ETRADE Baby is not Lindsay Lohan

So I read in the news today that Lindsay Lohan is sueing the folks at Etrade for $100 million because they have apparently used a recognizable likeness of her for a commercial.

The funny thing is that she thinks the line “that milkaholic Lindsay” could possibly conjure up the image of her in someone’s mind.

I hate to be the one that has to point this out, but there is no way that Lindsay Lohan is a one word name like Sting, Madonna, or Oprah.

Nobody, anywhere, hears someone say “You wouldn’t believe what Lindsay did!” and immediately thinks about Lindsay Lohan. In fact, I think Lindsays everywhere should be offended by this ridiculous lawsuit.

Sure, maybe Lindsay isn’t the most common name in the world, but I’m willing to bet that the first thing 90% of people that don’t know a Lindsay personally would think when faced with the above exclamation would be the question “Lindsay who?”
