You're wrong it's model Shelby Welinder, she already confirmed it.

 

Also he posted that he "thinks" she looks like Alexis Texas, while posting the actual cover girl with the link provided.

So... A fame seeking pornstar "confirms" that she is the girl in GTA V cover is a reliable source? Instead of looking at the pic that shows significant Kate Upton similiarities. I don't really buy her confirmation :)

 

Dude you need to learn how to read. I never said the pornstar (Alexis Texas) confirmed anything. I said that model Shelby Welinder confirmed she's the cover model and she provided proof.

Okey, I mixed the names there :p Yet still I find the image showing the identical pose and body structure between the cover and Kate Upton as a proof more than the proof from... Wait a minute... A proof from Shelby Welinder is what/where exactly? Could you give me a link to it?

I believe it's just a cop out on Rockstars part so they don't get sued. They should definitely get sued for that instead of this stupidity. It's not okay to use someone's photograph close to directly as the source for your artwork in which you use heavily to promote your product and not pay credit where it's due.

Yeah, the image looks to me almost a exact copy of the Kate Upton's picture.

Copyright, and artistic license/fair-use laws dictate that something needs only be altered by approximately 25% of its original content to be considered 'new material'...

 

This is how Rockstar gets around not having to pay for licensing of vehicle likeness. They take a model of say a Ferrari and alter it a bit, or combine it with styling from a different car (just like the Gauntlet being about 50% Camaro and 50% Challenger).

 

Many companies do this to circumvent copyright. Also, in any of the fine print it says that any likeness of people or situations to that of real ones is purely coincidental, for the sole purpose of preventing things like this.

I wouldn't call it a "cop out" by Rockstar since they never said anything. This is a case where the model came out and made it known it was her, after a lot of people was confusing her with photos of pornstar Alexis Texas(I think the confusion started on reddit). Also the cover photo pose to is pretty common, a blonde girl taking a selfie with a beach foreground... it's been done and seen hundreds of times before. If Shelby Welinder never confirmed it was her I would've thought the cover girl was iJustine, Candice Swanepoel or countless other models since they all resemble the cover art.

wasn't this the crack whore who got admitted to the Mayo Clinic for detox a while back?

 

Sounds like she's going to need the money given the way Hollywood might end up going with Obamacare :ph34r:

The art girl is not covered with freckles. And it doesn't look like her lips have been botoxed. Case closed!

The cover art girl is clearly related to another model, as found pre-release when people were looking at who the characters were played by, it turned out to resemble Kate Upton the most. See below:

 

 

 

 

It was later revealed that it wasn't actually her, but someone else, who was properly payed for it. So if anything, Kate Upton has a case, just like that of the Barack Photographer for the OBEY artwork.

 

Lindsey won't get anything from Rockstar as their small print before the game loads suggests that any resemblemce to real life counterparts within GTA V are purely coincidental. Some of them obviously aren't a coincidence, but that is there in writing to cover Rockstars asses when stuff like this happens. There is no way she will get anything.

 

That musician who wanted money from Rockstar for using his songs without permission ad a better case, and look what that got him when battling Rockstar, nothing.

I disagree, it would be awesome to see Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone and Steven Seagal as GTA protagonists! :)

Oh the trio of bad acting skills and faces... Too hilarious... :D

 

Oh oh and the perfect idea for bank robbery planner: Morgan Freeman! Morgan over Lester any time!

 

 

No not Arnold. That guy had several women claim he touched them up. And since he had affair with the employee of the house at the end of the last century, there is no reason why those allegations shouldn't be true.

It doesn't take Matlock to figure out that Rockstar used a pic of Kate Upton. It's obviously Kate, but Rockstar thinks they can pull the wool over everyone's eyes and save a few dollars by claiming they used that Shelby chick. Bottom line: It's not Lohan's nasty ass.

Cracksay Lohan's kinda got a point, I happened to see a fat, ugly, crack-smoking hooker in the game who looked exactly like her. :evilgrin:
