(NY Post) Lindsay Lohan is suing the financial company E-Trade, insisting that a boyfriend-stealing, "milkaholic" baby in its latest commercial -- who happens to be named Lindsay -- was modeled after her. And she wants $100 million for her pain and suffering.
The actress filed a lawsuit yesterday in Nassau County Supreme Court over the commercial that debuted during the Super Bowl this year. The ad -- part of a series starring babies who play the stock market -- features a boy apologizing to his girlfriend via video chat for not calling her the night before.
(USA Today) Lohan's lawyer, Stephanie Ovadia, said the actress has the same single-name recognition as Oprah or Madonna, and wants an injunction to force the spot off the air.
Oprah. Bono. Madonna. LeBron. Cher. Lindsay?? HAHAHAHA!!! Single name recognition? Is she serious? Someone with a brain needs to sit Miss Lohan down and tell her that she’s not famous for being talented. She’s famous for being a world class fuck-up.
If you give a raggedy-looking homeless man a few bucks on the street, you can usually be pretty sure that he’s just going to use that money to buy drugs. That’s kind of what this situation is like. Give Lindsay Lohan $100 million, and you can be pretty sure that she’s just gonna use that money to party hard for a couple weeks, probably buy some coke… then use the rest of it to bail herself out of jail and pay for another stint in rehab.
I don’t see how she can possibly win this case, (after all, Lindsay is a pretty popular name), but if this commercial is in fact referring to Lohan, I think it’s being pretty kind by only calling her an alcoholic. Come on, Lindsay. Do you really think this 5-second clip of a milkaholic baby hurts your image? You mean the image of you as a spoiled, alcohol-abusing, drunk-driving, car-crashing, perpetual-rehabbing, cocaine-blowing skank?
Yea, you're right. Wouldn't want to touch that one.
