LOS ANGELES (Nov. 6) - James Belushi has sued his next-door neighbor, actress Julie Newmar, accusing her of a "campaign of harassment" to drive him from his home.
In a lawsuit filed Nov. 2, the 50-year-old actor claims Newmar vandalized his estate by destroying a fence and landscaping. He also contends she bad-mouthed him to neighbors and friends, spied on his family and caused a nuisance by playing loud music directed at his backyard.
A telephone number for Newmar, who played Catwoman in the 1960s television series "Batman," was not immediately available. A call to Belushi's lawyers was not returned Saturday night.
The suit seeks an injunction against the actress as well as damages of at least $4 million plus attorneys' fees, saying her actions caused emotional distress and harmed Belushi's reputation and career.
"Newmar has engaged in a malicious and premeditated campaign to prevent and destroy Belushi's quiet peace," the suit says.
It's good to see Hollywood back to normal.
There were several Catwomen. Which one was she?
The woman's nuts!
"What's the name of his show, Precious? Oh yes, According to Jim. And they called my show campy. Meow!" |
She always struck me as a not so wealthy eccentric which (rolls eyes) is common practice in southern California. When in Ca. act eccentric, they'll think you're madly rich.
The original and the best.
The first one, basically. She is the white one from TV, Eartha Kitt is the black one from TV, and Lee Merriweather is the white one from the Batman movie.
Yapping doggies in the moonlight.
She was the hot one.
What kind of music? If it was hip-hop, that would be grounds for all out war.
Can't imagine why she wasn't invited back.
OH I think she was- I think she was professionally unavailable for the movie and the other TV show appearances.
"To Jim, Thanks for Nothing! Julie Newmar"
I'm getting a bad graphic image in my mind of her and Jimbo. I hope the years have been kind to her and the bod.
Newmar and Belushi have a deal going: all publicity.
Perhaps one of them has a new movie coming out in the near future.
It's all make believe in L.A.-L.A. land.
What is Newmar/Belushi's political affiliations? Does Newmar have past mental problems? Does Newmar have past episodes of this nature? Where do they live? How many children does Belushi have? How many grandchildren does Newmar have, if any? Has Belushi ever slighted Newmar? What do the neighbors say?
(sigh) J-school was such a waste of money for this AOL writer.
