Zeta Jones files suit against cosmetics firm

Catherine Zeta Jones filed a lawsuit yesterday in a United States federal court seeking US$15 million ($25 million) from the cosmetics firm Caudalie for running an ad campaign that says the Oscar-winning actress "was spotted buying the complete Caudalie range of skincare" and had used the company's anti-ageing spa in Las Vegas.

Her lawsuit says she has never bought such products, nor did she receive services from the spa.

Zeta Jones has an exclusive deal to promote Elizabeth Arden cosmetics.
