British pop star Dua Lipa has filed a lawsuit against Samsung Electronics seeking at least $15 million in damages, accusing the South Korean tech giant of using her image without permission to market its television sets.
The lawsuit alleges that Samsung featured a copyrighted image of the pop star on the front of cardboard boxes containing televisions for retail sale, enabling the company to benefit from what seemed like her endorsement of the product.
The image alleged to have been used on the TV boxes is titled “Dua Lipa — Backstage at Austin City Limits, 2024,” and Lipa is the owner of all rights, title and interest in the image, the lawsuit said. The suit was filed on Friday in the California federal court.
A spokesperson for Samsung Electronics declined to comment, saying it was unable to comment on pending litigation, while Dua Lipa’s lawyers did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the case.
Besides copyright and trademark infringement, Dua Lipa has accused Samsung Electronics of breaching publicity rights.
