That stripper who sold those pictures of Oscar de la Hoya dressed in drag is suing him. Milana Dravnel is filing the papers in Manhattan state Supreme Court against de la Hoya and two unnamed defendants for alleged fraud, defamation, interference with contract, infliction of emotional distress and undue influence, her lawyer said. "[They] did everything [they] could to thwart her being able to sell this, saying they weren't real, photo-shopped, and that she didn't know what she was doing . . . that she was just a stripper," said her high-powered attorney Salvatore Strazullo. He says people in de la Hoya's camp contacted his client and threatened her to keep silent and keep the damaging photographs to herself. "There were so many people involved. Phone calls from people saying they were FBI agents or speaking on behalf of FBI agents. They did everything," Strazullo said. "It's the perfect case of David against Goliath and she got Goliath Junior on their case." When the pictures emerged publicly in September, Dravnel sold them for $70,000 to a West Coast photo agency. De la Hoya's camp denied they were real and insisted they had been doctored.
