Woman Sues Victoria's Secret, Claims Injury From Defective Thong
A Los Angeles woman claims she was injured by her Victoria's Secret thong, prompting her to sue the underwear manufacturer.
The plaintiff in the case, Macrida Patterson, 52, attributed the May 2007 injury to a Victoria's Secret "low-rise v-string," according to a court document posted on The Smoking Gun.
Patterson's lawyer told The Smoking Gun that a "design problem" caused a decorative metallic piece on the underwear to fly up and hit Patterson in the eye while she was putting the underwear on.
Patterson's product liability lawsuit was filed in Los Angeles Superior Court last week.
The Smoking Gun reported that, prior to the lawsuit, officials from Victoria's Secret had asked to see the offending underwear but were refused by Patterson's lawyer.
HAHAHA thats really funny
HAHAHAHA i always knew floss up your ass was lethal
i saw her on the today show– she clearly needed an extra large thong.
First!
This woman is an f'n loser!
Can I be the first to say… GO COMMANDO if you can't handle a thong.
It really would not surprise me, the quality of VS sucks!!! Quit getting the 5 yr olds in china to make your products!!!!
this reminds me of the finger in the chili!
wow…52 and wearing a thong. I think it's a sign from the VS Gods not to wear one.
beware of underwear!
(2nd?)
nooiiiice
stupid
Wow, first for two posts in a row? Ha ha Perez, I'm the only person in the world on your site right now. Turkey!
I'm sorry, but a 52 should not be wearing thongs, not matter how good you look. That's could be someone's grandma, disgusting. This lawsuit is bullshit, people just trying to make a quick buck.
First I thought that thong has cut her cornhole
But it allegedly injured her EYE (??)
Sooo stupid!!!
first!
wow
haha!! bitches!
why is someone that age wearing a thong?
thats cause there is no offending undies and she is lying!!!!!!!!!!
First.
What an idiot.
you're supposed to wear this over your cootch, not on your head. unless you're at a party. what a moron.
looooooool idiot
I work at VS. I know which ones shes probably talking about because most do not have little metal pieces. For that little piece to fly with that much force that lady must be an XL trying to fit into an XS. dumbass.
UNBELIEVABLE! God protect America!
Since when 52 year olds aren't allowed to wear thongs anymore? jeez.
wow I am first!!!
i HEARD EDDiE, JOBO & ERiCA TELL YOU THiS TiD-BiT ON THE RADiO iN CHiCAGO YESTERDAY MORNiNG. YOU SHOULD TELL JOBO THAT YOU POSTED SOMETHiNG ABOUT THiS STORY. HE WOULD BE SO PROUD OF HiMSELF.
WTF!!! bitch, those draws were not made for your wrinkely ass!!!!
Hilar!!
This woman was injured by a product that an inspector did not thoroughly check. It is a viable case. I feel bad for her that it was a pair of underwear. Its embarrassing and obviously all of these idiots that post comments are going to point that out.
that is so dumb!…the things people do these days to try to get some money!!
what the hell.. seriously thats a risk you're willing to take when wearing a garment with decals… it'd be like someone wearing a button-up shirt suing the company cuz a button flew up and hit them… you obviously know the buttons are there, and that they could detach …. seriously if i was the judge id just give her a fucking fine or some shit for being so ignorant
52 and wearing a thong from Victoria Secret…ewwww
And they found a lawyer that actually was willing to take the case HAHAHAHAHAHA! Just shows what bottom dwelling scum suckers they are…
hahaha!!! what did a 52 year old woman want with a thong anyway? and just the fact that it injured her eye of all unlikely places is hilarious
Who the fuck are you to tell people what they should or shouldn't wear? maybe the woman wanted to be sexy for her husband or something? if she's 52 then cannot be sexy anymore and just roll over and die? fucking idiots
What the hell was she doin' buyin' thongs? She's 52…..she should be gettin' Granny Panties! LOL!
WHEN PANTIES ATTACK!
Ok I saw this woman on the TODAY show this morning and my guess is this "healthy" lady maybe didn't fit correctly in a VS thong and therefore it busted open. Reminds me when my friend in high school wore a tight shirt and a button flew off from it being too tight. It sounds like her fault, not VS.
Re: Canel –
Canel any woman has a right to wear thongs. WTF is wrong with you? Life isn't over at 52 you know geez.
Anyway in this country you can sue anyone for anything so i'm not surprised this is happening.
YEA WHEN A FAT ASS TRIES TO PUT ON A SMALL THONG AND STRETCHES THE HELL OUT OF IT, OF COURSE EVERYTHING IS GOING TO POP OFF!!!!! COMMON FREAKIN SENSE. DUMBASS I HOPE SHE LOSES AND FEELS EMBARASSED
Women of all ages wear thongs to prevent those ugly 'panty lines'. I don't think your age has anything to do with it. She obviously wants $$.
We have a new stunt for Jackass III The Movie. We can have Johnny Knoxville try on thongs!
Haha! What a loser. Of all the places underwear can make you uncomfortable, it's this bitch's eye. HAHA.
Whatever- this women is money hungry.
I saw this watermelon eater on CNN with her gook lawyer. how he could sit next to her and say she deserves $$$ for this without laughing was beyond me. there is NO way a thong should be on that fried chicken eatin ass. funny, when VS asked to see the offending drawers, her and her lawyer refused to allow them to examine them. hummmmm…..I wonder why?? was she trying to cram that XXL black booty into XS undies…….anyone remember the old hag that had to be told McD's coffee was HOT??? she got paid, and I am sure this sista will too……
wait just ONE freakin minute!!!!!!!!!! what is a 52 year old woman doing wearing a low rise V string anyway????
I work for a Victoria's Secret and unless the woman ripped the thong in the back it's basically impossible for it to do that! I know exactly which ones she was probably wearing and that's just insane, they were a very popular style. She's just crazy!
Can you picture the judges face when he reads this in court……I couldnt do it I would laugh so damn hard. Why is this grandma buying thongs in the first place, maybe she thought she was going to get some and she wanted to be sexy. !LOL! !LOL! !LOL!
Only in america…
1. Americans sue over the most ridiculous things. Have you no common sense, shame or decency?
2. Thongs are not attractive on anyone
3. She must have been stretching that thong quite a lot for the metal thingy to fly off at a speed enough to cause injury
4. VS should sue her for wasting their time and money
Ah you sue happy americans - always hoping to make a quick buck off of someone else.
Ewww. F'ing pig. Maybe you shouldn't be wearing a "v string" when you're 52. Uh. I hate people. She was obviously LOOKING for a reason to sue someone….anyone. A little late on this month's bills, perhaps? Pig.
i saw her on today too. i have seen way to many itty bitty thongs sticking out of the top of pants by larger woman who need bigger ones….girlfriend probably bought one that was too small.
Re: Fred –
Believe me….I am NOT proud to call these people fellow Americans. And thankfully, we are not all like this. I promise
I saw this on CNN and it said she was trying them on in the fitting room.
I work for VS and the fact that she was trying them on is the first thing she should have known not to do…unless she was trying them on over her other underwear. Not only is it stupid, but it's disgusting. Is anyone else going to want to wear those things?
It was probably the SLT's.
In response to you, f'er (post # 46), you are a racist, ignorant ass. Really, "gook"? "fried chicken eatin ass" i hope you get banned from commenting. it's people like you who make the rest of us look bad.
and as for this woman… seriously? why would you sue VS? stupid.
SO SAD!!!!!!!
The lady was on the "Today's" show with her lawyer and there is a video- check it out.
I saw that werido LOSER on the Today Show this a.m.

Spare me — she's a LOSER and she's trying to make money. Simply put — Judges NEED to throw these types of retarded law suits out.
-

Anyone has the "right" to sue — But the Courts are here to uphold the standards, and ridiculous law suits like this should never, ever see the light of day
I DONT THINK U GUYS REALIZE THAT YOU ARE DISCRIMINATING SOMEONE BECAUSE OF HER AGE… THATS JUST AS BAD AS RACISM… "WHY IS THAT WOMAN BUYING AFRICAN HAIR PRODUCTS, SHES WHITE" SAME JUDGEMENTAL SHIT! AGEISM IS JUST AS BAD AS ANY OTHER -ISM… SO STOP BEING IGNORANT AND REALIZE THAT JUDGING SOMEONE BECAUSE OF THEIR AGE WONT GET U ANYWHERE… SO GIVE IT UP! U AGEIST FUCKS!
NOT ONLY THAT U GUYS MUST BE LIKE 12 YEARS OLD TO THINK THAT 52 IS OLD… GROW THE HELL UP!!! MY MOM IS 52 AS WELL AND HAS A 6 PACK AND IS A PERSONAL TRAINER… I DARE SOMEONE TO SAY SHE CANT WEAR A THONG… MADONNA IS 50 SOMETHING AND IF SHE WORE A THONG ITD BE OK RIGHT??? WHEN UR 52 UR NOT AN OLD WRINKLY LADY! WHAT PEOPLE WEAR UNDER THEIR CLOTHES IN NONE OF UR BUSINESS AND DOES NOT NEED UR APPROVAL, PEOPLE!
what a f'in loser. she needs to get a life. what is with everyone these days? they find a large co and then find a way to sue.
don't people work for a living anymore?
get a life loser.
what the hell is a 52 year old doing wearing a v-string? FOUL
haha nice advertisement right below.
thats the dumbest shit i ever heard. that women needs to find a real job if she want money. she probably spend more money on a lawyer than wat she earns n what shes going to get from the ridiculous lawsuit
hahah I buy stuff at vicky's secret all the time..I love that store. that lady just wants money, don't discriminate against a great store.
Re: Erica – YOU FEEL SORRY FOR SOMEONE WHO IS SCAMMING VS! plz!!
why would there even be a metallic piece material in a thong? The truth is that she had trouble with her little sex toy and doesn't want to admit it. Ha what a loser.
Well if they cant see it then how can they know for sure?
Hey! I'm 53 and I still wear thong underwear! Altho I must say- I know how to put them on without putting out my eye! lol
LADY….. GET A LIFE (AND A JOB)
Re: KARIN – Ageist? what the hell hahahahaha. oooh that's dumb.
There is not a 52 year old on this earth who looks good in a thong! Her eye injury was just Gods way of blinding her so she can continue to decieve herself into thinking she looks good in the mirror.
Thanks God!!
I think this story is messed up? I'd heard it was PEREZ who was suing because the thong pinched his teeny tiny little sausage when he drove?
ew 50 year olds shouldn't even wear thongs
