The band was on hiatus from late 2007 to early 2011. While on hiatus, Jack formed a group called the Dead Weather , although he insisted that the White Stripes remained his top priority. Dominique Payette, a Quebecois radio host, sued the band for $70,000 in 2008 for sampling 10 seconds of her radio show in the De Stijl song “Jumble Jumble” without permission. The matter was ultimately settled out of court. In early 2008, the band released limited-edition Holga cameras stylized around Jack and Meg.
