Celebrity sites = lawsuit?

I've been thinking of developing a celebrity site but I was wondering if it would be too much trouble because of lawsuits and such...any opinions?

both have legal risk to my knowledge. nudecelebhound has had infringing content posted repeatedly. mrskin gets stalked by norm z.

save your trouble and do not guess if something is public domain by getting the hits and sending them to http://HotelHeiress.com

xpays sorry i'm pretty new so i don't know the deal? you have exclusive paris content or ??? care to share your story ? did you get a deal with her ex boyfriend or something? i've read quite a few of your posts and got the impression you have something everyone else doesn't?

Yes. We have the exclusive rights for distribution over a computer network of non-physical sales. Redlight Video has the dvd. Our contracts extend into related areas for both of us.

Good question. If you're just using their likeness for commercial reasons, the liability issue is probably quite big. However, if your site is a parody or news/parody/satire site... maybe a differing outcome?
