Erin Andrews set to take on hotel in $75M peeping Tom lawsuit

Sexy sportscaster Erin Andrews’ $75 million lawsuit against a Tennessee hotel she says made it easy for a stalker to take nude videos of her goes to trial in Nashville Tuesday.

In 2008, the brazen peeping Tom, former Illinois insurance salesman Michael David Barrett, booked rooms next to Andrews, using his real name, and then filmed her through a room-door peephole that he’d doctored, allowing him to see in.

He later tried to sell the footage of Andrews changing in her room. Barrett pleaded guilty in 2010 and was sentenced to 30 months in jail.

Andrews accuses the Nashville Marriott at Vanderbilt University, its owners and managers of telling Barrett her room number and allowing him to book his own room next door. Her suit also cites infliction of emotional distress and invasion of privacy.

At Barrett’s sentencing, an emotional Andrews said she felt like she had not gotten a full measure of justice against the sicko.

“He pled guilty because the FBI had a box full of evidence, not because he is remorseful,” she said.

“Every time I check into a hotel room, I fear he is in the closet, and every time I go home, I fear he is waiting for me. I fear for my life,” said Andrews, who at the time worked for ESPN.

In court, she called Barrett a “sexual predator” and a “sexual deviant.”

Andrews, 37, who now works for Fox Sports and also co-hosts ABC’s “Dancing with the Stars,” sued Barrett, 54, the Nashville Marriott and the hotel chain in 2011.

A judge recently tossed Marriott International from the case.

A spokeswoman for the hotel said, “Since the incident in question, the Nashville Marriott at Vanderbilt has changed management. The new management company requires and enforces a strict adherence to policies regarding guest privacy, and, as such, has implemented additional safety and privacy measures.”

At the time of the incident, Andrews was in Nashville to cover a Vanderbilt football game for ESPN.

Barrett shopped the footage to TMZ. The celebrity news site didn’t bite, but the racy clips made their way online anyway, launching an FBI investigation. The feds were able to catch Barrett using an e-mail provided to TMZ.

The trial is expected to last two weeks.

Barrett, who now lives in Oregon, did not return messages for comment.
