"Could Uma Thurman be headed back to court? The actress on Friday
filed a $15 million lawsuit in federal court in Manhattan against
Lancôme for allegedly continuing to use her image in advertising
even though her contract had expired. According to Thurman's lawyer,
Bert Fields, her contract with Lancôme ended in 2004, but the brand
has continued to use her image to sell products all around the world
during the past four years. But Lancôme, a subsidiary of L'Oréal, is
fighting back — the company filed a suit of its own last week in the
State Supreme Court in Manhattan, saying it did not violate the
contract and does not owe Thurman money. The beauty company is said
to have paid Thurman $5.8 million for the first two years of the
contract, with the option to renew for another 24 months at a price
of $3.1 million for each additional year. A spokeswoman for L'Oréal
said: "The use of Ms. Thurman's image after her contract expired,
however minor, was neither deliberate nor intentional. As this
matter is currently in litigation, it is Lancôme's policy not to
comment on legal matters while they are in progress."

The suit against Lancôme came three days following the end of
another court ordeal for Thurman — a former psychiatric patient,
Jack Jordon, 35, was convicted of fourth-degree stalking and second-
degree harassment after following the actress and sending her
notes. — Amy Wicks"
