Dita Von Teese suing L.A Dominatrix

Burlesque beauty Dita Von Teese is suing a Los Angeles-based dominatrix over claims she stole half the rights to her movie Slick City. Dita Von Teese (real name Heather Sweet) made the movie in 2001 with producer Bob Zahurak.

But the dancer claims Cynthia Butler attempted to take her share of the film's profits when she took over Zahurak's company following his death.

Von Teese's attorney tells New York gossip column, "Dita had agreed to share profits and split the rights to her films with Zahurak. "Cynthia Butler is trying to take Dita's profits. Dita just wants the film back and all the past royalties."

Out of interest I looked up the move Slick City on IMBD, here is the description:
In the year 2011, virtual reality is within reach. When two of Lela's friends create the first virtual slave program, they promptly go missing. She sets out to discover the truth. Soon, Lela herself becomes embroiled in a plot far more devious which it threatens her life and the lives of her friends.
