Lindsay Lohan to sue over Grand Theft Auto 5

4.6
Mean Girls and The Parent Trap actress Lindsay Lohan is planning to sue Rockstar Games, claiming the developer used her image without permission for Grand Theft Auto V.

That's according to a TMZ report, which claims Lohan's lawyers are in the process of drafting a lawsuit against Rockstar Games that demands "serious money."

No official lawsuit has been filed yet, so it is unclear which part or component of GTAV featured a likeness that Lohan claims is similar to her's.

TMZ points out that GTAV's box art features a woman holding a cellphone who somewhat resembles Lohan. The game also features a mission that has players taking home a Lohan-esque character to escape the paparazzi.

GTAV also features a mission at a hotel resembling Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood--a place where Lohan visits often and lived for a period of time.

If Lohan does indeed sue Rockstar over GTAV, her lawsuit would not be the first the game has faced legal action since its record-setting launch in September. Rapper Daz Dillinger accused Rockstar in October of using two of his songs in the game without permission, demanding that Rockstar give him more money for the songs or destroy all remaining unsold copies of GTAV.

Gamer-RIP Rockstar should sue her for trying to look like the girl in the poster. Let's not forget she's a red head with freckles. ;-D


Use your brain.
Even if you're not being serious that was a idiotic remark.

If that would make it to court, people would start designing animated posters of every celebrity in the world.

I find this so odd.

Its a picture of somebody (Hey it could be her or it couldnt) but yet shes a millionaire and still has to sure.

And for the the other guy, "destroy all remaining unsold copies of GTAV.", good luck.

SYK Lindsay Lohan is being an idiot, Rockstar have just made a load of money and she wants to sue over an animated image that she thinks looks like her. I have honestly lost all respect for this woman, needs to sort herself out.


I don't think you understand how the legal system works.
If she didn't have actual means to sue, she wouldn't make it this far in the legal process.
