GABRIELLE UNION SUES 2 BOGUS ADVERTISERS FOR INVASION OF PRIVACY.

Actress Gabrielle Union is suing two men for invasion of privacy, after they posted a fake job advertisement looking for an assistant for the star. The two defendants, Calvin High and Steve Raymond, both from Georgia, are alleged to have advertised the job of executive assistant on listings website Craigslist.com, claiming they were acting on Union's behalf. But the actress says she's never heard of either defendant and was unaware of their actions. Union claims to have suffered "severe emotional distress" as a result of the bogus posting. She also says that High and Raymond subjected her to "embarrassment and humiliation" by putting out the false ad.

Her lawsuit, filed in a Georgia district court on Friday, seeks unspecified damages and also names as defendants "John Does 1-10,' because Union's lawyers, Locke Lord Bissell & Liddell, LLC, claim the acts were committed "in conjunction with and/or with the help of several other individuals who are unknown... at this time." They go on to state: "At least one individual responded to the advertisement for the position... and subsequently contacted Ms. Union directly inquiring about the advertisement."
