Perez Hilton Announces Boycott of Sony/BMG Artists

After Perez Hilton posted streams of songs that may or may not have been the work of Britney Spears (it turned out they were), Sony/BMG and its subsidiary Zomba filed a lawsuit against the gossip site. Hilton claims the suit is unfair because the songs were not downloadable. Now, PerezHilton.com has announced a short list of artists that are "dead to [them]," including Tori Amos, Celine Dion, Christina Aguilera, Jennifer Lopez, The Gossip, Adele, Lil' Mama, Pink, Usher, Justin Timberlake, and Whitney Houston.
