Lady Gaga has been entangled in a legal battle initiated by a surfboard brand, which alleges that she brazenly copied their logo for her latest album, as revealed in a fresh lawsuit. Lost International is taking Lady Gaga to court for trademark infringement concerning her "Mayhem" album, asserting their ownership of the term as it appears in the distinctive logo of their surf company and claiming that Gaga's adoption of it is virtually indistinguishable.
According to the lawsuit, accessed by TMZ, Lost boasts that they have been adorning their surfboards and merchandise with a stylized rendition of "Mayhem" for more than a decade. They accuse Gaga of plagiarizing this design for her most recent album cover. Lost has provided a side-by-side comparison of their "Mayhem" logo on their merchandise and Gaga's version, highlighting striking similarities.
The surf brand maintains that they have held the "Mayhem" trademark since 2015 and contends that Lady Gaga is illegally using the logo without authorization. They claim to have expressed their concerns to Gaga, but she allegedly did not cease using it, prompting them to file the lawsuit.
Lost International is seeking to prohibit Lady Gaga from utilizing the logo and is demanding compensation for damages, encompassing any profits she has garnered from her unauthorized use of the "Mayhem" logo. Our attempts to reach out to Lady Gaga's team for comment have yielded no response thus far.
