Topic: Blogging – Aerosmith's Tyler sues over blog impersonations – Reuters

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler on Wednesday sued unknown bloggers who the singer said impersonated him on the Web, writing about the death of his mother and other “intimate details” from his life. In a lawsuit filed in Los Angeles, Tyler, 60, said he didn’t know the real names of those who have impersonated him and girlfriend Erin Brady on the Web, but he believes the same group was responsible for similar postings in 2007. The latest batch of impersonator blogs, which show pictures of Tyler, the lead singer for the rock group Aerosmith, were posted at Blogspot. Tyler’s lawsuit accuses the bloggers of public disclosure of private facts, making false statements and misappropriation of likeness.
