He's getting sued based on copyright images. My guess, is it'll all get settled for a bunch of $$ that he's already racked in, and the site will go on.

Chris, you need to read more closely. X17 is after this guys ass in a major way. They aren't going to settle for a few dollars and let him go on. They won't stop until this guy is shut down solid.
Candid, exclusive celeb pictures are very expensive to license. Perez Hilton has probably use tens of millions of dollars worth of images on the site, and more importantly, has continued to use them long after being notified over and over again that he wasn't permitted to use them. There is no "oops, I didn't know", this guy is trying to use the satirical fair use concept to protect himself... which is a losing battle.
He was hosting in Australia because he figured it would be harder for X17 to get after him. They still got to him.
Latest hosting?

The second or third to last place you can hide these days... that for me is a sure sign of guilt from the word go.
