Given that he has the name of the album tattooed on his chest, and he agreed to remake the picture as an adult 6 years ago (even offering to be naked, which the photographer rejected) I'm gonna say this is just an attempt to cash in.
- the_only_law 5y agoA pretty pathetic attempt at that. If you’re gonna pull this sort of stunt for the cash, at least try for a more impressive number.
- rich_sasha 5y agoIt is $150k per defendant, of which there are 15. $7.5m is not a bad grab. Less costs etc.
- jacquesm 5y agoMath not your strong suit or typo?
- the_only_law 5y agoAh I misread that, that makes a bit more sense
- pelasaco 5y agofrom where I come from $150k * 15 = $2.25m...
- luckylion 5y agoThat's using the metric system, but he's suing in the US, you have to multiply by Pi and then round up a bit.
- dylan604 5y agoand multiply by 5 divide by 9 and subtract 32
- rich_sasha 5y agoAh yes. Never trust a mathematician to do sums. Though this is a bit embarrassing, this is 10^sth * 15^2, I really ought to know my squares. Getting the exponent right is a minor detail though.
- lugged 5y agoProbably but it sounds like he was roped into it as a young teenager to do the reshoots and I'm guessing if you're struggling it'd be hard to turn down secondary opportunities to make some money. I don't think you can use that to discount his real complaint, he got his baby photos used on a record and got almost nothing for it.
- fastball 5y agoI give "if you're struggling its hard to turn down money" about as much credence as I give stealing because you're poor.

- ekianjo 5y ago> I'm gonna say this is just an attempt to cash in. A man's gotta have a little money to build his own swimming pool
- amelius 5y agoWell, in his defense: they taught him to chase money as a baby.
