Mass Consumption

The thought of Irish playboy Colin Farrell starring in a sex tape doesn't exactly elicit the same urge to vomit as the thought of, oh, say, Verne "Mini Me" Troyer starring in a sex tape — and the actor knows that, which is likely why he doesn't really care much about it. When asked about the controversy during an interview on BBC, Colin laughs it off, explaining that he only had sex on camera because he was high and next time he needs to take the tape with him.

And once again, Colin Farrell manages to be insanely attractive without even trying.

Do Not Want

We thought the Verne Troyer sex tape debacle was going to die, but obviously Xenu has a plan to destroy the world one disgusting step at a time. According to new reports, an overseas company got its greedy little hands on the 50-minute tape and is distributing it online for the low price of $9.95! Seriously, someone would pay that much to watch Mini Me have sexy times with that famewhore of an ex-girlfriend? The Web site was down after its Monday morning debut, but we have a feeling the technical glitches will be worked out soon enough. This tape will never die.

We Don't Even Want To Speculate

Poor Verne Troyer. The actor and newest Hollywood sex tape star has been through the ringer lately thanks to his famewhoring ex-girlfriend, who has opened her mouth yet again. The rep for Ranae Shrider starts by insulting Mini Me's financial situation, saying he can't pay his taxes "because he is paying his lawyer hundreds of thousands of dollars to file ridiculous lawsuits." Also? Verne is "a small-minded, vindictive, heartbroken, desperate and trivial celebrity." Harsh, but coming from a small-minded, vindictive, heartbroken, desperate and trivial wannabe celebrity is almost laughable.

But the final punch came with this lovely statement: "Ms. Shrider would still like to thank Mr. Troyer for the 'lasting' gifts he has imparted her with." Uh, OK? What the hell does that mean?

He Said, She Said

In light of recent allegations of abuse, Verne Troyer's ex, Ranae Shrider, is turning the tables and claiming it was the other way around. Her rep (yes, this loser has a rep) issued a statement filled with some not-so-nice words:

This lawsuit is ridiculous and riddled with lie upon lie from Verne Troyer and his camp. It is in our opinion a transparent attempt to secure as much publicity as he can from his less than average career in the wake of his most recent failure in The Love Guru.

The only abuse that ever occurred in their household was that of emotional abuse inflicted upon Ranae and her dog Lacy on the occasions when he hit Ranae and her dog with his 'reaching sticks' or kicked them when having one of his drunken rages.

Oh, please. You mean to tell us that a six-foot-tall woman can't defend herself against a little person who isn't even half her size? We smell a publicity whore.

Buck Up Little Camper

Precious little Verne Troyer still can't catch a break: This time, he's suing ex-girlfriend Ranae Shrider for "intentional infliction of emotional distress and battery." Also getting hit with a lawsuit is a lawyer who Verne says tried to broker a deal for the sale of that horrendous sex tape. Can we sue him too? Because nobody needs to see that.

The allegations against Ranae include an incident in which she picked the lock to his bedroom door, picked up Verne and then threw him on the floor. Verne's lawyer put it this way: "When you pick up a 2-foot-8 human being and throw him to the floor, it hurts." Solid point.

Verne's suing Ranae for $20 million, which means she's going to have to start making the talk show rounds in the next few weeks. Prepare your DVRs.

Our favorite little guy, Verne Troyer, received great news this weekend as a judge shot down the distribution of that disturbing sex tape Mini Me made with his famewhore ex-girlfriend. Snippets of the 50-minute tape were leaked to TMZ last month — but Verne must approve of the selling or distributing of the tape, and he vowed he will do no such thing.

Good move, Verne. Seriously, we kind of love him, but no one wants to see his reptilian tongue darting in and out of that loser's mouth.

Whitney Falls For It

I never thought I'd say this, and I'm probably alone here, but I've grown a soft spot in my heart for Verne Troyer. He seems to be getting the raw end of the deal with this disgusting sex tape scandal, and to add insult to injury, he's still sharing a house with his ex-girlfriend who sold the tape to TMZ in the first place.

'She's still in the house,' Troyer said, noting that he’s taking legal action to force her out, but their situation 'makes it even harder, to, you know, not strangle her.' According to the actor, his brunette ex has been taunting him. 'I saw her when I left today, and she was calling me names and stuff…so I can't get away from it,' he said, choking back tears.

Troyer said friends, family and attorney are helping him pull through the mess, but that the embarrassment 'has already started affecting [work opportunities].'

But the real "aww" factor came into play when Verne shared my favorite Heath Ledger on-set story to date.

And Other Questions You Never Wanted Asked

minimershrider.jpg

Ranae Shrider, the lovely woman who filmed a sex tape with Verne Troyer and then leaked it on the Internet, is playing this "scandal" like a pro. Not only has she been seen all over the World Wide Web with Mini Me's reptilian tongue darting down her throat — now she's speaking out to the media and sharing way too many details about the former couple's sex life.

As for their fairytale romance, Ranae admits that as soon as she met Verne she was so captivated by his personality she no longer cared that he was less than three feet tall: "I liked him so much I even gave up wearing high heels for six months." Sounds like love, no?

Unfortunately for us, true love didn't last forever in this instance, which means we are now being treated to the details of the couple's sex life — after the jump, for those who have already eaten breakfast.

Going Through the Motions

vernetroyer.jpg

Verne Troyer is now a mini litigant in a a $20 million lawsuit filed yesterday afternoon against TMZ, the often stupid but rarely wrong gossip site he claims violated his rights by publishing and airing portions of his sex tape.

Troyer alleges the tape was obtained illegally before ending up in the hands of the same porn purveyor who released One Night in Paris, the Oscar-nominated drama about a rich girl who sleeps with terrible men to feel fleeting notions of worth.

Surely, this whole dustup has nothing to do with obtaining free publicity for Troyer's new film, The Love Guru, which is currently tanking at the box office. And racist.

No Words

vernetroyer.jpg

We are of the school of thought that any celebrity sex tape made public is usually the doing of said celebrity, and this time is no different: Verne Troyer, also lovingly referred to as Mini Me, has leaked an X-rated video shot with his ex-girlfriend. Kevin Blatt, sex tape distributor to the stars, is peddling the tape for $100,000, which is $100,000 too much.

As a lovely preview of the tape, please direct your attention to the left. And then feel free to throw up your breakfast. (Image has since been removed.)

The MTV Movie Awards were held last night, and I admittedly couldn't bring myself to sit through the hours-long crapfest. Just by looking at the pictures (after the jump), it's obvious I didn't miss much.

Anyone care to share exciting stories from the show (if you decided to punish yourself last night)?

Leave Mini-Me Alone!

Verne Troyer (or, as we affectionately call him, Mini-Me) was enjoying a nice lunch at The Ivy with a lady friend when he was confronted by an angry photographer who accused him of leaving his ex-wife broke and close to suicide.

The conversation was basically the pap repeating over and over, "Genevieve! Your ex-wife! I know her!" Every once in awhile he would throw in a "dot com" after her name, which … doesn't make any sense.
