Meet The Royal Navy's First Woman Warship Commander
Kathy Griffin Quizzes 'Bachelorette' Emily Maynard
It's a case of the pot calling the kettle black: After his likeness was used in a couple of American Apparel ads, Woody Allen has struck out at the company with a $10 million lawsuit and has called their campaigns "sleazy" and "infantile." Which is kind of hilarious coming from a guy accused of sexually abusing a minor who happened to be his adopted daughter and subsequently, like, marrying her and stuff.
We thought we'd put the question to you: Who's creepier? American Apparel or Woody Allen?

Woody Allen's problems with the former wife of Frank Sinatra who adopted all the children are ancient history. His current marriage to the lovely Korean lady who had been one of the adoptees has lasted for many years. In contrast, the head of American Apparel, who is not even an American, has been reported in Wikipedia as a blatant sex pervert (He didn't deny what Ms. Ko reported) and an abuser of American immigration and labor laws through the operation of his illegal Mexican worker infested Los Angeles factory. The ads by that company are disgusting. That the company tried to steal Woody Allen's image was in character with its CEO. In Allen's suit to disassociate his image from the pervert's company, American Apparel's lawyer has abused court procedures by dredging up totally irrelevant garbage and should be disbarred for it. As a minimum the lawyer sleaze should be known for the rest of his life as Sewer Slotnick - a real piece of !!!! Nevertheless, it is not surprizing that the stupid, ignorant media that report such things in the way they do could not be more perceptive.

This has nothing to do with Woody Allen's reputation or lack thereof. As a living entertainer he owns the rights to his own likeness; if American Apparel wanted to use it they should have contracted for and paid for that use. As they did not, Mr. Allen has the right under American law to sue for redress. $10 million sounds like a good starting point.

I am not a fan of Woody Allen but he wrote a one-page piece on living, dying and the afterlife of New York City residents. It was one of the funniest pieces that I had read in years. It was in the New Yorker Magazine of 3/30/9. The man is a genius but not my cup of tea.
