Tommie Lee, an American reality television actress, accused Paula Abdul of stealing her concept for her eyewear company, Kilt Frames, and promoting it as her own. On Wednesday, January 4, the 38-year-old celebrity expressed her dissatisfaction with Abdul’s new Signature Smart Audio Glasses, which were released the same day.
Lee replied in response to a screenshot of Jon Cohen’s tweet regarding Abdul’s glasses being a “combination of fashion and tech”:
“I’m very disappointed since you all saw me in the field for years, making these frames. You’ve seen firsthand the effort I’ve put into @kiltframes. It’s awful that she [Paula Abdul] stole my whole concept, right down to the style and everything. This usually happens to us; I can’t believe it.”
Tommie Lee shared multiple Instagram Stories messages, one of which dubbed Paula Abdul a “genuine loser” for copying her concept.
