What, does she have her assistants surf the web looking for reasons to sue?:
Catherine Zeta-Jones is continuing to prove that she's not just another pretty face -- she's also of the most litigious people in Hollywood. The actress has just filed against a small strip club in Reno, Nev., called the Spice House, which calls itself "Reno's Friendliest Topless Cabaret," alleging that the club used her image without permission on its Web site. According to Zeta-Jones' suit, photos of her face were shown alongside images of "partially nude women engaged in various sexually explicit poses." A spokesman for the club claims that its webmaster used the photos by mistake, thinking they were free images and not realizing that they were Zeta-Jones, and that once the actress's lawyers informed the club of their error, the site designer promptly removed the images, thinking the matter was resolved. The club says it is "shocked" by Zeta-Jones' move to recover damages for the unauthorized use of her image on the site, which it says gets very little traffic. (AFP)

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”
