However, it emerged over the weekend that the application to register her name for "motivational speaking services" has been turned down.

According to official records the bid, filed by her lawyer, was rejected on the grounds that she failed to personally sign the application.

The records also show that two examples she had given supporting her application were 'not acceptable'.

Reports say that her daughter Bristol had also applied for the trademark to protect her brand image but her request too was rejected.
