Lola Del Rio (also named Lollipop Girl as a Rockstar Games Social Club profile avatar) is a prostitute who appears on promotional artwork for Grand Theft Auto IV, as well as on the box cover art.
History[]
Background[]
In October 2007, her character art was painted on the side of a building in SoHo, New York, advertising the game.
She is supposedly in the game, and her name can be found on the LCPD website. Her profile says she can usually be found around Star Junction and the docks in Algonquin, but, like many other female characters featured in promotional artwork for GTA and other Rockstar games, she cannot be found in-game.

Trivia[]
- Lola is, in many ways, similar to Grand Theft Auto III's character Misty. They are both prostitutes that are featured in nearly every promotional artwork for their respective games. The only difference is that Misty actually appears in-game, unlike Lola.
- If the player purchases Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City (disc version), it comes with a poster of Gracie Ancelotti, Lola Del Rio, and Joni on one side and a map of Liberty City on the other.
- Lola has six fingers on her right hand, likely an error made by the artist of the artwork.
- In the PC edition of the game, there is a poster of her with this error corrected.
- The character's artwork design is based on Stephen Bliss's wife, according to one of his Instagram posts.[1]
