(antiTainment) Actress Catherine Zeta-Jones filed a lawsuit against a Reno strip club for unauthorized use of her image in the club's online promotions.  In the lawsuit, Zeta-Jones charges that The Spice House used her image along with "partially nude women engaged in various sexually explicit poses."

The owner of the club, Ken Wallace, told Reuters that the club's web designer obtained the photograph from a "royalty free" website and that they did not recognize the Academy Award winning actress when they put the promotional photo together. Wallace said that they immediately removed the photograph after being contacted by Zeta-Jone's attorney last October. 

Zeta-Jones is seeking $75,000 in damages.
