Drake: God’s Plan

The singer filed to trademark the popular phrase ‘God’s plan’ in reference to the song from his album, Scorpion. The musician had plans to use the phrase for things like clothing, merchandise, and a TV game show. Attempting to trademark such a common religious phrase did not go well.

Cardi B: Okurrr

The exaggerated version of ‘OK’ was apparently made popular by many different sources, but the rapper attempted to trademark it for merchandising purposes.

Donald Trump: You’re fired!

Trump often used the phrase ‘you’re fired!’ on his show The Apprentice and attempted to trademark it for games, clothes, and casino services. The US Patent and Trademark Office turned it down because it was too similar to the educational game ‘You’re Hired!’

Kim Kardashian: Kimono

The reality star recently faced serious backlash after releasing a line of shapewear with the name ‘kimono,’ which she filed to trademark back in 2018. People have accused Kim of cultural appropriation that disrespects the traditional Japanese garment, so she decided to change the name.
