Amanda Beards Godaddy Sharks

Amanda Beard has launched a lawsuit on Godaddy.com. Talk about swimming with the sharks. Beard challenged her former sponsor, Godaddy.com and the two entities are headed to court.

This a weird outcome for a presumably entertaining woman who led the appeal-based Godaddy campaign, which had earned derision from some domainers.

Beard was in the “Danica Patrick” lead car ad onslaught for the massive hosting provider and registrar. Beard used to be the s been accused by many domainers as having very “feminine” ad strategies. Beard was a pitchwoman for the site, and has filed her lawsuit claiming in related news that Godaddy.com unlawfully exploited her name and image for sales purposes.

We don’t know what caused the break up between the two, but a current check of Godaddy.com shows no signs of a Beard. Amanda is seeking unspecified damages.
