An anonymous actress has sued the Internet Movie Database and its parent Amazon.com in a million-dollar federal lawsuit claiming that her offers for roles dropped sharply after IMDb published her age, AP reported.

The actress claims she looks a lot younger than she is, and so she had always been careful about keeping her given name and birth date confidential.

In 2008, she tried to advance her career by signing up for a subscription service with the website called IMDb Pro. She provided credit card information when she bought the service.

IMDb used that information without permission to uncover her date of birth and added it to her profile.

Since then, her career has declined substantially, the lawsuit alleged.

網(wǎng)站曝年齡 女演員起訴

       據(jù)美聯(lián)社報道，一位匿名女演員狀告網(wǎng)上電影資料庫及其母公司亞馬遜網(wǎng)，索要百萬美元賠償，稱自從網(wǎng)上電影資料庫公布了她的年齡以來，她拿到的角色驟減。

       該女演員稱，自己比實際年齡看上去年輕得多，因此一直非常小心，不暴露自己的真實名字和出生日期。

       2008年，為了推進(jìn)事業(yè)發(fā)展，她在網(wǎng)上電影資料庫專業(yè)版上注冊申請了訂閱服務(wù)。在購買該服務(wù)時，她提供了信用卡信息。

       網(wǎng)上電影資料庫未經(jīng)允許便使用了那些信息，曝光了她的出生日期，并將其添加到她的簡介中。

       該訴訟稱，從那以后，她的事業(yè)下滑嚴(yán)重。
