In summary, Lindsay Lohan's lawyer is seeking $100 million in damages from E-Trade for using the name Lindsay in one of their advertisements. The lawyer argues that Lohan has the same single-name recognition as Oprah or Madonna. Some see this as a desperate attempt to stay relevant in the media. However, it is likely that E-Trade will prevail in this lawsuit, proving that Lohan's name is not worth as much as she believes it to be.

Don't EVEN get upset about it. She's just trying to keep her name in the news. "Bad publicity is better than no publicity."

She'll win the case, but she still won't be happy with the outcome: she'll find that Etrade was right and her name isn't worth as much as she thinks it is!

She'll win the case
How? This lawsuit seems as frivolous as it could possibly be. Susan Sarandon should sue them for suggesting her name. She could say "Why did you suggest Susan as an alternative and not Leroy?" Then I'll have to get involved and complete madness will ensue.
