Eric Dane along with wife Rebecca Gayheart sue Gawker Media for copyright infringement of their nude tape video for over $1 million.
It was a month back that a nude tape video of the couple along with US former teen beauty Kari Ann Peniche was posted online by Gawker Media blog.
The nude tape spread across online like wild fire. The couple argues that posting it on a blog violated their legal and privacy rights and they remark that the blog distributed the uncensored 12-minute long tape with malicious intent.
The copyright infringement might cost Gawker Media about $1 million. However, Nick Denton, the Gawker twitted: “To quote the great Marty Singer-Eric Dane’s lawyer-if you don’t want a sex tape on the internet, ‘don’t make one!’ ”
Eric Dane and Rebecca Gayheart, were total to partially nude in the video. The couple’s publicist was not available for an immediate comment.
