Vern … Dude! Get Some, Little Man!
Mini-Me, star of Austin Powers, sues over dwarf sex tape
By Nick Allen - (TimesUK)
Hollywood actor Verne Troyer, who starred as Mini-Me in the Austin Powers films, is suing a website over a video of him having sex with a model.
The star, who stands 2ft 8 ins tall, has filed a $20 million (£10 million) lawsuit claiming invasion of privacy and breach of copyright.
He says the tape was stolen and has since ended up in the hands of the same film producer who distributed a notorious sex tape of hotel heiress Paris Hilton.
Mr Troyer, 39, is the latest in a long line of Hollywood celebrities to have their sex lives aired on the internet.
He made the tape with a former girlfriend, an American model in her 20s.
Mr Troyer filed his lawsuit at a court in Los Angeles and also requested and injunction banning further distribution of the film.
The actor, who is Hollywood’s smallest star and also a stunt man, was married briefly in 2004 to a yoga teacher.
The following year he appeared on a US reality television show where he got drunk and urinated in the corner of a gym while riding naked on a scooter.
His most famous film role has been as Mini-Me, a miniature clone of Dr Evil, played by Mike Myers, in the Austin Powers films.
He appears in the second and third films of the trilogy - Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me and Austin Powers in Goldmember.
The actor also starred as Griphook the Goblin in the film of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone.

Actually check VH1’s web site …
He did that on a season of the Celebrity reality show “Surreal Life” … where they threw together a bunch of wash-up stars together in one house … Kind of like Survivor, but nobody gets voted out … you’re just stuck there.
Also, I think the TV Guide channel reruns some of the seasons …
