Aw, E-Trade gave Lindsay Lohan a sad :( The actress is suing the company for $100 million dollars because she claims they modeled a baby "milkaholic" in their commercial after her. The ad shows a girl baby grilling her baby boyfriend about hanging out with "that milkaholic Lindsay." Her lawyer claims the actress has "single-name recognition as Oprah or Madonna," and that the company used the name to trash the fallen starlet.

Now her mommy Dina tells the NY Post that her daughter called her up crying when she first saw the commercial; "She said, 'Mommy, help me. This is wrong. How can they do this?'" Dina says the family won't stand for this type of bullying, and added, "They're little babies doing this, mocking another child who's just trying to survive Hollywood."

The "little babies" and E-Trade have yet to comment, but the company that produced the ad maintains that they just chose a popular girl's name, and that someone working on it was also named Lindsay.
