Country music star, Keith Urban has filed suit against Keith Urban, no its not a case bipolar disorder…Keith Urban the country singer from Australia is suing Keith Urban the painter from New Jersey. The New Jersey Urban owns keithurban.com and uses the site to sell his wares, a variety of oil paintings.

According to Country Keith, is accusing New Jersey Keith of trademark infringement and alleges New Jersey Keith is misleading site visitors, but is he? Are we to believe that country Keith is the only person in the world with the name Keith Urban?

New Jersey Keith registered his domain (keithurban.com) in 1999, one year before Country Keith’s American debut in 2000. So exactly who is misleading whom? Perhaps New Jersey Keith should sue Country Keith for disrupting his painting career.

By Country Keith’s reckoning only he can profit from his name and talent. This case is about as ridiculous as the Portland man who sued Michael Jordan for being a look alike and ruining his life…
