OpenLife reports that the BLORD banner featuring the face of popular entertainer VeryDarkMan has been taken down, days after BLORD was arrested and remanded in court for impersonation.
VeryDarkMan earlier noted that, the unauthorized use of VeryDarkMan’s image on the banner was one of the charges listed against BLORD.
Sources indicate that the removal of the banner was carried out quietly, but its timing aligns closely with BLORD’s arrest.
The banner had drawn public attention online due to the prominent use of VeryDarkMan’s likeness without his consent.
VeryDarkMan reportedly initiated legal action to protect his image and reputation. Social media users quickly reacted to the banner’s removal, with many expressing relief and others curious about the outcome of the ongoing court case.
BLORD management has not released an official statement regarding the arrest or the banner removal. The incident has sparked discussions on image rights and impersonation, highlighting how legal action can be used to address misuse of personal likenesses in public promotions and displays.
Legal experts note that unauthorized use of a person’s image, particularly in commercial or public displays, can lead to serious consequences, reinforcing the importance of consent and intellectual property rights in the entertainment industry.
The case remains under investigation, and updates are expected as the court proceedings continue.
