Lindsay Lohan Partying in NYC, Risks Probation Violation

Lindsay Lohan recently boarded a plane back east, reportedly to spend some ‘quiet time’ with her family while she mulls over whether or not to accept a plea deal in her grand theft case after she was accused of stealing a necklace, but not too long after arriving her plans must have changed. Last night she celebrated St. Patrick’s Day at two NYC clubs, apparently having one of her last ‘hoorahs’ before her nearly-inevitable upcoming trip to the pokey. According to Page 6, Lindsay even managed to fit in a secret rendezvous with ex-girlfriend Samantha Ronson at her hotel yesterday afternoon before making out with a random guy later on that night – at the club 1-Oak. But Lohan’s decision to spend time with her friends rather than her family has apparently left her siblings and mother Dina upset that she is not taking her legal problems seriously.

A source close to Lohan added, “Her family is furious. She’s supposed to be spending time with them and deciding if she’ll take a plea deal. It’s almost as if she thinks she may as well have one last final fling.”

Prior to the make-out session, she was partying it up with Tyson Beckford and and got in the booth with DJ Phresh at a club called Simyone Lounge. Lindsay insists she wasn’t drinking and carried a water bottle all night, hitting the town with a crew including Samantha Swetra and ‘Next Models’ booker Derek Saathoff, who once boasted that she always sleeps at his place when she’s in New York.

Just because she didn’t drink at the bars last night, doesn’t mean she hasn’t been hitting the bottle again, according to Lohan’s probation report. It was claimed recently that her probation is at risk because she is drinking a fermented tea with a minuscule alcohol content. Lindsay is said to have told her probation officer that she regularly consumes Kombucha tea, which has an alcohol content of 0.5 per cent or less. Now the Los Angeles County Probation Department have added it to a list of reasons why the judge should violate her probation when she appears in court next week. Lindsay was even spotted leaving one of her alcohol education classes with a bottle of tea in hand. She is asking for trouble, period.

Lindsay has until March 25th to decide if she’ll plead guilty to allegations she stole a $2,500 necklace from a jewelry store. A plea bargain will pretty much guarantee her at least 60 days behind bars, but she may also take her chances and go to trial.

Tyson Beckford: ‘Celebs are Stealing Jobs from Models’

Tyson Beckford, a veteran male model turned reality tv show host, is hitting out at celebrities who are taking over the fashion world.

Beckford, who is currently hosting “Make Me a Supermodel,” is frustrated with celebs taking the fashion reigns from models. Magazine covers are being dominated by celebrities adorned in high clothing. They are taking the place of those who are physically gifted. Vogue, W and InStyle are just a few who prefer a celeb on the front cover as opposed to models.

Per AP:

“You have to do a lot of tweaking and airbrushing to get the same from a celebrity that you would get from a model. A lot of celebrities — I’m gonna tell you right now — they’re not 5’11″; they’re not a size 2 to fit into these designer dresses, but the designers want exposure so they’re willing to make the specific dress for that actor or actress to get them to look good on the cover.”

Currently the A-list ranks of Hollywood sell the magazines better than just a pretty face. A staple question at a red carpet event flooded with celebs is: “Who are you wearing?” Does this mean the time of the model is over? Not according to Tyson. Designers rely on the famous to market their clothing now, but the fashion world is notoriously fickle.

“It’ll all come back around. One day some designer will wake up and say, `You know what? I don’t want to use Gwyneth Paltrow. I want to use Adriana Lima, I want to use Gisele (Bundchen), I want to go back to the high fashion. I think slowly but surely you’ll see that start happening.”

Agreed. I also can’t wait until the ‘pail and frail’ trend passes. The runways are littered with gaunt models who look as though they have wandered out of Auschwitz.
