Take-Two and Rockstar Say Linsday Lohan Sued Them To Get Publicity

In court papers made public yesterday, the makers of Grand Theft Auto V called a suit by actress Lindsay Lohan frivolous and asked that it be dismissed.

The suit claims Lohan’s suit was “filed for publicity purposes.” 

Lohan sued Take-Two Interactive and Rockstar Games claiming that a character in Grand Theft Auto V, Lacey Jonas, is based on her likeness.

The companies say the only similarity is that both characters are young blond women which is, c’mon, not true. Both are Hollywood starlets bedeviled by paparazzi and there are other similarities that make it seem like the character might be a parody of Lohan, or at least of actresses like Lohan in general.
