(PCM) We have to wonder what took her so long, oh right…legal trouble of her own! It seems that actress Lindsay Lohan is suing the makers of “Grand Theft Auto V” for using her likeness for a character in their hit video game.
In the lawsuit, Lohan accuses Take-Two Interactive Software Inc and its’ subsidiaries Rockstar Games and Rockstar North, of basing the game character “Lacey Jones” off of to quote the lawsuit filed “her image, likeness, clothing, outfits, plaintiff’s clothing line products, ensemble in the form of hats, hair style, sunglasses,[and] jean shorts worn by plaintiff that were for sale to the public at least two years before the defendant’s release of the GTA V game”
The lawsuit also questions the games use of the Hotel Chateau, which is similar to that of the Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood where Lohan lived and frequented for quite some time. The game character of “Lacey Jones” is an actress who is often times chased down by the paparazzi, other aspect that is eerily similar to that of Lohan’s own personal life.
There has been no comment from Take-Two Interactive in regards to the lawsuit. Do you think it has merit?
