Taylor Lautner Reportedly Settles RV Suit, Donates Money

(GettyImages.com)

Taylor Lautner has reportedly settled his lawsuit against McMahon RV and donated the $40,000 to a children’s charity.

At the center of the controversy was a trailer that Lautner claims the company failed to deliver after he ordered it for the shoot of his film Abduction. McMahon disputed his claim.

The actor reached an agreement with the RV firm on Friday, according to Us Weekly, and will donate the money to the Lollipop Theater Network, an organization that brings movies currently in theaters to children who are confined to hospitals.

Brent McMahon originally challenged Lautner to resolve the matter with a push-ups competition, which the actor’s attorney, Robert Barta, said demonstrated McMahon’s “lack of professionalism.”

    Well, at least some good will come out him being a diva! Well played for all the PR there, Taylor. Will this boy ever stop annoying me and the rest of the world? I doubt it.

  • commonsense

    al i cant believe u say he was being a diva , he was not the diva the RV companywas challenging taylor to a pushup competition really made the company look pathetic and made sense for Taylor and his reps to be upset!!

    and FYI TAYLOR IS NOT JACOB FOR GODS SAKE STOP WITH THE STUPID HATE OVER THE GUY, really makes the twifans look like immature little girls

  • NoJustNo

    To a children’s charity ? Is this some sort of pre apology for what goes on in Breaking Dawn ? Because Jacob loves children a little too much ? psml

  • CrazyCelebJustice

    Congrats on the decision to donate the money Taylor.

    @at nojustno….jacob isn’t real…the story isn’t real…every celebrity has a charity or two that they always give money too…so he gives it to kids who have cancer who wont possibly make it…is that so wrong of him to do?

  • waterfan

    Must remind Gossip Cop YET again that the lawsuit wasn’t just because the trailer arrived late. It also was unsafe to drive and had mechanical problems. Taylor paid UPFRONT to get those problems fixed and they didn’t fix it. Giving people money to fix a used RV and deliver it on time is part of signing a contract. IF they business takes your money and doesn’t do the work, it’s breach of contract and fraud. That’s what the legal system is for.

    @noJustNo, The Lollipop Theater Network is a charity that Taylor Lautner has been donating to since he was a kid. I swear, Taylor can find the cure for Cancer and you silly haters would still find some reason to bash him. Get over it and grow the fvck up he is not Jacob. He is an actor playing Jacob.

    Jacob, Edward, and Bella are NOT real. If you were to read the book, Jacob doesn’t “love children too much”. His character imprints on a baby which means he marks her as a future wife when she grows up, that’s it. But you are delusional anyway so no point in carrying out a logical argument.

    really i think thats really screwed up to get paid 40k from a rv company to not deliver something on time
    obviously the kid is being ridiculous so i guess it would be in good taste to boycott his movies
    while 40k isnt alot of money to him it could very well break a busineess

    @ted409 I gather you’re really comfortable announcing your ignorance and idiocy to the world.

    glad it got settled, and Taylor is donating the money. It shows that he wasn’t being a diva, he was just pissed off at the company and wanted to teach them a lesson! I mean, come on, a push-up competition?
    the company obviously thought the breach of contract was a joke and they could get away with it cause he’s famous!

    And @waterfan sadly, people will always compare Taylor to Jacob, and make fun of him, but don’t take it too much to heart, we all know he’s way more then Jacob! :) [and i'm saying that as a rob fan! :O ]

    @Ted409 boycott his films cause he donated the money he won to charity? Seriously? It may be a lot for a company to pay out, but they’re obviously not professional enough to deserve that money anyway. Wonder how many other people they’ve screwed over?? Well done to Taylor for bringing this to light!
