Lindsay Lohan Sues Rockstar Games
As many of you know, this is a blog mostly centered around what's currently happening in the gaming community or my opinions that nobody could really care to see. Though, today, I'm gonna talk about a matter that just seems really stupid to me.
Everyone knows about the record-breaking success of Grand Theft Auto V. However, there was one mission in particular that led me to today's Geekasm. In a certain Strangers and Freaks mission for Franklin, you're suppose to took a snapshot of a red-headed celebrity buying drugs from behind a store. Actress Lindsay Lohan saw this character in the mission and she currently thinks that it's HER in that situation. Because of this, she is suing Rockstar because she thinks that they didn't get her permission to do this.
From the get-go, I think this was a huge mistake made by Ms.Lohan. Firstly, if Rockstar was using her in the game, they WOULD get her permission first. Whenever Rockstar uses something in their games that isn't under their licence, they always pay the copyright laws. Secondly, the actress in the mission didn't even look like Lindsay Lohan. The actress shown in the game had shorter hair than Lohan's. In fact, the person in that mission is actually a real actress that the character was modeled after. And, like I said, Rockstar got the actress's permission before using it.
In a nutshell, this whole thing seems entirely unnecessary to me. I should know by now that if Rockstar used Lohan in their game, they would've asked her. Besides, even if they did use her, it's not like Lindsay has a chance. I mean, it's an actress and perhaps a few others against an ENTIRE CORPORATION.
Who do you think would win?
