One can only assume it will soon to be seen on the Small Screen! Much like the recent Bomb "The Love Guru". I am betting more people will watch Mini Me putting the "small blocks" to his Girlfriend than watching Mike Myers Love Guru, most likely the first time a minor star eclipses the Major Star.

So what's Mini Me's complaint about? He's got Bragging Rights now!

LOS ANGELES - Dwarf actor Verne Troyer, a star of "The Love Guru," has sued celebrity Web site TMZ.com and other defendants seeking more than $20 million in damages over a sex tape he said was stolen and posted online.

Troyer, who played the diminutive character Mini-Me in the "Austin Powers" movies, is shown in the tape with former girlfriend Renae Shrider.

Also named in the lawsuit, which was filed in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles Thursday, was producer Kevin Blatt, said to be a promoter of the 2004 sex tape featuring celebrity heiress Paris Hilton, and movie distribution company SugarDVD.
