Uh-oh. There’s been a new development in E-Trade’s $100 million legal battle with celebrity trainwreck Lindsay Lohan that could turn the tide of the case.
On Monday, the former Mean Girls star filed the massive lawsuit against the Wall St. firm, alleging a baby featured in one of their recent ads was modeled after her (Because apparently there’s only one Lindsay in the world…..) and the characteristics of the talking tot in the commercial were designed to poke fun at her well-deserved reputation as a spoiled fuck-up.
Here’s the doozy: A paper trail obtained by an Esquire reporter allowed to sit in on the the E-Trade Super Bowl ad in question shows that creators changed the name of the boyfriend-stealing baby from “Deborah” to “Lindsay” as they turned the innocent tot into a sleazy “milkaholic.”
Maybe she wasn’t crying over spilled milk after all…..
