It's a common mistake to make, but using a stage name doesn't make it 'yours'. Copyright law is a little more involved than this.
I notice that no-one is considering the position of the American Scarlet Fever (who has been performing burlesque since 2005). See here for her site: About Me

After a great deal of gossip & chinese whispers on Facebook about a month ago, this has now been dealt with privately by the people directly involved.
As far as I know, Scarlet (Pallister) Fever isn't carrying out any legal action. Scarlet (Cardiff) Fever did not perform at Christmas & hasn't performed for just over 6 months. She is not actively looking for burlesque work & promoting herself with the name. I don't know if she will perform in future.
If anyone has any queries about this matter, please contact the two people directly and please don't start discussing it all over again on here.
Back to the funny stuff!
