MEL Gibson's girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva is suing a web domain provider for setting up a site that claims she is carrying twins.
A furious Oksana Grigorieva has launched a lawsuit accusing Californian URL provider DreamHost com of "cyber squatting".
She is demanding the company remove the site and hand her the rights to the domain name, Oksanagrigorieva. com.
The Russian singer wants at least $A120,000 in damages, according to court documents obtained by News Limited.
"The defendants have misappropriated and used the domain name in a blatant effort to impersonate and exploit the name, photograph, likeness and persona of internationally renowned model, pianist, musical composer and performer Oksana Grigorieva," the documents say.
"As part of the scheme to exploit Grigorieva's famous name and identity, the defendant acquired and cyber squatted the domain name, comprised entirely of Grigorieva's valuable name and mark."
The site purports to carry official press statements about her relationship with soon-to-be-divorced Gibson and their pregnancy.
"I am indeed carrying a bun in the oven - in fact there may be two buns in there somewhere," the site says, under her name and picture.
"I am, for obvious reasons, the happiest woman in the world."
The site claims she announced the pregnancy as far back as April.
However, the first confirmation came last month when Gibson spoke out on US TV.
Grigorieva launched the suit in the Los Angeles Superior Court last week.
"The harm to the plaintiff is direct and palpable," the documents say.
"Through the website, the defendants have sought to misappropriate and use the plaintiff's persona and identity and engage in false and fraudulent imposter communications and press announcements with regard to Grigorieva."
A raft of identities have been done battle with domain name providers in the past, including Hillary Clinton and Jennifer Lopez.
Dream Host did not respond to requests for comment and they have yet to formally respond to the claims in court.
