Gwen Is Angry And There's No Doubt About It
2:05 Thursday, November 5, 2009
In a new lawsuit filed in LA County Superior Court, the band claims that Santa Monica-based Activision, the maker of the virtual-reality game Band Hero, has far exceeded the contractually approved use of the names or likenesses of Stefani and No Doubt band members Tony Kanal, Tom Dumont and Adrian Young.
The group also claims that Activision "transformed No Doubt band members into a virtual karaoke circus act by having them sing, dance and perform over 60 songs".
The band is particularly upset that Stefani's animated image can be made to sing the Rolling Stones track Honky Tonk Woman in a male voice, which contains lyrics about "having sex with prostitutes".
The band is suing for an injunction "prohibiting the unauthorized use of No Doubt's name and likeness in the game".
They are asking for an undetermined amount of damages.
Who cares if she's pissed or not. I could care less what she has to think.
