Former Simple Life star Nicole Richie's ex-boyfriend Adam Goldstein has launched legal action against a New York City newspaper over a story about the former couple's break-up. Goldstein,better known as DJ Am, proposed to Nicole in 2004, but the couple called off their engagement the following year. Now the DJ is suing the
New York Daily News for libel and invasion of privacy over a story about the breakup. In papers filed at Los Angeles California Superior Court on June 27, Goldstein has hit back at the article, which focused on his financial affairs and his DJing career. The lawsuit states, "DJ AM's career has continued to thrive. Even though a minimal amount of research would have, at the very least, caused Daily News to have entertained serious doubts about the credibility of its supposed source(s), defendants appear to have elected time to publish the sloppy and false article." Goldstein is seeking at least $10 million in damages, and a permanent injunction banning further publication of the information included in the Daily News article.
