Selena Gomez Subpoenaed In Justin Bieber Lawsuit Over Paparazzi Attack

Selena Subpoenaed In Bieber Lawsuit, May Be Asked About 'Pillow Talk'

Weeks ago during a deposition in Miami, Justin Bieber told a lawyer representing a cameraman in an alleged assault case to not ask him any questions regarding Selena Gomez.

Now lawyers won't need to bug Bieber since they've subpoenaed Gomez herself in one of the lawsuits against the downward-spiraling pop star.

TMZ reports Gomez was recently subpoenaed to testify in a lawsuit a Los Angeles paparazzo filed against Bieber, claiming the singer "karate kicked" the cameraman in the stomach back in 2012. The cameraman claims Gomez was present when the incident transpired so they would like her under oath to explain what she witnessed.

As well, the website says "her pillow talk" with Bieber could uncover "bitter feelings and short trigger when it comes to paparazzi."

Lawyers for the photographer who filed a lawsuit in the Miami incident also hoped Gomez would be questioned in a deposition for that specific case. However, Gomez wasn't present when that alleged assault took place, so "it's all about pillow talk."

As reported earlier this month, Bieber was fuming when questioned whether Gomez was present when any alleged assault concerning a photographer took place. "Don't ask me about her, do not ask me about her!" Bieber reportedly yelled at the lawyer representing Jeffrey Binion.

Bieber's trial date for his January, 2014 incident in Miami Beach is May 5. Bieber is charged with driving under the influence, resisting arrest without violence and driving with an invalid driver's license. The singer didn't appear for a March 10 court appearance in Toronto stemming from a December, 2013 incident involving an alleged assault of a limo driver.
