All these bands are just showing they are money hungry assh*les. Does them no harm, they already got paid and now they are acting like it's not enough. Jerks.
Wow... get over yourselves. Seriously. A lawsuit because the "likeness" of an "avatar" that *might* look somewhat like a real person is singing a different song? Wow, Gwen... I guess you've never sung a song other than the ones No Doubt performs in your life, huh? How egotistical.
Geez get over it already its just a damn game...you know fantasy, fun oh wait, are video games not supposed to be like that?? Guess what game im not buying....NO DOUBT!!!!!
OMG! Are you serious? It's a friggn game for crying out loud. I love No Doubt, Gwen Stefani, but get a grip. It's not a big friggn deal. Can't you all look pass that and just enjoy your lives without having to cause caos, or must you all be paid for every little thing. Give me a break! Gosh. Who gives a damn about an avitar! I agree with you Julie... How egotistical. That's why our world is so messed up today, we have too many people worrying about the little things.
What a bunch of d***h*** the people who are suing not you guys you guys are great :)
Wow a singer complaining about suggestive lyrics in music,you would think it's rock and roll or a video game the way they are acting.
I just lost ALOT of respect for NO Doubt & Gwen Stefani!! I would have NEVER thought they would've done something like this. Why is everyone so DAMN money hungry?? I guess they all haven't made enough money to support themselves & there familes for the rest of there damn lives! Well, i guess i'll rethink buying your products the next time I'm out at the store. How sad! From one Cali girl to another get off it girl! I know I would love playing other sngs NOT just your tunes & seeing you & the other band members rockin' out to hit songs like Rolling Stones & such! Guess, your all just to good for that!! Gee's I feel like someone slaped me in the face with this one! I hope Band Hero wins & you Lose cause I'll buy it just to play the group to other songs. Stop being such Doushebags!!
"The suit claims that the game's 'Character Manipulation Feature' unfairly lets players use the band's avatars to perform songs by other artists, effectively turning the group into 'a virtual karaoke circus act.' "
Isn't this how most people see No Doubt nowadays anyway? Complete sell-outs
Ok so Gwen your a joke now?Go be a mommy and stop doing music if you cant handle being in a video game.I am gonna make my own avatar that looks like you and force you to sing a slipknot song.You should lose this case.What ever happened to Bush?
money hungry no talented artist in the headlines once again. Gwen is annoying and so is this article.
It's just the last transformation for Gwen. Into a Diva, a pain in the A$$!
Grow up Gwen, have they ever seen or played the other 5 GH games??? I think acting like they never knew that was going to happen is just pure greedy sellouts! Then asking to fork over money when they haven't come up with an Album for money?!
Don't worry Gwen, your not a Hola-Back-Girl, now really a true Diva. Like J Lo or Tyra!
OMG!! get a sense of humor so what we can make you do what we want. when I'm the one paying 60 bucks to pretty much pretend I'm Gwen I'd prefere to be able to sing whatever the hell I want! I love you dearly Gwen but this is one battle your going to far with! Come on are the millions you already have not enough???
Seriously? just being a******, its ok to put their song on the game and get it heard by some that may not hear it and maybe sell more albums ect. but don't you f*** with our pixel faced avatars, f*** or we'll sue! bunch of f***** whiney ass, overpaid bitches who should thank their lucky stars anyone would even want to play their sorry asses on a game.
They shouldn't have signed the contract if they were going to be this stupid about it- it's an avatar for christ's sake! and claiming that they "split up the band" to have them sing different songs is just plain silly! it's not "the band" they're in game simulations! this is ridiculous!
This is Sad!!!! It's a game... Kids mostly play this and probably have NO idea who NO doubt is.... I really look down on Gwen for this.... She needs to go back creating hand bags and lip singing to something!!!!
Gwen Stefani and No Doubt need to get over it, get a life, and stop being such stubborn brats. They know it will be really funny watching themselves sing silly songs, they just are too uptight to let loose. I sing inappropriate guy songs in public, do you think I look funny?
Yeah, like Gwen's music isn't suggestive at all. And the other claims are just plain stupid. What the hell's wrong with them?
This is just sad. Musicians used to do it for the music, but I guess once they start hawking awful clothes and cheezy makeup products they have no pride or integrity left anayway... may as well start suing people for stupid crap to try an extend their stardom.
Gwen, you are irrelevant anymore, just like Kurt Cobain. This lawsuit only sullies what used to be your good name.
Oh wow. I agree with a lot of the other people. You just lost a lot of respect Gwen. I would not have sued if I were you because now you're just going to lose so much more money for your "once big hit CD's" than suing could have ever brought in. Eww.. makes me mad. Wonder how much a pawn shop would give me for them. I'd rather have the game.
Damn it, I'm not done with this rant. The more I think about it, the more pissed I get! Gwen, as a female musician myself, I used to look up to you. I thought you were powerful and strong and eminated a confidence and intelligence that female musicians are so often not afforded in the business. You were not a bimbo. But you are worse. You are a sell out and a whore in the truest sense of the word. At least Brittany doesn't hide what she is.
Haha, no I'm not. I'm just a passionate musician who becomes increasingly disgusted with greed on a daily basis. Music used to be for people, but now it is just for the lawyers. Constant lawsuits over who owns what, who has the right to play or download or reproduce or distribute... blah, blah, blah. One day I will be stopped at a red light, banging the sterring wheel and belting out a tune when the FBI will approach my vehicle and drag me out by my hair for infringing on some G-damn musician's rights. Such B.S.
Are all of you serious? It's not about the money. Listen to yourselves. They agreed to 3 No Doubt songs, not 60+ random artists songs. It's a matter of contract regardless of them being sell-outs. Although not as popular as they once were they earned the right to battle this after 10+ albums worth of hard work building their name.
Who cares these games suck to begin with. They are nothing like playing the real thing. Go pickup real instruments. Nothing original about these games and now their ripping off each other's names. Band Hero. Is this what you get when you combine guitar hero and rock band? Band Hero?
Guess what peeps? This is what our mainstream music has come to. Awful, self centered, and completely bored out of their minds that they have to pull BS stuff like this just to make them feel good. Maybe if mainstream musicians put as much effort into making music without just looping craptastic lyrics as they do into suing over rights for stupid stuff, they'd have more respect from their fans. *end rant*
Upset because your image is performing a Rolling Stones song? She should be so lucky...she can barely perform her own stuff. The Stones should be suing.
wow people that make millions of dollars(celebritys) and still sue for something this stupid i only got one word that defines these type of people -pethetic-
