Newmar Insists Belushi's Also To Blame in Neighbor War
Veteran actress Julie Newmar has spoken out about James Belushi's accusations she launched a "campaign of harassment" on him - and she insists they're both to blame. Newmar, who played Catwoman in the 1960s television series Batman, was recently slapped with a $4 million lawsuit from next-door neighbor Belushi, who claims the actress destroyed a fence and landscaping at the home in their upscale Brentwood, California, neighborhood. Red Heat actor Belushi also claims Newmar repeatedly made defamatory statements about him to neighbors and friends. The lawsuit also claims Newmar spied on Belushi's family from her residence and caused a nuisance by playing loud music directed at his backyard. And while Belushi says the actions of the alleged actress caused emotional distress and harmed his reputation and career, Newmar believes both of them acted inappropriately. She says, "I think it's like children misbehaving and just doing things that we oughtn't to do." Newmar has no plans to counter-sue and hopes the case will be settled soon.
