Brenda Song's huge fan said...

Hey what are you planning to do? Don't you know any thing about this picture? Are you going to tell everyone that Brenda Song's a bad girl?! Hah! You're sooooooo wroooonnnnggg!!!

Read this, it's from wikipedia.org:

"On April 18, 2008, a picture of Song was featured in an escort ad in the back of that week's LA Weekly. The advertisement was promoting sexual activities. Disney lawyers were not pleased with the use of Song's copyrighted image for advertising adult activities. A rep from Disney told TMZ.com that "This is an unauthorized use of Brenda Song's image and her personal attorney has issued a cease and desist to the advertiser."[50] Song is now filing a lawsuit against the Vibe Media Inc.[51] She told TMZ: "In filing suit, I hope to prevent this company from doing this again to anyone else". She is seeking $100,000 in damages.[52] Song also told E! News: "As a role model to millions of young people, I feel I have to take a stand against this company in regard to its exploitation of my image".

Song's attorney Lawrence Steinberg of Buchalter Nemer in Los Angeles stated to Back Stage:

"I'm not sure if they were trying to just find a picture of a pretty girl or an Asian-looking girl or whether they expected that Brenda would be recognized in a sexually promoted escort ad, Brenda's demographic is a lot different from what I would suppose the clients of this business are. If you're the sort of person who would use the services of a business like escort services, it is quite possible that Brenda Song would not have come up in your minds when looking first at the ad." [53]

Steinberg also stated the photo used in the ad was taken when Song was 16 years old. Steinberg also added he discovered Vibe Media. Co was not responsisible for the use of Song's image. Steinberg has since identified the individual who is responsible and will file an amended suit soon. Vibe Media did not returns calls for comment by press time. Steinberg said it is particularly important to aggressively protect the use of Song's image because of her association with Disney. "Brenda's public image is very important to her. Brenda has been careful to not accept roles that would taint her in the way that some other young actors have been," he said."

It's useful for you, hah?
