"Britney Spears is planning to take legal action against a Florida radio
station that posted billboards using pictures of the popstar with a shaved head
next to the station's morning host and the captions 'Total Nut Jobs,' 'Shock
Therapy' and 'Certifiable.' Spears's lawyer sent a letter on June 14 to station
owner Clear Channel Communications calling the billboards 'outrageous to the
extreme' and demanding their removal, stating that the popstar's 'likeness has a
multi-million-dollar value for authorized commercial exploitations' and that as
a result she is entitled to 'very substantial damages' from Clear Channel.
"
I don't know where the line is, but this crosses the line. I think it has something to do with the fact that they are using her image to promote their own show. I think there is a difference between just mocking Britney and using her to promote yourself.
