Lindsay Lohan sued us for attention, says Rockstar

4.4
GTA 5 does not include a parody of Lindsay Lohan, and the star is only suing Rockstar for the attention, according to Take Two’s lawyers.

GTA 5 contains a character called Lacey Jonas who bears a passing resemblance to Lohan, and who features in a series of missions that some have argued parody events in her life.

We’ll leave the truth of the matter up to your judgment, but Rockstar’s stance is that the character is completely fictitious. That hasn’t prevented Lohan from suing the publisher and parent Take Two, of course.

According to court papers, as reported by Big Story, Take Two’s lawyers have argued that Lohan’s suit has no merit, and was “filed for publicity purposes” – to get attention, in other words.

Take Two says the character in question only resembles Lohan in being a young, blond woman, and has moved to dismiss, asking for reparations to cover its legal costs.

The video you have requested should be available shortly.

Gulp Why would she even attempt to


Definitely for attention. Surely she has no other reason to sue someone.

That's pathetic! Having to sue someone for attention. Pft!

MortarPosted:

The actress is washed up, nobody really cares about her now and so she feels she has to do something so meaningless as this, simply to prove her existence. If it were me, I wouldn't give a second thought about the design, hell there are billions of people on the planet, and there is bound to be at least one person who looks similar to you, so who's say it isn't based off someone else. It is pretty petty of her.

That is possibly the dumbest thing ever. She has to sue someone for attention.

I really don't understand why she even did this... Really stupid of her.

GossipPosted:

I think she sued them to become relevant again.

ZipsPosted:

This could be the most ridiculous thing i have heard all year.

AchePosted:

Is she stupid? Like she would win a lawsuit over rockstar, better yet sue them for something as silly as this...

Go away Lohan, no one likes you anymore.

Ethics she is obviously doing this for publicity! I hate the greed of celebrities.


Maybe it is just me but im sure any celebs that have died down will look for publicity.


I agree with you, most of them just really want the attention and quite a few of the don't even deserve anything at all.

Dezz i feel like rockstar should make a parody out of her now.


If this was to happen then there would be some serious charges. But this happens to be the most stupid thing I ever heard.
Nice try on trying to gain publicty.
