His opponent at the Trademark Office was a reality TV star who registered first and claimed she had introduced him to the title of a proposed show. She still lost.
While not scripture of ecclesiastic precept, the United States Patent and Trademark Office has declared Tyler Perry to be the winner in a battle over “What Would Jesus Do.”
The other contestant in this bout was Kimberly Kearney, who was once known as “Poprah” on the VH-1 series, I Want to Work for Diddy.
