Siu Black "furious": "Freely using" images and being "counter-accused", what is the truth?

Singer Siu Black's image being used by a beauty salon to advertise her weight loss treatment is causing a stir. In addition, the unfriendly attitude and counter-accusations from the beauty salon have made the singer decide to seek legal help to protect her honor and reputation.

The incident began when Siu Black discovered that her image was being illegally used by a cosmetic facility for weight loss advertising purposes. It is worth noting that this facility had never contacted or cooperated with the singer. This arbitrary use of her image and name has seriously affected Siu Black's reputation, making her extremely upset.

After discovering the incident, Siu Black's manager contacted the beauty salon to request a resolution. However, instead of cooperating, the beauty salon showed a defiant and disrespectful attitude.

According to Siu Black's manager, his initial messages were blocked. Even when Siu Black directly texted, the beauty salon remained completely silent. Later, a person claiming to be the beauty salon's manager contacted and apologized, but blamed the fanpage management department, claiming that they were unaware of the incident. This explanation was considered absurd by Siu Black, because a manager cannot be unaware of the advertising activities of his establishment.

Siu Black's side presented a previous advertising contract between the singer and a beauty salon in Hanoi as a reference for the value of using the image. However, the beauty salon used the excuse of "difficult circumstances" to refuse to compensate at the corresponding amount. Siu Black's manager emphasized that their purpose was not money, but respect and a public apology so that the audience could clearly understand the matter, avoiding the misunderstanding that Siu Black was advertising for this facility.

The climax of the incident occurred when Siu Black's manager went directly to the beauty salon to discuss. Instead of welcoming them with goodwill, the staff of this facility showed an uncooperative attitude, even accusing Siu Black's manager of "threatening" and "demanding physical impact on their employees". Siu Black's manager completely denied these accusations, asserting that he was an educated person and would never behave like that.

Faced with the unfriendly attitude and counter-accusations from the beauty salon, Siu Black and her manager decided to seek legal intervention. Siu Black's manager worked with a lawyer to get advice and guidance on the necessary legal procedures.

The incident of Siu Black’s image being exploited is not a rare case in showbiz. Previously, many other artists such as Quyen Linh and Manh Cuong also expressed their indignation when their images were used without permission for functional food products. These incidents show that the issue of protecting the copyright of images and personal information of artists is becoming increasingly urgent.

The reason the beauty salon used the singer's image was because in 2019, Siu Black was determined to lose weight to improve her health, which had many problems such as high blood pressure, diabetes and arthritis. Thanks to a diet and exercise regimen advised by a private doctor, she lost 20kg. It was this "successful" image that the beauty salon took advantage of, turning her into an unwilling "representative face" for their treatment.

Siu Black’s case is not just a story of copyright infringement. The defiant attitude and counter-accusations from the beauty salon make strong legal action necessary to protect the legitimate rights of those working in the art field. This case promises to continue to attract public attention in the future.
