Corazon Kwamboka Involved In An Intellectual Property Tussle

Nothing sells a product quite as well as a celebrity, every corporate and event organizer know that and that is why there is an influx of celebrity endorsements.

Socialites are the way to go for most event organizers in Kenya today and even event organizers outside the country are using socialites to publicize their events. But unlike local companies, they are not paying up and Corazon will have none of it, so took to Instagram crying foul:

This Americans be using my photos and not paying me any royalties… these are the things that make me wake up early to go to school, what makes me wanna become the best entertainment lawyer.. to defend myself and everyone model out there.

The culprit in the story rudely retorted “Hey. This was brought to my attention. There is no such thing as royalties for such. The designer gave a nod to one of our own, promoted you. Call that free advertising for you in your endeavor. Keep in mind we have a million models to choose from, but he decided to keep it local. We aren’t earning a single cent from the use of your picture. So in reality, the benefit is totally yours. If you choose not to see how this works in the entertainment industry, I’ll be happy to have him remove your pic & use another local talent who might appreciate the free advertising. Coz really that’s what it is.”

To which Lily Replied” Stick to being a dj hun… let lawyers who know a thing or two about intellectual property say something.. Good luck in yourhustle but acha kuingilia kile hujui anything about. . Ok bye”
