Johnny Rotten settles reality-show-producer punching suit

Posted by aubin on Thursday, February 4, 2010 at 2:30 PM (EST)

Johnny Rotten has settled the lawsuit filed in 2008 that accused him of assault and battery, claiming that he punched a reality show producer in the face because he was unhappy with the Los Angeles hotel room she secured for him during a shoot last year. Lawyers for Roxane Davis filed papers in Los Angeles Superior Court on January 28th stating that the case was resolved, but not disclosing any terms. Along with the aforementioned incident, Davis cited 19 "causes of action" including a verbal tirade, retaliation, wrongful termination, assault and battery.

Yep, snow sucks. It's that moment where you realise not only do you have no grip whatsoever but your brakes aren't going to do a thing, funfunfun.

I think all people associated with reality shows should be punched in the face. Johnny, I salute you, but since you were associated with a reality show, go ahead and punch yourself in the face.

Johnny Rotten punches a woman in the face because he is unhappy with the hotel she gets him. Was it not posh enough for the former Sex Pistol?!

Hey! You call this slop? Real slop has got chunks in it! This is more like gruel! And this Château le Blanc '68 is supposed to be served slightly chilled! This is room temperature! What do you think we are, animals?

Between that and the hotel NOT having human bedwarmer service, I suppose I also would have punched her.
