American pop star Katy Perry lost a trademark battle with an Australian fashion designer, Katie Perry.

Australian designer Katie Taylor, who sells clothes under her birth name Katie Perry, sued the American pop star, Katy Perry saying her merchandise infringed a trademark she owned.

On April 28, 2023, a judge agreed that clothing sold for the singer’s 2014 Australian tour did breach Katie’s trademark.

Justice Brigitte Markovic wrote in her ruling: “This is a tale of two women, two teenage dreams, and one name,”

In her comment, the Judge says the pop star ‘Katy Perry’ whose real name is Katheryn Hudson, used the name Katy Perry in good faith. Therefore, she does not owe any personal; compensation to the designer.

Nevertheless, the star’s company, Kitty Purry, must pay damages, which the Judge will decide next month.
