With Eminem holding trademarks for “SHADY” and “SLIM SHADY” since the early 2000s, his lawyers argue the name is too similar and could confuse fans. The case, which began when the Real Housewives of Potomac stars launched their podcast and tried to trademark it for merchandise, is now heating up with deadlines pushed to April 27. Dixon’s sworn testimony, combined with the lack of any evidence of suppliers or marketing plans, is becoming a major weapon for Eminem’s team. The trademark board hasn’t ruled yet—but if they accept this new argument, Dixon and Bryant will have to defend their claim despite clear signs they never planned to sell those products.
