A federal judge in New
York on Tuesday called it "preposterous" that Anna Nicole
Smith would have watched an alleged tape of her ex-boyfriend
Larry Birkhead and lawyer Howard K. Stern (pictured,
left, with Smith) having gay sex, reports the
New York Post.
"One point that I find troubling is that Anna Nicole Smith
would entertain herself by watching this videotape," said
Judge Denny Chin, apparently at ease with making an assumption
about the deceased model's intimate
preferences.
Judge Chin was
responding to arguments related to former MSNBC anchor Rita
Cosby's motion to dismiss a $60 million libel suit against her.
Cosby and publisher Hachette Book Group USA are being sued by
Stern, who claims defamation based on parts of Cosby's book,
Blonde Ambition: The Untold Story Behind Anna Nicole
Smith's Death
.
Lawyers say that the
alleged videotape of Stern and Birkhead does not exist.
