Lady Gaga has won a lawsuit against the company behind the animated character, Lady Goo Goo.

The Moshi Monster became an internet sensation over the summer when a music video called The Moshi Dance was released on YouTube.

The character also sang a track called 'Peppy-razzi' – a spoof on Lady Gaga's 'Paparazzi'.

Plans were in place to release the song on iTunes, but a High Court judge ruled that Mind Candy – Moshi Monsters' British parent company – cannot play or offer the parody song for sale, reports The Guardian.

The injunction bans the company from"promoting, advertising, selling, distributing or otherwise making available to the public The Moshi Dance or any musical work or video that purports to be performed by a character by the name of Lady Goo Goo, or that otherwise uses the name Lady Goo Goo or any variant thereon".

However, Justice Vos ruled that Lady Go Go would still be able to appear – without the song – in the Moshi Monsters game.
