Why the hell did he dress up in drag anyways?
It's not like he needs money?
"Let me tell you, yes, yes, it was me [in those pictures]," he told the show, saying he was under the influence of alcohol and cocaine when the pictures were taken. - Osckar
she was ultimately paid $20 million by the boxer to silence her, court documents have revealed.
Dravnel was also ordered to return the lingerie, high heels and fishnet stockings that she had kept after their saucy photo shoot.
Make no mistake, this is a lot more than just a former boxer admitting that he played naughty domanatrix dress-up one night. De La Hoya had an eight-month affair with the woman whom he was photographed with. When the relationship ended, Dravnel tried to sell the photos, and that’s when De La Hoya set loose his lawyers and a high-powered PR firm to smear her. He even had lawyers call in photo experts to swear that the pictures were Photoshopped. Dravnel eventually backed down, saying that she couldn’t vouch for the photos. But then she filed a federal lawsuit against De La Hoya, which was settled out of court — the Post says for $20 million, to buy her silence.
It was a pretty despicable display.
De La Hoya says that he was high on booze and cocaine when the photos were taken, but he was presumably cold sober when he called in the lawyers. Complete douchebaggery.
