Ahh, America. Only in this country could an F-list actress even File a lawsuit over her right to lie about her age, let alone lose one.

That's the gist of "Hoodrats 2: Hoodrat Warriors" star Junie Hoang's charges against IMDb (and parent company Amazon), who according to the Daily Mail had a federal jury in Seattle say "hell no" (or words to that effect) to her claim that the database breached her privacy contract by revealing her age.

Originally filed anonymously, the case contended that IMDb failed to remove her fake year of birth (1978) at her request, and then pulled her real birthdate from public records: 1971. Unfortunately, she couldn't prove she lost any roles over the matter, but when you're starring in "Gingerdead Man 3: Saturday Night Cleaver" sounds like you can at least pay your electric bill.

"Hoang did not present any testimony, documents, or other evidence supporting...

A Seattle jury has found against Junie Hoang in her lawsuit against IMDb for revealing her real age online. The decision came after a two-day trial. The 42-year-old actress, whose real name is Houng Hoang, first sued IMDb and parent company Amazon for $1 million back in October 2011. Soon after joining IMDb in 2008, Hoang’s age appeared on the site, information the actress claimed harmed her chances of landing film roles in a youth-centric industry. Hoang has appeared in minor roles in films Gingerdead Man 3: Saturday Night Cleaver and Hoodrats 2: Hoodrat Warriors. She claimed the site performed record searches using her credit card information to obtain her age and did not remove the information when she requested it. As the case made its way through the courts, the claims were pared down, and Amazon was dismissed as a defendant before the breach of contract trial started. Back in late...

Claimant in landmark suit backed by actors' unions told by Us judge to reveal her name in order to take case forward

The actor suing the Internet Movie Database (IMDb) for publishing her real age in a potentially landmark case that unions say has powerful ramifications for the capacity of Hollywood to discriminate against older stars has been revealed as 40-year-old Texan Junie Hoang following a court's ruling.

Hoang had wanted to take the film database to court anonymously in a suit which is being backed by the Us's major acting unions. However, a Us district judge in Seattle said last month that she would need to use her real name to take the case forward.

Hoang received strong support for her position from the Screen Actors Guild (Sag) and American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (Aftra) last year. She argues that the site had no right to publish...

Seattle — An actress who filed an anonymous lawsuit against Amazon.com and its Internet Movie Database for revealing her age identified herself in a federal court filing Friday.

Huong Hoang of Texas, may be better known by her stage name, Junie Hoang. She has appeared in such films as "Gingerdead Man 3: Saturday Night Cleaver" and "Hoodrats 2: Hoodrat Warriors."

The actress filed a million-dollar claim against Amazon last fall, saying the company mined her IMDb account to learn her age, 40, and then posted it on her profile – causing her offers for roles to dry up.

The lawsuit caused a frenzy of online speculation over who the actress might be – as well as a bit of soul-searching about ageism in youth-obsessed Hollywood.

Women over 40 make up 24.3 percent of the U.S. population, but a casting analysis by the Screen Actors Guild showed actresses over 40 get just 12.5 percent of roles for television and film.

A U.S. District judge in Seattle last month ordered the anonymous actress suing IMDb for age discrimination to use her name on the lawsuit — or it couldn’t go forward. So today, Huong Hoang (pictured) who acts using the stage name Junie Hoang, amended and refiled the $1 million suit using her real name. Hoang originally sued IMDb and parent company Amazon as Jane Doe, alleging that the popular online film and TV database posted her age (40) on the site without her permission, after which time offers for younger roles decreased in frequency (her posted resume on the site says she can play ages 26-33). The lawsuit spurred reaction from Hollywood guilds, who took up Huong’s fight as an example of age discrimination for actors in the entertainment industry. IMDb and Amazon eventually denied any wrongdoing, and the Seattle judge said the complaint couldn’t go forward without a legal name on it.
