Anna Maria Alberghetti, Bonnie Pointer and comedian Judy Tenuta have filed a federal class action against photo broker Corbis Corp., claiming it sold their photos to newspapers and advertisers without their consent.

Alberghetti was a child star in the 1950s, then appeared in movies with Dean Martin and Bing Crosby. Bonnie Pointer was a member of the disco-era Pointer Sisters, then went on to a successful solo career. Judy Tenuta is an accordion-playing comedienne.

The three women seek $5 million in damages, including Corbis' profits from the sale of the photos and a permanent injunction.

The entertainers are represented by the law firm of Robbins Umeda of San Diego.
