Celebrity snitch extraordinaire Perez Hilton is once again being spanked for pic theft-this time a beauty mag claims the six-figure blog lifted his infamous eyeshadow clad optical logo from an ad for Nailpro.

Creative Age Publications, demanding the logo be removed. In the letter, Creative Age alleges that the picture Perez uses as his logo is theirs, and that it appeared in a feature in the September 2004 issue of Nailpro — a magazine geared toward salon owners, managers and nail technicians.

Deborah Carver, publisher of Nailpro, says: “I’m a Perez fan, but he can’t use our award-winning photos. This isn’t the first time he’s done this. These are proprietary works that take an entire team of people to put together.”

The letter, dated May 21st, reads, “Please be advised that our client is entitled to seek statuatory damages for willful copyright infringement up to $150,000 per work infringed.”
