Larry Birkhead Strikes Back At OK!
So here is the deal. First, OK! accuses Larry Birkhead of some shenanigans with Howard K. Stern. As a result, they pulled their 1.7 million deal for Danilynne’s first birthday party pictures.
OK! magazine had this to say.
It breaks my heart that OK! has to pull out of a shoot that would have chronicled the next great chapter of Dannielynn’s life. That sort of celebration is what the magazine enjoys most.
But first and foremost, we — and I — care dearly about the well-being of the young one, and my moral obligation lies with her. So, it’s unfortunate, but at the moment, my biggest fear is that Larry and Howard may have tricked us all.
Now, Larry is calling foul. He says that OK! is being vindictive because of a proposed cover deal with Us.
“I asked out of courtesy, and OK! magazine went through the roof,” Birkhead said, adding that the glossy was also irked by the invite to Dannielynn’s party turning up in InTouch. “They can’t stand it if one other magazine has one other little detail.”
One email from OK!, Birkhead claimed, warned he’d be the subject of “horrid” coverage if he went ahead with the Us story. In the end, Birkhead did the Us interview, and according to him, he got the “horrid” treatment.
Larry believes the allegations of Stern collusion came from reporter Rita Cosby who’s written a book on Anna Nicole.
Birkhead is planning on suing Cosby and OK!.
