WWW- Colin Farrell and estranged girlfriend Nicole Narain are banding together to stop the release of their infamous sex tape.
The "Alexander" star and the former Playboy Playmate have been fighting for months over whether the world should see their hard-core home movie.
She wants to cash in on it. He doesn't. Yesterday, both of them were blindsided when someone offered the tape on the Internet for $14.95.
"We're extremely upset," Narain's lawyer Leodis Matthews told us after learning of the existence of the Web www.dirtycolin.com. "This is a black-market release. Nicole is not getting a dime from this. We're outraged - $14.95 is a ridiculous figure."
Matthews said he and Farrell's lawyer, Martin Singer, both wanted the Federal District Court in L.A. to shut down dirtycolin.com. As of last night, it appeared they succeeded.
The attorneys certainly weren't on the same page Monday afternoon, when Singer grilled Narain during a deposition stemming from Farrell's bid to stop her releasing the tape. Matthews said Singer asked his client whether she had ever taken part in a drug deal.
"I instructed her not to answer the question," said Matthews. "Many of his questions were inappropriate. They were geared more to attack and intimidate than to discover legitimate information."
Sources said dirtycolin.com was registered by one "John Taylor" to a server in Coral Gables, Fla.
Also fuming over dirtycolin.com are Phoenix-based agent David Hans Schmidt and Internet Commerce Group mogul Sal Abbate, who had plans to market the tape with Narain.
Abbate said the bootleg release spoiled their deal. "We could have gotten as much as $50 for [each copy of] this," he said. Schmidt thinks Farrell could still cover himself in glory by agreeing to an authorized release. "Instead of chasing phantoms we should come together and form a joint venture," he said. "Let's beat these SOBs."
