Justin Bieber vs. Joustin Beaver
Pop singing sensation Justin Bieber is threatening legal action against game developers for allegedly using his image for a mobile application aptly (or ironically?) called, Joustin Beaver.
The singers lawyers have already sent a cease and desist letter to the company, RC3, asking them to take the app down and to hand over their accounting and revenue figures.
Joustin Beaver is a $0.99 game on sale on iTunes.
In the game, the player has to get a beaver, which bears a close resemblance to the pop singer, to sign Otter-graphs, while defending him from Phot-hogs floating downstream.
For its defense, RC3 did not deny the allegation, but said that the cartoon game is a parody of Justin Bieber and therefore protected by the US First Amendment.
On the other hand, Justin believes that he has become a target for people, but said he does his best not to let it get to him.
He said: Now that Im on top, everyone wants to bring me down. Everyones trying to tug at me and take my spot.
