Leighton Meester Born in Jail per STAR Mag

[dajrekshn]

absolutely. her family affair seems like a drama movie.

 

[LUXXX]

True, she could've become a Lindsay Lohan-esque train wreck, but she seems too strong for that. It's tough when your parents are worthless because there are times when you really do need them around.

Go Leighton!

Leighton's mom had her in jail, she has no case here. This is just sad coming from her own mother, after how Leighton handled the previous scandal and in every interview she was gracious towards her she goes and sues her? Eff her!

 

[Aqua Tofana]

This makes me like Leighton as a person even more, I hope she will stay strong and go through this without losing too much.

Go Leighton!

Leighton's mom had her in jail

for accuracy's sake: her mother had her in a halfway house, not jail

Oh lord.. I don't know how reliable this is but it's out there...

Leighton Meester's mom is firing back after her daughter sued her last week -- claiming in a new countersuit, Leighton threw her to the ground back in December ... "repeatedly hitting her with a bottle."


According to the countersuit, filed in L.A. County Superior Court, at 2:00 AM on December 11, 2010, the "Gossip Girl" actress attacked her mom with the bottle and was so crazed she had to be pulled off her mom by her little brother.

Constance Meester says it's true ... Leighton sent her $7,500 every month, but that was not out of the goodness of her heart. It was -- Constance claims -- a settlement for all the money she helped make for her daughter.

Story developing...

I read a lot of those "I helped my daughter get where she is" comments from her mother, anyone knows what she did exactly? was she her manager or something like that?

 

[dajrekshn]

she is or was that is. i think she got, as a manager a restraining order against someone after she attacked someone.

Leighton Meester 'wants custody of brother' after accusing mother of spending money sent for him

Gossip Girl star Leighton Meester wants full custody of her younger brother because she believes their mother isn't prioritising his welfare.
Leighton, 25, sent $7,500 each month to Constance Meester, to help pay for her illness-plagued brother's ongoing medical treatment.

But in a lawsuit filed last week, the Texan-born beauty asserted that the money was spent on cosmetic surgery for her mother instead.

And now she wants to removed Alexander from her mother's care in California, so he can live with her permanently in New York.

'Leighton is disgusted by her mother and is determined to get her brother Lex out of that situation,' an insider told RadarOnline.com.
'She wants Lex to leave their mom's California home and come to live with her in New York.'
According to the lawsuit, the website continues, Leighton provided her mother and brother with money out of the goodness of her heart, but she's now tired of her mother's lifestyle.
Leighton's younger brother, Alexander, has suffered myriad health problems, including recent brain surgery, according to the July 22 suit.
'Although [Constance] is healthy and physically able to work, Constance refuses to do so. Instead, Constance expects her daughter [Leighton] to support her financially,' it states.
'Leighton is really close to her brother, so she just hates that she can't be there to help him more,' the source continued.

It's turning into a dirty fight between the young actress and the mother who gave birth her in jail after a drug smuggling conviction.
Yesterday Constance issued a counter-attack upon her successful daughter by insisting that she had assaulted her.

Constance claims that the star threw her to the ground and repeatedly 'hit her with a bottle' during an altercation on December 11 last year.
Her suit, which was filed in L.A. County Superior Court, states that Alexander was forced to intervene to break up the fight, according to TMZ.
They also reported that Constance, used the monthly allowance from Leighton money for Botox, hair extensions, plastic surgery and other personal expenses.
Constance claims that she and her daughter had a verbal contract in which Leighton promised to give her mother $10,000 a month for the rest of her life.
The unemployed 55-year-old plans to sue Leighton for $3 million is the actress refuses to pay her the money.
According to TMZ, Leighton has asked a judge to rule that there is no such contract between them.
Earlier this year, Constance was issued a restraining order after making death threats against a Californian woman and her young son.
She allegedly threatened to 'hunt down and kill' Laurel Wigg and her son, according to legal documents, during an altercation on January 21.
Court documents filed with the Los Angeles Superior Court claim that Leighton's mother - who was also her manager - 'is a drug addict and made a threat to kill us.'
In an interview with Grazia magazine last year, Leighton stood by her mother, who she called 'an inspiratio.'
'My mother Connie inspires me. She's an amazing woman,' she said. 'When I was a kid I wanted to be an actress and she completely backed me. She is her own person, very eccentric, very individual.'

WOW, her mother sounds like such a horrible person.
how mom can do that to her own daughter?
and that money was to her brother who is sick
(and it sounds like he has some serious sickness,
not just a flu)
not to her mom to spend in botox.
horrible horrible horrible,
this is something i cannot understand.

This is so sad, I hope she gets away from this psycho mother.

You know the Mom is going to go to the tabs and make up lies about Leighton and try and ruin her reputation and career.

 

[kokobombon]

^yeah, it´s good that she sounds crazy so she doesn´t have much credibility...

you have this idea of what a mom should be like/act like and then you have the sad reality that because you gave birth doesn´t mean you´ll treat your children right, love them or have any motherly instinct at all... it´s really sad

 

[Niusity]

Her mom really has some issues, Leighton has always supported her mom and she said many times that she loves her and she doesn't care because of the mistakes her mom made when she was young so if there is a public scandal in their family now I really think Leighton is right and she knows what she's doing.

 

[kobro22]

I just hope this does not affect her career. SHe is such a talent, and I really hope she get the right vehicle to prove what a huge star she can be.

 

[Irena_K]

I really feel for Leighton Her mom kind of reminds me of my mom so I can pretty much relate how some "mothers" can be.

 

[CommanderTMugler]

How old is Leightons brother?

 

[kokobombon]

^15 I think...
