She just took care of her stalker, and now she's going after malevolent cosmetic corporations that are trying to use her ass! Beatrix Kiddo is dealing with a lot of drama. Uma Thurman has just filed a 15 million dollar countersuit against Lancome for using her image to sell their products after her contract expired.

It's a countersuit because Lancome thought they were being cagey and filed a suit to keep her from getting any of their money. They're claiming that they never "knowingly or intentionally" meant to use her image to push their beauty concoctions.

Uma, 38, signed on to be their spokeschick in 2000, and her contract expired in 2005. She's claiming that they kept using her visage on billboards and their websites in Canada and Asia. And didn't pay her for it. You need to dole out some cash for that kind of beauty!

Thurman's lawyer, Bertram Fields, says that "The worldwide and unauthorized use of Thurman's name and likeness for years after the expiration dates significantly diluted the value of Thurman's name and likeness for advertising or promotional purposes." I seriously doubt she's going to have to advertise Carvel ice cream cakes anytime soon, though.
