Mini-Me at the PinkiTude fashion show in L.A. (8/14)
ini-Me has a new girlfriend: 22-year-old Dominique Arganese. And she's hot! Or at least hotter than that fug chick he made a sex tape with. An insider told In Touch Weekly:
"He wants to be with her all the time. It's already getting serious." The 39-year-old Austin Powers star recently jetted to Las Vegas with the Montreal-based beauty for a romantic weekend. On September 13, they had dinner at Strip House in Las Vegas. "They drank cocktails and were kissing," a witness reports. "They spent every minute together and seemed in love." Verne split with aspiring actress Ranae Shrider, who appeared in the sex tape with him, almost four months ago. The new duo partied at Las Vegas' Privé on September 14. "He looked happy!" says an insider.
Gentlemen, listen up. If you want to get laid, there's only one surefire way: become famous. It's as easy as that. Don't bother exercising, getting an education, or working. Those things are for chumps. Just get a bit role in a played-out movie franchise and you'll be banging models for the rest of your life. Which, in Mini-Me's case, is 2-4 months if he keeps downing champagne like that. For a normal guy like myself, that glass he's holding is equivalent to a case . . . wait, 3% body fat is still "normal" right? OK, whew. I didn't want you guys thinking I was some kind of freak.

Mini-Me and Ranae Shrider
So you know Ranae Shrider, the chick who fucked Mini-Me? Turns out she has a lawyer and he loves picking on midgets. And implying that they have STDs. Via TMZ:
Ranae Shrider's legal mouthpiece, Keith Davidson, is raggin' on Verne claiming he can't pay his taxes "because he is paying his lawyer hundreds of thousands of dollars to file ridiculous lawsuits." He cites, among other things, the suit against TMZ for running the sex tape story, which was dismissed.Davidson calls Verne "a small-minded, vindictive, heartbroken, desperate and trivial celebrity," adding, "Mr. Troyer would be better served retiring his Federal and state tax obligations rather than suing a girl who he dated for only three months before videotaping their diminutive sessions."
Shrider's lawyer ends with the following shot: "Ms. Shrider would still like to thank Mr. Troyer for the 'lasting' gifts he has imparted her with." (Source)
How low can a scumbag lawyer go? Apparently 2 feet 8 inches. And to say that Verne is "small minded" is hardly a ground breaking revelation -- the guy has a head the size of a Cabbage Patch Kid. Let's just hope that the "lasting gift" the little guy left Ranae isn't an unwanted pregnancy. Because the last thing Verne needs right now is to show up at a Planned Parenthood facility and be confused with one of their "clients".
Mini-Me suing ex-girlfriend Ranae Shrider
Verne Troyer aka Mini-Me is suing his ex-girlfriend and sex tape partner Ranae Shrider, claiming the 22-year-old beat the hell out of him. In official terms, Troyer is accusing Shrider of "intentional infliction of emotional distress and battery." The little guy's lawyer, Ed McPherson, told TMZ:
"When you pick up a 2'8" human being and throw him to the floor, it hurts."In the lawsuit, Troyer basically says the chick terrorized him, once picked the lock to his bedroom door, pushing away a 100 pound scooter that was used to block the door, and then throwing him to the floor Troyer claims his damages from all that Schrider did to him exceed $20 million.

Good luck to Verne getting any of that $20 million from his ex. That chick was so broke, she was willing to sell a video of herself getting violated by a fetus. At this point, Verne would have better luck getting money out of an IndyMac bank. If Verne really wants to make millions of dollars, there's only one way other no-talents in Hollywood are doing it these days: getting pregnant.
Ranae Shrider is bullying Mini-Me
This whole Mini-Me sex tape scandal is finally coming into focus. The tape wasn't stolen or anything -- Mini-Me's ex Ranae Shrider is the one trying to profit from it. Remember late last month when it was revealed that Renae and Mini-Me are still living together? That's definitely true, though the couple is on less than friendly terms. Basically she's a total bitch. From E!:
"(Ranae's) still in the house," Verne revealed to E! News. While he seeks legal action to force his former flame out, Verne's not leaving, either, a situation he claims "makes it even harder, to, you know, not strangle her."
Life at home isn't easy. In addition to living with the woman who's attempting to profit from the tape, the actor alleges that Ranae's now harassing him.
"I saw her when I left today, and she was calling me names and stuff...so I can't get away from it," Verne explained. (Source)
Of course they're still sharing the same apartment -- Ranae can't afford anything else! She's so broke she was willing to pawn a video of herself doing the nasty with a guy that looks like a third-trimester abortion. Of course the biggest question about this whole arrangement: is Verne considered Renae's "Sugar Daddy" or "Sugar Baby"?
Ranae Shrider in L.A. (6/26)
Paparazzi managed to track down Ranae Shrider (the co-star of the Mini-Me sex tape) yesterday at a Starbucks in L.A. Renae admitted that she still lives with Mini-Me in the same apartment where the sex tape was shot . . . Oh god, that means she's probably still having sex with him. I know this goes without saying but -- if you're gonna have sex with Mini-Me -- don't break out the videocamera. Because without the proof of a videotape, you can deny it happened afterwards. That's why I rarely videotape myself masturbating. It's way easier to convince myself it never happened. I'm sorry Mother. *hangs head in shame*
Ranae Shrider is the co-star of Mini-Me's sex tape
In Touch Weekly is claiming the woman in the Mini-Me sex tape is 22-year-old actress Ranae Shrider. The magazine says she lived with Troyer for six months and "thought she would marry him." Sorry I couldn't find any better pics. It's a shame, too, because I'd love to have a high res pic of her before she's permanently disfigured from lighting herself on fire.
Of course she knows Paris
UPDATE: More pics!
Mini Me leaving The Ivy in Beverly Hills (1/30)
I love Mini Me as much as the next guy but should this guy really be driving? Call me crazy but I'm thinking that if you can't see over the steering wheel maybe you shouldn't have a license. And yes, if this post reeks of bitterness it's because Mini Me owns a god damn Mercedes and I don't.
