Lindsay Lohan Files Suit Against E-Trade

Actress Lindsay Lohan has filed a huge lawsuit ($100 million) against E-Trade for a commercial aired by the company, calling it defamatory.  The advertisement shows a baby named Lindsay, who is described as a “milkaholic”, which, according to Lohan, is a reference to her hard-partying ways, People magazine reported.

E-Trade has fired back against the lawsuit, denying that Lohan is the target of a parody. They say the spot was meant to be “witty and memorable”. The company said in a statement that the claims are “without merit and we intend to defend ourselves vigorously”.
