A Young Cheerleader named Syvette Wimberley has found out that a porno actress is using her name. *gasp* The funniest part is that another girl on the Cheerleading team is named Courtney Cummz. I only wish I could have found pictures of these chicks.
According to the Houston Press:
Syvette is actually Lara Madden, from Kingwood. You think you’re gonna get anywhere in porn with a name like “Lara Madden”? Guess again. So Madden picked a new name. Unfortunately for Syvette Wimberley, her former classmate in Kingwood, she picked…Syvette Wimberley.
Caj Boatright, the real Wimberley’s attorney, says the whole ordeal has been “kind of a nightmare” for his client, who is not doing interviews. “Syvette wants this to pass as quickly as possible…her goal is to get her name away from the adult industry,” he adds.
“[S]he wanted a name that sounded unique,” says Madden’s attorney, Kent Schaffer. It wasn’t done out of spite, he insists: “If she were doing it to be malicious, she would’ve made sure that this girl knew she was using the name two years ago when it occurred.”
The real Wimberley eventually found out when she started getting weird questions from friends. (How does that go? “Hey, Syvette — I saw you in this great double-penetration scene last night! Well, I didn’t make it through all of the scene, but what I saw was great!!”)
And in case your porno mind is envisioning some sweet young lesbian love affair that caused Madden to adopt the name, forget it: “They were never good friends,” Schaffer said. “They were acquaintances.”
The Smoking Gun Web site was first to note Wimberley suing Madden; we blogged about it at our Houstoned blog and now it’s gone worldwide. Which, ummm, really is serving to ensure that the 99 percent of people who never heard of either of the Syvette Wimberleys will now always associate the name with porn.
“Nobody comes out a winner in this deal,” Schaffer says. Madden no longer does porn and Wimberley’s lawsuit “has caused her a whole lot of embarrassment,” Schaffer says. (As much as starring in Big Cocks 5?)
Yet, Boatright points out, “Movies are still being released or have been since she…allegedly left the business that she [was] in…And there’s still obviously tons of content on the web that has that name on it…[the movies] are still very accessible to the public.”
The really bad part about the suit is that Schaffer’s one of the funnier lawyers in town, but he’s playing all this absolutely straight, droning on about what a shame it is that all of Kingwood now knows Lara Madden did dirty movies.
