(HMG) – Not surprisingly Lady Gaga has fired back against the supposed ex-flame who’s accused her of cheating him out of millions, and filed a countersuit charging he’s the one who took advantage of her. Fusari, a song writer and music producer, filed the lawsuit Wednesday in New York City against Gaga for $30 million. Fusari painted himself as Gaga’s mentor and lover in his lawsuit. He claimed his former girlfriend, whose real name is Stefani Germanotta, dropped his services as her career flourished. He alleged they co-wrote songs such as “Paparazzi” and “Gorgeous, Dirty, Rich” and that he came up with her stage name.
In papers filed in Manhattan Supreme Court, Gaga says producer Robert Fusari “induced” her into an “unlawful arrangement” where he would receive 20 percent of the earnings from her first four albums as well as producer fees, even if he didn’t produce the records. The “Poker Face” singer is seeking a court order declaring their contract “void and unenforceable,” as well as the return of any cash he’s already collected.
Fusari’s lawyer, Robert Meloni, said: “That argument is one of the most ridiculous I’ve heard in 30 years.” He called the contention “ludicrous” and said it “smacks of desperation.”
We’ll see how this all plays out, but I said at the time of Fusari’s suit that it has a sound of truth to it and I agree with his lawyer that this countersuit sounds like a desperate attempt to get the case dismissed.
