Maxim Attacks Over Megan Fox's Image

Posted Aug 26th 2009 1:00AM by TMZ Staff

Nobody accuses Megan Fox of being some skanky nightclub posterchild and gets away with it ... especially when the skanky photo on the poster belongs to Maxim Magazine.

Megan Fox's Image

A ridiculously hot photo of Fox in a cleavage-exposing, micro-skirt appeared on a flyer advertising a club in Milwaukee. Problem is, the pic came right off the cover of a July issue of Maxim -- and the club didn't ask for permission before they took the image.

Now, Maxim is launching a legal attack on the club, saying they're "infringing on Maxim trademarks and copyrights and must immediately cease and desist from using the photograph (or any other Maxim material) from any of their flyers or other advertising material."

To the club's credit, they did flip the image 180 degrees -- making it that much harder to figure out where they stole it from.

2. I don't really find her that pretty. She looked a million times better before all the surgery.

4. That isn't the same picture as the cover although it is from the same shoot. Her mouth and expression are different.

5. Uhm...if you actually flip the Maxim image of Megan Fox...it is NOT a flipped image...Doesn't anyone notice her mouth open? different expressions in the eyes?
Unless the photo on the flyer was a picture of Megan Fox INSIDE the magazine itself...and not the front cover...

9. Intellectual property is serious and great and deserves every protection afforded to that magazine. July was a nice cool month and I am sure Milkwaukee was real nice that time of year but this actress disputed as intellectual property certainly is owed a lot of credit for her amazing celebrity. I'm sure her new movie is great, I liked the earlier film when I watched it, and while I watched it on a pirate videodisc, and it will be nice to watch the legitimate premiere of the leading Saturday night variety series.
