Teletubby 159,962 Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 (edited) Dua Lipa sued Samsung for using her image on TV cardboard boxes without permission. She seeks actual damages of at least $15 million. She alleges straightforward claims for violating her publicity rights and false endorsement, in addition to copyright and trademark claims. Ms. Lipa became aware of Samsung’s infringement and violation of her right of publicity in or about June 2025, and immediately demanded that Samsung cease and desist from the infringement. Samsung has repeatedly refused to do so, and instead has continued to willfully, intentionally, and purposefully infringe on Ms. Lipa’s rights. She cites social posts showing customer reactions to the box. One fan wrote "I wasn't even planning on buying a TV but I saw the box so I decided to get it." Other comments included "I'd get that TV just because Dua is on it." Yet another aptly noted, “if you need anything selling just put a picture of Dua Lipa on it.”x https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.cacd.1019396/gov.uscourts.cacd.1019396.1.0.pdf Edited May 10 by Teletubby No One Cares About You 7 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My pilot light died on the main burner I use so I light it with one of those long lighters. Just be sure to light the lighter before you turn the gas on 'cause gas spreads quick and lighting it too slow is a great way to lose your eyebrows Whimsical bitch 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAMROD 115,732 Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 Copyright is a very fickle business. This is exactly why shooting sets, be it professional or YouTubers, are consisting of either sponsored or copyright free items on display. They can't even hum a song, unless their own, or it will get copyrighted. (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ✧*:･ﾟ scarlet needle: antares (*´艸｀*) ♡♡♡ Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
