lesbian theft!
Alexandra Hedison is suing ex Ellen DeGeneres for palimony, and Portia De Rossi for lesbian theft. Apparently, under some kind of ancient wack-job law, Hedison can say that DeRossi is responsible for "alienation of affection", or in other words, criminal seduction. Though the charge would be very difficult to prove, I'm a little concerned that it's a charge to begin with. Listen, Alexandra, I feel your pain. Your lady up and left you for a young waif and you're hurting. But let's not get carried away. Turn your hurt into success! Now that you dug up this legal loophole, use your expertise to develop a soft-core Law and Order spinoff for cable: Evil Seductress Unit.
So, wait, according to this law, you can sue someone if they dump you? OH MY GOD, I would have been SO RICH in high school.
JD- where's my legal consultation on this?

Were these girls stolen from you, or did they leave of their own volition?

Yes, there is actually such a cause of action, but as the guy in the piece says, it's pretty rare. I think Ellen should countersue with a cause of action for "Really Not Being That Hot Anymore."
