Gloria Allred, attorney to just about every media whore ever created, announced today that Vanessa Lopez is filing a lawsuit against Shaquille O’Neal in Florida. Lopez claims she was in a relationship with Shaq for five years and that he repeatedly harassed her when she tried to break it off.
Lopez says she “fears that someone is after her … I want to feel safe again.”
Back in 2007, Lopez reported to Lake Mary, Florida police that she was being harassed by the brother of another basketball player and former boyfriend, J.J. Redick. Police indicated that David Redick called Lopez and said he would leave her alone “when she leaves J.J. alone.”
Back in 2006, then-Boston Celtics player Delonte West called hotel security on Lopez, claiming she refused to leave his Orlando hotel room. Police were called to the room — where Lopez, according to the police report, then accused West of making unwanted sexual advances toward her.
West acknowledged that he had slept with Lopez in the past — but claimed he never hit on her that night. West said Lopez tried to seduce him — but he rejected her because he had another woman coming over. Police ultimately removed Lopez from the premises.
In 2007, Lopez reportedly had a one-night stand with another NBA star, Kenyon Martin. She then allegedly rifled through his wallet and used his credit card to purchase several thousands of dollars of clothing without Martin’s permission.
Shaq is in the midst of a divorce. Shocking.
