Perez Hilton has decided to release a statement regarding the recent tweets from Lady Gaga claiming the two were no longer friends…and after he was spotted at her NYC apartment building looking at an apartment and Gaga tweeted her former friend telling him to stop stalking her. Perez says he was only apartment hunting as he is relocating to NYC more permanently.
From Perez Hilton:
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.
Perez even made a few tweets that alluded to their failed friendship last nigh and this morning.
@Ladygaga Maybe one day I’ll talk about the hurt you caused me and many others. I’m still healing, removing your knife from my heart.
@ladygaga Not only were you #cruel to people who worked for you, friends of mine, but you also purposefully tried to sabotage other artists.
I can’t sleep. I am literally sick to my stomach. Not playing any fucking games here. I am afraid for my fucking safety and that of my son.
