Y’all know I don’t do this often, so sit down and have some tea with me. This is riveting.
So Page Six is reporting that Lady Gaga’s former assistant Jennifer O’Neill, whom she called a “f - - king hood rat” during a bruising court battle, is working on a dishy book about the singer called “Fame Monster.”
Jennifer — who worked for Gaga from 2009 to 2011 Monster Ball and sued in 2011 claiming that she was owed $393,000 for 7,168 hours of overtime, plus damages — has struck a deal with Simon & Schuster imprint Atria Books. The deal is estimated to be worth $1 million…. which could be worth all the suffering Jennifer claimed she endured.
According to court testimony, Jennifer said she was “required” to sleep in Gaga’s bed “because she didn’t sleep alone,” and was expected “to be working and available 24/7” for an annual salary of $75,000.
“I had no privacy, no chance to talk to any family, no chance to talk to any friends, no chance to have sex if I wanted to have sex. There was no chance to do anything.”
In October 2013, Gaga agreed to settle Jennifer’s suit out of court. Terms were not disclosed.
Personally, $75K as a personal assistant wouldn’t cut it. I could easily go work in corporate American for way more than that. I guess you perks like travel, the ability to hang out with your fave.
