October 25,2018:

Samsung has filed a Rs 11.72 Crore ($1.6 Million) lawsuit against its Russian Brand Ambassador and Socialite Ksenia Sobchak after she was caught using an iPhone X on camera during a TV Show, despite her mediocre efforts to hide phone behind a sheet of paper.

Sobchak was spotted at a number of high-profile social events using her personal iPhone. Sobchak is required by contract to appear in public with her Samsung smartphone.

Samsung suing Sobchak might only serve to further embarrass Company by bringing the story into the limelight. It will certainly be interesting to see how Sobchak responds to the suit and if Samsung will aggressively go after her.

In recent years, there have been no shortage of celebrities paid to endorse the Android brand who were ultimately found to be iPhone users.

Most recently, Wonder Woman star Gal Gadot was caught hyping up the Huawei Mate 10 Pro via a tweet sent out from her iPhone.
