Better late than never or in the case of Hollywood's troubled star Lindsay Lohan always late and maybe never.
According to the reports, Lilo is taking Cuban-American rapper Pitbull to court over the lyrics of his party hit 'Give Me Everything'. She claims that "the lyrics, by virtue of its wide appeal, condemnation, excoriation, disparaging or defamatory statements by the defendants about the plaintiff are destined to do irreparable harm to the plaintiff."
A line of the song goes, "I got it locked up like Lindsay Lohan."
In the court documents, Lohan says that as "A professional actor of good repute and standing in the Screen Actors Guild, she is suing under the New York civil rights laws, which protects people from having their name exploited for commercial purposes."
Interestingly, the song was released 5 months ago in March this year. It took Lilo almost half a year to wake up to the "irreparable harm" that the song was causing her.
Her lawyer, Stephanie Ovadia, told E! News, "The problem is they used her name without compensation in the song, and confused the public about whether or not she was a collaborator."
The co-defendants, alongwith Pitbull, Ne-yo and Afrojack are co-writers of the song.
No comments from Pitbull's camp so far.
