Rapper Bow Wow has been ordered to hand almost US$80,000 to a French porn star who accused him of using footage of her raunchy dance moves in a music video without permission.
The 26-year-old hip-hop star was sued by Celine 'Katsuni' Tran last year for allegedly featuring clips of her pole-dancing in the promo for a remix of his track 'Drank in My Cup'.
He failed to respond to her complaint, so a federal judge has sided with Tran and told Bow Wow to pay her damages and cover her attorneys' fees, amounting to US$79,346.
According to TMZ.com, Tran's racy strip club performance was shot for a music video for French band The Electronic Conspiracy.
