The rockstar Supernova that blew up

Blabbermouth reports that tonight's Rockstar: Supernova season finale has a dark cloud hanging over its bright name:
Last month, the original SUPERNOVA — an Orange County, California, punk trio — filed for a preliminary injunction in San Diego's U.S. District Court against CBS Broadcasting, Mark Burnett Productions and Lee, Newsted and Clarke, who are starring in the second season of the reality show. The injunction sought to halt the television-contrived act from performing or recording under the name "SUPERNOVA" if the band fails to change or add any words to the moniker.
Well guess what? The judge ruled in favor of the original Supernova, so for now the show can't use the name for performing, recording...etc. CONTACT: Leave me a Houston or Texas media news tip | COMMENT: Click to leave your thoughts on this post here
