Carly Simon v. Starbucks: You Probably Think This Suit Is About You
The Starbucks counter may resemble a CD store, but Carly Simon does not feel like the coffee conglomerate did enough for her recent album.
So she’s taking them to court and bringing in a big legal gun - super lawyer David Boies.
Simon signed with Starbucks label Hear Music, but five days before the release of her 2008 album, “This Kind of Love,” Starbucks “scaled back its involvement in the music business,” according to the New York Times. Simon now alleges that her poor album sales were a result of Starbucks’ “mismanagement.”
