Source: Allen Berezovsky / Getty Woman With Rights To “Blue Ivy” Trademark Want’s $10 Million The Carter’s have been trying to obtain the rights to the “Blue Ivy” name since 2012 after the birth of their daughter, but have been unsuccessful due to wedding photographer Victoria Morales and her company already owning the name. Beyoncé’s representation allegedly reached out, but the request was denied and Morales responded and reportedly tried to sell her company to Bey in a multimillion -dollar deal. This is where things may have gone sour as Morales took a shot at an “opportunity for a business relationship rather than an adversarial proceeding.” The wedding planner allegedly put together a Power Point presentation stating why the Carter’s should buy her wedding planning business, in addition to the Blue Ivy trademark.She propositioned them with the idea that they could “begin producing products and goods” together, in a deal allegedly offered for $10 million. Beyonce wasn’t having any of that and her legal team is now demanding the presentation be handed over to the courts as evidence that Morales’ trademark opposition is purely a “money-making scheme”.

Did Barry Allen manage to find a way to save himself from a lengthy stint in prison? That was the big question on The Flash Season 4 Episode 10 , and things did not look good for him when the episode kicked off. Cecile took a leave of absence from the DA’s office. Watch The Flash Season 4 Episode 10 Online Anton Slater was on hand to take Barry down in the courtroom. Let’s just say things were not looking good after a knife was entered into evidence. The same knife someone bought Barry and Iris for their wedding. This gave Anton the ultimate leverage because he essentially said nothing was sacred to Barry, and it helped turn the jurors against the speedster. Barry had a severe lack of defense. It was painful to watch because we know that DeVoe and his sidekick cooked up the plan because DeVoe needed the new body to become The Thinker. Given that everyone in the courtroom was turning against Barry, the team needed to act fast. Ralph managed to get pictures of Marlize kissing The Thinker, and they were presented to the court. But Marlize knew how to weather the storm and said that her husband sent her to the man because he could fulfill needs that DeVoe could not. It was all very believable, and it proved something bigger was needed to get Barry out of the clutches of the law. Cecil admitted that the only for Barry to be set free was for him to confirm the truth, but Barry was against the idea of it. He felt like nobody would take him seriously if they knew who he was. That’s when Iris decided to take it upon herself to tell the world the truth, but Barry stopped her at the last second and used a new speed trick to have a full blown conversation with her in the courtroom. He did not want to put his loved ones in any danger and felt like everyone would be on the run and look over their shoulders. It would make more sense for Barry to let the iron fist of justice have its way. In the end, Barry was found guilty of murder and was shocked to find out that he would be spending the rest of his life in Iron Heights without parole. This was met with floods of tears from Iris. Barry argued with DeVoe before sentencing, and DeVoe said that there was no way Barry and his group could have won, but Barry said that he would find a way to save himself and his friends. In a poignant turn, Barry was sent to the same cell his father was in all those years ago. What did you think of the episode? Sound off below! The Flash continues Tuesdays on The CW!

With all the talk surrounding Meghan Markle and the family into which she’s about to become a member, a certain someone would like to remind folks about Meghan Markle’s actual family. And that certain someone is her half-sister, Samantha Grant. Grant has become somewhat of a celebrity herself ever since Markle entered the mainstream conversation early last year. She has been granting interviews and trying to get her name out there on a frequent basis for several months now. In the latest case of Grant attempting to capitalize off her sibling’s fame, Grant sat down and spoke to Fox News about various rumors surrounding the soon-to-be Mrs. Prince Harry. “Don’t believe anything you read in tabloids,” Grant says. “Those stories are written to create controversy and sell magazines.” In this initial case, the topic at hand was chatter that Markle would be walked down the aisle by her mother, NOT her father, because she isn’t especially close to her dad. (The former actress’ parents have been divorced for years.) “My father, when we see these tabloids, and it’s every day, we just roll our eyes,” Grant explains, adding: “There are so many rumors, like Meghan doesn’t get along with her dad or he’s reclusive. He’s not. “They talk regularly… Her relationship growing up with him was great. It’s still great now.” Thomas Markle lives a quiet life in Mexico and is on record as saying he would love to walk Markle down the aisle on her wedding day, which is scheduled for May 19. “My father is very close to Meg,” continued Grant, elaborating: “All of that perception created by the press is a horrible, despicable lie… It’s really unfortunate and it has caused the family a lot of pain… It’s atrocious. “And if I’ve had billions of dollars, there are about 50 publications I would go after and sue… But I’m in a wheelchair. I don’t have time or energy to be doing all of that.” Grant has been offered a TLC special and has claimed in the past that she plans to write a tell-all about Markle. Many quickly assumed this memoir (titled “The Diary of Princess Pushy’s Sister”) would be a hatchet job, but Grant now insists she’s been misunderstood. And so has the relationship between her and Markle, who did not grow up in the same house because they are 17 years apart in age. “My relationship with my sister for a while was really hurt because of the perceptions out there,” says Grant. “And I have to say, my book’s not what all of these people are saying it is… Just because it has the word ‘pushy’ doesn’t mean it’s a slamming tell-all… I was making fun of the tabloids… “My goal is really to show how lovely and amazing she is. I look forward to the both of us hopefully laughing over this.” What about the rumor that Grant and Markle have not spoken in a decade? “We spoke in 2014,” Samantha swears. “That doesn’t make us estranged by a decade… When you got someone in the family who is famous, just because they jet-set and have a busy, distracting life, it doesn’t mean anyone in the family is estranged… “Our families have always been very much in touch. And certainly growing up, we were very close.” Still… they haven’t talked in four years?!? Grant simply chalks this up to Markle being “busy” with her career, which took off thanks to her role on the USA Network hit Suits. In conclusion, Grant thinks she’ll be invited to Markle and Harry’s wedding . “I would be honored and to the best of my knowledge, I’m going [to the wedding],” she says. “That’s all I will say… I [still] see her as my little Meggie. She’s a woman now, but I still see her as my baby sister.” We think Samantha may be in for a major disappointment. View Slideshow: Meghan Markle and Prince Harry: Official Engagement Photos!
