Ever wonder what happened to Denise Rich? No, neither have I - once it became clear she wasn't going to be indicted in Bubba's last minute pardons scandal. Well she's made the gossip columns again in 'MOTHER' OF INSULTS:
The Montreal mogul embroiled in a multimillion-dollar lawsuit with Denise Rich says he'd never have sex with the money-squandering socialite - because she reminds him too much of his mother.Hmmmm ... interesting family!
"I never, ever had sex with that woman," said metal trader and art collector Herbie Black, paraphrasing Bill Clinton - who is still under investigation for pardoning Denise's ex-hubby, fugitive billionaire Marc Rich, on tax-evasion charges.Snort!
In the latest he-said-she-said court bust-up, Rich filed court papers this week accusing Black of promising a "future together" if she let him manage her finances. That was after Black filed suit against Rich last August, claiming that she broke her promise to pay him once he spurned her sexual advances.Film at 11? And don't you love people that refer to themselves in the 3rd person?
"I've never made a pass at her," Black said. "There was no breakup because she was never my lover.
"Denise reminds me of my mother, and I've told her so on many occasions."
Besides, Black said, the whole time he was chastely jet-setting around the world with Rich, he was shacked up with Larissa Abrahamyan, a 31-year-old part-time Hermes sales clerk.
"I've been living with a 5-foot-10, gorgeous, divine individual for the last 21/2 to three years, and Denise is fully aware of that fact. Larissa is half Trinidadian and half Armenian. She's a raving beauty," Black said.
"Puh-lease, I mean honestly. Why would Herbie go out with a 59-year-old grandmother? Is that my style? If she was some sexy, hot chick, I'd consider, but it's utter nonsense."
Black said Rich signed a contract that gave him permission to manage her $200 million fortune, which has since dropped to $125 million.More blather by following the link. Sounds like they all could use a good dose of Raid. But we already knew that, didn't we?
Black's lawsuit, filed in Manhattan Federal Court, accuses Rich and her company, Denise Joy Inc., of breach of contract.
In the contract, Black says Rich agreed to give him four months to find a buyer for her music business and to manage her personal fortune, which is shrinking dramatically due to what he calls her "ridiculous" spending.
