Farrah A on #CBBrawl; Janice Dickinson lawsuit
Farrah Abraham has spoken out about what happened on Celebrity Big Brother's Bit On The Side last Tuesday night.

Quote:
Farrah, what happened at the BB BOTS recording on 22nd September 2015?
"I was assaulted twice by Aisleyne Horgan Wallace and Janice Dickinson.
After speaking with the police and my lawyer, I have pressed charges against Aisleyne and am considering issuing a lawsuit against Janice."
Press reports claim Vicki Michelle pressed charges against you because you threw a glass at her at BB BOTS, is this true?
"In regards to Vicki pressing charges against me, I can confirm I was neither arrested nor convicted of anything. I was already liaising with the police in regards to everything which happened at BB BOTS because my manager was the first party to call the police that night. To clear my name, of my own free will, I explained to the police what really happened with Vicki. They looked over the BB BOTS video footage in detail and said no crime had been committed and therefore no charges were made against me."
So did you purposely throw a glass at Vicki?
"No, absolutely not! I was deeply shocked and traumatised following the initial attack by Aisleyne and was very frightened she was going to attack me again or glass me, so my natural instinct was to jump up and do something to defend myself to make Aisleyne back-off. As a defence mechanism, I threw an empty Champagne glass towards the wall and unfortunately Vicki got caught in the crossfire 100% by accident. It was apparent from the BB BOTS' footage that the glass was not aimed at Vicki or anyone else, I would never throw a glass directly at someone or deliberately want to cause them harm."
Aisleyne and Vicki went to the press almost immediately after the incident to reveal their side of the story. Why have you waited until now to speak out?
"Running immediately to a publication and selling a story for a fast buck wasn't my first priority, it was to seek medical attention, recover and correctly deal with the legal side of things first. I'm only revealing my side of the story now to clear-up any false rumours but am not receiving a fee for this, it would be distasteful to make money selling stories from the unfortunate events which took place at BB BOTS."
Aisleyne allegedly says your claim that you were assaulted twice is false, what's your response?
"Perhaps she is uneducated and doesn't understand the definition of assault."
Was Aisleyne hostile from the first moment you met her on BB BOTS?
"Yes! When I first joined the BOTS panel Vicki Michelle introduced me to Aisleyne and I smiled and said hi. She stared at her Champagne glass and deliberately ignored me, shed exuded anger and hostility."
How did Aisleyne assault you?
"I don't wish to discuss this because the police are dealing with this matter as we speak.
I will say though that I believe Aisleyne's attack on me was pre-mediated because of some Tweets she put on Twitter a few days prior to BB BOTS, which she has since removed. I'm convinced she wanted to cause me harm and start trouble.
If I hadn't of thrown a glass on the floor and at the wall in defence to make her back off, I believe she may have attacked me further. I was frightened by her hostility and behaviour."
Janice Dickinson claims she threw a chair at you to protect Vicki, what are your thoughts on this?
"After I threw the Champagne glasses to try to make Aisleyne back-off I turned round and walked away to leave the set. I didn't want to be attacked again or things to escalate, I chose to remove myself from the hostile situation.
As I walked away though, Janice hurled a chair aggressively towards me with great force. I was deeply shocked by her aggressive behavior, especially seeing as she is a more mature lady. Janice was not protecting Vicki because, 1) I was not attacking Vicki and, 2), I had my back turned and was walking away from the set. This was evident on the video footage"
Do you have final comments about the night's events?
"I believe Aisleyne was out to provoke me that day and planned a pre-mediated attack. The morning of the show, my manager contacted BB BOTS and asked them to put me in a separate dressing room away from Aisleyne because my manager was aware of threatening and negative comments Aisylene had previously made towards me on Twitter and in her columns. Aisleyne was hostile from the first moment we met on the panel and, when she attacked me I felt scared, shocked and threatened by her. The truth is I only threw a glass at the wall to try to protect myself from further harm and to make Aisleyne back-off, I'm truly sorry Vicki got caught in the crossfire by accident, but I wasn't arrested or convicted of anything. If Aisleyne had behaved appropriately to begin with, everything would have been fine. I'm devastated things turned so sour as a result of Aisleyne's negative attack on me and that she has shown no remorse for her actions. As for Janice's assault on me, I'm deeply upset by it and had to cancel work as a result of my injuries and emotional distress, which is a great shame.
On a more positive note, I'd like to say a big thank you to my fans for their continued love and support! You're the best!"
