Former Dallas star Victoria Principal is being sued by her former maid, who claims Principal pulled a gun and held her at gunpoint after returning from walking the dog. Apparently, Victoria Principal was pissed because the maid was gone for so long.

Victoria Principal starred as Pamela Ewing on Dallas and has been seen in a handful of other roles.

Maribel Banegas is the former maid who worked at Victoria Principal’s Malibu home. Banegas was fired after Principal failed to believe the reason behind the maid’s delay – the dog wouldn’t go to the bathroom.

After Maribel Banegas asked for her final check, Principal went upstairs and returned with a gun, “which she then pointed and aimed” at the maid, and threatened to kill her.

Banegas locked herself in another room and called 911.

While John Travolta had been attached to the role of J.R. Ewing for the big screen version of “Dallas,” it looks like he was cut loose from the “Dallas” movie. According to a friend of John Travolta’s, the “Dallas” producers “have gone in a different direction than was originally intended.”

Looks like they want a more “comedic, behind-the-scenes” look at the small screen drama – and Ben Stiller has reportedly been offered the role of J.R. Ewing.
