In this week’s hot entertainment news, actress Sofia Vergara and Netflix are under fire for the unauthorised use of the Blanco family’s image and likeness without fair compensation, allegedly. Reportedly, the legal dispute comes from Michael’s interest to create a potential series or book about his mother, Griselda Blanco—murdered in 2012 after serving a nineteen-year bid until 2004.
