Son of Colombian Cartel Queen Griselda Blanco Suing Actress Sophia Vergera Over Netflix Movie

Colombian actress Sophia Vergera is under fire for her depiction of Colombia’s most infamous drug queenpin Griselda Blanco.

According to Fox News — Michael Corleone Blanco and his wife Marie filed a lawsuit in Miami-Dade County on Jan. 17, alleging “unauthorized” use of his “artistic literary work” and the family’s “image, likeness and/or identity.”

Blanco claimed in the lawsuit that Netflix usedinformation from private interviews he did about his mother’s life for its limited series without his authorization and without compensating him.

Eric Newman, creator and executive producer of “Griselda,” told Today.com: “I dealt with similar suits from Pablo Escobar, his family, during the making of ‘Narcos.’ I tend not to think much about them. It just feels a little bit unsurprising and kind of comes with the territory.”

The limited series premieres January 25.

Man Sues Red Bull For False Advertising; Wins $13 Million

Unbelievable. Clearly I’m doing something very wrong in life.

In a 2014 class action lawsuit filed against the Australian based company Red Bull, a petty consumer accused the company of deceptive marketing practices, targeted at the famous slogan “Red Bull Gives You Wings.”

Careathers argued that Red Bull’s advertising goes beyond mere “puffery” and enters the realm of deception and fraud. The settlement, while a significant payout, raises questions about the company’s marketing tactics and the validity of such claims in court.

In response to the settlement, Red Bull issued a statement denying any wrongdoing or admission of truth in the claims. The company emphasized that it settled to avoid the costs and distractions of litigation while maintaining the accuracy of its marketing and labeling.
