The intimate details of Woody Allen's love life will not be made public, after all. The filmmaker filed a $10 million suit against American Apparel a few months ago, claiming the apparel company had tarnished his rep by featuring him on billboards in New York and LA without his permission; American Apparel vowed to fight the suit and threatened to delve into Allen's personal life at trial in an effort to prove his image had already been marred by scandal. Now the whole mess is about to disappear: This morning American Apparel agreed to pay Allen $5 million to settle the dispute, which Allen claims is the "the largest reported amount ever paid under the New York right to privacy law."
