Samsung slapped with $15m lawsuit after ignoring Dua Lipa's demands
Summary
Pop star Dua Lipa has filed a $15 million lawsuit against Samsung, alleging the electronics giant used her image on TV box art in the US without permission. The image, titled "Dua Lipa – Backstage at Austin City Limits, 2024," is owned by the singer, who claims Samsung has ignored her repeated demands to cease using it. The lawsuit states that Samsung's response was dismissive and that the infringing products remain on the market. It further alleges that customers were persuaded to buy the TVs solely because of the image on the box. Samsung has not yet commented on the matter.
