Louis Vuitton leather products could soon be a lot less exclusive – a European court has ruled that the brand has no right to trademark its iconic chequerboard pattern.

A firm-favourite of celebrities, Louis Vuitton has been trying to legally protect two of its designs since 2009. But now the EU General Court has said its dark brown and beige pattern trademark, which it registered back in 1998, and a black and grey version registered in 2008 cannot be exclusively used by the 160-year old French fashion-house. The court ruled the pattern was “basic and banal” and was composed of “very simple elements”.

Like all designer brands, Louis Vuitton takes its exclusivity very seriously – ruthlessly pursuing manufacturers of fake merchandise.

Burberry is still fighting a similar legal case to protect its famous Haymarket check. However, in 2012 a US court declared that no one but Christian Louboutin can use red soles on footwear.

Louis Vuitton is worth more than €20bn – a figure which makes it one of the world’s most valuable brands. It is currently headed by 43-year old Nicolas Ghesquiere, who was previously creative director at Balenciaga.

Six months after a violent outburst on a trans-Atlantic flight, Paris and Nicky Hilton’s little brother Conrad has been arrested and charged.  

The 20-year-old was on a flight from London to Los Angeles when he began yelling and shouting at passengers and crew in a bizarre meltdown.

According to witnesses, the heir was shouting: “I am going to fu**ing kill you … I will fu**ing own anyone on this flight; they are fu**ing peasants.”

His outburst was said to be traumatic for all aboard the plane – with small children becoming upset and distressed.

Conrad is also reported to have grabbed a crew member and said: “I could get you all fired in five minutes. I know your boss! My father will pay this out. He has done it before. Dad paid $300k last time.”

Robert Shapiro, lawyer for Paris’ younger brother has said that sleeping pill taken by his client meant that he was not himself on the flight.

Police are currently investigating terrifying threats made against Paris Hilton and her father, Rick.

The heiress to the Hilton Hotels, who is currently experiencing success as a DJ, has been subjected to frightening online harassment which include rape and death threats.

The perpetrator appears to mistakenly believe the 33-year-old star and her famous family are Jewish, and posts vile anti-Semitic remarks on social media aimed at the Hilton family. However, there is little doubt that the former Simple Life star is the main target.

Paris has had to deal with horrifying posts which encourage people to sexually assault her, with one remark saying: “Invite Paris to the match so we can gang rape her.” Another threat included the cruel taunt “One month and she’s dead. She’s never coming home.”

It has been reported that law enforcement officials in the States know the identity of the star’s harasser, but will be unable to make an arrest until verification via Facebook and Instagram has been confirmed.

We hope the situation is speedily rectified and Paris can move on from these very frightening events.

Justin Bieber strikes again ladies and gentlemen!

The troubled singer was clearly unimpressed by rumours that he and Paris Hilton had engaged in some romantic behaviour while in Paris.

He decided to tackle the rumours the only way he knows how: on Twitter.

Justin tweeted: “believe anything u want but don’t believe I went out with Paris Hilton, smh just cuz we’re seen at the same event. No offense. But ew.”

He later realised how mean that sounded (or someone thought it for him) and deleted the comment. 

Also, it was noted that he could have said something along the lines of “because I have a girlfriend” or “I love Selena” but chose instead to go with “But ew”…

Former star of The Simple Life (we miss that show) Paris Hilton has been forced to defend herself after her Instagram feed went into meltdown yesterday.

Paris shared a photo that showed herself as a child dressed up in a bunny outfit…but not just any bunny outfit as she described herself: “Dressing up as ‘Playboybunny for Halloween.”

It wasn’t long before her followers began to tell her just how wrong that actually is…

Never one to let others bring her down, Paris posted the photo again, this time taking time to defend herself: “By the way, to all the people that can’t take a joke. I was kidding. I wasn’t really dressed as a #Playboybunny. I was 5 years old & had no idea what that was. I was just dressed as a bunny on Halloween.”

However, many people are still quick to point out that bunnies don’t really look like that. Well, at that age you’re going for authenticity, right?

Paris Hilton's never one to look 'au naturel,' but she's gone one step further this time with some dodgy Photoshopping of her own photos.

The heiress uploaded a bikini shot yesterday, taken on a balcony in Ibiza. While we agree that Paris already has an incredible beach body, it seems the star did some retouching to the snap before uploading it, as her waist looks bizarrely small.


Comparing the picture to a paparazzi shot of Paris in the same bikini that day, it's fairly easy to spot the difference:

It's not the first time a celeb has been suspected of Photoshopping their own photos – Beyoncé, Kim Kardashian and Britney have all been in the spotlight for using similar tricks.

Socialite Nicky Hilton got engaged this weekend at Lake Como, Italy. Her boyfriend, banking heir James Rothschild, popped the question on a boat in the middle of the lake, a source told Us Weekly.

It seems no expense was spared by James in his preparation for the proposal. "Last month, he actually flew from England to the States to ask her parents for her hand in marriage," said the insider.

The newly-engaged couple met three years ago at supermodel Petra Ecclestone’s wedding in Rome, so Italy was the perfect sentimental spot for James to get down on one knee. "They are both really excited and incredibly happy," said the source.

No plans have been made for the pair’s upcoming nuptials, as they are currently celebrating their engagement with a road trip throughout Europe.

Hopefully this match will be second time lucky for Nicky, whose previous marriage lasted just three months. In 2004, the heiress wed childhood friend Todd Meister at a Las Vegas chapel. The marriage was annulled after Nicky admitted she had made the decision “on a whim.”

They used to be besties before Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton famously fell out following a feud in 2008.

But now it seems the 33-year-olds' friendship is back on track after Kim posted a snap of the pair partying together in Ibiza this weekend at Givenchy designer Riccardo Tisci’s 40th birthday bash.

Posting the picture on Instagram, she wrote, “Reminiscing about the 1st time we went to Ibiza in 2006! @parishilton it was so good to see you & catch up! Loves it lol.”

Paris also posted the same image, adding, “So much fun with @KimKardashian this weekend at @AmnesiaIbiza. The first time we ever came to this magical island was together. Such an amazing trip! Great catching up with you too beautiful! #Regram.”

Paris rose to fame before Kim on the reality show she shared with Nicole Richie.

However, Kim, who was working as Paris’ assistant at the time, fell out with her pal after she slated her during a radio show and compared Kim’s behind to “cottage cheese inside a big trash bag”.

MEEE-OW!

We’re glad to see everything’s back on track, guys!

Kelly Osbourne and Paris Hilton are said to have reignited their feud at the Coachella festival.

The on-off pals had a war of words during the first weekend of the music and arts festival in California, after hotel heiress Paris accused Kelly of blanking her.

Kelly was said to have been hanging out with friends in one of the Palm Springs event’s VIP areas, when Paris showed up and tried to join in.

Paris then stopped in her tracks and called Kelly a ‘bitch’ before storming off.

The exchange apparently prompted Kelly to get on Twitter, writing, “Please grow up, there is no need to act like a child you could of (sic) joined us it’s not 2005 no one cares.”

After close to 80 retweets from fans, the remark was deleted.

Eight years ago, Kelly accused the 33-year-old millionairess of being a “bad influence” on pre-pubescent teenage girls.

Not long after this, Kelly was left fuming at her 21st birthday party in Las Vegas when Paris’ then boyfriend Stavros Niarchos ruined the bash by trashing her hotel room.

The two later made up…sort of.

Kelly said of Paris, “We have fun together. I know that whatever I tell her, she tells everyone anyway, but I’ve always known she’s not the friend that you tell your deepest secrets to.”
