Lawyers for the Live 8 poverty-relief show have sued the Trimspa diet firm over the behaviour of spokesmodel Anna Nicole Smith and for allegedly not paying a $US320,000 ($NZ450,577) promotional fee to be part of the July 2 telecast.
Live 8 lawyers contend Smith was "intoxicated and scantily clad in revealing attire that was totally inappropriate for a broadcast that would be seen by millions of people in the United States and then re-broadcast throughout the world". The suit says she "damaged Live 8's reputation and goodwill in the entertainment industry by her unbecoming and erratic behaviour".
