Bootleggers Beware

Filed under: Legal Matters > Jay-Z > Mary J. Blige

Mary J. Blige and Jay-Z are surely going to rip it up tomorrow at NY's Nassau Coliseum.

But bootleggers better not show up to the concert cause Mary J. is out to get you!

Miz Blige has filed a lawsuit against counterfeiters who will be selling knockoff tour T-shirts and merchandise outside the venue.

A source reports, "She is suing John Does and Jane Does numbered 1 though 100, so law enforcement can confiscate the bogus stuff as they are selling it. They are sued under fictitious names because their true names are unknown at this time."

No one messes with Mary J. Or her profits!

      I think white girls should breed with black men. We all could be zebra's. No more men for the black woman. No more welfare. The dark one's are too dark. Barrack made me think of this. I want a black man and I won't leave any left for the black woman.

      Makes sense. An artist makes WAY more on tickets and merch at a show that on album sales. T-Shirt scams will cost her WAY more than album downloads.

      Not that I'd go see any of those two in concert, but I certainly wouldn't buy any merchandise. Mary J or Jay Z have enough money, they don't need to be making more money off merchandise!

      she doesn't have to worry so much at the coliseum. Most people rush out and get in their cars and leave. I have rarely seen people out there selling bl. Now, if she is performing at the garden, yes, bl are all over the place. Still, hope she does this in each venue she performs.

      I think white girls should breed with puerto rican men. We all could be zebra's. No more welfare. No more men for the puerto rican women. The dark puerto ricans are too dark. Rosie Perez and fasio Lupe made me think of this. I want a puerto rican man and I won't leave any left for the puerto rican woman.

      Yeah….b/c she doesn't make enough money and those poor schlubs are just taking so much from her by selling a few 10 dollar shirts to her FANS who can't afford to pay THIRTY DOLLARS…who by the way MADE HER RICH.

      Enjoy your fancy life now b/c like everyone else who bows to the dollar you'll regret it on your deathbed.

      Re: Lisa –

      Wow. Your comment is a testament to how bad our educational system has become.

      You may want to review: Spelling, grammar, and a dictionary.

      People should not steal from these artists. Metallica sued over this also and who can blame them?

      That is ridiculous. You would think a "former" junkie and prostitute would not be so petty.

      What's A Concert Without Them???? Come on now…we all have been guilty of buying the bootleg shirts and pictures…Are we all afraid to admit it????

      38

      i saw this concert in miami… amazing
      but they didn't sell teeshirts at all
      so why is she suing?
      its not cutting into her profits

      41

      She's stupid. I don't think you can bring a lawsuit unless someone has actually harmed you — you can't preemptively sue for something that hasn't been done yet. All that money and she's still dumb as dirt.

      45

      Everyone with enough money to pay the lawyers does this, common practice for any arena tour… it's the artist actively protecting their copyright. No biggie

    46. eww says – reply to this


      46

      what a stupid GREEDY BITCH. what a waste of time, the money she's spending on lawyers should be donated to a charity. washed up asshole.

      Re: shakeesha – Wow! What an ignorant fool. I guess I can come back with something just as ignorant….take the black man and take his AIDS too!

      Re: HATE HER!! – Wow. The people, ignorant people, that post on these Caucasian blogs. The hatred is RAMPANT!!! Make talented Whitney Houston out to be the most terrible crack head but hold Save Britney Spears campagins. Black people still don't have a chance in America. Barack's speech meant nothing to the fear in the heart of Caucasians. It's obvious there are cultural differences but to think that somehow you're superior…well, I beg to differ giving the ignorant comments.
