Lady Gaga threatens to sue BREAST MILK ice-cream makers for using her name

Lady Gaga

The 29-year-old singer has threatened legal action against a London-based company selling the tasty treat under the name Royal baby Gaga She’ll wear a frock made of raw meat, arrive to an awards ceremony in an egg and fashion a bra out of fireworks but don’t dare associate Lady Gaga’s name with breast-milk ice cream.

The 29-year-old singer has threatened legal action against a London-based company selling the tasty treat under the name Royal Baby Gaga.

Her lawyers are citing trademark infringements against The Licktators, who launched the flavour in May to mark the royal baby’s birth.

It’s made with scrumptious-sounding human breast milk –donated, then screened “in line with hospital standards” – and comes in a tub featuring a picture of a brunette breast feeding mother Brit solicitors for the star, Bear & Wolf, claim consumers will believe Royal baby Gaga is an official Lady Gaga product and she has authorised them to use her name.
They want all offending words to be removed from social media and cease to be used within 14 days.

A spokesman for Gaga declined to comment. But Licktators’ “General Custard” (yes, really) Nadine O’Connor tells 3am their limited-edition, breast-milk ice cream “neither names nor features Lady Gaga, nor are her trademarks infringed”.

She adds: “We will not be bullied into removing content from social media relating to our product and subsequent media coverage.

“However, we will send complimentary tubs of our ice cream to Lady Gaga for chilling out to, as a gesture of peace and goodwill.”

If our mammary serves us right, Lady Gaga sought action against Icecreamists in 2011 over their breast-milk flavour, Baby Gaga.

And she had another run-in this week when she slipped off the kerb and into the door of her white convertible
