Tom Hanks is being dragged into the middle of a legal war over The Beatles. Tom’s wife, Rita Wilson, just had to have a 1962 vintage Beatles poster priced at $75,000 as a gift for Hanks. According to legal papers filed in L.A. County Superior Court, Wilson agreed to ante up — provided the seller, Melissa Pearl, coughed up a certificate of authenticity. When Pearl came up dry, Wilson said she would bail on the deal.

That’s when Pearl, “became belligerent” demanding not only the $75k but an additional $300,000 “for what Pearl absurdly characterized as her time and trouble to obtain the evidence requested by Wilson that the poster was authentic.” Wilson wants a judge to declare she can legally walk from the deal.

If you didn’t have sex in the first few days, you were either frigid or a lesbian. So I held out – and, boy, am I glad I did! . . . [Cash and I] are not a typical Hollywood couple. I love that he’s not an actor. I’m way too high maintenance to be in a relationship with an actor – they’re all such divas! . . . Nothing was planned – the pregnancy or the wedding. But he took it in his stride and convinced me we’d conquer all!” (Source)
