Blake 7,385 Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 She may have lost her man but devastated pop princess Kylie Minogue has one small consolation – she has hung on to something else close to her heart, her name. The singer and actress has won a legal battle with US reality TV star Kylie Jenner, a victory which will be a much needed boost for Miss Minogue, who last week confirmed she had split up from her fiance, British actor Joshua Sasse, 34. The I Should Be So Lucky star was said to have called off their engagement because of suspicions he had become close to 34-year-old Spanish actress Marta Milans. Jenner, 19, who appears in the TV show Keeping Up With The Kardashians and is half-sister to Kim Kardashian, applied to trademark the name Kylie in the US in April 2014. The move sparked a fierce feud with Ms Minogue, 48, whose legal representatives sent the US Patent and Trademark Office a long list of reasons why the trademark should not be granted. Describing Ms Jenner as ‘a secondary reality television personality’ the letter argued that, in contrast, Miss Minogue was an ‘internationally-renowned performing artist, humanitarian and breast cancer activist known worldwide simply as “Kylie”.’ Last week, the Patent Office rejected Ms Jenner’s application. Ms Jenner, who wants the name for her clothing and beauty empire, has already lodged an appeal. The one and only Kylie slaying again.

DeanWinchester 41,390 Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Not a big fan of Kylie (though she is pretty well known) but Jenner was stupid to think she deserved to be the only one called Kylie Flyin' like a 1000 Doves Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonsterPaws 2,739 Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Am I the only one who finds trademarking the name 'Kylie' ridiculous? Spoiler 'Kylie Minogue' or 'Kylie Jenner' is more understandable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morphine Prince 106,769 Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Both dumb for thinking they should be the only ones known for "Kylie" tbh. But if Minogue already had products and a brand with "Kylie" then it's understandable why Jenner shoudn't be granted the trademark. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaLuna 12,732 Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Kind of reminds me of when Paris Hilton wanted to trademark the phrase "That's hot" Good for Kylie Minogue, Jenner can have several seats Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morphine Prince 106,769 Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 The title of this thread though. Could be interprted as Kylie Jenner won the trademark over "Jenner" For those of us who know nothing about Minogue Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
holy scheisse 22,310 Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 She's not trademarking it so you can't name your child Kylie She was trademarking it so she could name her businesses products etc "Kylie" and nobody else could Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
