Mariah Carey is trying to stop a porn star from having a similar name.

Singer Mariah Carey has just filed against porn star Mary Carey due to the fact that they have similar names. Mariah believes that the fans could get confused between the two women since the names are so alike.  
  
Mary, along with her attorney, David Beitchman, think the whole situation is ridiculous. Mary has apparently stated, "It's kind of funny because I'm a porn star and I've been being myself for a long time. I think she's being silly."  
  
Beitchman followed that statement with; "My first thought was, does Mariah Carey realize what her lawyer is comparing her to and are they seriously concerned? Do they seriously think the fans are going to be confused?"  
  
And the answer to that question is, yes. Mariah does believe that, and apparently will go through great lengths to keep that from happening.  
  
Not only has Mary starred in such films as *Double Air Bags 11* and *Boobsville Sorority Girls*, she also ran up against Arnold Schwarzenegger for California governor.  
  
One of Mariah's attorneys, Robert Becker, sent a threatening note to Mary and her attorney to discard her trademark name that she just signed earlier this year; he also asked Mary to use her name only in her porn films.
