Happy Anniversary to Perez Hilton and Fidel Castro!

Saturday marks six years since the blogger infamously — and falsely — reported that Castro was dead!

Back on August 24, 2007, the painfully uninformed Perez tried to scoop the world with an “exclusive” about the Cuban leader allegedly having died.

“Sources reveal exclusively to PerezHilton.com that U.S. officials will be holding a press conference shortly to announce the death of Cuban dictator Fidel Castro,” he announced.

Six years later… we’re still waiting for that press conference.

The funniest part about Perez’s “reporting” that day was that he later doubled (andquadrupled) down on his 100% wrong bet.

“The announcement of Fidel Castro’s death will be made at approximately 4:00 P.M. Eastern, PerezHilton.com has just been updated exclusively,” wrote the blogger in an update.

After being proven wrong, a defiant Perez then posted a third story claiming Castro was dead.

It was this type of outright false “reporting” that inspired Gossip Cop to launch.

In any case, six years after Perez Hilton declared him “dead,” Fidel Castro still isn’t, and the blogger continues to churn out FALSE STORY after FALSE STORY.

Happy Anniversary, Perez!

Perez Hilton Commands Fans to Buy Old Christina Aguilera Album to Hurt Lady Gaga

Truth rating: 10

Lady Gaga’s war with Perez Hilton has taken another turn.

The shameless blogger is now urging fans to purchase Christina Aguilera’s 2010 misfire Bionic on November 11 — the same day Gaga’s ARTPOP album is scheduled for release.

On Wednesday, Hilton tweeted a picture of Aguilera and the phrase “JusticeForBionic,” asking followers to “spread the word” and “Buy Bionic 11.11.13″ (see below).

While he didn’t explicitly say why he wants people to spend money on an old Aguilera project on that specific day, his intentions were clear.

The rift between former pals Gaga and Hilton widened in recent days after the blogger repeatedly tweaked Gaga on Twitter, pointing out unflattering sales statistics for her single “Applause” and unfavorably comparing her to Katy Perry.

Gaga then told her fans that Hilton had mocked her serious hip injury and advised her Little Monsters to “ignore him.”

She subsequently called him “sick” and accused him of stalking and harassing her.

We doubt Hilton’s plea that music fans buy a three-year-old Aguilera album to hurt ARTPOP will help end the feud.

What do you think of Hilton’s attacks on Gaga?

Lady Gaga SLAMS Perez Hilton AGAIN: He’s “Sick” And “Harasses Me”

Truth rating: 10

Lady Gaga has again slammed former pal Perez Hilton, calling him “sick” and claiming he “harasses me.”

On Friday, the hit singer told fans to “ignore” the blogger after she revealed on Twitter that he had previously sent her a text “of me in a wheelchair w the words KARMA written across,” following her hip injury.

But Gaga was far from done with Perez, who Gossip Cop constantly corrects for his super bad reporting.

On Sunday, she tweeted, “@perezhilton STAY AWAY FROM ME + MY FAMILY YOU ARE SICK TRYING TO RENT AN APARTMENT IN MY BUILDING TO STALK ME. LEAVE ME ALONE!!!

Whoa!

And that’s not all.

Gaga later wrote, “DO I NEED TO BE SHOT IT IN THE HEAD FOR PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND THAT HIM AND EVERYONE ELSE THAT HARASSES ME HAS GONE TOO FAR? IM A HUMAN BEING.”

Earlier in the week, Perez tweaked Gaga on Twitter, repeatedly pointing out unfavorable sales statistics for her single “Applause” and unfavorably comparing her to Katy Perrywith whom Gaga expressed solidarity last weekend.

When her fans began to tear into Perez, Gaga tweeted, “Please monsters do not be affected by someone like this NOTHING merits this kind of hatred. Im ok & I always survive. Ignore him. Just Dance.”

Gossip Cop will have updates should Gaga again hit back at Perez.
