I don't doubt if that she was acting like a moron John would unleash a tyrade on her. But punch her?
The story sounds a little made up, but then again, who knows what really happened? If John had been drinking (A LOT), he might have punched her and not realized what he was doing.
It all comes down to if she has any proof, any pictures...
I hate to say it, but I could see John getting himself into trouble with things like this. When someone does him wrong in his mind, he lets them know and that pisses people off. Sometimes, you just have to keep your mouth shut and he might have let a tyrade go on the wrong woman. :[

I can see him going off on a tirade, but I really can't see him punching a woman in the face. Especially now, he seems more mellow with age. I heard she has no police report on the "assault". I would DEFINATELY have a police report if somebody punched me in the face! I think it is a "half truth" just in my opinion.

He probably yelled at her (probably for something not as trivial as she says) and she decided to sue him because frankly, she can. It's one of those times where John probably wishes he wasn't as outspoken because when you yell at the wrong person (even though they deserve it), they will bite you in the ass in return.

It's America, you can pretty much sue anybody for anything. I was thinking, I can't remember hearing about John hitting women when he was younger. Why would he start now? That's what I find fishy about this woman's claim.

That's what I find fishy about this woman's claim. I don't think it's an issue of "hitting women." John's equal oppurtunity. Remember in his book, he talked about how he didn't think girls should take care of the siblings just because they were girls - the oldest should do that. Pretty much: he doesn't pay attention to things like that. I think if someone was seriously physically threatening him, he wouldn't care if it was a man or a woman. Basically, in conclusion: I'm not going to look at it as an issue of "John wouldn't hit a WOMAN". Why? Because John doesn't see things that way.

Actually, I can't wait for John's response to the situation. Either way, it should shed more light on the situation. In the meantme, I hope he retains a good attorney. Lawsuits are a royal pain in the ass.

I couldn't agree with you MORE....I don't think John would look at someone as "man" or "woman" in that situation. If she was acting like a bitch and deserved to be punched John would hit her just like he hit Nancy when she was mouthing off at him and getting physical at him. John doesn't discriminate, why should she NOT get hit just because she is a woman. And how DARE her not get the hotel accommodations right for John and the Ramminator.....if she thought John was brutal I would have kicked the living dog shit out of her........ Having said that, I will wait to see what John says about the situation and whatever he says goes in concrete as far as I am concerned....

I bet (if it's true) it was her fault and she just wants to sue for the heck of it. I'd really like to hear johns side....they make him sound like one of those hardcore popstars who think they are better than everyone else.

Without knowing what John's said, here is what I think happened:
Assistant messed up on the hotel arrangements. Not a huge deal. John says, hey you messed up, can you fix it? (probably trying to be polite here.) Assistant says something dumb and won't even try to fix it. John yells at said assitant. Assistant gets pissed, makes up story about hitting.
I don't think John would hit somebody; he's a nonviolent person, he's said it his entire career. Pretty much he probably just let her have one verbally and she got pissed off, so she decided to make up a story in order to show him.

I don`t think John would hit a woman for that stupid thing unless he got REAL pissed but I don`t think he would ahve gotten pissed for some bad arrangments... That woman`s attitude reminds me of argentinians young celebrities.. you wouldn`t imagine how many young girls became fomous over here because of a scandal... Of course.. I`ll defend John here... he`d never hot a woman phisically.. maybe verbally but not phisically...

I agree with you and Mish I mean, I don't think John would hit her not because she's a woman just because of the situation, to my point of view this whole thing of the accommodations isn't enough to provoke John to punch someone, maybe she did something else that really pissed him off, and he just reacted. Anyway, I'm sure this woman is only trying to get some money and the attention of the press by making up some bad story. And yes I know what you mean johnnysgirl about some girls becoming famous because of a scandal it's something of the everyday news here in Mexico

I think it's a bunch of silly nonsense. But with that said, it looks like John (AND POOR RAMMY TO BOOT) will be tied up trying to defend themselves against this fat chick's allegations.

This was a reply someone left on the comments section under the Rotten getting sued article:
"I have to say that in my professional capacity I have worked with and dealt with both John and Rambo and honestly can say that they are the most decent, funny guys ever. I have worked under extreme pressure with them both where they could have "lost it", but never have. I laughed when I read this! There is no way that they would have used that language to a woman, especially a well rounded woman! Take it from me. TRUE Maria"
