Les Deux: Lindsay Didn't Booze at Our Bar!

Posted May 30th 2007 1:37PM by TMZ Staff

Lohan TMZ has received an exclusive statement from one of the owners of Les Deux, the Hollywood nightclub where TMZ cameras caught Lindsay Lohan hanging out just hours before her DUI bust.:

"Les Deux is a restaurant, open five nights a week, and there is no age limit for our patrons. Lindsay had dinner at Les Deux that night and waited for friends to pack up the DJ supplies, thus leaving Les Deux after closing. Because of the enormous paparazzi presence outside of Les Deux that night, we allowed her to stay late and wait for her friends. She was not drinking at Les Deux, and left driven by her driver."

UPDATE: Les Deux has also issued a response to TMZ's story that the ABC (Alcohol Beverage Control) is investigating into Lohan's DUI:

"We have and will continue to work closely with the ABC to make sure alcohol is consumed by responsible people of the legal drinking age, in a responsible manner."

31. With "Boogie" from Big Brother as one of the owners of this place, I have no doubt in my mind that they are lying.

32. Lindsay Lohan is a disgusting piece of crap. What's with Maxim including this trashy drunk anywhere on a most sexy list? What's sexy about a boozy, sloshed-up trainwreck. There's a reason Lindsay is box-office poison for any movie she is in, and it's because drunken sluts are not sexy or appealing in any way, shape, or form, Maxim. Maybe Maxim should name Jane Fonda and Felicity Huffman on that most sexy list, after all, if not for them, NO ONE would have gone to see Georgia Rule - Lindsay's age group stayed away. Now if Lindsay (and her trashy mother) would just GO away!

34. Shabby... No I have never seen Scarface. But Yeyo also means cocaine. If you dont know now you know. Usually used by blacks and mexicans and whites and asians and whoever else uses cocaine.....

35. Since when does a "restaurant" open at 10 pm at night! When you do a online search of this place it's listed under "Bars/Clubs". It's places like this that keep the local rehabs full of underage actresses and actors!

36. translated: business as usual at Les Deux

I doubt they'll get busted and obviously, so do they. It would take an insider willing to spill the truth to get the place shut down. What's that going to take? Oh, probably a death. (then again, maybe not even *that*.)
***Houston to L.A. : You have a problem. YOU fix it.***
I'm just so glad I don't live there.

(but thanks, TMZ, for the update)

37. sounds reasonable to me. If she were drinking there would be pictures, everybody has a camera phone these days. She need drug treatment for sure.

41. Their own website calls Les Deux a "lounge" and the "hottest and most glamorous club" This is not how you sell food people, this is how you sell night life and alcohol. And what do you want to bet they card at the door? At least for most underage people...

This: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v494/LuluBellanova/lesdeux.jpg

is their webpage. How much you wanna bet they change the wording on that REAL soon?

42. I'm with DALLAS COWBOYS ROCK! (#19). The minute that anyone gets injured by a DRUNK/HIGH "celeb" like Lohan, I hope that they check out sites like TMZ for the pics, find out where they were, then add those dumba$$e$ who are serving minors to ALL lawsuits!

Since these establishments looooooooooove to have celebs in their place partying it up, regardless of them being 21 or not, then they need to be held responsible as well.

This is total CYA! That is all they are trying to do. I hope that ABC watches these scumbags
closely. If they think it's sooo damn wonderful to have these KIDS!!! YES, KIDS!!! Partying til all hours of the early morning, then getting behind the wheel & potentially hurting/killing someone they need to be held accountable. Gee, what's that? Accountable for my actions or lack of action? In Hollywood, yeah, that will be the day!!!

If the ABC were smart, they'd see who's been photgraphed frequenting these places. I just don't get how they get away with it. Many years ago I worked in a liquor store & if anyone EVER sold or gave alcohol to a minor the licence was suspended & big fines had
to be paid. I bet you if the ABC really cracked down on these places 2 things would happen...the government would probably no longer be in debt & places like Les Deux have to close their doors. These morons are making money ILLEGALLY. Get it? It's illegal to provide minors with alcohol.

ABC, do the right thing! Close these places down! Just cause they have a "celeb" clientele, it does NOT put them above the law. It is time the ABC did the job they were created for. If they are willing to do "under-aged sting operations" in other part of the country, they should have ZERO problem with doing the same in Hollywood! I don't give a rat's a$$ how much money they'd loose. We are talking about kids driving drunk! And to a 20 YEAR OLD who is in rehab for the SECOND time in LESS than a year!!!!!

Lastly, I have to agree WTF is up with Maxim???!!!! Do you honestly believe she is the hottest thing around?!!! GAAAAAAAAAAAG!!!! And doesn't the timing just suck for them? LL is declared Maxim hottest only to crash her car, appear in a drunken stupor, & then run off
to hide in rehab LESS then 2 weeks later!!! Great choice Maxim. Would have been much smarter if you would have stuck with Eva Longoria, Jessica Alba, Scarlett Johansson, Christina Aguilera, Jessica Biel or any of the others you felt deserved to be ranked lower than this drunken coke whore.

Maxim, the magazine of drunk/high underaged girls everywhere!!!! Weeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

43. Age limit, to drink to eat, what? Sound like double speak to me. What is the minimum drinking age in CA? If you are old enough to wrap your lips around a bottle and tip it upright you can drink? I suspect Ms. Lohan has been boozing and drugging for years, along with the other no talent miscreants!
