It appears that Lindsay Lohan does have some acting talent: she spoke with several magazines and feigned confusion over why photographers would be so interested in following her around on her escapades in New York,LA, and her other various haunts. In an effort to avoid the press, Lohan plans to move to London where she feels people are less judgemental. She recently posted on twitter:
“Moving to the UK is in my near future – better DJs/music, and Paris is just a chunnel away!”
The middle of the week – or as the our New York cousins like to call it, ‘Hump Day’ – will never be the same again as one of the top VIP nightclubs in London, Vendome – based on Piccadilly in Mayfair, launches Vendome Wednesday this week.
There will be live music from former Libertine and Babyshambles frontman Pete Doherty (the ex-boyfriend of model Kate Moss) and no stranger to rehab. Clubbers can also expect the best tracks from the London club chart from top DJs Kitt Proudfoot, Ollie Collins and Rich Stone.
If that wasn’t enough, there will be complimentary cocktails all night courtesy of Belvedere IX super premium vodka and no doubt plenty of bottles of fine champagne from the bar being popped and poured.
Girls Aloud singer and notorious hellraiser Sarah Harding – who is never out of the celebrity gossip magazines – is launching her own London club with the assistance of one of London’s top promoters.

Peter Andre let his hair down on Tuesday night enjoying the famous London nightlife when he went for dinner at a London restaurant, with pals Chantelle Houghton and pregnant Nicola McLean, before visiting the Funky Buddha Club in Mayfair.

Last Wednesday, the relaunch of LondonVIP club Chinawhite on Winsley Street in Soho proved memorable for many – including Prince Harry, who watched ex-love Chelsy Davy get too close for comfort to renowned playboy Hugo Taylor after the pair enjoyed a few glasses of Champagne together.
Celebrity gossips claim that word got back to Harry that Hugo made a play for his former girlfriend at the relaunch of the London night club and the young prince – third in line to the throne – was furious at the news…
A source said: “Hugo had told a number of pals that he’s got his eye on Chelsy, and as they are all in the same circle of friends it got straight back to Harry.”
Hugo, known as ‘Fagin’ by friends, is a new club promoter for Chinawhite – alongside Forbidden London Clubs of course – and has been linked to Princess Eugenie and model Saskia Boxford.
Chelsy and Harry met in 2004 and were together for five years. They split at the beginning of this year and have been linked with a number of other people – namely, for Harry, TV presenter Caroline Flack – but finally sorted out their differences and got back together last month.
Despite seeing other women, the prince was apparently “gutted” when Chelsy called off their romance. The course of true love never did run smoothly…

Celebrity gossips have whispered that Chelsea and England footballer Frank Lampard is smitten with 2008’s Strictly Come Dancing contestant and TV Presenter Christine Bleakley after flirting with her in at Amika nightclub in Kensington, London, last Saturday.
Frank and Christine arrived with a group of people from Strictly Come Dancing including Zoe Lucker and Joe Calzaghe and the dancers Aliona Vilani and Nicole Cutler. They all sat together at a table in the VIP area with Frank next to Christine.
Frank reportedly bought at least three bottles of fine Champagne – possibly Cristal or Dom Perignon – from the bar for the group even though he hardly drank himself.
The couple stayed for a lock-in until 4.30am, but it’s not known if they left in a limousine, London taxi or Mr Lampard’s motor together or if the England midfielder scored. Bleakley, 29, was reportedly first wooed by the Premiership footballer in September at the Pride Of Britain awards.
A Playboy fraudster who spent a night splurging £140,000 on Champagne at top London night clubAmika in Kensington has been jailed for scamming credit card companies out of £1.6m in the pursuit of a luxury lifestyle.

In the early hours of last Monday morning the celeb sports star, 37, was seen sneaking out of top London VIP clubNo 5 Cavendish Square in the London Regent Street after cosying up to a mystery brunette.
He gave a greeting to the waiting photographers that some may think would be rude, and he was even wearing the same clothing he was seen in when he kissed Kristina, 32, on BBC2 spin-off show It Takes Two. The pictures are now all over the London papers… oh dear!
The pair were booted off the dance competition more than a week ago but are thought to be dating.
Last night a spokesman for the – now retired – undefeated World Champion boxer said: “Joe’s a single guy letting his hair down.”
The team behind London celebrity VIP hangouts Mahiki, Whiskey Mist and The Punch Bowl pub in Mayfair is to open a new bar in the City of London next month.
Kanaloa, the latest venture by Nick House and Piers Adam, aims to break the mould of the male-dominated Square Mile by specifically targeting women. There will be several female-friendly house rules including; free entry for women, complimentary manicures, massages and makeovers. Kanaloa has been given a tropical island-inspired theme, with a long black bamboo bar surrounded by carved wooden pillars as a centre-piece.
The Champagne and cocktails list has been overseen by Papa Jules – the creator of the signature Mahiki rum – while best UK bartender in 2008, Rich Hunt, has been recruited as bar manager. The food will be Pan-Asian inspired.
Nick House said: “Piers and I have both worked in the City and we felt there was a real need to create a sense of escapism and fun in an area that historically hasn’t had the benefit of high quality bars and night clubs.”
