t what comes out of his mouth,
emphasis on the “Black Eye.”
Only once?
As a cop once told me about bar fights, its usually the guy that gets punched first, that started it.
