JOOST & AMOR DENY GAY RUMOURS
in happier days.
The fallen rugby icon Joost van der Westhuizen (39) and his estranged wife singer Amor Vittone (37) will sue after a gossip magazine reported that they both had affairs with members of the same-sex.
People magazine claimed late last week that the two celebrities, who are engaged in a bitter public divorce, have been involved in gay relationships following the breakup of their marriage.
“We received a call from a member of the public in which allegations of the couple’s homosexual and lesbian relationships were made,” said Assistant Editor Angela Tsikoudakis.
Van der Westhuizen and Vittone’s respective lawyers denied the claims on Friday and announced that their clients would individually sue the magazine.
They further criticised the publication for not approaching their clients to comment or verify the claims.
“We made it clear in the article that these were just allegations. There are no grounds for them to sue us,” insisted Tsikoudakis.
In February 2009, Van der Westhuizen was accused by another gossip magazine, Heat, of being the man in sex and drugs tape that was allegedly used to blackmail him.
Despite fervently denying that it was him in the ” Joostgate” tape and threatening to sue the magazine in November he finally confessed that he was indeed the man in video.
In May it was reported that Vittone had thrown Van der Westhuizen out of their home and earlier this month he announced that he had filed for divorce.
Lies. “We made it clear in the article that these were just allegations. There are no grounds for them to sue us,” insisted Tsikoudakis.
So Ms Tsikoudakis it is ok to publish garbage and with a small disclaimer and then expect not to be sued. You deserve it.
….. Maybe I should place a call to People magazine and tell them that Joost and Amor are actually aliens hellbent on world domination … or they’re stick insects … or androids … or secret agents … or superheroes …. will get that published too? It’s pathetic that magazines like People thrive on such crap (with no evidence) to back up their claims. And so what if they were in gay relationships? That is their business not anyone else’s. Thank God I am not one who wastes money on such stupid magazines that are only suitable to line my cat litter box with.
not the first time Joost & gay have been used in the same sentance……i do agree though, that magazines like this are crap and have nothing to substantiate their claims.
Just Joost it. Frankly my dear this is one guy that doesnt deserve to be queer
Same sex couples. She might be, she wears the pants in the relationship. As Joost said in his book discussing the roadside bowel movements
