A Toronto escort who calls herself Chanelle is being sued by Chanel
 

Wow, this is fucked up!

"A Toronto escort who calls herself Chanelle is being sued by Chanel, the international perfume and fashion giant and its Canadian subsidiary, for infringement of its trademarks.

"To me, this is frivolous," said Chanelle, a 39-year-old who asked that her real name not be used. She received the statement of claim yesterday morning and said she couldn't believe it as she read through the legal documents filed by the perfume giant in Federal Court in Montreal.

"It doesn't make any sense," she said. She has 30 days to file a statement of defence and plans to do so.

"I'm going to fight it," she said during a telephone interview."

Eactly..

I think the producers of Sesame Street and Oscar De La Renta should step in the ring next.

Rofl, funny dumb story !

The lawyers have too much time on their hands :glugglug

They C&D'd me for a domain some years back, I forget exactly which, but it was something along the lines of "foodchanel.com"...pissed me off because it should have been the owners of foodchannel.com (or whoever it was) C&D'ing me, not Chanel. :) Oh well, I C'ed and I D'ed anyway.
