Tony Lopez Reportedly Heading to Court over 2021 Lawsuit

It seems like all the controversies surrounding Tony Lopez will be over in 2023.

Lopez has been accused of grooming minors and sending explicit pictures to them. On top of that, he was accused of sexual battery, emotional distress, and soliciting explicit photos. 

The TikToker denied all the allegations, but regardless, there was a lawsuit filed against him by two girls who claimed to be the victims of Lopez’s grooming.

The lawsuit is about the alleged sexual battery and emotional distress, and a court trial date has been recently announced. 

Trial to be held in May 2023

It has been officially announced that the hearing for the lawsuit —  H.L. Doe Et Al. VS Tony Lopez Et Al. —  will be taking place in May 2023.

The lawsuit was filed in Los Angeles County Superior Courts, and the judges who will be presiding are Virginia Keeney, David J. Cowan, Shirley K. Watkins, Ann I. Jones and Huey P. Cotton. 

Alongside Lopez, Thomas Petrou, Chase Hudson, and Cole Hudson have been named the defendant in the case. Petrou and Hudson were included in the lawsuit for negligence because the two were allegedly aware of Lopez grooming the plaintiffs.

Petrou and Hudson have also been accused of attempting to hide the truth of Lopez’s antics. On March 17, 2023, a Hearing on the Motion for Summary Judgement will take place. 

The settlement conference and non-appearance case review will be held on April 10, 2023. However, the jury trial has been set for May 17, 2023, at 9:30 AM in Department T at 6230 Sylmar Ave., Van Nuys.

Lopez, Petrou, and Hudson have not said anything about the trial at the time of writing. 

What is the lawsuit about?

The lawsuit is filed by two girls whose identity has been hidden. They are known by the aliases H.L. Doe and C.H. Doe, and they filed the case in 2021.

They alleged that Lopez tried to compel them into sexual encounters and demanded graphic images from them, despite knowing they were underage. According to the lawsuit, on January 4, 2020, Lopez participated in illicit intercourse with H.L. 

H.L. claimed that she initially told Lopez she was 16 but subsequently acknowledged to him that she was actually 15 years old. During that month, on January 19, H.L. noted they had intercourse once more. 

She pointed out that Lopez pressured her to keep their connection private. According to the court filings, C.H. met Lopez in April 2020 after being invited to the Hype House by co-founder Petrou. 

She alleges she shared social media information with Lopez and provided him with her phone number there. C.H. went on to claim that Lopez began requesting nude images from her despite knowing she was 16 at the time.

Lopez, according to C.H., also sent her images of his genitalia and frequently requested her to meet him for intercourse. However, in a statement to TMZ, Lopez denied all the accusations.

He said he never asked for their nudes and would never be with a girl if they were underage. He added, “This whole thing seems like a money grab to me. I’m going to fight it to the very end. I will not allow them to continue to slander my name and attack my character.”

Now, only the court proceedings, hearing, and trial can decide if Lopez is innocent as he claims to be or if he is guilty of grooming and sexual battery.

Gadon and her husband exchanged vows in a private ceremony on September 24, 2022, exchanging vows in front of their near and dear ones.

A month after the rumored wedding date, on October 29, 2022, Gadon offered a subtle but telling glimpse into her post-wedding life through a series of Instagram posts

On the same day, the Dracula Untold star shared a second set of photos on Instagram with the same caption featuring honey and moon emojis, but this time labeled “pt 2.”

While the details of the pair’s first encounter remain unknown, several outlets reported they met in early 2021, after Gadon’s separation from her former boyfriend Matthew Hannam.

Gadon and Hannam first crossed paths in the early 2000s on the sets of the horror movie Antiviral and started dating shortly afterward. However, they broke up in 2020.

A look at Sarah Gadon’s husband Max Fine

Fine, the husband of acclaimed actress Gadon, attended OCAD University in September 2017, where he pursued a degree in industrial and product design, ultimately graduating in April 2022.

Dua Lipa and Rosalía Reportedly Collaborating for a New Music

Fans are head over heels after hearing this!

Dua Lipa and Rosalía Reportedly Collaborating for a New Music

A musical collab between Dua Lipa and Rosalía is finally happening; at least, it seems that way.

The English-Albanian singer has been very vocal about the Spanish singer’s talents and has even been spotted fangirling over her on multiple occasions. This has led their fans to want them to do a musical collaboration. And apparently, it’s happening.

On Thursday, December 7, 2023, DeuxMoi – a pseudonymous Instagram account that publishes celebrity gossip – took to their Instagram stories to share a tip they received from an anonymous source.

The subject of the tip mentioned that Lipa and Rosalía were spotted together at the NightBird Recording Studios, a recording studio in West Hollywood, California. “Dua Lipa & Rosalía together at NightBird Recording Studios in Los Angeles (TODAY),” the subject read.

As the anonymous tipster – who has used popbopof2024 as their email – continued, they mentioned that they had seen Lipa arrive at the NightBird Recording Studios with a producer in the morning — probably in the morning of December 6, 2023.

The source added that just five minutes after Lipa entered the recording studio, Rosalía arrived at the exact location in her Ford F-150 Raptor car. “Possible collaboration? It looks like it is,” the source concluded their tip.

Since DeuxMoi published the anonymous tip on their Instagram stories, it has become a topic of discussion over X [formerly called Twitter], where fans of both musicians have shown excitement over their favorite artists’ possible collab.

For instance, one user posted a video of a woman screaming in excitement and wrote, “DUA LIPA AND ROSALÍA TOGETHER IN A STUDIO IN LOS ANGELES IS GOING TO GIVE ME SOMETHING.”

“Today is a good day to be a girl and gay because it seems like we are singing a song by Rosalía and Dua Lipa,” wrote another fangirl of Lipa and Rosalía.

That said, as of this writing, neither Lipa nor Rosalía or their respective representatives have confirmed this report. DeuxMoi’s tips should often be taken with a grain of salt, as some might be true and others might not. For now, fans of the two stars must wait for an official confirmation.

Nonetheless, the news of Lipa and Rosalía being at the same recording studio with a producer has given hope to many of their fans. As mentioned earlier, fans have been waiting for them to do a collab for a long time.

It all started in 2018 after Rosalía admired Lipa’s works and told E! News that she was always ready to collaborate with Lipa. Speaking with the outlet, she stated, “I’m a huge fan of her work. She knows, she’s a friend of mine.”

“And I would love to make music with her, you know. Now, her schedule is crazy. Mine is crazy too, but I think that for me, she knows that I’m down; you know I would love to (collab),” the Latin Grammy winner added to her statement.

A year later, Lipa showed her support for Rosalía following her New York City show. In the same year, she sent the Spanish singer a special package to celebrate the release of her new single ‘Break My Heart.’

Lipa has also been spotted vibing to Rosalía’s songs at the latter’s concert at The O2. She later shared some snaps from the concert on Instagram and wrote, “Motomamiiiii Londressssss.” In 2022, she even channeled Rosalía in a complete Motomami look.

With all that said and done, it was only a matter of time before the two friends, who have mutual respect for each other and their works, would do a musical collaboration.
