Pitbull has filed a counter suit against Lindsay Lohan over a defamation lawsuit she filed against him back in August. The actress accused the rapper of exploiting her name in his hit Give Me Everything, in which he says "I got it locked up like Lindsay Lohan." Pitbull claimed that the slang term was supposed to be a positive message about how Lindsay runs her life the way she wants and has it under control.
Pitbull already apologized to Lohan for the lyrics of the song and insisted that he meant no harm to her or her reputation, but now he's insisting that the line in question is justified by her multiple jail visits.
The Miami rapper is also questioning whether Lindsay is eligible to file a lawsuit in New York. LiLo claims to be a resident of Nassau County, New York, but has publicly spent the majority of her time in California, where she is serving probation for her latest round of legal battles.
Pitbull's counter suit says:
"In light of Ms. Lohan's continuing obligations to the State of California, as well as the foregoing facts, Ms. Lohan is a citizen of California, not New York."
Since the suit against him was filed prior to the MTV Video Music Awards, Pitbull did the gentlemanly thing and invited LiLo to join him at the show where he was going to be performing the song in question. He even left her a ticket at will call! Of course, Lindsay was a no show!
Lindsay has been attempting to repair her image and reputation following a string of legal problems over the past two years, which included a lock up in rehab and a house arrest at her Venice, California home. Most recently, LiLo checked into Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood, California on Sunday night and served less than five hours behind bars for a probation violation, before being released early Monday morning.
After all is said and done, Pitbull actually has a point. Even if the lyric was meant to make a joke at Lindsay's expense, it's true now more than ever! LiLo has been spending an awful lot of time trying to keep herself out of the the slammer, and we have 5 mugshots to back it up! So there is really not much she can say now about Pitbull ruining her reputation when she herself is the one in charge of continuously getting locked up in the California jails, making Pitbull's lyrics not a defamation, but a simple fact of reality!
Do you think Lindsay should withdraw her lawsuit? Do you think Pitbull’s counter sue has more power than LiLo’s?
