delahoya dragqueen photos proven to be fake! Lawsuit dropped!
It's now been officially proven in court the photos of Oscar De La Hoya in drag that caused an internet frenzy last year, were indeed photoshop'ed. The pictures that Milana Dravnel claimed were De La Hoya dressed in drag, were digitally altered.
After experts testified on stand that the photos had been doctored, Dravnel, an ex-stripper has now dropped her $25 million suit she had against De La Hoya.
Quoted in the media, De La Hoya's lawyer, Judd Burstein had this to say about the outcome: "Oscar's always claimed the photos were false.We had experts conclude that they were doctored. She was facing very large damages and so she agreed to drop the case. ... The case would have been dismissed anyway."
Dravnel's lawyer, Salvatore Strazzullo, offered no comment.
The photos had been made public last year by website x17online.com, which refused to take down the photos when De La Hoya representatives told the website the pictures were false.
When the photos first surfaced last year, our photoshop expert here at DoghouseBoxing, icheehuahua also went on record saying the photos looked altered. It now seems a court of law agrees, thanks to other expert testimony.

Too bad the photos weren't around prior to the Mayorga fight. The stuff he would've come up with would've been outstanding.

There was no trial!!!. Where did this story come from: Goldenboy?
If the suit got dropped, it is because he paid the lady off, and I am sure Goldenboy made her sign a confidentiality agreement.
And by the way, those pictures are clearly real. It's not hard to spot a fake photo, all you have to do is blow it up and at some point the pixels will show where the artificial connection is. These pics are real.
Moreover, she sold them to a tabloid for 100K, you think they dont have departments in those magizines that verify this pics before spending all that cash?

Re: delahoya dragqueen photos proven to be fake! Lawsuit dropped!
Well said lance Uppercut :cool:
I couldn't care less whether the pics are real or not.. BUT Oscar's people saying they are fake don't mean nothing! That was always gonna happen ;D
Fake or not the damage has already been done.
Re: delahoya dragqueen photos proven to be fake! Lawsuit dropped!
Sorry, I still think they're real. That was really Oscar's drunken, red face and wow, they certainly found someone who had a body a LOT like Oscar's. We've seen him with his shirt off often enough to know what it looks like. It's funny how people change their minds like underwear. Anything with the appearance of officiality and they're turned in the other direction. I'm sorry, but what newspaper was this article from?

Yup, I think they are real too. Oscar lined her pockets with money and threatened her with lawyers.
Re: delahoya dragqueen photos proven to be fake! Lawsuit dropped!
Aww damn you beat me to the sacastic conspiracy post....well anyway, those experts were on the take, or hush money was provided. Thats why Oscar has to keep fighting he lost alot of money on that drunken escapade. :p
Re: delahoya dragqueen photos proven to be fake! Lawsuit dropped!
Personally the ones I had heen I thought were the worst super imposing to date in the sense of it trying to be passed off as real.
Oscar has dabbled enough in that behavior.
Has anyone seen his music videos?
