Lindsay Lohan, who we learned earlier today is featured in the February issue of Interview magazine, spent some time in SoCal yesterday doing a bit of shopping … alone. After spending pretty much every waking moment together for the past few months, it’s a bit surprising to see Linds spend so much time away from her girlfriend Samantha Ronson … which, of course, fuels the fires of speculation concerning the status of their relationship. Here are a couple pics of Lindsay engaging in a bit of retail shopping all by her lonesome yesterday afternoon:

Now, just because she is shopping alone there is no cause to jump to conclusions … but, again, the girls have been virtually inseparable for so long now … mebbe this is a bit telling? At the very least, mebbe they’re just enjoying some space? Who knows. Later on in the day, tho, Linds and her sister Ali Lohan were seen making their way out of Samantha’s home with Sam coming out after. After the jump, watch a short video clip of Lindsay, once again, denying that L. Ron have broken up … (more…)

In the span of just a few hours yesterday afternoon rumors began to spread like wildfire that claimed that Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson broke off their relationship after suffering an epic fight on New Year’s Eve. Basing their claims on reports that the ladies were seen arguing on NYE in addition to Lindsay sightings in SoCal since NYE NOT in the company of Samantha have fueled these reports (TMZ reports simply, “TMZ has it down solid — Lindsay and Sam Ronson are officially history.”). Lindsay took to her trusty blog on her official My Space page to denounce these claims and insists that L. Ron are still very much together as a couple. Here is Lindsay’s response in full, taken from her My Space blog:

:) xoxox Lindsay

And there you have it … to me, it seems like so many of these other sites are chomping at the bit for these two to break-up so they can make a bigger story out of it. I, for one, love that they are together, hope that they continue to stay together and remain happily attached to one another. Let’s face it, the ladies have been joined at the hip for most of last year (only spending very short periods of time apart). It’s only natural that they would fight and argue from time to time. I don’t necessarily consider arguing in public as a sign of dunzoness. I’m happy to hear, straight from the horse’s mouth, that L. Ron are still together, hopefully going strong. Tho, in all honesty, I don’t expect it’ll be very long until the reports of a break-up start to make the rounds again.

Contrary to reports of discord between the two of them, Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson appear to be back on solid track these days as the ladies were spied doing a bit of Xmas shopping together this week. Despite the fact that some are claiming that L. Ron are on the verge of break-up, it seems a completely different story when you see pics of the couple happily shopping together on Xmas Eve:

L. Ron spent part of their Xmas Eve day shopping at Diesel, Kid Robot and Rite Aid Pharmacy … prolly picking up last minute Xmas gifts and stocking stuffers but also most likey picking up supplies for the coming New Year’s Eve celebration:

Sam was carting around party hats in her Rite Aid basket … or mebbe they’re mixing bowls, it’s hard to tell. In either case, it appears that the ladies were happily bizzy gathering materials to spend the holidays together rather than apart. It makes me so happy to know that L. Ron are still going strong … and I hope that they will spend a happy 2009 and beyond in loving bliss together! They are deffo my fave new couple of 2008.

Despite claims to the contrary, Lindsay Lohan has posted a message on her official Facebook profile to deny reports that she and Samantha Ronson have broken up. Additionally, the happy couple (despite how they look in these pics) were spotted out and about together as they made their way to the Echo nightclub in LA over the weekend:

This from her Facebook profile:

not breaking up

tabloids and people tell lies- they always wanna see everything and anything
good come to an end. duh

Additionally, Lindsay has uploaded a bunch of new photos to her official My Space profile, including quite a few new pics of L. Ron together:

It sounds and looks like they happy couple are still very happy together. I, for one, am relieved to hear Lindsay refute these claims. L. Ron are my fave new couple of 2008 … I am looking forward to seeing them happily together well into the new year and beyond!

Lindsay Lohan, Mischa Barton, Mary-Kate Olsen and about 1,997 other celebs made their way out to Dubai, United Arab Emirates for the official launch extravaganza for the new £1 billion luxury resort the Atlantis Palm on Palm Jumeirah Island earlier this week. The party itself cost £20 million and it really showed. Here are a few pics of some of the red carpet arrivals from the Atlantis Palm launch party and some deets on the party itself:

The credit crunch may be biting … but there was little sign of parsimony in Dubai [Thursday] night. The world’s rich and famous gathered for the most expensive private party ever thrown - costing some £20 million - to open Atlantis Palm Jumeirah, a £1 billion resort on a man-made island shaped like a palm tree in the Persian Gulf. Two thousand film stars, popstars, supermodels and billionaires were flown in from around the world for the all-expenses paid one-night party with many of them staying for four days. The highlight last night was a one-off gig by Kylie Minogue and her 113-strong dance troupe on the beach. Apart from getting a free holiday, Miss Minogue was also paid £1.5million for a 10-song 45-minute medley of her hits – which works out at some £33,333 a minute …

They were no ordinary fireworks of course – each one being a radio-controlled 27-inch shell with an on-board microcomputer to direct its flight. The display, which was visible from space, was also filmed by a squadron of helicopters hovering at 12,000ft and beamed on giant TV HD screens on the beach. Miss Minogue, 40, arrived at the lavish party dressed in a pink and black floral chiffon gown with flowing train and her blonde hair in a curly short hairdo. Speaking on Sky News, just two hours before she was due to go on stage, an excited Kylie said: “It’s staggering. I guess more is more here and they have done a great job. My room’s very nice. It’s a different set list to the tour I’m doing at the moment. It’s an edited show especially for tonight.” The 40-year-old star remained tight-lipped about how much she was earning for her set, she said: “I can’t tell you how much pocket money I get, it goes straight in my piggy bank.” Speaking about the hotel’s potential, she added: “I think there’s a lot of people who love this kind of thing you get sun and everything you could wish for. My crew and dancers have been having a great time.” Guests included filmstars such as Robert De Niro, Charlize Theron, Denzil Washington, Mischa Barton and Lindsay Lohan, supermodels Agyness Deyn, Petra Nemcova and Yasmin Le Bon, musicans Janet Jackson, Lily Allen and Shirley Bassey, sports legends like Michael Jordan and Boris Becker and some local royalty - the Royal Family of Dubai … Oprah Winfrey bagged the most exclusive £25,000-a-night suite high up on a bridge suspended between the resort’s two towers. Yet when she pulled out, the scramble for the suite was eventually won a man many Britons may have never heard of – Shahrukh Khan – who is apparently the ‘Tom Cruise of Bollywood’ and as such the most famous filmstar in Middle East. Robert De Niro – a partner in the Nobu restaurant chain which has a site in the resort - had to make do with a £15,000 presidential suite. That left filmstars Lindsay Lohan and Charlize Theron with £10,000 a night Lost Chambers suites submerged alongside one of the world’s largest aquariums in the depths of the Atlantis resort, each with a truly jaw-dropping bedroom view of 65,000 sharks, rays and fish. No one paid for an air ticket to get there. The travel bill alone was estimated to be £3 million. Yesterday, the starry crowd spent the day riding camels, stroking dolphins and trying out the resort’s giant waterpark. A cocktail reception last night was followed by dinner on the beach, Miss Minogue’s show and they the fireworks. Though Dubai is mainly a ‘dry’ country, there was not much evidence of that at the soiree with some 1,000 bottles of Veuvre Cliquot champagne being thrown back. All of that drink was presumably needed to wash down the 1.7 metric tonnes of lobster that was eaten, 4,000 oysters, 3,000 kilos of smoked salmon and 5,000 portions of the best sushi – all prepared by 500 chefs and served by 1,000 waiters.

Ye gods! Talk about excess. It never ceases to amaze me how economic strain can take its toll on so many people thruout the world and, yet, celebs never seem to feel the pinch. Forget the millions of starving and dying people suffering each and every day, the rich and powerful live extravagant lives that most people can’t even dream of. It really sounds like a spectacular event but the amount of excess is pretty staggering. I’m not hating, I’m just … boggled. Yeah.

Lindsay Lohan, who confesses to Harper’s Bazaar magazine this month that she is INDEED in a relationship with Samantha Ronson, has made her way to London, England this week and happened to bring along with her, you guessed it, Samantha Ronson. The ladies who have been inseparable since, like, forever managed to cause a mild stir upon arrival in England … here are a few pics:

Almost as soon as L. Ron touched down in Londontown they hit the streets in search of supplies to get themselves situated … and they happened to do so lookin’ adorably cute together all the while. No word on what brings the happy couple to London but I predict that Linds may be doing some promo work for her new leggings line while they are in Europe. Hopefully the ladies will be able to sneak in some alone-time together as well. Treat ‘em well, London!
