Lindsay Lohan is suing internet stock giant eTrade Financial for a cool $100,000,000. That’s a lot of zeros. But does she have a case? On a personal, yet still unbiased opinion I think she DOES contrary to popular belief. The uproar is about a recent eTrade commercial featuring those talking babies that I thought were funny in the beginning but not anymore. The woman behind the voice states “…and that milkaholic Lindsay wasn’t over?” In baby terms a “Milkaholic” would be that of an “Alcoholic” to adults. It doesn’t take a genius to figure out who they’re referring too. A lot of people are saying she’s a washed up actress, no one likes her yadda-yadda-yadda, but that is irrelevant to this particular issue.
Case in point. If you’re in coversation with somebody and you mention “Paris, Audrina, Miley and yes, Lindsay”, the other person knows who you’re talking about. Although they aren’t Michael Jackson status, they still are part of the first name only club. Case in point part dos. It took me all of about .30 seconds to prove this to myself as well. Google-ing the word “Lindsay” pulls up over 51 MILLION results with you know who as the top spot.
So point proven that the media cannot say it wasn’t about her. Owned. Moving to the money situation. Hell if it was me too I’d want $100M! But lets be serious even she knows she won’t get that. What people fail to realize is that celebs have a team of lawyers working for them and that’s the strategy you’re supposed to aim high then work your way down. I honesty feel she has a valid case with valid points and even if she gets $10k, a win is a win.
