Tom Cruise has blasted Vanity Fair magazine for using images of his daughter Suri from her first 2006 photo shoot without consent.

The handsome star has sent blistering letters to the mag's Editor-in-Chief and the Web Editor for VanityFair.com, through his lawyers, Radar Online reported.

His attorneys explained in the letter that when the photo shoot had taken place, the actor had provided the publication with a limited license to publish Suri's photographs.

But now the publication is exploiting the photos on its website in numerous ways, all of them exceeding the scope of the magazine's limited license and in violation of the agreement, his attorney's claimed.

The lawyers asserted that in light of the publication's agreement violation, Cruise has elected to terminate, revoke, and rescind their limited license to use the photos, adding that if the images were used again by the mag, Cruise will sue them for 150,000 dollars in damages per photo.
