Update: Perez Hilton Accuses Will.I.Am Of A Beatdown

Update: The general manager of the Black Eyed Peas, Polo Molina, has turned himself into the Toronto police station and charged with one count of assault. He is due to appear at Toronto's Old City Hall court on August 5.

While the winners of last night's MuchMusic Video Awards deserved all the praise and well wishes from last night, the big story today is what happened AFTER the show.

Celeb gossip blogger Perez Hilton is accusing Black Eyed Peas front man Will.I.Am and their manager Polo Molina of physically attacking him! The blogger claims that the musician and his manager struck him outside of a Toronto club after the two exchanged words at an afer-party.

Perez started a series of intense Tweets around 3:45 A.M. "I was assaulted by Will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas and his security guards. I am bleeding. Please, I need to file a police report. No joke."

Now, both have proclaimed their side of the story via their respective websites (of course).

Check them Perez's video here, watch Will.I.Am's statement below, and then decide for yourself who you want to believe.

“He claims Will.I.am of the Black Eyed Peas was the one who hit him, and instead of calling the police, Perez started tweeting about. Scope out Perez's tweets which essentially ruin whatever legitimacy Twitter gained from the Iranian election.”

If this is true, Will.i.am should be given the Congressional Medal of Honor for taking that turd with ears down a peg or two.

"Someone like Will.i.am" and "people like that"? Care to clarify?

Considering how butt ugly Hilton is, he should never run his mouth about certain celebs, or criticize them ever again. Not to mention he's basically a nobody. Hell any idiot with a modicum of knowledge can run a celebrity gossip blog.

Will didn't hit him, the GM of the band did, hence turning himself in for it...doesn't anyone read around here??

Either way, Perez is a bitch that needed a smack, and for the twittering about it: Grow up.

I hate how Perez thinks he can call people faggots, and call someone Fugly and nothing will happen. I understand the violence probably isn't the best way to go, but seriously - you can't say things about people that are slanderous and with hatred. He wants to voice his opinion, but when the pageant girl did he had a problem. Cry baby, and publicity stunt. Also, he says he was bleeding and got his 2 or 3 times, his face is maybe a little red in his video.....you don't bleed or get hit in the eyes 2 or 3 times without some bruising.
