    849 F.2d 460 (1988) Bette MIDLER, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. FORD MOTOR COMPANY, a Delaware Corporation, and Young & Rubicam Inc., a New York Corporation, Defendants-Appellees. No. 87-6168. United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit. Argued and Submitted February 4, 1988. Decided June 22, 1988. 461*461 Peter Laird, Los Angeles, Cal., for plaintiff-appellant. Robert M. Callagy, New York City, for defendants-appellees. Before HUG, TANG and NOONAN, Circuit Judges. NOONAN, Circuit Judge: This case centers on the protectibility of the voice of a celebrated chanteuse from commercial exploitation without her consent. Ford Motor Company and its advertising agency, Young & Rubicam, Inc., in 1985 advertised the Ford Lincoln Mercury with a series of nineteen 30 or 60 second television commercials in what the agency called "The Yuppie Campaign." The aim was to make an emotional connection with Yuppies, bringing back memories of when they were in college. Different popular songs of the seventies were sung on each commercial. The agency tried to get "the original people," that is, the singers who had popularized the songs, to sing them. Failing in that endeavor in ten cases the agency had the songs sung by "sound alikes." Bette Midler, the plaintiff and appellant here, was done by a sound alike. Midler is a nationally known actress and singer. She won a Grammy as early as 1973 as the Best New Artist of that year. Records made by her since then have gone Platinum and Gold. She was nominated in 1979 for an Academy award for Best Female Actress in The Rose, in which she portrayed a pop singer.
