Chris Brown, Live Nation Sued Over Breezy Bowl Trademark Dispute

Chris Brown and Live Nation are facing a trademark infringement lawsuit from Miami-based Breezy Swimwear regarding Brown's 'Breezy Bowl XX' tour. Breezy Swimwear claims it has owned the 'Breezy' trademark since 2018 and has been hosting an annual 'Breezy Bowl' event since 2023, promoting female empowerment and inclusivity. The swimwear brand alleges that Brown's use of 'Breezy Bowl' for his tour and merchandise has caused consumer confusion and diluted their brand, with fans mistakenly associating the two. Breezy Swimwear is seeking monetary damages and an injunction to stop Brown and Live Nation from using the disputed trademarks. Neither Brown nor Live Nation has publicly responded to the lawsuit, which coincides with the launch of the tour's North American leg in Miami. The dispute highlights tensions between celebrity branding and small business intellectual property rights.
