Model Sues Film Maker For Her Sexy Photo Being Used In Film As Masturbatory Prop
I will be angry as well……
Former model Irina Krupnik filed a $10 million defamation lawsuit against NBC Universal Thursday after a decade-old modeling photo of her was used in the movie “Couples Retreat.” The swimsuit photo was used by actor Jon Favreau in a solitary sex scene.
It was used as a “prop for an overweight, unhappily married male character to masturbate while his wife is in the washroom,” and the “ongoing, unauthorized and defamatory use of her likeness in a derogatory and humiliating context” has caused Krupnik personal and professional distress, according to the lawsuit, which was filed in a New York court.
Krupnik is now a successful makeup artist at the John Barrett Salon in New York City.
Although Krupnik signed a contract granting full rights of the photo to a stock image company, “she did not contemplate, intend, or consent to the use of her photograph or likeness in a quasi-pornographic context,” according to the lawsuit.
