Uh oh! Britney Spears’ record label, Zomba, is NOT pleased with Perez Hilton leaking her tracks via his blog. In fact, they are suing his ass.
Attorneys for Zomba Recording LLC, which owns the copyrights to Britney Spears’ recordings, filed suit in federal court in Los Angeles today charging the online gossip website PerezHilton.com and its proprietor Mario Lavandeira with illegally obtaining and posting recordings by Spears.
The suit accuses Lavandeira of infringing Zomba’s copyrights by posting at least 10 completed tracks and unfinished demos from Ms. Spears’ upcoming album, “Blackout,” over the past three months. “Blackout” was originally scheduled to be released on Nov. 13 but because of internet leaks, Ms. Spears’ label Jive Records announced yesterday it was moving up the release date to Oct. 30.
Spears herself is not a party to the lawsuit.
“The unauthorized dissemination of recordings is a serious violation of copyright law,” said a Zomba spokesperson. “In addition, posting demos and unfinished songs as if they were final versions is grossly unfair to the artist and misleading to the public.”
Well how do you hide from that????? It’s on the blog! They have proof! I don’t see why they are all that mad at him anyway. The album wasn’t going to sell that much anyway. So all you blogs who had all her sh*t uploaded, HIDE YOUR STASH! The jig is up!
