Louis Vuitton won an undisclosed amount from Sony music on Thursday for allowing their artists to use the LV monogram in music videos and on album covers. The legal battle began after Vuitton sued Sony in 2003 for allowing Da Brat to bounce around a multicolored LV print beachball in her In Love With You video. Also named in the suit: Ruben Studdard for printing his album jacket for "The Return" CD on Louis Vuitton monogram paper and Britney Spears for sporting a Louis Vuitton dash board in a pink Hummer in her "Do Somethin" video.
