Mattel Sues China ‘Porno’ Barbie

Posted by wcbelew on December 6th, 2010 in Weird | No Comments

China Barbie is 34D-22-33 (all natural) and used to work behind the desks of some of the world’s leading investment banks and advertising agencies in New York. What she did behind those desks is another story.

Mattel Inc., the toy maker, doesn’t care. Mattel says the, um, lady is smearing 48-year old Barbie, Skipper, Midge and Kevin.

A lawsuit has been filed in a US District Court in Manhattan.

Gee, and I thought all the goofical (goofy + nonsensical) lawsuits were limited to California.

Mattel says that the reputation of the 1 billion or so Barbie dolls that have been sold for $2 billion or more is being dragged through Internet gutters.

Mattel wants:

1.  the domain name of the web site transferred to Mattel

2. damages awarded of up to $100,000

3. profits that Global China Networks has garnered to be handed over.

What Mattel will give is money to lawyers who have much lower morals than China Barbie AND a lot of publicity to a woman who otherwise nobody would never have noticed.

Lesson- perhaps sometimes it is better to NOT do anything.

Socrates – when men speak evil of you, live so that nobody will believe them.

That goes for Barbie, too.
