A man in Hot Springs, Montana is suing Viacom (who own MTV) because he claims Jackass is defaming his name.
“Ass filed a six-page complaint against Viacom, which owns MTV, for “plagiarizing” and “defaming” his name with a TV show and a movie depicting young men who, among other things, snort lines of wasabi and pee on snow and eat it”
Funny old world, isn’t it? 🙂
