What Is Dua Lipa's Net Worth? Inside the Grammy Winner's Fortune Amid $15M Samsung Lawsuit

Pop icon Dua Lipa recently filed a $15 million lawsuit against electronics giant Samsung, alleging that the company used her ACL Fest backstage photo to massively sell TVs without paying her or seeking her permission.

According to the filing with the central district of California, the plaintiff's legal team said the music artist has sued Samsung for copyright and trademark infringement, citing the unauthorized commercial exploitation of her 'image and likeness' by the company on cardboard television boxes since early last year.

The Grammy Award-winning singer and performing artist had urged Samsung to stop using her image, but the company allegedly remained 'dismissive and callous' while refusing the request entirely.

'Ms. Lipa's face was prominently used for a mass marketing campaign for a consumer product without her knowledge, without consideration, and as to which she had no say, control, or input whatsoever,' the recently filed lawsuit mentioned. ' Ms. Lipa did not allow and would not have allowed this use.'

More importantly, Lipa claimed in the civil lawsuit that she owns the copyright to the photograph used by Samsung, which was taken in 2024. Samsung was accused of mass manufacturing and distributing these TVs across the US in vast numbers stored in cardboard boxes containing Lipa's image.
