LINDSAY LOHAN - LOHAN PAID TO ATTEND BIRTHDAY BASH

LOHAN PAID TO ATTEND BIRTHDAY BASH

LINDSAY LOHAN received a present she won't forget - she was paid a staggering $70,000 (£46,000) to host her own birthday bash.
The Mean Girls star turns 23 on Thursday (02Jul09) and she made sure the day would be a profitable one by agreeing to be paid to party at the MDM Grand in Las Vegas.
The venue handed over $70,000 (£46,000) just for the actress to enjoy herself at the pool-side event last Saturday (27Jun09), according to New York gossip column PageSix.
As part of the deal, Lohan was expected to pose for snappers, and she did it in style - swapping her bathing costume five times.
But it seems the star couldn't persuade her celebrity pals to join in the money-spinning mission - her on/off girlfriend Samantha Ronson was absent from the festivities.
