Lindsay's mink coat mystery
|
This is a tad weird. An angry clubber is accusing Lindsay Lohan of, ahem, borrowing her £5,000 mink coat without asking.
Student Masha Markova claims she lost the pricey item of clothing, given to her by her grandmother, at New York's 1 Oak club, during a private birthday party which Lohan also reportedly attended.
But later, devastated Masha was trying to console herself by flicking through a celebrity magazine and saw what appeared to be her coat wrapped round the shoulders of none other than… Lindsay herself!
"I was actually talking on the phone to my grandmother about something else, and then I flipped through a magazine, saw the picture and said, 'I need to call you back'," the 22-year-old explained.
After her lawyer allegedly had a word with Lindsay's, the club phoned her up. "They were very discreet, never mentioned a name or even the word 'coat,'" she said. "They just said, 'We're going to bring you something.' "
And they did: two days later the mystery garment was back. While Miss Markova isn't saying Lindsay took it deliberately, she does want an explanation – and £5,000 for three days' coat rent.
In other Lindsay news, her mum Dina has been honoured with a mothering award for raising a celebrity child. A spokesperson for Minglingmoms.com, who are handing out the gongs, said defensively: "We're just honouring celebrity moms on Long Island. It's something for Mother's Day. It's a list of mothers from Long Island who have raised superstar children."
The website honoured Jennifer Lopez, who has been a mother for a mere two and a half months, with the Celebrity Mom of the Year prize. Fair enough – we haven't seen her babies leaving nightclubs with other people's mink coats yet.
