Ariana Grande is accusing Forever 21 and Riley Rose of using a model with a ‘strikingly similar’ appearance to hers, following the breakdown of talks for a joint marketing campaign.
In a complaint filed on Monday, Grande said Forever 21 and Riley Rose misappropriated her name, image, likeness and music, including by employing a “strikingly similar” looking model, in a website and social media campaign early this year. Grande has more than 65 million Twitter followers and 163 million Instagram followers. A core part of the 26-year-old’s fan base overlaps Forever 21’s and Riley Rose’s target markets.
Its founders, Do Won and Jin Sook Chang, are worth US$1.5 billion according to Forbes magazine. Their daughters, Linda and Esther Chang, opened the first Riley Rose boutique in 2017.
