Old Navy's "Ambassador of Fun" Olivia Munn and Ace of Cakes Duff Goldman took Sunday Funday to a whole new level in Boring, Oregon.

No really, there's a city in Oregon called Boring.

The Funnovations Inc. festivities included free swag giveaways, live music from Bootsy Collins and a massive funfetti cake shaped like the Old Navy "Funnovations Inc." factory designed by Duff.

Yum!

The gloves are off in the Old Navy vs. Kim Kardashian lawsuit!

As you'll recall, Kim's demanding the retailer pay her $15-20 million for using a look-a-like in one of their commercials, but they beg to differ.

The Gap, which owns Old Navy, says their advertisements are protected by the First Amendment and they've hired top intellectual property lawyer Louis Petrich to make their case.

Thoughts???

Face palm!

Old Navy's selling a bunch of college t-shirts just in time for football season, unfortunately they're all grammatically incorrect.

Instead of printing "Let's Go!!" all the shirts read "Lets Go!!", which is wrong. An employee who actually sat through a first grade English lesson tried to fix the retailer's mistake in the item description, but the inconsistency makes it all the more embarrassing.

It's OK Old Navy, Wet Seal feels you're your pain.

As we mentioned earlier this week, Kim Kardashian is suing Old Navy claiming they used a Kardashian look-a-like to generate sales by having people think she�s associated with the retailer.

That look-a-like is Melissa Molinaro who coincidentally has also been linked to dating Kim�s ex, Reggie Bush.

But now Molinaro is speaking out about the whole lawsuit issue as she took to her Twitter account and stated:

�Were still talking about this?! Its JULY this aired in February…some people have too much time on there hands.

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!"

Take a look at the commercial in question above and then at some photos of Melissa below that she's Tweeted and then let us know…

Old Navy isn't the only retailer supporting the It Gets Better Project.

Bracelets and chokers are available online in gold or silver for $15.99 and $19.99.

Lawsuits can be a long, legal battle, and Todd Oldham knows that well.

Back in February 2009, the designer, who then served as Old Navy's design creative director, filed suit claiming the company had failed to negotiate in good faith.

Apparently they had planned to create a Todd Oldham signature line in addition to keeping him on his day-to-day post as creative director. The line never came to fruition, and Oldham filed suit.

Unfortunately for Oldham, the case was dismissed last year, but now it seems he’s back with a fighting chance.

A Manhattan appeals court reinstated claims by Todd that he was wrongfully terminated and his deal was broken.

The U.S. Second Circuit Court of Appeals stated Old Navy "made no argument, and pointed to no evidence" to challenge Oldham’s claim that he was "repeatedly and widely praised" by management as well as failed to negotiate in good faith to launch the line.

Oldham was initially seeking $75 million in lost royalties and reputational damages but lowered the amount to $20 million.

What’s Old Navy going to do now?
