Is Cleavage Copyrightable?

(ex-Governor Spitzer’s friend, Kristen)

A very interesting story comes our way via Donn Zaretsky’s Artlaw Blog concerning Governor Spitzer’s, excuse us, ex-Governor Spitzer’s friend, Kristen (and her cleavage). It seems Kristen’s lawyer is a bit upset that media sources are using photos obtained from her Myspace page without permission. Some think this is fair use, and we agree. As a side note, in-house counsel at Clancco has decided that if Kristen sues us for copyright infringement we will seek vigorous steamroller representation—Mr. Spitzer himself. Enjoy!
