Dina Lohan on E-Trade “milkaholic” lawsuit: “They’re mocking a child”

wenn2752355

Yesterday, we heard how Lindsay Lohan is suing E-Trade because they running a commercial in which a talking baby named Lindsay is referred to as a “milkaholic”. Lindsay is suing for $100 million. Because that’s how much this enormous, horrible, terrible “milkaholic” insult is worth to her. And because she’s only known by one name, like Madonna. And Lindsay has practically trademarked that name, right? Yeah.

Anyway, I know some of you want the Lindsay stories to end, but this sh-t just gets even more delusional/funnier. This time the NY Post got an interview with Dina about this lawsuit, and I can’t even describe the hilarity that ensued. Like when Dina says that E-Trade are “little babies” and that they’re “mocking another child who’s just trying to survive Hollywood, basically.” Oh, that “basically” is so important, isn’t it? It’s like Dina saying, “This is worse than the Holocaust… in essence.”

Lindsay Lohan is no “milkaholic,” but she does cry like a baby. The “Mean Girls” star was left sobbing uncontrollably when she saw an E-Trade ad on Super Bowl Sunday about a ditsy, boyfriend-stealing infant named Lindsay she believed was created in her likeness, her irate mom told The Post yesterday.

“She said, ‘Mommy, help me. This is wrong. How can they do this?’ ” Dina Lohan said of a tearful phone call with her 23-year-old daughter after the big game. La Lohan had just set her peepers on an ad for E-trade that features a pair of babies video chatting about a boyfriend-stealing tyke — and became “extremely upset” because she believed the spot was taking a jab at her hard-partying ways.

“They’re little babies doing this, mocking another child who’s just trying to survive Hollywood, basically,” Dina Lohan said.

In the ad for the financial-services company, a baby girl is upset with her boyfriend for not calling the previous night. After the boy apologizes, saying he was diversifying his portfolio, the girl asks suspiciously: “And that milkaholic Lindsay wasn’t over?”

“Lindsay?” the boy asks sheepishly before another baby girl pokes her head into the frame and asks, “Milk-a-what?”

Lohan filed a lawsuit in Nassau County on Monday seeking an eye-popping $100 million in damages for her pain and suffering.

“I’m just basically glad I took a stand. I’m not going to let them do this to us anymore,” Dina Lohan said of the “horrible” and “mean” ad.

She said that the ad was clearly aimed at her daughter because unlike other stars, her daughter’s first name is synonymous with the “Herbie Fully Loaded” actress.

“Everyone knows Lindsay, like Cher or Madonna,” Dina Lohan said. But Grey Group, which produced the ad, insists that — unlike Oprah or Cher — Lindsay is a popular baby name. In fact, company spokesman Chris Brown said that someone working on the spot shared the name as well.

Lindsay’s lawyer, Stephanie Ovadia, has requested an injunction to have the ad yanked. E-Trade declined to comment until it could thoroughly examine the court papers.

[From The New York Post]

Jesus, Dina is really the funny one of this family, isn’t she? I wonder if she quoted Lindsay accurately: “Mommy, help me. This is wrong. How can they do this?” ABOUT A COMMERCIAL. Featuring a talking baby. Named Lindsay. For the love of God.

By the way, to any lawyers who may be commenting on this story… won’t Lindsay’s lawyers have to prove not only that “Lindsay” in synonymous with “The Blohan That We Know and Love”, but that “milkaholic” is actually an insult? Worthy of damages?

    HAHAHAHAHAHAH

    Apparently being delusional is a genetic trait. Can you get any crazier than these two?

    If Dina Lohan thinks that Lilo is just a ‘poor child just trying to survive Hollywood” isn’t that HER fault? Maybe she should have thought of the perils of fame before shoving her children into the limelight.

    The good part of this whole so-sad-it’s-laughable situation is it’s made me feel sorry for Lindsay Lohan. How can she NOT be screwed up with parents like hers?

  2. Carrie says:

    Speaking as an attorney, this lawsuit is completely without merit and will most likely get tossed.

    As for this story, Dina is so delusional it hurts. Lindsay is 23 years old: she’s not a child, not anymore. That’s been Dina’s line for years, Lindsay isn’t out of control, isn’t an addict, doesn’t have a problem, she’s just a kid, leave her alone.

    She’s not a kid. She’s not even the same age as a college student (Lindsay’s common excuse for her partying). She’s now officially the age at which one is considered an adult.

  3. TaylorB says:

    “The “Mean Girls” star was left sobbing uncontrollably… ”

    Probably because she was hammered at the time.

  4. Trillion says:

    Reminds me of Donald Trump trying to sue a game company for calling their game Trump, a verb.

  5. bellaluna says:

    OMG, the hilarity with this family just never ends! How has a family like this survived this long? You’d think Darwinism would have come into play and helped eliminate at least a few of them, wouldn’t you? If I was Lindsay, I’d be more insulted by the “Milk-a-what?” comment, but then, I have more than 3 operable brain cells.

    Anyway, if the baby was a too-thin red-head or badly-dyed blonde, covered in freckles and orange from her fake tan, with silicone-injected lips, wearing coke-pants (not hers, of course) and the baby boy in question was named “Aaron” (as in Carter), then maybe, MAYBE she’d have a drug-needle to stand on. I hope they continue airing the commercial, and I hope the judge laughs her narrow butt out of court!

  6. sarah says:

    Of all the things she’s been called, she’s upset about maybe, but not likely being called a milkaholic? Delusional bitch.

  7. meme says:

    child, my ass. she’s a grownup crackho and when i hear the name lindsay i don’t think of her. Hohan or Blohan or Lilo, yes. Lindsay? No. Fuck this whole family. Go find a job.

  8. Poopie says:

    Dina and Lindsey : STFU! we are SICK SICK SICK of your entire fam. Go AWAY. FAR FAR AWAY. Jeez..

  9. Sumodo1 says:

    And NOW may we have our Lohan ban?

  10. Praise St. Angie! says:

    Trillion, or like Spike Lee trying to sue Spike TV.

    delusions of grandeur, indeed.

    To TaylorB…and how frickin’ LONG AGO was Mean Girls? She doesn’t have a film worth mentioning since then, I guess.

  11. snapdragon says:

    anybody know why dina is dressed up like inspector clouseau?

  12. ,,,, says:

    @ snapdragon – She’s trying to give Detective LaToya (Thanks Michael K!) a run for her money…

    She’s also competing with Joe Jackson for worst parent too.

  13. TaylorB says:

    Praise,

    Had to be going on 10 years ago. But to be fair ‘I Know Who Killed Me’ was a cinematic masterpiece… 😉

  14. dee says:

    oh dear gawd. I think the only thing synonymous with the Lohans is the word PATHETIC. This family is sick. I really, really hope E-trades counter sues for their time and the ridiculousness of this.
    I know LL is the farthest thing from my mind when I hear the name Lindsay. I personally know 3 other Lindsay’s, I wonder if they should be included in this too.

  15. Susette says:

    I really, really hope e-Trade fights doesnt’ just offer a settlement to make them go away. I would love to read the comments a judge would make in throwing out this crap.

  16. lucy2 says:

    OMG this is hilarious. They are delusional.

    If you are THAT sensitive about your addictions that you see offense everywhere and where there is none, then may it’s time to seek serious help. I love how rather than doing that, her mother’s instinct is to sue. Gross.

  17. Alecto says:

    since when is 23 still considered a child? it’s dina’s mentality that has enabled lilo to become the 23 year old “child” that she is today. lilo is so self important that it looks like she’s the only one that thought the commercial was about her. nobody else got it cuase we don’t think of her until she does her cracked out antics.

  18. Hautie says:

    So does this mean that Dina is willing to admit that Lindsay is a alcoholic? A burnt up looking one at that.

    It is amazing that the entire family is still living off the fame of Lindsay’s from 7 years ago.

  19. nAynAy says:

    NOW!!, she’s acting like the considered mom, NOW!!

  20. Erin says:

    WOW…what a difference 4 years makes. Lindsay still looks so lovely and human in that picture with Orange Oprah.

  21. ien says:

    this is out of f-cking control.
    how does one become SO delusional.
    lindsay lohan is NOT a one name star like Cher, Madonna, or Oprah. the mere mention of her name in a sentence with theirs is pure insanity.
    lindsay lohan does NOT have a trademark on the name “lindsay”
    and surely she doesn’t think that “milkaholic” is a term worthy of 100M when there are tonnnnsss of other, actual offensive things people (including myself) have called her.

    i don’t mean to offend people who actually have mental problems, or make light of their problem, but i genuinely think that this has gone past drugs with lindsay, i think she has a serious mental issue. something is f-cking wrong with her.

    WHY is this girl still famous? WHY does she get invited places? WHY do people enable her? i don’t mean to rant but i genuinely can not stand this woman (who is NOT a “girl” anymore), this 23 year old f-cking adult, who at this point has shit away her career, burned all of her bridges in the industry, and made a joke of herself and her life. How is it fair that this drug addicted liar is famous when there are tons of TALENTED actors who would KILL for the fame she has and make the most of it instead of snorting away all of the chances placed at their feet.

    sorry for the rant.

  22. Green Is Good says:

    I hope the Judge throw the filed papers right in their coke-snorting faces. Literally. Wind up, pitch, SLAM!

  23. xxodettexx says:

    before i can read this article and subsequent [and i am sure, hysterical] comments, i just have to comment on Dina’s delusion [@Dina: “They’re mocking a child”]:

    OH PLEASE JUST FOR ONCE STFU!

    /rant over

  24. bellaluna says:

    @ nAynAy – Only because there may be money involved. If there was no (potential) money involved, Dina never would have said a word.

  25. Lem says:

    Meme FTW: If the baby was Blohan or Hohan she would have a case.

    As it stands, why would she even think this was about her? THAT speaks volumes.

  26. YT says:

    Silly woman. The girl baby Lindsay is with a boy baby, not another girl baby.

    Lindsay partied her way through her college years without getting an education. She is still partying and without a decent job because she is unemployable. She is getting a bit old to need the constant excuses from her mother.

  27. Snarf says:

    hate to point this out, (no like really HATE) but they may have a point there. You say the name Lindsay on a celeb and entertainment gossip blog and EVERYBODY knows who you mean.

  28. Lem says:

    snarf it wasn’t on a celeb blog. It’s a commercial. for stock trade. Who thinks Blohan & stocks? Not me!

  29. Jeane says:

    @ Snarf

    Yes, on a celeb and entertainment gossip blog the name Lindsay featured in a story about addicts/drugs/losers will make one think of Lohan.
    But in the context of the commercial, not really. Unless you consider that maybe anything-oholic in combination with the name Lindsay will remind of LiLo. I’d like to see her plead that case to the judge!

  30. Renee says:

    Last I checked, based on the date of birth on Lindsay’s birth certificate she is an adult. This whole this is rediculous!

  31. YT says:

    Forgot to mention that perhaps the e-trade world is not aware of Lindsay Lohan. Some people have better thing to do than keep up with celebrity train wrecks.

  32. kelbear says:

    Dina is so ugly in that top picture.

  33. Lem says:

    @YT: Some people have better thing to do than keep up with celebrity train wrecks.

    WHO? WHAT? NAH! lol

  34. Attagirl says:

    You know I actually feel sorry for Lindsay, having had to endure the kind of upbringing she’s had. That’s what made her so screwed up. It’s Dina and Michael Lohan who should be brought before a court of law and sued for their culpability in deliberately ruining what used to be a wonderful and talented child, but who is now a pathetic, incredibly f*cked up adult on so many levels. They must own up to their own greedy and whoreish behaviour.

  35. Chana says:

    snarf: true. But in life, if one of your friends came up to you and said “OMG, did you see what Lindsay did last night?” Would you think Lindsay Lohan?

    I wouldn’t, I’d be wondering who Lindsay was and if I knew her.

    Compare that to “OMG did you see what Cher did last night/Madonna did/Rihanna/Beyonce/Oprah?”

    This woman is completely delusional. NO ONE thinks of Lindsay Lohan as just “Lindsay”. She’s never branded herself that way and no one talks about her that way in the media.

  36. ElizabethM says:

    Well, personally, when I hear “Lindsay” I think of Lindsay Wagner and The Bionic Woman. But I’m old school that way…. 🙂

  37. Ron says:

    23 is a child? mmmmm hmmmmm. My mother had 2 kids by age 23. I now see mental deficiencies are a family trait Dina.

    This is totally stressing me out Mom I am not an alcoholic!! Does anyone have any coke?

    Desperate cry for attention. period.

  38. Victoria says:

    I think that Lindsey would have more of a case if the commercial said “LiLo” or “Blohan” or even Lindsey Lohan but not “Lindsey”.

  39. TaylorB says:

    ElizabethM,

    I LOVED (and still love) the Bionic Woman. I have been trying to order that series on Netflix for years, but alas it isn’t out yet neither is the Six Million Dollar Man… but I suspect you can order all the seasons of Baywatch.

  40. Butch says:

    Bullshit. E-trade new exactly what they were doing using dialogue like ‘milkaholic” inferring addiction. Um…e-trade may be using babies, but all their commercials have adult themes.

    It’s about selling a stock trade service to the young, hip, edgy, blog reading, celeb site lurking crowd. You think some of those new money traders haven’t partied with the likes of Lohan (or even Linds herself)?

    The real pudding is if she can build a case. And it’ll take much chashish to win.

  41. Schnauzers!!!! says:

    I don’t think Lohan has a prayer of winning this lawsuit.

  42. bubbs says:

    Lindsay has not been “a child” as Dina calls her in a long time. Also there is no youth left in her face she always looks beat and haggard. They are both delusional. She is so desperate to make a buck to keep up her “lifestyle”. What a joke she has become!

  43. GatsbyGal says:

    I love how she’s giving a crap about her daughter’s well-being NOW, when there’s the possibility of getting her grubby hands on some of that cool 100mil.

  44. vale says:

    I totally agree with Butch and Snarf, and think that E-Trade knew exactly what they were doing. Unfortunately for her, she has no proof.

  45. Lem says:

    NEW RULE:
    Mills Lane & Judge Judy to hear all celeb cases

  46. Kat says:

    You know Lindsay was just waiting around for her moment to pounce on something like this…something that to most sane people is a non-event, something she could turn into the big bad world against her poor fragile self…and as an added bonus keep her name in the headlines. I’m sure the thought of $100M makes her positively glow inside.

    I’m going to wager she doesn’t receive even close to $1M, let alone $100M. They’ll yank the ad and she’ll receive an apology, nothing more.

  47. Constance says:

    Can anyone think of better candidates for discovering that spontaneous combustion is genetic? plz godz i can haz nao?

  48. irishserra says:

    I am absolutely no fan of the Lohans, but I’m looking at the picture dated 2/23/2010 and thinking that Lindsay looks pretty damned decent for once. Her skin looks better than it has been.

  49. ann says:

    MONEY, MONEY, MONEY, MONEY, MONEY, MONEY. This whole entire family is completely disturbed. I think they are too far gone for any kind of help. They are like balloons full of air. Somebody just needs to pop them. All this because they don’t want to——
    work for a living. They are like parasites looking for a host to live off of.

  50. archiepelago says:

    “Another child who is just trying to survive hollywood”.

    Is she f*cking kidding? Corey Haim is currently in a body bag because for years he has been a troubled, addicted soul and he was out of the spotlight. He admitted he was an addict and he admitted that he would likely always relapse. One of the stories written about him said he often wandered around his apartment complex ‘looking for a companion, looking for a friend’. This is one of the saddest things I have read recently. How does any human being get to point in their life where they are so used up that they have nothing left? It’s so saddening. Just like Heath and Brittany – such a waste of a young life.

    Anyway, I digress. Dina Lohan’s daughter is only trying to ‘survive Hollywood’ because her parental unit is more immature than she is. Parents who capitalize on their children and then blame everyone else for the pressures their kids feel make me sick. Lindsay could choose (or at least be guided) to be out of the spotlight and get well but because these attention grabs are all she has left from a ruined career, it’s likely she will continue to spiral and Dina and Michael will be there to pick the carcass like they always have.

    This current Lohan drama is so f*cking tacky in light of another tragic Hollywood death.

  51. Laurie says:

    I highly doubt Lindsay said “mommy, help me”. And I guess no one else on earth can ever have the name Lindsay and use it in public? At least Lohan is admitting she is an “aholic” of some sort!

  52. JustplainJoe says:

    Who is this person? She thinks every time anyone uses the given name “Lindsay” they’re talking about her? And her Mom thinks so too? You know that’s classic schizophrenia, which is often inherited- perhaps a sanitarium would be a better choice than a courtroom…

  53. DoMaJoReMc says:

    Try that they may…..

    YOU. CAN’T. FIX. STUPID!

  54. gen says:

    Lindsay is no longer a child. And mommy? Really? How about just mom at this point in your life. And a million bucks?! Again, how about 100,000, seems more reasonable. I gotta say though, when u hear Lindsay, she’s the first one that comes to mind. That will probably be easy to prove. Also, the commercial was stupid. Milk-aholic? That’s just dumb.

  55. bondbabe says:

    Okay Dina, if Lindsay is still a “child,” then why are you not being a mother to her? Why have you allowed your “child” to go and live and be on her own? Shouldn’t this “child” be under your delusional supervision so no one can do her harm? So she can’t do any harm to herself? Good Lord woman!! Ohhhh, I guess I forgot that your definition of being a mother is being a greedy lunatic living off your “child.” Reap what you sow bitch, and now you want to whine about it and blame others. Have a nice big cup of STFU and go away.

  56. Bonnie says:

    I read somewhere I bit back — maybe when her father was releasing those tapes — that she DOES call Dina “Mommy” still. That alone tells of really jacked up relationship. This whole family needs to shove a sock in it. I also read that Ali is not even in school! How can this happen?

  57. ThunderC*nt says:

    No, I agree with Lohan. I thought of Lindsay right away, just like the ad agency who wrote this up wanted you to. They know it. Why not Courtney or Ashley or even Whitney?

  58. Mc says:

    @Meme – Do you not notice that you are the only poster who spells out the whole “F” word? Give it a rest please!

  59. rheba says:

    This is hilarious…the first Lindsay I thought of was Lindsay Vonn.

  60. Kim says:

    From the mouth of one of the worst role models, as far as a mother on the planet.

  61. nanster says:

    Lindsay is desperately trying to think of any way to stay relevant and in the news, so I guess this is it. Also, suing a company and attempting to get money is a whole lot easier than actually having to go to work. She’s pathetic and I hoep that she doesn’t get a dime from e*trade. She had the whole world at her fingertips and royally blew it. Sorry, but Ms. Lohan gets no sympathy from me.

  62. TEK says:

    The way I see it, the Lohans are searching for any way possible to generate income, since actual talent is no longer a possibility!

  63. karen says:

    this is like spike lee after spike tv popped up, remember? can you BELIEVE he pulled that off???? spike the butch dog in the old cartoons should have trumped them all. so yes, crazier lawsuits have succeeded. hot coffee spilled in your lap the fault of the fast food restaurant, anyone?

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spike_(TV_channel)

  64. CB Rawks says:

    It’s hilarious, deluded, sad, and also I feel like knocking all their heads together.
    It’s obviously a huge lie on their part, Lindsay is NOT known by her first name, like Cher. She’s known as Lilo, Crackhead, Firecrotch.
    But if it was true in any tiny way, they should be grateful that someone actually thought of her!
    What I find the most hilarious is that they think that ad constitutes 100 million worth of damages! Like Lindsay has any possible shot at making that kind of money in the future!
    Wait, how much is Jenna Jameson worth?

  65. Aspen says:

    Lindsay used to be so pretty.

  66. Lia says:

    The only bigger twit on this planet than Lindsay Lohan is her mother, Dina. What an idiot. “Mocking a child”?? Look what she did to her own children, for Pete’s sake. She is a complete dud as a mother. The “milkaholic” ad is funny and cute. She should wish her loser daughter was only addicted to milk….

  67. Bonnie says:

    Rawks – you are dead on. Hope they have to pay a million for this nonsense.

  68. Bonnie says:

    I think I meant SPOT ON

  69. Bonnie says:

    Gordon Ramsey would rip her and White Oprah to shreds — that would be a great cooking show! Piss off

  70. EMV says:

    The commercial is hilarious and the Lohan’s are insane. They must be hurting for some dough or something…b/c this lawsuit is ridiculous.

  71. Jazz says:

    Expect that pimple on the ass of society – Michael Lohan – to speak out about this any minute now.

  72. Istanem says:

    I simply loathe these two.

  73. Leek says:

    Twenty-three year old women are not children.

    My name is Lindsay and I’m in my 30’s. Should I sue the Lohans for ruining the my name? When I look it up in Urban Dictionary it’s reference after reference to doing blow. If potential employers saw that I could be screwed!

    Boycott these scumbags now.

    Dina Lohan — YOU ARE SCUM OF THE EARTH

    Yours truly,
    Lindsay (adult since the age of 18, mistakes and all)

  74. Lisa says:

    Oh please don’t stop with the Lohan craziness! It is hilarious!

  75. jenny says:

    DIEEEEEEEEEEE lindsay blohan.

  76. NicoleAM says:

    First off she really needs to lower her asking price. $100 million? Riiiight. I guess she’s pretty hard up for cash and she saw a door slightly ajar, and now she’s got her foot desperately wedged in! And her monster mom referring to her as a “child”? Caught that and laughed right away. She’s 23 yrs old, Mrs. Lohan…she’s not a child, she’s not a teenager, she’s not even college aged! STFU and go away Lohans!

  77. Madisyn says:

    Question: How is it that both parents have brown eyes and she hasblue/green? Also in photos of her 3 siblings, they also have brown eyes. Did Dina have visits with the mailman?

  78. Courtney says:

    uhm…I’m 23. My birthday is like 22 days later than Ms. Lohans. I own my own house, have a four year old, am married, work full time in a career I had to get an education for WHILE caring for a baby, and am currently expecting my second child in a month.

    Being immature is not related to age, its related to your upbringing. For Dina to say that her daughter is a child is only admitting her own faults as a parent to guide and shape a responsible and socially acceptable adult.
