There can only be one Kylie™ and it's not that Jenner one
There can only be one Kylie. And no, she ain't a Jenner.
Unofficial Queen of Australia, Kylie Minogue has been topping music charts all over the world for 30 years now, so it's no surprise the pop legend had a bone to pick with a certain 19-year-old impostor Kylie. And even less of a surprise that she came out on top.
Back in February, Kylie Jenner applied to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to buy a trademark on her first name, because of course she did. But not on Ms. Minogue's watch. Hoo, no.

The 48-year-old attempted to block the application from a certain "secondary reality television personality," citing her "internationally-renowned" fame as a recording artist and "humanitarian and breast cancer activist known worldwide simply as 'Kylie.'" Burn!
And that burn will sting even more, now that Minogue has won her legal battle, according to The Mail On Sunday.
The publication claims that the Patent Office officially rejected Jenner's trademark application last week.

But being the determined, young fashion and beauty entrepreneur that she is, Jenner has already lodged an appeal to the office.

Sorry, Jenner. You might be the first of your sisters to launch a successful lip gloss line or whatever, but you're playing with pure fire.
Kylie Minogue has owned the domain www.kylie.com since 1996. That's a year before you were even born.
Nobody messes with our Kylie. Or her numerous pop alter-egos.
Nothing like a veteran Aussie pop star to take you down a peg, huh?
Fun fact! Kylie is an Indigenous Australian name, meaning "boomerang" in the Nyungar language of the Noongar people of Western Australia.
