I don't want to get into an argument over it but there was a case in florida where a girl was in girls gone wild, they put the video of her in the commercial. She sued saying that she never gave them permission to use her image for marketing purposes and she won. I don't recall how much she won but it was a pretty nice chunk. Last I read ( this was a while back ) GGW was appealing the ruling. Maybe they settled with her then but I remeber seeing her on the news talking about the win.
most try and fail because they are in public, nude so they have no claim to privacy. Even the ones in the videos have no ground to stand on but the ones used for marketing, commercials, DVD covers ect is another story. I saw a show about GGW a little bit ago and now they tell the girls who they are and what they are doing and ask them, on camera, if they can use the footage.
anyway, I don't want to start drama. just wanting to let you know it only takes on lawsuit to ruin your day.
