Keisha Buchanan To Sue

Over the Sugababes name...

By: Deepika Rajani on March 1, 2010

There is nothing like a woman scorned and Keisha Buchanan is the perfect example of that as she is trying to ban Amelle Berrabah, Heidi Range and Jade Ewen from calling themselves the Sugababes.

What's Keisha's problem? I hear you ask...

Well, according to the Daily Mirror, Keisha who formed the band believes that over the past 12 years, the Sugababes brand has turned into a multi million pound business.

And she has given them a harsh choice: either change the name of the band or pay her a one off sum that could cost millions.

What should the girls do?
The current members of Sugababes.

An industry insider said: “This is a landmark case and will send shock waves through the  industry...The Sugababes are one of the most successful girl bands of all time, but if they are forced to change their name, it would be absolutely disastrous for them.”

Speaking about Keisha: “Keisha was an integral member from the very beginning so its easy to understand why she is acting like this.”

Oh dear could this be the most bitter band break up ever?

If Amelle, Heidi and Jade can't be the Sugababes, what should they rename themselves as?

  • I support Keisha 100 per cent! IF Heidii, Amelle and Jade are so talented as some people think then this is they chance to prove it and drop the name 'sugababes' and see if they have the same success without the name!!!!

  • I love Keisha, hope this is true. Suprised she hasn't thought of sueing yet already. If it happened to me I would be acting a lot less civil than the classy Miss Buchanan.

  • Get a Grip the record label own the rights to the name not keisha. look at prince having to change his name due to the company owning the rights it it. End of the day Heidi has been apart of the Sugababes since they became succesfull so why shouldnt she be able to use the name too.
