Lindsay Lohan might be famous and under the harsh glare of the media spotlight at all times, but underneath it all, she's just a regular girl. And like regular girls whose Daddies didn't love them, she likes to steal to fill up the hole inside her heart. Just ask her buddy Lauren Hastings! Well, robble robble, because Lindsay is back to her hamburgling ways. According to the NY Post:
A Columbia co-ed wants to know how Lindsay Lohan ended up wearing her $11,000 blond mink coat – and is demanding the "Mean Girl" pay for the impromptu rental.
Masha Markova, 22, believed she had forever lost the prized jacket – a gift from her grandmother – while attending a private birthday party at 1Oak in the Meatpacking District in the early-morning hours of Jan. 26. At one point, she was seated next to Lohan, and recalled putting the mink in a common bin with other jackets.It was gone when she prepared to leave 1Oak after an hour, Markova said.
Two weeks later, Markova flipped through the Feb. 11 edition of OK! Magazine and couldn't believe her eyes – Lohan was photographed the night of Jan. 26 wearing the very same fur coat.
The pretty co-ed said that in the ensuing days, she surfed the Internet and found several paparazzi photos of Lohan wearing the distinctive blond coat hours after the birthday party they had both attended. Also, celebrity blogs posted pictures of the actress party-hopping that night – wearing a black coat before she arrived at 1Oak, Markova said.
Club owners vowed to get to the bottom of it, but several days passed with no call back, Markova said. That's when her immigration lawyer, Merrill Cohen, called Lohan's high-powered Hollywood attorney, Blair Berk, threatening litigation. Hours later, Markova said she heard from 1Oak.
"They were very discreet, never mentioned a name or even the word 'coat,' " Markova said. "They just said, 'We're going to bring you something.' "
The coat arrived at Markova's Morningside Heights apartment two days later. Reeking of cigarettes and booze with a slight tear in the lining, the fur coat was no worse for wear after a dry cleaning and quick patch-up.
Markova and her lawyer stopped short of accusing Lohan of wrongdoing. But they still want her to pay at least $10,000 for the unauthorized, three-week rental. Lohan's spokeswoman did not return calls.
Thanks to the sharp nose of Scooby Doo the trail of stale Marlboro reds and spilled Grey Goose led Masha right to the perp. And she would have gotten away with it too, if if weren't for your pesky immigration lawyer! And the unmatched sleuthery of the Harlem Globetrotters.
