Mariah Carey's Porn Drama

Mariah Carey is trying to block porn star Mary Carey from trade marking her similar-sounding stage name, saying that fans could get the two performers confused reports Reuters

The singer sent the porn actress a letter warning her to withdraw the application or face a lawsuit.

"This is a technical procedure to stop a trademark registration. Mariah Carey has no affiliation with Mary Carey," said Mariah Carey's spokeswoman, Leslie Sloane-Zelnik

But the adult film actress, whose real name is Mary Cook, said on Friday that she would not be intimidated by the international superstar and will press forward with her trademark application.

"I'm ready to battle Mariah over this because I've been Mary Carey for a long time," Mary Carey told Reuters. "It's kind of funny because I'm a porn star and I've been being myself for a long time. I think she's being silly."

The star of such films as "Double Air Bags 11" and "Boobsville Sorority Girls," she started using the stage name Mary Carey in 2002 and once ran for California governor against Arnold Schwarzenegger, filed the trademark papers earlier this year.

David Beitchman, a lawyer for Mary Carey, said "My first thought was, does Mariah Carey realize what her lawyer is comparing her to and are they seriously concerned?" Beitchman added. "Do they seriously think the fans are going to be confused?"
