A flight attendant on a private jet carrying salsero Marc Anthony and his wife, singer/actress Jennifer Lopez, was attacked by the couple’s guard dog in flight because she was carrying eating utensils to their table.
So the flight attendant, Lisa Wilson, is suing the couple in a Brooklyn, N.Y., court over the 2006 attack in a Gulfstream jet. Wilson says the snarling dog lunged and head-butted her, causing her to fall and injure her back.
For her pain and suffering, she is demanding $5 million.
According to the New York Daily News, the German shepherd, Floyd, received military-style training and has a thing for sharp objects being handled near the Dolphins’ minority owner Anthony. According to the court documents, the glamorous couple’s personal chef also has been harassed by the pooch.
An animal behavior expert hired by Wilson’s legal team said the dog is dangerous and the famous couple knew it. Early in the flight, Anthony warned Wilson not to look at Floyd in the eyes and call his name when she wanted to pass by.
“The dog was obviously dangerous and we will prove at trial that it was only a matter of time before he hurt someone,” Wilson’s lawyer, William Cafaro, told the News.

These celebrities are nutz. They were on a plane and the dog should have been caged.
These dogs should be caged. I was attacked by an 80 lb. German Shepperd inside a buisness where I was a paying customer and no way I can sue for 5 million dollars
It would have been great if the dog attacked the pilot and crashed the plane! now that would have been funny to hear the black box voice recorder on that one!
The dog should of been caged?? It’s a private jet, not a commercial plane. Keyword is Private, they can have the dog loose or walk around naked if they want.
Thanks Hose B.. do you have any inside info on Paris Hilton or Miley…I’m sure you do, you panty sniffer….
He should get a rottweiller instead. Everyone knows German Shepherds are weak.
I’m glad that they are being sued. People should have better control of their animals.
