Charlize Theron Sued For $20 Million

Oct 6 2008 - 12:01pm

If you're a celebrity endorser of a product, ya better follow through! Charlize Theron is being sued for failing to to abide by the rules of her contract with a Swiss watch company.

Raymond Weil has filed a suit of $20 million, claiming Charlize went against the contract by wearing a Dior watch. The contract states that she must wear Weil watches only from 2005 TO 2006, which she violated.

Back in February, Charlize fought the suit, but a judge just ruled that it must go to trail. Imagine being sued for that much for such a petty little thing? She'll be tried in a New York court in October.

Charlize isn't the first celeb this has happened to. Jessica Simpson was sued by True Religion Jeans for a similar offense, as well as Melanie Griffith. Sounds like these designer lines are hurting for cash!
