Charli D\u2019Amelio reportedly suing photographer after \u2018stealing\u2019 claims over book Instagram: Charli D’Amelio \/ YouTube: Jake DoolittleCharli D\u2019Amelio\u2019s legal team is reportedly threatening action against the photographer who claimed she used his pictures in her book without permission \u2014 and he insists his issue is with them, not her. Photographer Jake Doolittle made headlines on August 31 after slamming Charli D\u2019Amelio for allegedly using his pictures in her \u2018Essentially Charli\u2019 book without his permission. He claimed that she made \u201cmillions\u201d off his work, and although he was credited, he believes he\u2019s entitled to compensation according to a \u201cprevious agreement.\u201d After the story blew up on the internet, it caught the eye of her legal team, who reportedly threatened to take action against him. As a result, he felt the need to address the situation and released a response video on YouTube. \u201cI got a call from someone at the D\u2019Amelio team asking me to delete all the posts, scaring me into not making a video saying more about it, and threatening to get lawyers involved if I keep spreading what they deem as false information,\u201d he said. \u201cI deleted everything that has to do with Charli D\u2019Amelio or the team. I should have known it would make me look guilty. But when you\u2019re on the phone with someone from the D\u2019Amelio team asking you to delete everything, you do it.\u201d Jake believes Dexerto\u2019s coverage of the situation sent the legal team into a frenzy because it did not \u201cpaint them in good light.\u201d He claimed he received three calls and eleven text messages from them 30 minutes after it went live. He confirmed that his issue isn\u2019t with Charli. Instead, it\u2019s with the \u201cmedia conglomerate\u201d behind her. \u201cIt felt amazing to have my work wanted, but it\u2019s frustrating to be so small that I have no power to get paid for it,\u201d he said. Jake concluded his statement by saying that they needed to have the courtesy to tell him they were planning to use his photos in the book and offer him money for his work. \u201cIt makes me think I can\u2019t be the only person that this has happened to,\u201d he said. \u201cI feel powerless when it\u2019s me fighting against a big media conglomerate with managers, lawyers, public relations people, and so much more.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
