Lindsay Lohan needs to get a life. The 23 year never failed to make a headline once in a while just to save her falling career. Lohan has sued the stock trading company, E-Trade, for $100 million, that’s $50 million in exemplary damages and another $50 million in compensatory damages. She claimed that the company misappropriated her name and her life on the ad that aired during the Super Bowl.
The ad featured CGI babies who are chatting and the boy explained why he missed their date the night before. The boy says he was busy working on his portfolio. The suspicious girl wonders, “And that milkaholic Lindsay wasn’t over?” “Lindsay?” the boy says. Then another girl baby pops into the scene, “Milk-a-what?” she asks.
Lohan’s lawyer, Stephanie Ovadia, claims that E-Trade used Lohan’s “likeness, name, characterization and personality” and violated her privacy under New York state civil-rights law. The lawyer also said “many celebrities are known by one name only, and E*Trade is using that knowledge to profit,” she said in her statement to the New York Post.”They’re using her name as a parody of her life. Why didn’t they use the name Susan? This is a subliminal message. Everybody’s talking about it and saying it’s Lindsay Lohan.”
Lohan was known for her addiction to drugs and alcohol. She was involved in a car accidents and was rehabbed a couple of times already.
The spokesperson for Grey Group, which produced the E-Trade’s “milkaholic” commercial, said that they “just used a popular baby name that happened to be the name of someone on the account team.”
Maybe she needed the money to pay her bills? Watch the video clip below and see if Lindsay Lohan pops into your mind.
