Samantha Muldoon is a celebrity in the Grand Theft Auto series, appearing in Grand Theft Auto IV and as a country pop star in Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online.
History[]
Background[]
Samantha is featured on the celebrity news/gossip site, our-own-reality.com throughout the events of GTA IV, so some of her details may be tabloid hyperbole rather than actual fact.
Events of Grand Theft Auto IV[]
At the very beginning of the game, she is married (her fourth marriage) to Kirk Simplex for a mere twenty minutes. Their marriage ceremony cost $50 million, featured her thirteen foreign children in heritage costumes, and A-Z List magazine paying $15 million for exclusive coverage.
After Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend, Muldoon switched religions three times in one week (from Buddhism to Kabbalah to Epsilonist).
After the end of the story she attempts to adopt a fourteenth child, a baby from Kenya which she returned due to its constant crying. Another child, eight year old Cambodian boy Wave, who was given a faux-hawk, wasn't seen for some time and was probably sent home as well.
Events of Grand Theft Auto V[]
She is one of the honored celebrities on the Vinewood Boulevard Vinewood Walk of Fame.
Sometime after the events of GTA IV she took up Christianity, a fake Southern accent, right-wing views and transitioned from pop to country music. In 2013, Muldoon attempted suicide by ingesting a bottle of vodka with a fistful of pills, after a recent breakup and struggles in her career (she later tried to pass it off as an accident). A few months after the incident, she appeared on the Blaine County Radio show Bless Your Heart with Bobby June. She tells Bobby June that her adopted children still number at thirteen, who "each have their own room and their own name!". She debuts a song from her new album, I Like Things Just the Way They Are. During Paparazzo, Beverly Felton mentions that there are rumors of Samantha buying a North Korean baby through the black market.
In Friend Request, one of the Weazel News headlines that appears during Jay Norris' speech says that Samantha keeps her adopted children in a separated house because they are "too loud".
Events of Grand Theft Auto Online[]
In 2021, a drunk Samantha Muldoon tried to see Franklin Clinton in his office at the F. Clinton and Partner agency, but he refused to see her. Having worked as part of her security in the past, the guard recalled her negatively and was only too happy to turn her away.
