Mutya lays claim to Sugababes name!

Posted by | Posted in , | Posted on Friday, March 05, 2010

Mutya Buena, one of the founding members of the chameleon-like, ever changing Sugababes has finally put her foot down and launched a legal battle to take charge of the Sugababes name and brand. A decision will be reached in the coming months, but if she is successful she will be able to use the groups name and brand how she see's fit...namely stripping it from the current lineup. Could this mean the possibility of a re-group of the three original members - Keisha Buchanan, Siobhan Donaghy and Buena? It would meet a lot of praise from fans of the 'Babes original sound but last I checked, Siobhan had moved on and the last thing I can imagine her doing is re-grouping.

A response comes from the groups snake-in-the-grass; Heidi Range, stating that the group is aware of the proceedings but it isn't bothering them. She also claims they have the right to use the name and they have lawers taking care of the issue.

This comes in perfect timing for the Sugababes latest release, Sweet 7 which hits shelves on 15th March 2010. Extra publicity needed much?
