Celebrity lawyer Vicki Roberts has issued a press release announcing that she is the woman in the green dress who accompanied actor Gary Busey to the Academy Awards last month.

“Oscar Scoop! The Woman in the Green Dress Identified,” the press release is headlined. Legal Blog Watch, in its report on the release, speculates that Roberts must adhere to the belief that any publicity is good publicity.

Busey’s appearance on the red carpet before the Oscars proved an embarrassing moment, Legal Blog Watch recounts. Busey interrupted host Ryan Seacrest and embraced an annoyed-looking Jennifer Garner. Busey later apologized in a press release issued by Roberts’ publicist.

“Gary greeted everyone with joy and enthusiasm and goodness in his heart,” Roberts says in her press release. “The characterization that he allegedly accosted anyone on the red carpet is belied by the tape.”
