Renee Graziano 77 Million Lawsuit

Renee Graziano 77 Million Lawsuit - Doctor says reality star is ruining his reputation on the show. Regarding recent surgery, Graziano says 'I went in beautiful and came out ugly.'

Plastic surgeon's lawsuit says "Mob Wives" star Renee Graziano maligned him in January radio interview in which she said Dr. Andrew Klapper "was found guilty of killing a woman" and that his federal prosecutor sister "covered it up."

A Manhattan plastic surgeon says “Mob Wives” reality star Renee Graziano is trying to whack his career.

Dr. Andrew Klapper, 43, has filed a $77 million defamation lawsuit in Brooklyn Supreme Court, charging that Graziano falsely claimed he botched her full-body makeover.

“She has been on a media campaign to destroy this man’s professional reputation and she has succeeded,” mob lawyer Barry Levin, who is representing Klapper, said Monday. “His practice has diminished considerably in the last year.”

The Mafia diva, the daughter of Bonanno family consigliere Anthony Graziano — who was sentenced Monday to 19 months in jail for extortion — went to Klapper in 2011 for a full-body lift, including a tummy tuck and butt lift. The procedure was done as the reality show’s cameras rolled.

Since then, Graziano — far from taking a vow of omerta — has bad-mouthed Klapper on her show and in media interviews.
