Reno's 'friendliest topless cabaret' is facing the wrath of Hollywood superstar Catherine Zeta Jones as she sued the strip club for unauthorised publication of her image on their web site.
The 'Spice House' club, however, is taking the lawsuit in good humour, IMDb quoted marketing director Kent Wallace calling the litigation 'frivolous'. The lawsuit seemed like yet another mismatched battle between a powerful celebrity and a little happy-hour-hosting adult club that was never looking for a fight.
Wallace claims the Nevada club was not aware the picture was of the Hollywood beauty, and that it downloaded pictures from a German web site offering 'royalty-free'
Wallace goes on to say the club wasn't even served with a lawsuit and just found out the way the world did on the internet. He remains upbeat and says, "She should have been flattered, as far as I'm concerned."
As the infamously complicated trial yawningly unfolds, the club basks in the freshly raked controversy. On Sunday night, the club is hosting a Halloween party, and encouraging patrons of both sexes to come dressed as their 'favourite brunette actress'.
Whoever that may be.
