E! News also reports that the U.S. Copyright Office shows that, in 2019, Bolden registered a copyright for a 2018 image he took of Kardashian.

Bolden is seeking profits Kardashian made from the post, plus punitive damages. He requested a jury trial.

Kardashian isn’t the only star to be sued for use of unauthorized photos, Gigi Hadid, Ariana Grande, Katy Perry and Justin Bieber have also been nailed. Both Grande and Bieber have already settled their suits.
