This 29 years old Canadian pop singer, actress, choreographer and model wrote on twitter on wednesday, "We're still talking about this?! Its JULY this aired in February... some people have too much time on their hands,"

Molinaro immediately drew comparisons to Kardashian following the commercial's original February 2011 airing. She has also been dating Kardashian's ex-boyfriend, football player Reggie Bush for several months. Kardashian dated Bush on and off between 2007 and 2010.

Molinaro received much support from her Twitter followers and the singer wrote, "What a day...One thing I do know...I'm blown away by all your support. I feel really blessed to have an amazing family & friends like you!"

Kim Kardashian filed the federal lawsuit against Old Navy over their "Super C-U-T-E" commercial on July 20, accusing the company of misappropriating the reality star's likeness and persona to promote Old Navy products. According to the statement, "Old Navy used Kardashian's likeness in the form of a celebrity look-alike, and styled the infringing ads to evoke Kardashian's identity and persona."

Molinaro originally said that the comparison was flattering and complimented her reality star doppelganger.

"To me, it's extremely flattering," Molinaro told E! News about the Kardashian comparisons in February. "She is a beautiful woman in her own right. You know, I'm flattered. That's an amazing compliment."

Molinaro has appeared on shows like "Making the Band 3" and "The Pussycat Dolls Present: The Search for the Next Doll." She also starred in "Honey 2," the straight to DVD sequel to "Honey," which starred Jessica Alba.

Molinaro's first single, "Dance Floor" had 346,448 views on YouTube at press time. According to the Hollywood Reporter, she is currently recording her debut pop album.

Meanwhile, Kardashian announced her engagement to NBA player Kris Humphries, 26, in May. The couple began dating in December 2010 and the basketball player proposed in May with a $1 million, 20.5 carat engagement ring. This will be her second marriage. Her first husband was Damon Thomas (2000-2004).

Kim Kardashian has filed suit against the clothing giant 'Old Navy' with a $20 million.

American socialite, television personality, model, and actress Kimberly Noel "Kim" Kardashian has filed suit against the clothing giant 'Old Navy' with a $20 million. The celeb apparently takes issue with an uncanny look-alike that the retailer is using in an ad campaign. A video of a broadcast ad featuring a smiling, dark-haired woman who bears a resemblance to the real Kardashian has been viewed more than two million times on Old Navy's YouTube channel.

The company even tweeted about the Kim twin: "@CBSNEWS reports that Old Navy's Super CUTE star looks like @kimkardashian. #LOL."

Kim's attorney, Gary Hecker, filed the federal lawsuit against Old Navy in U.S. Disctrict Court bright and early this morning, over the retailer's "unauthorized use of Kardashian's name, likeness, identity and persona."

In addition to compensatory and punitive damages—which a source tells E! News could total up to $20 million—Kim is also seeking an injuction against the company for the alleged violations.

"I've worked hard to support the products I'm personally involved with that I believe in," Kim said. So why after waiting so long is she only now filing suit? Well, it's not a pride thing—despite the fact that the ad's Kim doppelgänger, Melissa Molinaro, is now rumored to have coupled up with none other than Kardashian ex Reggie Bush.

No, as any good businesswoman can tell you, it's not personal—it's just business. Specifically, the business the Kardashians went into with Sears last year. You don't get to be worth $65 million by not looking out for your sponsors, after all.

"It could ruin her relationship with Sears if she's affiliated with Old Navy," a source explained. "To protect her image, she had to file a lawsuit. She doesn't even mention Melissa in the lawsuit. He name is not even in it. The commercial came out in February and Old Navy was tweeting that she looked 'just like Kim K!'"

On the other hand the representative of Old Navy told E! News, "We have not seen any legal filing/received any such lawsuit, so we cannot comment."
