Ashton Kutcher may have denied having sex with alleged fling Brittney Jones, but now he has a problem related to her having sex with someone else. The actor's lawyer fired off a strong letter Thursday to Vivid Entertainment, an adult film company that is marketing a Jones sex tape by connecting it to the Kutcher rumors.
Vivid sent out a press release this week announcing the explicit video, noting that "Ashton's fans will undoubtedly enjoy seeing what the star himself may have experienced." In the letter, obtained by TMZ.com, Kutcher's attorney, Robert D. Offer, claims that line constitutes "trading on Mr. Kutcher's good name and reputation for a commercial purpose, and … attempting to misappropriate and convert the potential economic value in Mr. Kutcher's identity to your own advantage."
Offer rattles off a number of laws he believes Vivid is violating and argues that Kutcher "is entitled to recover damages and profits" since the company's "conduct has already caused, and will continue to cause, substantial damages" to the 32-year-old movie star. The matter can be resolved if Vivid stops associating Kutcher's name with the tape.
Vivid's founder and co-chairman told TMZ, "We will respond accordingly." Jones claimed, via Star magazine in September, that she slept with Kutcher at his home while wife Demi Moore, 48, was away. She later alleged that the couple have an open marriage. Kutcher himself hasn't commented on the tape or the potential lawsuit, but he and Moore continue to put on a united front amidst the allegations.
Mmmm..... =)
