Celebrity Justice
Dude Looks Like a Lady!

Click to return to TMZ.comIn his opening statement in the Phil Spector case, prosecutor Alan Jackson told the jury that actress Lana Clarkson initially thought Spector was a woman!

The B movie actress only found out Spector was a man when she confronted him about not being on the guest list for the House of Blues, where she was working as a hostess.

Spector has been charged with killing the blonde bombshell at his California home in 2003.

Defense attorneys are supposed to speak this afternoon.

2. Lock up this nut job before he shoots someone else, I've had enough of Phil Specter, and his weirdo behavior, go away little man, and never come back.

3. Regarding the Phil Spector case, do you think his ex-wife Roni Spector will be asked to testify? I vaguely remember reading (back in the day) where she was held hostage at gun point, treated like a prisoner and only escaped barefooted when he fell asleep one night. I'm wondering if she ever wrote a book of her life with Mr. Spector.

4. So thats why he shot her? Cause she mistook him for a woman? Not sure what the prosecutor has in mind with that as part of his opening statement.. But wont matter, he's going to swing after the show the evidence and his propensity to wave guns in womens faces over the years.

Please Judge, make up for OJ and Blake by putting this man away for the rest of his natural life where looking like a Lady will make him more popular than even the Wall of Sound he invented was.

A sick twisted perverted litle reclusive man who thought his own mortality was greater than the woman he murdered.

May he be forever known as a murderer and not for any contributions made to the world of Audio.

7. An accident my ass. This little twerp was known for his obsession with guns. He's guilty but wont be found guilty-OJ anyone?

8. Oh my God this man must be found guilty. Is he nuts? Is he just simply a bastard? He's guilty as sin, that I'm sure of. Poor Lana - if only she had known that free tour of his "castle" would be her last. His defense wants to say she had blowback on her own hands? HELLO - let someone shove a gun in my face and I'm pretty certain I'll try to grab it and pull it away! Maybe that's how it even happened - did he accidentally shoot her when she tried to pull it out of her mouth??? Did anyone else just realize his freak hairstyles are WIGS? WIGS? Who is making those things for him? Bad hairstyles obviously but they look like natural hair gone bad to me. I wish I could watch every minute of this coverage.

9. For someone who has been said to be an extreme misogynist, he sure loves looking like woman. Anyway, throw the book at this gender-bending bitch already, ugh.

10. This trial is a complete waste of taxpayer money, since the entire world knows he is going to walk. The judge will say "It's OK, Phil, just be more careful next time. Here is a tiny little slap on your wrist, and can I have your autograph? Then you're free to go. Oh, but first let us give you a couple of million for all your trouble."

The California justice system is a joke and this trial will prove it. Again.

11. Great....more of our tax dollars going to waste on this freakshow of a trial. My only question would be...WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE???

12. What a freakin wierdo.....

13. Phil Spector - To know, know, know him is to love, love, love him.......NOT! This little creep should be locked up immediately. He knows that he killed Lana Clarkson. Lana was a beautiful woman so full of life etc. I just cannot believe this beautiful girl would kill herself, sure she was a B movie actress, but she still had hopes of making it big in the business, most actor's do. I am sure she rejected Phil's advances and he got his gun (as so many other women have said) and was so drunk that he actually shot poor Lana. Now he is trying to get out of this. He needs to go to a mental hospital and get help (maybe never to be released back into society again) because he is definitely SICK. So what if he is famous, big deal. He has killed an innocent woman for no reason (except her trying to escape his gross advances on her). Rember folks, reports say poor Lana STILL had her purse on her arm when they found her. Ladies when we put our purse on our arm, we are "RET 2 GO!"
