Yoko Ono sues Suicide Girl

2008-02-14 by cometuesday | 28 Comments
Yes, that's right. Widow of the late John Lennon and undisputable nutjob Yoko Ono is suing Suicide Girl Lennon Murphy, which is the girl's alleged legal name, for "intentionally exploiting the name and confusing people by using it". Murphy, who was supposedly named after Lennon in the first place, has been under the watch of Ono since the year 2000 when Ono first became aware of her presence on the site.

I play music, my name is Lennon, and the most heartbreaking thing out of this whole situation is the insult it gives to my late mother and who she believed in; on top of demeaning the man that John Lennon was and will always be.

Meh, her musics not bad. Appreciate it ASBerg. Actually true, I never really thought about why she didn't use her whole name.

i suppose i don't understand??? what does her being named after lennon confusing? if she had the name John Lennon it would, why would they take Yoko seriously? "oh your suing someone because their name is kind of similar to John Lennon??"

Someone UPDATE this news.
http://www.gigwise.com/news.asp?contentid=40788
The statement concludes: ‘Yoko did not sue Lennon Murphy, but sought to stop her from getting the exclusive right to the name Lennon for performance purposes. For that, Yoko's attorneys, simply notified the Trademark office that Yoko did not believe it was fair that Ms. Murphy be granted the exclusive right to the "Lennon" trademark in relation to musical and entertainment services.’

When I first glanced at this article I though it said Yoko Ono commits suicide and then immediately clicked it. Kind of dissappoined now, though this is still funny.

She's blaming someone for the same thing she did...using Lennon's name to get noticed by the media. Hypocrite.

I like the maturity of the people writing for this website: referring to a figure in the music industry as a "undisputable nutjob" right on the first paragraph of what is supposed to be a news story. It's like the Fox News Channel decided to start a music website! Douchebag.

Yes, you do have a generic username. And a very limited taste in muzak. (Intentional spelling.)

It's perfectly valid. Fox's incredibly unfair and unbalanced views have been widely reported. They might as well call anybody who doesn't confer to their conservative viewpoint "Satan".This Message Edited On 02.15.08This Message Edited On 02.15.08

No, just take out the "undisputable nutjob" part. ("undisputable" isn't even a word.)
