Who owns @JamesDean? At the moment, its a fan account, tweeting out inspirational quotes and pictures, but according to a new piece in The Hollywood Reporter, the estate of the late actor is leading a campaign to shut down the account, taking Twitter all the way to federal court. The estate wants to convert @JamesDean to an official account, similar to the estate-run Facebook page, but so far, Twitter isnt budging. The firm behind the complaint is CMG, a celebrity marketing firm built on protecting likeness rights for classic celebrities like Elvis and Marilyn Monroe.
