Madonna wasn’t expecting this one: After baptizing the clothing line she created with her daughter Lourdes Maria, to Macy’s ,with the name of one of her biggest hit "Material Girl", the pop queen is being taken to court by a Los Angeles company that is accusing her of inappropriate use of the name.
* In a lawsuit filed in federal court in California, Triumph Inc. says that the name has already been trademarked in 1997 for a product line that was sold in the stores Nordstrom e Ross Stores. According to the company representatives, the fact that Madonna’s song was a success in 1984, doesn’t justify the use of the name.
* Macy’s didn’t want to comment on the subject and neither did the company Iconix Brand Group, that authorized the registry of the name, in last December. Let’s wait for the next chapters.
