Britney Spears Sued for $10 Million Over Perfume

3/31/2011 by

Britney Spears has been caught up in yet another legal drama.

The “Hold It Against Me” hitmaker has just been slapped with a lawsuit by the company that helped her to secure a perfume deal with Elizabeth Arden.

The lawsuit was filed in Los Angeles Superior Court on Wednesday, March 30. In the court documents, the brand-marketing company claims that Britney and Jamie robbed it of its 35% commission from “any and all products” the singer worked on with Elizabeth Arden, including her Radiance fragrance.

In fact, they claim Spears and her father acted secretly to cut them out of the deal.

“Britney secretly made a separate deal with Elizabeth Arden in a sneaky underhanded effort to circumvent and evade its obligations to Brand Sense,” the suit states. “Effectively, Britney improperly and illegally cut Brand Sense out of the Elizabeth Arden deal.”

The company is seeking declaratory relief in excess of $10 million, as well as compensatory and punitive damages.

No word yet on the suit from Spears’ camp.
