Taylor Swift Attempts to Trademark "Swiftmas," "1989," Might Be a Supervillain

Posted on December 14, 2015 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

It’s not uncommon for celebrities to trademark certain words and phrases that are commonly associated with their brand, but no one has ever wanted to own the words that come out of your mouth quite as much as Taylor Swift. Earlier this year, Taylor trademarked the phrase “this sick beat,”  so we probably owe her a dollar or something just for using it in this sentence. Now, T-Swizzle is coming for another chunk of the English language, as her team has reportedly filed for trademarks on the phrases “and I’ll write your name,” “1989,” “blank space,” “Swiftmas,” and “a girl named Girl.” A Girl Named Girl is the title of a novel that Taylor wrote when she was 15. We have to idea what the hell Swiftmas is, but yours won’t be very merry if you piss off Taylor’s legal team! As for copyrighting a year, well that’s just an act of cartoonish supervillainy that brings Taylor one step closer to global domination. So you better get those references to the fall of the Berlin Wall out of your system now, because soon enough all things 1989 will be property of Ms. Swift. The whole thing sounds insane, but we think we know what this is all about. View Slideshow: Taylor Swift Instagram Photos: This Singer Has Style! You see, 2015 was supposed to be looked back upon as The Year of Taylor Swift. Then some strange things happened. Adele broke Taylor’s sales records . Kendrick Lamar earned more Grammy nominations. Worst of all, Taylor’s sworn enemy Katy Perry was the year’s highest-earning musician .  Taylor celebrated her birthday over the weekend, and there’s not a doubt in our minds that when she blew out the candles, a high-ranking member of her squad asked her what she wished for and Taylor replied, “The world, mijo,” in her best Scarface voice before picking her teeth with a machete. Okay, maybe that’s just how we like to imagine things went down.

Serena Williams Named Sports Illustrated Sportsperson of the Year

Posted on December 14, 2015 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Serena Williams has served, volleyed and aced her way to an impressive athletic achievement. The tennis star has been named 2015 Sportsperson of the Year by Sports Illustrated, becoming the first sole female recipient of this honor since Mary Decker in 1983. “Serena has made a very strong case as not only the greatest tennis player of her generation but of all time, and after the string of performances she put together in 2015, she is one of the most dominant athletes playing today,” Sports Illustrated Group Editor Paul Fichtenbaum said in a statement. Williams won three Grand Slam titles over the past 12 months, losing in the semifinals of the U.S. Open in a stunning upset. “This year was spectacular,” Williams said in response to the distinction. “For Sports Illustrated to recognize my hard work, dedication and sheer determination with this award gives me hope to continue on and do better. “As I always say, it takes a village –  not just one person. This is not just an accomplishment for me, but for my whole team and all my fans. I am beyond honored.” But not everyone is happy with Serena earning the above cover, despite her record-breaking year. In a reader poll, Williams was defeated by multiple athletes, none of whom dated Drake . Ronda Rousey, Carli Lloyd and the entire Kansas City Royals baseball team earned more votes from random people than Serena. The creature who should have won Sportsperson of the Year, according to this poll? American Pharaoh, the Triple Crown-winning horse. Therefore, we now turn it over to you, THGers: DID SERENA WILLIAMS DESERVE TO WIN SPORTSPERSON OF THE YEAR? Yes, she’s amazing! No, it should have been American Pharaoh! What?!? A horse? Come on!
