Pink and her team of attorneys have filed for legal action against Pharrell Williams over the trademark term “P.Inc.” The two are now in a legal dispute and Pink has filed an action to claim that Pharrell‘s attempt to trademark “P.Inc” will cause confusion with her own name an subsequently damager her business.
The legal paperwork indicates that the Pink had registered the “PINK” trademark in 2001 and believes that “P.Inc” could “cause confusion, mistake and/or deception” amongst people. Her company Lefty Paw Print has filed that case against Pharrell’s PW IP Holdings company. Pharrell’s company counters that “P.Inc” s a trademark for the producer’s “promotional marketing services in the field of music.” The application was initially filed last year but they faced pushback from lingerie company Victoria’s Secret, which the company claimed to is a legal dispute since it uses “Pink” in its branding. They have also indicated confusion, claiming a similar argument as the artist, Pink.
Rolling Stone reports that the suit claims, “[Williams’] P.Inc mark is similar to the PINK marks in sight, sound, meaning and commercial impression…[Williams’] and [Pink’s] goods and services are identical and/or closely related…[Williams] is likely to market and promote its goods through the same channels of trade and to the same consumers as [Pink].” The most recent legal dispute with Pink comes after the news of Pharrell and Chad Hugo entering legal disputes over the Neptunes trademark. Hugo is accusing Pharrell of seeking sole control of the group’s trademarks and doing so without consulting him. It remains to be seen how all these trademark disputes unfold and who will remain victorious.
