The lawsuit filed in Manhattan by EDF Brands charges that Thalia didn’t live up to her obligations under the licensing deal she signed in 2016.

EDF lawyer Andrew Goldenberg said Thalia “wasn’t really interested in fulfilling the promises she made to my client.”
But Thalia says in a counterclaim that that EDF’s products weren’t up to her standards.
She says the quality of suede in a pair of sneakers was “very cheap,” for example.
The 45-year-old Thalia has sold more than 40 million records worldwide.
