Britney Spears: Lawyer Sues Over Billboards

Britney Spears‘ lawyer, Marty Singer, likes to keep himself busy, racking up expensive legal bills for his star client.
Britney Spears is threatening legal action against a Florida radio station that used a bald-headed photo of the pop star on billboards that appear to call her sanity into question.
In a June 14 letter to Clear Channel Communications lawyer Donna Schneider, Spears’s counsel claims that the billboards promoting the MJ Morning Show were “outrageous to the extreme” and demanded their removal.
The three outdoor advertisements pair a paparazzi photo of a bald, snarling Spears with a picture of WFLZ morning show host Todd Schnitt (who uses the air name MJ Kelli). They are headlined, “Total Nut Jobs,” “Shock Therapy,” and “Certifiable.”
According to the star’s lawyer, Spears’s “likeness has a multi-million-dollar value for authorized commercial exploitations” and, as a result, she is entitled to “very substantial damages” from Clear Channel.
The MJ Morning Show airs on several stations across Florida. The Spears billboards, which first appeared last month, advertised the program in Tampa, Jacksonville, and Clearwater.
Call me crazy… but is it a good idea to piss off the radio stations, BEFORE you make your ‘comeback’?
