Overview
Lady Gaga, whose real name is Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, has sued a company called Excite Worldwide for trying to trademark her name for its cosmetic and jewelry products called Lady Gaga By Design, according to US media reports Thursday.
Lawyers for the Born This Way singer filed the suit Wednesday in Manhattan, claiming that the company's application with the US Patent and Trademark Office would prevent her from marketing her own branded products, which include Lady Gaga candles, key chains, bags, towels, lanyards, tattoos, wigs and ornaments, according to the New York Daily News.
The company's attempt to use her name falsely implies her endorsement of its products, the lawsuit claimed. Lady Gaga is seeking unspecified damages.
