The Lohan Clan: What a Class Act
September 19th, 2006 by MaryBeth
In the world of writing about “stars” like Lindsay Lohan nothing really hits me like a big surprise anymore. So when a report flies down the line that Lindsay and her mom, Dina, had a loud verbal brawl at an exclusive Manhattan hot-spot I just chalk it up and say, “here we go again…”
So, the story goes, Lindsay got an invite to the b-day dinner at an Upper East Side restaurant. All was well, for just a bit, but after the first course arrived, things started to get out of hand.
“When Lindsay got there, her mother and her four friends were into their second bottle of Cristal,” said a restaurantgoer. “Right after the first course, they started fighting.”
Lindsay and Dina got into a full-on screaming match ending with Lindsay telling her mom to “go to hell” while storming off like a brat, leaving the older woman in tears.
Reports say that Dina spent a good 45 minutes or so trying to get a hold of Lindsay, to no avail. Maybe all Dina’s trips to the bathroom where she’d come back “sniffing” didn’t help either, because reports say she was no better, and people witnessed….”a distraught Dina throwing fortune cookies and flipping off waiters.”
No wonder her daughter is so nasty! I bet the holiday season is going to be a blast at the Lohan house this year!
Here are the juicy details on how it all went down.
On Thursday night, Lindsay reluctantly joined Dina for Dina’s birthday celebration at Phillipe on East 60th Street.
“Lindsay got a call from her mother telling her to come to the party,” said a spy. “Lindsay didn’t want to go, because her mother was drinking already, but she went anyway.”
All was well until the first course arrived.
“When Lindsay got there, her mother and her four friends were into their second bottle of Cristal,” said a restaurantgoer. “Right after the first course, they started fighting.”
The two began cursing each other in front of other patrons in the crowded Chinese eatery, including Ryan Cabrera, Brandy and Serena Williams at nearby tables. “A mortified” Lindsay finally told her mother to “go to hell!” before she exited. After Lindsay left, Dina started “crying and shaking . . . Dina typed vigorously on her BlackBerry for 45 minutes while her friends were just sitting there, and when the birthday cake came out, she broke out crying again - even louder.”
The unhappy birthday girl - who calls herself the “white Oprah” - also made “five trips to the bathroom in 90 minutes and came back to the table sniffling each time,” said our witness.
The tired and emotional Dina was so distraught that she started “throwing fortune cookies at the waiters and flipping them off.” Finally, after four hours of partying, the $2,000 bill was paid - with no tip for the waiters, who then “had to help her out of the restaurant as it closed down for the night.”
It’s one thing to bring out your problems, but to do it publicly like this is pretty classless. Guess the drinking and extra bathroom trips don’t make for a nice family outing. And, to add salt to wounds, the Post reports…“But the worst part of the servers’ evening was apparently still to come - they didn’t get a tip on the $2,000 birthday bash tab.”
