Mutya Buena applies to own Sugababes name

Mutya Buena applies to own Sugababes name

Mutya Buena left the band in 2005 to pursue a solo career
Founding Sugababes member Mutya Buena has applied for ownership of the band's name, her legal firm has confirmed.

The star, who quit the band in 2005, has applied to the European Trademarks Authority for permission. Her request has been registered, but not approved.

The last of the Sugababes' original members, Keisha Buchanan, left last year, and was replaced by Jade Ewen.

At the time, Buena said: "It just means the Sugababes have ended because there are no original people remaining".

She added: "It kind of doesn't make sense that there is Sugababes any more. I don't know if it's just me, but Keisha being the original that was left out of the band, her leaving doesn't make it Sugababes really

'Lack of trust'

If Buena's application is successful, it could mean that she will own the rights to use the Sugababes name on goods such as CDs, DVDs and books.

Kilburn and Strode, the firm that has put forward the application, said they were "hopeful" registration would be passed in a few months.

Former band members Buchanan and Siobhan Donaghy are also named on the document, but Kilburn and Strode told the BBC that Buena was the "sole applicant".

The current line-up, which also includes Heidi Range and Amelle Berrabah, are expected to attend the launch of their new album later.

Sweet 7 is the first release by the new trio, and has been delayed while Ewen re-recorded Buchanan's vocals.

Buchanan has always maintained that it was not her decision to leave the pop group last September.

At the time, the band's official website said she had quit to focus on her solo career.

But she blamed "a breakdown in communication" and "lack of trust" for her no longer singing in the band.

On the social networking site Twitter, Buchanan said: "Although it was not my choice to leave, it's time to enter a new chapter in my life.

"I've had a great time and have achieved more then I ever thought I would."

Representatives for the former and current line-up of the Sugababes were not immediately available to comment on the trademark application.

Launch Hope I get to see them this close :-)

Ain't that sweet! Sugababe Amelle Berrabah beams after a date with mystery man

Ain't that sweet! Sugababe Amelle Berrabah beams after a date with mystery man

Following a difficult few months, it looks like Amelle Berrabah finally has something to smile about.
The Sugababes singer, 25, was spotted cosying up to a mystery man in a London hotel last night.
The pop star, who has been single since splitting from long-term love Freddie Fuller exactly a year ago, was spotted beaming with delight as she left the May Fair Hotel.

Who's that boy? Amelle Berrabah cosies up to a mystery male companion in the lobby of the May Fair Hotel last night
Berrabah looked deep in conversation with her shaven-haired companion and the pair looked very tactile with each other as they shared a bottle of wine.

Wearing a cropped white T-shirt and skinny black jeans, the Hampshire beauty appeared unconcerned by the chilly temperatures as she greeted photographers outside the five-star hotel.
Although Berrabah has been single since ending her six year relationship with Fuller last year, she's been linked to several men in recent months.

Intimate: The pair enjoy a close conversation before Berrabah's companion touches her affectionately on the neck

She was spotted partying with male model David Gandy in December, and racing driver Alex Waters last November.
Following her split from Fuller, Berrabah insisted she wanted to stay single: 'I'm very happy at the moment. I feel like me again and I'm really enjoying being single.
'I am concentrating on my work, but I've also been going out a lot and spending time with my friends.
'I'm not looking for a fella. I'm a great believer that if it happens, it happens but I'm not going to start crawling around looking for someone.'
Something to smile about: A beaming Berrabah leaves the May Fair after her date
If Berrabah has found love again, it will be a good boost after a turbulent end of 2009.
She checked into a rehab centre in October citing 'severe nervous exhaustion' shortly after original Sugababe Keisha Buchanan was ousted from the group and replaced by Jade Ewen.

Berrabah's date came after she spent much of last week promoting the Sugababes' new album Sweet 7 in Poland.
This Friday, Berrabah is gearing up for a skydive to raise money for Cancer Research in memory of her father, who died of cancer in 2002.

Cheers: The couple shared a bottle of wine in the hotel bar
She said: 'It’s a charity that’s really close to my heart ever since my dad passed away, so I really want to earn as much money as possible.
'I’m really looking forward to it, but at the same time I’m a bit nervous and my stomach keeps going! I’ve never done anything like that before.
'Basically I’ve got no choice now, I have to jump out of that plane whether I like it or not, screaming, crying or laughing! It’s going to be amazing, and I’ll be so proud of myself afterwards.'
