The New York Post reports former construction worker turned dancer Maureen Marder, whom Jennifer Beals’ ‘Flashdance’ character is based – plans to sue Jennifer Lopez for theft of intellectual property featured in her ‘I’m Glad’ video. “I was stunned and phoned Paramount who told me they had no authorization,” Marder tells The Post. “They have the right to sell it but since J.Lo didn’t go through the proper channels, they have to contend with me because I have a parallel claim.”

J.Lo is such a b*tch!. She has gotten in so many lawsuits I think she’s gonna go bankrupt (oh well Bennifer may pay off some bills and that’s only if they are still together). I hope Maureen Marder sues the f*ck out of J.Lo. She deserves it and needs to learn stop stealing peoples sh*t, including Mariah!
she’s getting sued as much as Puffy!
I don’t know how they thought they were going to get away with that in the first place. That video is a carbon copy of the movie! Where were her lawyers?? Its not like she didn’t have enough money to purchase the right to use the scene. Maureen Marder could have made a cameo appearance. That’s usually how its done.
When a certain work of entertainment or art becomes old enough or popular enough, it generally becomes “public domain” and people have the right to use it at will. HOWEVER, how J.Lo’s lawyers could think that the concept of “Flashdance” was public domain is ridiculous.
