American pop star Mariah Carey is trying to stop a porn star from trademarking the name Mary Carey, which is spelled and pronounced both in English. Very similar.

According to Reuters, the 26-year-old porn actress, whose real name is Mary Cook, has appeared in many pornographic films and has used Mary Kelly as her stage name since 2002. She submitted the documents needed to register earlier this month and said she was not afraid of threats from Mariah Carey. Previously, pop star Kelly's lawyer sent a letter to porn star Kelly's agent, stating that Mariah Carey would take legal action if the other party did not withdraw the registration application.

In view of the fact that the fields Mary Carey intends to register cover music records and videos, Mariah Carey’s lawyer wrote in the letter: “The two Kellys and the trademark fields registered by the two "It's very close, and it's likely to cause confusion." He also requested that Mary Carey only use her name in the adult entertainment industry and not in the music field. But the latter said he was ready to fight to the end and called singer Kelly's behavior "stupid." Mary Carey's lawyer also said that if she goes to court, it is unlikely that the "real" Carey will win.
