People of Occupy Wall Street, you may now return to your homes because the fight is finally over.
Lady Gaga has won an injunction against a cartoon character named Lady Goo Goo, according to Billboard.biz.
The offending culprit–a glamorous blonde baby rocking The Fame-era sunglasses–was a character featured in the virtual pet adoption game Moshi Monsters, founded by British company Mind Candy.
From Billboard:
British company Mind Candy is behind the Moshi Monsters site, which allows children to adopt a virtual pet monster.
Its characters include Lady Goo Goo, a sunglasses-wearing blonde baby who appears in “The Moshi Dance,” a video that became an online hit after it was posted on Google Inc.’s YouTube site in June.
The company had planned to release the song as a single, but this week’s British High Court ruling bars it from “promoting, advertising, selling, distributing or otherwise making available to the public” any work involving Lady Goo Goo.
Law firm Mishcon de Reya confirmed it had represented Lady Gaga in the case, but did not give further details.
Mind Candy founder Michael Acton Smith said the ruling was “a huge disappointment.”
“It was all done in the name of fun, and we would have thought that Lady Gaga could have seen the humor behind this parody,” he said.
The humor? THE HUMOR, GOOD SIR? You make me SICK.
As one can plainly see in the video above of Goo Goo’s song “The Moshi Dance,” the demon child wears a variety of zany things on her head, including (but not limited to) an octopus, spaghetti, and a boombox. Simply revolting. (It should be noted, however, that “The Moshi Dance” remains catchier than Gaga’s latest single, “Yoü and I.”)
Luckily, Mother Monster has put an end to the madness by formally aborting the imposter glitter baby. In other words?
SUCK IT, GOO GOO.
In related news, the suit against Lady Gaga for her infringement upon Madonna‘s entire career remains ongoing.
LOLOLOL JK: JUST BEING MAD SHADY, Y’ALL!
