Coffee, Mug

All image, no substance…

This morning I read that some no name model/actor has pocketed $15.6 million from Taster’s Choice for their unauthorized use of his mug on their packaging over the years.

The model, Russell Christoff, noted the unauthorized use of his mug in this way.

"While shopping for Bloody Mary mix at a drug store in 2002,..."

Times must have been tough for Russell if he was shopping for Bloody Mary mix at a drug store.

But it was the following comment, uttered by Russell and noted in the article, that actually caught my eye this morning.

"Our image is our product, whether it’s our face or our talent, and they took it improperly,” he said."

Just another pretty face winning the lawsuit lottery.  All image, no substance, just like every other model/actor.
