Jennifer Lopez is being sued for posting photos of herself at a Hollywood party, with the photographer and a paparazzi agency saying she failed to get permission to use them.
The singer and actress shared pictures on social media of herself arriving at the Amazon MGM Studios and Vanity Fair Party in Los Angeles the night before this year's Golden Globes in January.
Photographer Edwin Blanco and Backgrid, the agency he was working for, have each filed lawsuits saying they own the copyright to two photos.
Backgrid and Blanco are seeking up to $150,000 (£112,000) damages each per photo.
The pictures showed the star in a white dress and a white faux fur coat outside the party at Chateau Marmont.
She posted them on Instagram and X with the caption "GG Weekend Glamour", and they were then shared by numerous fan and fashion pages.
The lawsuits says Lopez's unauthorised use of the Images is commercial in nature, intended for the purpose of self-promotion.
The legal documents say Backgrid and Blanco contacted Lopez's representatives after she posted them and agreed a deal and payment, but that she has not yet signed the agreement.
Celebrities including Dua Lipa, Gigi Hadid and Khloe Kardashian, have also been on the receiving end of similar legal complaints.
