Hollywood Hot Spot Shut Down
TMZ has confirmed the most exclusive Hollywood hot spot -- Teddy's at the Roosevelt Hotel -- has been officially closed until further notice. The nightclub has played host, week in and week out, to Hollywood's A-list celebrities. Lindsay Lohan, Cameron Diaz, Paris Hilton, Heath Ledger and Prince are just a few who frequent the very, very VIP booths.
The problems may stem from issues with the club's manager Amanda Demme, the widow of Ted Demme. Tuesday's Page Six reported the owners of the hotel are not happy with Demme. A host of alleged troubles has plagued the hotel since Demme took control including underage drinking, noise violations, mistreatment of paying hotel guests and racial discrimination. Read more
