50 Cent is going to war with Remy Martin, over claims the rap star stole the bottle design for his liquor brand from the French company!

The French distillery sued 50 Cent, claiming the rap star stole their Centaur de Diamants bottle shape and used the trademarked design for Branson. Remy Martin believes 50 Cents Branson design will confuse consumers in the marketplace. 50 Cent fired back in a legal reply and claimed Branson was scared of the competition and that Remy Martin was attempting to destroy his brand. The rap star attempted to dismiss the lawsuit, claiming his design was taken from canteens used by soldiers during the Civil war in the 1860s. The rappers lawyer claimed Remy Martin was attempting to launch a multi-front legal battle to force an exorbitant settlement out of Sire Spirits. However, 50 Cent may have to take the dispute to trial after his high-powered legal team attempted to have the lawsuit thrown out of court was defeated this week. A pretrial conference is slated for April 29th, 2022. Meanwhile, 50 Cent continues to make moves with Branson. Last week, it was announced that Sire Spirits launched a new partnership with the Houston Rockets. 50s company signed a multi-year deal for Branson and his champagne brand Le Chemin du Roi.
