Accusation of Malia Obama stealing Nike commercial from independent film
Former first daughter Malia Obama is accused of stealing a portion of a Nike commercial she directed from an independent film titled Grace, as claimed by Natalie Jasmine Harris. Harris states that the scene in Obama's commercial mirrors a scene in her movie in terms of cinematic tools used. She feels devastated by the blatant copying of her work and criticizes Nike for choosing Obama based on name recognition rather than skills.
