Beyonce sued by Abercrombie & Fitch over fragrance

-
My Favorite store...Abercrombie & Fitch, is suing Beyonce and trying to stop the singer from launching a new line of fragrances. The lawsuit was filed on Tuesday and the company claims a fragrance under the singer's "Sasha Fierce" label "poses a likelihood of confusion" with the retailer's own "Fierce" brand.They also feel that such confusion could deprive it of control over a trademark it has used since 2002, and perhaps cost it sales. The lawsuit seeks to halt potential trademark infringement, unfair competition and deceptive trade practices.

But on Wednesday, Coty executives said they do not intend to name the fragrance after Beyonce's alter-ego -- Sasha Fierce -- and hence it would pose no threat to Abercrombie's product.[source]

What are some of the challenges that come with being the writer, the producer, the director, the promoter of your shows and company Leslie Pryor Productions LLC? Wow.. And Marketer/ PR and the list goes on. So yes the main challenge is wearing every hat at the right place and time. Being the writer is different from the director and being the…

You ever have someone tell you to be still and you’re like, “I am being still!” lol, I have heard that statement I don’t know how many times the past two years. I have also asked myself I don’t know how many times this past year, “what does being still really mean?” Like, “what does God want me to do? Stand in a corner until he sends for me?” Like, “am I not being still?” Today, I realized, that though I thought I was being still. I was not. Psalm 46:10-11 says, Be still and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations. I will be exalted in the earth. The Lord of host is with us; The God of Jacob is our refugee. My God, My God. Scripture to me in many ways isn’t always self-explanatory but this here word, is! Being still means despite how things looks around you from your vantage point, trust God. Place all your insecurities, worries and doubts on him. He will fight the battles that you can only fight in the physical. Stop trying to control things, God doesn’t need any hel…
