she sued because she's a headcase.

if anything putting his likeness in control of the players will likely limit the instances of him being associated with crap acts. the people who still think it matters likely wouldn't pick songs he wouldn't like and those who don't likely wouldn't pick him as a character. although knowing it would piss Love off to no end makes it significantly more tempting now.
