A massive cat-fight has broken up in Tinsel Town and it’s not going to look pretty. Lady Gaga has launched a full on social media attack on celebrity gossip blogger, Perez Hilton, accusing him of stalking her.
A Twitter user has prompted Gaga with accusations of Hilton scoping out on her apartment building in New York. Although she was not in the building, she noted that building management confirmed Hilton’s presence in the premises, Gaga hopped onto Twitter to confirm accusations thus launching a Tweet outburst on Hilton:
But Perez, in his defense, posted this statement via his website:
I have long had plans to return to New York City more permanently. New York was my home for 6 years in the mid 90s, before I moved to Los Angeles. I also lived here for 3 months last year while doing an off Broadway show. I’m a new father and I am primarily focused on my family and where we will be most happy. I love New York and that is where me and my growing family want to call home right now. Sunday, my realtor showed us a list of possible apartments to rent. I learned only after the fact that Lady GaGa lives in one of the buildings we looked at, and she was across the country in Los Angeles when I viewed that building. After a day of innocent house-hunting, I am devastated and my heart hurts that my former very good friend, a person I used to call my “wifey” and traveled the world with, is making very public and very untrue allegations about me on Twitter. While it is still too painful for me to go into detail about why I chose to no longer make her a part of my life, I will say that I am a critic and not a “stalker”. Any allegation that I am stalking her, based on a day of house hunting with my baby boy and my mother, is utterly false, defamatory and now appears to be putting me and my family in danger. I will continue to be a critic – in a way that is not mean or involves name-calling, and I will continue to have an opinion and talk about music and songs, like GaGa’s “Applause”. I hope her fans stop sending me death threats, as the suggestion that I pose a danger to Lady GaGa is preposterous. If her fans want to send a message of support to Lady GaGa, they should buy her music. Notwithstanding my feelings about our personal relationship, I do wish Lady GaGa happiness and continued success and I assure you my family house hunting has nothing to do with her.

It was not too long ago that Gaga and Hilton were best of friends and apparently had a fall out after Hilton had allegedly sent her a photo of herself in a wheelchair with nasty remarks after her hip accident.
