Dua Lipa sues Samsung for $15 million over image on TV boxes

Lots of people going into Best Buy looking at display tvs and saying, “the sound and picture are amazing but what I’m really looking for is a tv that comes in a box with a picture of Dua Lipa on it.”

British pop ⁠star Dua Lipa has filed a lawsuit against Samsung Electronics seeking at least $15 million (€13 million) in damages, accusing the South Korean tech giant of using her image without permission to market its television sets

Hey, I got MY Samsung cos of Dua Lipa and if she wants me to stand up in court to say that, I can give her my bank details. 👀

Damn it took me like four articles about it to find one that had a picture of the source of the lawsuit Anyway Samsung done fucked up and should have paid Dua Lipa, those boxes are trouble

I don't know what a Dua Lipa is but good on them suing Samsung

Credit where credit is due! Dua Lipa has filed a $15 million lawsuit against Samsung, alleging that the electronics manufacturer used her likeness to sell TVs without paying her and without permission. variety.com/2026/music/n...

I like Dua Lipa, and I do think she should be compensated for using her image, but unless they’re including a Dua Lipa signature fleshlight sleeve she wouldn’t be amongst even the top 10000 reasons I’d buy any particular TV

Samsung Television, with Dua image control. See whether your favorite singers are Lipa syncing. #Satire news.bloomberglaw.com/litigation/d...

I’m pro #DuaLipa, always 😤 She’s not only one of my favorite author-interview podcasters & literary critics (no joke), but I hear she’s also, like, a pop star of some note, as well. She’s suing #Samsung for some petty thievery involving TV packaging, but she had me at “Dua Lipa suing…” ✊ #CNN

The "I worked my whole life to be famous, and now people use my image, poor me." routine has been played out since elvis. Samsung likely owns the parent company that made the video the image is from. It does not say "the only tv endorsed by dua lipa!" It shows a clear picture of a pretty lady.

A). I don’t think anyone is buying a TV because of who is on the box. B). Fuck Samsung, and don’t you ever use someone’s image or likeness for a for-profit venture, and I hope you have to pay Dua Lipa $15M.
