Verne Troyer's Ex Fires Back At His Abuse Allegations

Actor Verne Troyer's sex tape partner and former girlfriend is not happy about the actors' abuse accusations in the new lawsuit he filed against her.

A rep for Rane Shrider, who recently admitted to stealing a sex tape the pair made and releasing it, dismissed Troyer's suit calling it "ridiculous and riddled with lie upon lie from Verne Troyer and his camp."

"It is in our opinion a transparent attempt to secure as much publicity as he can from his less than average career in the wake of his most recent failure in The Love Guru," the statement from the 22-year-oldl aspiring actress said.

"The only abuse that ever occurred in their household was that of emotional abuse inflicted upon Ranae and her dog Lacy on the occasions when he hit Ranae and her dog with his 'reaching sticks' or kicked them when having one of his drunken rages," the statement added.

According to legal papers filed in Federal court on Thursday, the 32-inch-tall actor claimed Ranae Shrider intentionally inflicted emotional distress and battery on him, refusing to move out of his home when the two split up.

"When you pick up a two-foot eight-inch human being and throw him to the floor, it hurts," the star's lawyer Ed McPherson said.

Little over a month ago, celebrity gossip site TMZ revealed that a sex tape Shrider and the little actor existed and was being published with Shrider permission.

In his complaint, Troyer insisted that the tape had been stolen from him and that a tearful Shrider confessed to him that she was unaware of how the tape became public. Shrider's attorney, Keith Davidson, said none of the defendants had been served with the lawsuit and attacked it for being leaked to celebrity gossip site TMZ before it was officially filed.

"The recently revealed lawsuit that was sheepishly leaked to the press by Troyer's attorney is an abomination of the legal process," Davidson was quoted by the Associated Press as saying.

Troyer recently told Usmagazine.com about the humiliation he experienced after the footage surfaced.
"I put all the trust in her," Troyer said. "She kept the tape in her camera on top of the closet where I couldn't even reach it!"
