The latest celebrity blog isn’t just about the stars, it is actually written by a star.

Rob Lowe has written a blog saying he’s the victim of an extortion plot by a former nanny. Lowe claims the nanny is asking him and his wife to give her $1.5 million dollars, or as he puts is, “she will accuse us both of a vicious laundry list of false terribles.”

The blog was posted Monday afternoon on HuffingtonPost.com, and by Tuesday morning, more than 250 people had commented on it.

Some comments are funny:

“I too was badly abused by Rob Lowe. He left the West Wing well before the show was canceled and the series was much the poorer for him being gone.”

Others are sympathetic to Lowe:

“Best of luck to you and your family Rob, this is a horrible situation to be in.”

Some Huffington Post readers are skeptical of Lowe’s claims:

“Excuse me if I don’t seem concerned, Rob. I would love to have a staff to take care of my kids, cooking, cleaning, etc, and to even fly around with me to take care of unwanted tasks. It would also be nice to have 1.5 million dollars extra in the bank to take care of such pesky people, or at least to have the money to hire high-powered lawyers that will crush them even if they are telling the truth.”
