REPORTER IRINA AROYAN CAN BECOME OWNER OF “PHILIPP KIRKOROV” BRAND
- Dok.Finance company has issued an application for registration of “Kirkorov” brand. If the application is complied the well-known artist will be deprived of the right to use his last name for earning income. Dok.Finance company, member of Dok.Group network, has issued an application for registration of “Kirkorov” brand. If the application is complied the well-known artist will be deprived of the right to use his last name for earning income. As a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter came to know from the Dok.Group press office, the brand and service symbol are meant for individualization of goods, works or services of juridical or natural persons. Fearing that the names of the famous show business figures will be used without their consent by various companies, the “owners” of the names register them as brands, thus receiving a juridical shield. “Philipp Kirkorov” brand was registered October 18, 1998 by “Alla” privately owned enterprise controlled by Alla Pugacheva. The brand registration expired February 4, 2007. Although it still functioning, according to the e-base of the federal service of intellectual property, patents and brands. Proceeding from all above mentioned, you can make one conclusion: any moment any person can file an application to the chamber of patent disputes (a body at the federal service on intellectual property, patents and brands) on pre-term suspension of legal protection of “Alla Pugacheva” brand due to its disuse. After the chamber decides to suspend legal protection of the given brand and with written consent of Alla Borisovna’s namesake, you can easily address the above mentioned federal service and register “Pugacheva” brand. Meanwhile, Dok.Finance company representative, Alexander Kalugin told a PanARMENIAN.Net that after a year the right of brand ownership may be suspended. It’s not excluded that “Philipp Kirkorov” brand will be conveyed to reporter Irina Aroyan, as a person “who suffered from Philipp Kirkorov most of all.” During a news conference in 2004 Philipp Kirkorov insulted Irina Aroyan, who asked the singer about the great number of remakes in his repertoire. “You are a boor,” said the reporter and left the room. However, the singer’s bodyguards pounced on the woman and closed her mouth. They took her camera and dictaphone and tried to break them.
