Louis Vuitton Sues Britney Spears

The French LV company won a court injunction in Paris to keep the pop star’s 2005 “Do Something” video from airing on European TV stations. In it she drives a pink Hummer with a counterfeit Vuitton “cherry blossom”- monogrammed dashboard according to Women’s Wear Daily .
The civil court ruling also ordered the video’s producer to pay $117,600 for damages to Vuitton’s image, and $1,470 per day until the video is removed from the Internet.
Named in the suit are Spears’ record label, Jive, its parent company Zomba Label Group and Sony BMG and MTV Online, where the video has appeared. YouTube, of course, is still showing this fine cinematic effort (above)...
