First the whole Kanye/VMA fiasco, which she rebounded from just fine with the announcement of her first fragrance, but now that doesn't seem to be going too smoothly either.
Abercrombie & Fitch filed a lawsuit in a Columbus, Ohio court yesterday to preempt the songstress from launching a fragrance under the name of her alter ego, "Sasha Fierce," reports WWD.
The complaint says Abercrombie began selling its own scent, "Fierce," in 2002 and had the name trademarked in 2003, according to the source.
Knowles filed a letter-of-intent application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office in September 2008 for the Sasha Fierce mark in the fragrance category. Abercrombie alleges that it sent a cease-and-desist letter to Knowles after learning of her intent, adds the source.
Coty responded by saying: "We can confirm at this time...that the terms Fierce and Sasha Fierce are not being used as names of a Beyonce fragrance," reports WWD.

TO PHIL: Okay I understand that you want them to sue her but you don't have to call her a Negro. The progression in the country is coming to a hault because of obnixious people like you that are ignornant to the things that they say. Maybe you should think about the content of your language before you go a dispurse on issues that have nothing to do with you. The english dictionary has over 1 million words in it and you choose to pick an obnixious word like that. It really reflects poorly on your character.
