Louis Vuitton Sues Britney and Wins
Britney Spears got into some serious trouble for using the Vuitton name without permission.
Louis Vuitton filed a suit against the weave wearing singer for showing a pink Vuitton dashboard in her “Do Something” music video. Apparently the Hummer she’s driving in the clip features a “Cherry Blossoms” design that resembles the Vuitton trademark look.
A French court found in favor of the designer, and ordered Sony BMG and MTV Online to cease any broadcasting or showing of the music video. Both parties were also fined $80,000.
