Did the Celebrity Slander His Former Girlfriend?

An interesting look at a slander case filed against KISS’ Gene Simmons:
Plaintiff Georgeann Walsh Ward claims that during a VH1 “rockumentary,” Simmons (and the documentarians) made her sound like a “sex-addicted nymphomaniac.” (The suit also names Simmons’s company, as well as Viacom.) …
Should the judge have let this suit - by a girlfriend who says she was misportrayed as a groupie — go forward?
I will argue that the answer is no; it ought to have been dismissed.
