Source: TVGuide.com
Keith Urban is suing Keith Urban. Confused? Urban the country singer is suing Urban the oil painter over a website name. Urban the painter owns www.keithurban.com, and sells his oil paintings from that site. Urban the singer owns www.keithurban.net, and well, we all know what that site is for.
Anywhoo, Urban the singer says that the imposter site is infringing on trademarks and cybersquatting laws and such, and he wants the painter to shut down the site, turn over all rights to the domain name, plus some monetary damages.
The lawsuit states that the Web site is being used "in a manner likely to deceive the public into believing that the website has a connection to Plaintiff that does not exist."
