Steven Tyler, the aging Aerosmith frontman, sued some bloggers for imitating him on the Web. Steven Tyler said the imposters wrote about the death of his mother and other private details from his life. Tyler, 60, says he doesn’t know who is imitating him and girlfriend Erin Brady, but thinks it’s the same people who did so a year ago. Tyler petitioned Google to remove the fake Steven Tyler blogs and Google acquiesced. The Steven Tyler blogs were hosted by Google on Blogspot.  "The impersonated statements relating to (Tyler's) mother are perhaps most hurtful given that she recently passed away," the lawsuit stated. Tyler's lawsuit accuses the bloggers of public disclosure of private facts, making false statements and misappropriation of likeness. It also seeks an injunction to have the defendants stop impersonating him online or elsewhere.
