JORDAN RHODES, Applicant. NOTICE OF OPPOSITION IMG Universe, LLC (“Opposer”) is a limited liability company organized under the laws of Delaware with a principal place of business at 11 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10010. Opposer believes it will be damaged by the registration of the mark MISS PETITE USA (the “Disputed Mark”) by Applicant Jordan Rhodes (“Applicant”) for “Entertainment in the nature of beauty pageants and contests for women 5’5” or less” in Class 41 (“Applicant’s Services”) covered by the above-identified application (the “Application”) and, having been granted an extension of time to oppose up to and including October 21, 2020, hereby opposes the same. The grounds for opposition are as follows: 1. Since at least as early as 1952, Opposer and its predecessors-in-interest have used the mark MISS USA, and since at least as early as 1979 it has used the mark MISS TEEN USA, both in connection with its world-famous beauty pageants and related goods and services (collectively, “Opposer’s Goods and Services”).

  • Among the Beautiful People
    Page 1 of 3 Among the beautiful people November 8 2003 12:00AM The politics may be deadly but in Venezuela gorgeousness is a patriotic duty. Nicholas Griffin meets the ‘Misses’ and the men who remake them Last month I travelled to Caracas, to act as a judge in the Miss Venezuela competition. With 80 per cent of the population watching the pageant on television, Miss Venezuela commands a much greater audience share than any FA Cup Final. In international beauty competition, the country is dominant, having won four Miss Universes, five Miss Worlds and three Miss International titles in the past 24 years. It is said that Venezuela has two great exports: oil and beauty. The former accounts for more than 90 per cent of GDP, but despite this source of wealth half the populace lives in poverty, a legacy of poor government spanning generations. Even with the oil millions at its disposal, the current Chavez administration persists in blaming its failings on private enterprise and imperialism as it tries to force an unwilling nation towards Cuban-style communism. Beauty, on the other hand, is much more accessible to the average Venezuelan. Whether you travel on the subway or walk the finest shopping streets, you will find men and women who care deeply about how they look. It is estimated that 20 per cent of average household income is spent on beauty products and enhancements. With such interest, it is little wonder that winning the Miss Venezuela title is considered a genuine achievement. As a result, competitors in the pageant come from all walks of life, although the 20 entrants who make the final cut are invariably university students.
