The NYC street performer known as “The Naked Cowboy” is suing Mars, Inc. for millions of dollars because an M&M candy on a Times Square billboard sports the same look he does – cowboy hat, cowboy boots and white briefs.
For nearly a decade, Robert Burck has been a fixture in Times Square, where he strums a guitar on a street corner while dressed in his skimpy signature costume.
In a lawsuit filed this week in Manhattan federal court, Burck said that two oversized Times Square billboards that promote M&Ms used his look without compensating him.
The billboards depict a blue M&M with a white guitar overlooking views of New York City, including the Statue of Liberty. He is suing the candy maker and the ad agency that created the ad, for trademark infringement.
Burck had trademarked his signature look and has made several television and movie appearances in costume, including American Idol.

Tyra Banks Threatens Lawsuit Against Cancer Survivor
February 11, 2008 | Filed by Boner | Leave a Comment
Tyra “Kiss My Fat Ass” Banks is threatening to sue a cancer patient who was invited on the show.
Thirty-nine year old Jodi Hughes was ecstatic when she discovered that her children, seventeen year old Jordan and ten year old Nick, had secretly submitted her name for a “Holiday Girl Party!” makeover on an episode of the Tyra Banks Show after she’d been diagnosed with Stage Four cervical cancer and lupus. Jodi has been left begging for an apology after what she claims was humiliation and mistreatment at the hands of Tyra.
The details:
- The two boys, one of them legally blind, were left sitting on a curb outside the studio lot for hours with no food, no phone, and no money while their mother was getting her makeover.
- The makeover was simply a new dress and a hair weave. The hair weave turned into a disaster and the mother had to have it surgically removed in the emergency room because her scalp became infected.
- The Tyra Banks Show threatened litigation because the cancer survivor violated a gag-order that prevents her from discussing the show for a year.
