Foolish Mutya!



When Mutya Buena heard that she’d won a legal battle against the Sugababes to obtain the legal use of the group’s name she probably envisaged being able to make loads of money as a result of her victory.

That’s why she took to Facebook to proudly announce:

“I won the official name of the Sugababes now!!! I deserve this! I’m over the moon!”

We suspect the singer may not have read the fine print beneath her legal win though, because if she had she would’ve seen that she’s only won the right to use the Sugababe name on “certain paper products”.

So she can only use it on stationery, paper gift wrap and paper gift wrapping ribbons.

Meanwhile the existing group have maintained the right to use the name Sugababes in all areas of commercial activity that the band requires, e.g. within the music, sound recording and entertainment industry.

Plus they’ve also being granted extensive rights to produce a wide variety of their own merchandise.

Basically Mutya went through all of this for nothing.

Still, she can always knock up a few cards and start selling them out of her car boot if she wants.
