Club Owner Willing to Spoil Lindsay Lohan With Mink Fur

jueves, 22 de mayo de 2008 |

Lindsay Lohan allegedly took someone else’s mink coat a couple of months ago at a New York nightclub; the disgruntled victim is suing her for unspecified damages and the owner of another nightclub wants to buy the young actress her own fur.

John Englebert, owner of Prime nightclub and Suzie Wong Saki Lounge, is willing to buy Lindsay Lohan a new $11,000 blond mink coat, just like the one she allegedly stole in January. Furthermore, Englebert is ready to settle the embarrassing lawsuit she’s been hit with by her alleged victim.

Masha Markova, 22, claims she went to New York City nightclub 1Oak in late January and left her $11,000 golden mink coat with the other partygoers’ garments. Lohan attended the same bash.

To Markova’s surprise, her precious coat was nowhere to be found at the end of the party. A little while later, serendipity struck and she found her cherished fur – adorning Lohan, who was smiling from the pages of a magazine.

Markova, a New York college student, told the New York Post that she was certain the actress was wearing her coat. The mink was returned, after a two-week absence, but smelling of cigarettes and alcohol, and with a rip in its lining.

Earlier this week, Markova filed papers in Manhattan’s state Supreme Court, asking for unspecified damages.

“Lindsay has always been a fixture and a party girl in his establishments and [John] does not want her to catch a cold in this frigid start to the summer,” a spokesperson for Engelbert said in a statement to Access Hollywood.

Markova also seeks an apology from Lohan, as well as compensation for repairing the coat.

The actress has apparently not apologized yet, nor has she commented on Engelbert’s generous offer.

Redskins' Chris Cooley Married Christy Oglevee

|

Chris Cooley, the Washington Redskins tight end, got married to his fiancee' Christy Oglevee this past weekend in Lansdowne, Virginia.

Cooley and Oglevee met in 2005 when another Redskin cheerleader he was seeing brought her over to his house. The secret relationship got out in the public and the two Redskins cheerleaders were kicked off of the cheerleading squad on Fan Appreciation Day.

The Redskins prohibit company employees from fraternizing with players.

Oglevee, who works as a hairstylist in Chantilly, was the only high school cheerleader in five years to make the Redskinettes. At the time, she was a student at Loudoun High School in Northern Virginia.

Cooley, affectionately known as "Captain Chaos" to fans, is one of the NFL's best tight ends. Over his four-year career, Cooley has played in two Pro Bowls.

Grammy-winning Christian singer Steven Curtis Chapman suffered an unthinkable tragedy Wednesday when his 5-year-old daughter was killed in an accident involving her brother.

Chapman's youngest daughter, Maria Sue, was hit in the driveway of her family's Franklin, Tenn., home by an SUV driven by her teenage brother, the Associated Press reports. The brother, whose name was not released, apparently did not see the girl.

Several family members witnessed the accident, according to the AP. Maria Sue later died at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, hospital spokeswoman Laurie Holloway said.

"It looks like a tragic accident," said Laura McPherson, a spokeswoman for the Tennessee Highway Patrol. No charges are expected.

"Just hours before this close knit family was celebrating the engagement of the oldest daughter Emily Chapman, and were just hours away from a graduation party marking Caleb Chapman's completion of high school. Now, they are preparing to bury a child who blew out 5 candles on a birthday cake less than 10 days ago," Chapman's manager Jim Houser wrote on a blog dedicated to Maria that was set up for condolences. "These words are unthinkable to type."

Longtime advocates of international adoption, Chapman and his wife adopted three daughters from China, including Maria, and have three biological children as well.

"After our first trip to China, my wife and I knew our lives were changing – our eyes and hearts were opening to how big God really is, and we have wanted to experience more of that," Chapman said on his Web site.

The singer also wrote a book about being a father titled Cinderella: The Love of Daddy and his Princess.

Nick Hogan Not Doing Well In Prison

|

Apparently Nick Hogan, the son of pro wrestler turned reality star Hulk Hogan, is not doing so well in prison.

Nick was sentenced to eight months in a Pinellas County jail after a drunk driving/drag racing accident that left his best friend, John Graziano, in a permanent coma.

A friend told the New York Post, "Nick's doing really bad. He's struggling to even form a sentence. They have him in a cell by himself, isolated from the general population, because of threats. He didn't understand how awful jail really is until now."

Nick is reportedly in isolation because he is the only minor in the prison. Nick will be turning 18 in the next couple of months, which means he could possibly be moved into the general population of the prison.

All of this is probably of very little consolation to the Graziano family, who claim that Hogan has done very little for their son or family since the crash.

Amy Winehouse to appear at Glastonbury

|

Amy Winehouse will perform at this year's Glastonbury Festival.

The London-based artist will perform directly before headliner Jay-Z on the Pyramid stage at the Somerset festival on June 28.

Earlier this month, the 24-year-old was told she would not face charges over video footage which appeared to show her inhaling fumes from a crack pipe.

Winehouse has since struck up a friendship with fellow singer-songwriter Pete Doherty and the pair are believed to be recording new material together.

They both recently appeared in a strange online video posted on the YouTube website, in which they both were seen talking to newborn mice.

Despite the controversy she courts, Glastonbury Festival organisers insisted the delayed announcement of Winehouse's performance was not down to "issues to do with her personal life".

A spokesman for the festival said: "She is performing on the Saturday night, she will be the last performer before Jay-Z. We just wanted to make sure her team was happy with the arrangements before she was confirmed. It wasn't due to issues to do with her personal life."

The Grammy-award winner's appearance and behaviour have sparked concerns about her wellbeing from friends and family.

Winehouse - now worth £10 million - was admitted to hospital last August after a reported overdose of heroin, Ecstasy, cocaine, ketamine and alcohol.

This year's Glastonbury Festival, held at Worthy Farm, in Pilton, will take place between June 27 and June 29.

Kristin Davis' baby wish

Kristin Davis wants to have a baby.

The 'Sex and the City: The Movie' actress is keen to find the perfect man, settle down and start a family.

She said: "I would love to have children. I would love to adopt. And I would still like to find a man and have a baby with him. I haven't given up.

"My friends have children and I love them. I'm like Auntie Kristin - I love it. I have nieces and nephews as well."

Kristin also says she can relate to the way her character in the film, Charlotte York-Goldenblatt, feels pressured to get married and have children.

She said: "I can relate to feeling the pressure society puts on a person."

However, Kristin revealed she has not yet succumbed to internet dating to find her 'Mr. Right'.

She said: "I'd have to use an alias if I did, or it might be weird when the guy meets me and he sees Charlotte sitting there! It would be very strange."

Zoe Salmon Quits Blue Peter

|

Children's TV presenter Zoe Salmon has announced that she is quitting the BBC show Blue Peter.

The 28-year-old is leaving the children's show after three-and-a-half years. Salmon, a former Miss Northern Ireland, has signed up to present a new gameshow on children's channel CBBC.

The law graduate became Blue Peter's 30th presenter when she made her debut on the 2004 Christmas show. She sparked controversy soon afterwards when she suggested on air that the Red Hand of Ulster would make a good symbol for an airline in a logo competition.

The BBC said that the the comments were not intended to be provocative or promote sectarianism but apologised for "any upset or concern".

Salmon was the first female Blue Peter presenter to run the London Marathon, has raced in a Formula One car, walked on fire, and trekked to the top of the UK's highest peaks while on the show.

Salmon said that she will always "treasure" her Blue Peter Badge.

She said: "I've loved my time on Blue Peter and I've had experiences that I never dreamed I could have. It has taken me to places I never thought I would see, and gave me the opportunity to do things I never thought I could do.

"Life on Blue Peter has been one continuous highlight. It's been an incredible privilege and honour to have been part of the fantastic team and I will always treasure my Blue Peter Badge and memories."

Blue Peter editor Tim Levell said: "Zoe has been a fantastic presenter. She has thrown herself into the challenges we have given her with 110% dedication. And children absolutely love her."

Salmon's last day on the show will be on June 25, at the end of the current series, when Gethin Jones also leaves.
