Sometimes don’t you wish there was a principal who could suspend Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton?
The high-school catfight between the two international celebrities escalated Friday at a private Prince concert — with Sean (Diddy) Combs in a cameo role.
Jay-Z, Beyoncé, Jade Jagger, Petra Nemcova and Brian Grazer were among the other VIPs who squeezed into the club Butter’s main room for an impromptu jam by the fastidious funkster. But Lohan couldn’t keep her mind on His Purpleness when she spotted Hilton.
As you know, Hilton, 25, has been hissing at Lohan, 19, since she found out the "Prairie Home Companion" actress has been hanging out with the hotel heiress’ ex Stavros Niarchos. The poison became more concentrated when Paris laughed at Brandon Davis‘ lewd taunt at Lohan at an L.A. club. (Despite his apology to Lohan, the oil heir wore a "Team Firecrotch" T-shirt last week before he checked into rehab.)
"Lindsay followed Paris to the bathroom," a witness tells us. "They had a huge fight."
After having words, Lohan returned to her table to find that hip-hop mogul Diddy had been seated with her group. She kidded with him, asking what he was doing at her table.
"He didn’t realize she was joking," says a source, "and he then yelled at her and told her to get out."
Diddy "was really mean to her," says another source, who claims one of Puffy’s bodyguards lifted up Lindsay, and the rapper himself got into a scuffle with a Lohan pal who defended her.
Bouncers eventually "moved Lindsay out of the booth," says a source. Outside, Lohan vented to Butter owners Scott Sartiano and Richie Akiva, allegedly demanding Diddy be ejected.
Lohan’s posse moved on to Aer and then to Bungalow 8, where, according to a source, "Paris was at one table and Lindsay at another. There was kind of a standoff who was going to leave first."
Reps for Combs and Lohan had no immediate comment. Hilton’s rep, Elliot Mintz, denied Hilton was at Bungalow but confirmed that "Paris was in the [Butter] ladies room applying her makeup when Lindsay knocked on the door. But there was no battle. Paris has nothing negative to say about Lindsay."
Well, that’s refreshing.
