‘Hustlers’ Inspiration Threatens Lawsuit Against Jennifer Lopez’s Company
Samantha Barbash, the inspiration behind the movie “Hustlers” wants to be given some money or there’s going to be consequences.
Barbash’s legal team has issued a letter to the company behind the film stating that their client needs to be paid for using her likeness, personality, biography, and identity to promote the film.
Her attorney also says that Barbash wanted nothing to do with the film and feels that the studio should pay up for “the flagrant violation of her rights.”
There’s no word on how much dough Barbash is seeking if the studio doesn’t pay up.
