Is it just me or is she a tad over confident* given her age (23) and musical career achievments?
I mean - her CV doesn't read like Mr. Barlow's now does it?
*really quite cocky
Shame on you Starship hang your head.
needs wrapping in cling film
If I was 23 and asked to be a judge on one of the biggest shows on tele i'd be feeling pretty confident too
And yes, yes I would 😉
Well she's a good deal better off and more sucessful than I was at 23.
What about you DS?
I have a suspicion that by the time she's 30, she'll either be running the planet, or we will all be dead by her hand
we will all be dead by her hand
😯
Base tugger is she?

Second option is preferable.

Stolen my mates Band name "The Risk" that they've had for 30 years, signed to a label and they've had releases/tours etc, won't change the name of her band and her response was "sue me". Not something my mate can afford to do.
Is your mate in N-Dubz?
Do they have T-Shirts? If they have T-shirts, it actually becomes a lot easier
I'd risk it.
But only for a biskit.

2 options; either find some young lawyer looking to make a name for him/her self who'll take on a dead certain case on a no win no fee basis. Or start touring imediately after they're kicked out of the competition and enjoy the reflected glory of their namesakes, the groupies and sold out gig's.

With her 'The Risk' of catching an STD would be pretty high.
UncleFred - they've done pretty much the same with a charity called Rhythmix:

...or tell the tabloids. They'll jump on it.

X-Factor is PureEvil 👿
Surely your mate's band can prove prior use?
I hope he has the web address...
Did you say???CaptJon - Member
Is this them:
Myspace is blocked at work. I'll have to try at home.
Was it this?
Yep, he definately did say
The risk is a bit of a rubbish name for band. She's done your mates a favour really.
So it was [url= http://www.myspace.com/therisktherisk ]http://www.myspace.com/therisktherisk[/url]?
Why t-shirts, out of curiosity?
She's very pretty and has a good voice however is this all the qualifications required for the role of judge on a high profile show?
John Peel would never have had a band on doing a session with a name like The Risk. What's wrong with Grandma Wobblebottoms Spangly Hatstand? Or Sprinkler Envy in the Conurbation?
They are the requirements for the winner of the show so I guess they can be the requirements for the judges too.

Cheryl Cole was poorly qualified on both counts and I believe she did it for many a year.
*goes to shower to remove the soiled feeling for commenting on such matters*

You can't diss Oor Cheryl though. She's officially a National Treasure (TM).
And wasn't Danni Minogue a judge? A woman who's career was eclipsed by her sisters bottom*, which was actually considerably more talented!
* not literally, obviously

I could point you towards a third, essential, qualification... Confidence.

She does seem to have been forgiven rather quickly for her ABH conviction. And can we really consider any woman who married Ashley Cole a national treasure?
I wouldn't mess with Tulisa either or she might set her cousin and fellow band member Dappy on you. Two counts of assault (spitting on ladies!) leading to a suspended sentence. Arrested for making death threats with a gun. Dragged off a plane after being abusive towards kids and other passengers. Bullying random folk by text. He even got ejected from Alton Towers!
I dispair at our choices of National Treasures.

Not since Noel's sidekick was found molesting Cheryl Baker has anyone been deserving of the label.
Mr Blobby has shagged Cheryl Baker?
He never quite managed it as Cheggers was on hand to preserve her dignity.
Mmm if only 😥
Why t-shirts, out of curiosity?
Basicly, goods and services are divided into classes.
e.g. a band could be called Orange (I think) without any issues.
However Easyjet were stoped from launching a mobile range as their logo would be too similar to the Orange phone logo, so the two companies cannot opperate in any market that the other is already in. Orange having altready trademarked that shade of orange.
If the band already has T-shirts, then the X-Factor would be unable to sell clothing, or anything else from that class of goods without infiringing the bands copyright. As merchandise is a big earner for bands they'd possibly be more likely to do something about it.
Cheggers! Ho ho. From prime time presenter of KIDS TV to getting his walnut whip* out on some naked game show on a backstreet channel.
Maybe he should go back to the days when he used to stash bottles of spirits in bushes on the route of his dog's walk!
TSY - yes confidence is a useful virtue in this role but what constitutes this is very subjective.

Well you live and learn
Just a cross in a box binners.
Thats what they said at the last election. And just look what's happened!! Pah! 🙁

If they do kick up a stink, they could win - Ubisoft have been blocked from releasing Rocksmith in Europe because there's a band with the same name. I don't think they even have to take them to court, they can put in a trademark objection claiming prior use - given that they're both musical acts the case is even stronger. Although I don't know if there's some leniency on band names, I'm sure there's been multiple Skid Rows...
