Justin Bieber is threatening to sue a New York newspaper that published nude photos of the singer on vacation. A cease-and-desist letter was sent from Bieber's legal team to the New York Daily News demanding the takedown of 20 paparazzi-snapped photos of Bieber's recent vacation in Bora Bora. In the photos, which were censored by the paper, Bieber is strolling around his ocean-side resort completely naked.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Bieber's legal team asked for compliance with the cease-and-desist letter within 12 hours; that time has now passed and the Bora Bora gallery is still live on the Daily News site along with 75 other various Bieber photos. The cease-and-desist letter also claims that, by publishing the nudes, the newspaper is in violation of the singer's publicity and privacy rights, as well as infringing on his trademark.
