Anyone can sue you for anything. If you're a regular person being sued by a wealthy one, or a large business, you will be crushed, even if you're in the right. It is legal to say things about public figures that are true. But truth is about facts, not about your interpretation of what they are doing. If a celebrity is an out Pagan and you write about her/his involvement in Wicca, that is okay. If you think that being Wiccan is really worshiping the devil and you write that the celebrity is a Satanist, then it is potentially libel and you could be in trouble if the celebrity or someone who works for her/him decides to pursue it.
