Lindsay Lohan reportedly asked a Canadian financier to buy her a gift at an auction on Wednesday (08.02.12). The 'Mean Girls' actress was attending the amfAR benefit for AIDS research at the Cipriani Wall Street in New York when she began talking to the wealthy man, before sending over an assistant to ask if he would mind gifting her a Hublot diamond watch with a white alligator strap - but he simply laughed in response.

A source told the New York Post newspaper: "There were items being auctioned for $20,000. After chatting with the businessman, Lindsay sent over an assistant, who said, 'Lindsay would very much like it if you'd bit on this item as a gift. He just cracked up."

A total of $1.4 million was raised at the event, which was hosted by 'Sex and the City' star Sarah Jessica Parker, and Lindsay was overheard telling guests she was the gala because of her role playing Dame Elizabeth Taylor - herself a major donor to amfAR - in a new Lifetime movie.

After the auction, the 25-year-old star attended the after-party at nightclub Double Seven with her mother Dina Lohan, who was seen having a good time with friends.

And has sent all of their kids to college and paid off the mortgage of their summer houses and bought them all new cars! Funny how she doesn't have any of those things herself, huh?

Let's be blunt: Lindsay Lohan has been a mess that past few years. We're glad to see her finally getting back on her feet and making good on her promise to clean up her act, but it doesn't change the fact that we've seen her more times in an orange jumper than we have at movie premieres. Considering that fact and the fact that we're all still in a hard economic time, we began to wonder just how much money LiLo has spent on her lawyers over the last say, oh let's go with five years. In the opinion of attorney Vikki Ziegler, she may have blown through her ENTIRE Playboy salary — and then some! According to the lawyer:

The way Ms. Ziegler explains it, since Lindsay's legal woes are essentially ongoing, she probably had to pay an upfront retainer BEFORE being charged the lawyers hourly rate. The retainer itself could be anyway upwards of $50K and if that is the case, than judging by the amount of times Lindsay has been sentenced to jail, she's already paid $250,000 in legal fees! That's without even going to court! And where did she come by this money? She didn't have this Playboy check a year ago or two years ago? Where did all this cash flow in from???

Last week, Lohan moved from her Venice Beach, Calif., home into the hipster West Hollywood hotel that she had also called home several years earlier. And on Friday night, she looked thrilled during her first weekend in her new -- yet very recognizable -- digs.

Arriving just after 9 p.m. to the Chateau's outdoor patio restaurant from her nearby room, Lohan settled into her favorite corner banquette with pal Courtenay Semel, a source told Wonderwall. The two were constantly chatting, smoking cigarettes, checking their phones and joking with male servers and bartenders. Lohan later joined a group of friends in the center of the tented patio to sing "Happy Birthday" to one of the guests.

"She looked really happy to be there," relayed a source, who added that LiLo was decked out in a flowy backless dress with platform sandals. "She was being social and said hi to several people who passed by her table. She was definitely in a great mood."

It seemed the only hitch in her evening came when Lohan saw a flash come from a nearby table. She quickly sent Semel to the table where the flash had originated to ask the hotel guest to delete the pic. Turns out the snap-happy reveler in question was taking a picture of an empty chair to send to their friend who was late, our source confirmed.

"She's just being very careful about who sees her and what she's doing," continued our source, who said it appeared Lohan was drinking water, though a male server stopped by her table many times throughout the night, even sitting at the banquette for several minutes. She also chatted with a CAA agent, Janice Dickinson and celebrity blogger Jared Eng of Just Jared. Also dining nearby was actor Topher Grace.

According to sources, Lohan is telling pals that an "artist" friend of hers booked and paid for a room at Chateau for an entire year and that the pal is letting Lohan crash there as long as she wants. No word on who the mystery pal is, but one thing is certain: That's one very generous friend.

Staying at Chateau isn't cheap. And while Lohan pocketed her biggest payday in years for posing nude in the December pages of Playboy -- a reported $1 million -- that money wouldn't go far staying in the hotel's expensive suites or bungalows. Rooms start at $435 per night, but it's likely that Lohan is currently living in a suite (like she did before) or one of the hotel's sought-after bungalows. Suites start at $760 per night, and bungalows can run north of $2,200 a night.

The 26 year-old moved to the infamous party lodge the Chateau Marmont following a trespasser at her property and one ex-neighbour revealed it could not have happened soon enough. A neighbour told Radar Online: "Everyone is ecstatic that she moved"

"Since she moved here it's been a complete circus with a revolving door of friends in and out of her house and paparazzi camped out permanently. Everyone was so sick of her and her constant attention seeking and mess ups."

One even went so far as to hope that the 25 year-old, who has had numerous run-ins with the law was put back behind bars. They revealed: “Seriously, every time we heard a siren we hoped and prayed it was the police carting her off again and we would be left in peace.”

The ‘Mean Girls’ star has already made herself comfortable at her new home and is enjoying the party atmosphere at the Hollywood haunt. According to RadarOnline, the supposedly clean actress appeared under the influence while partying with friends though she only sipped water all night.

Looks like Lindsay Lohan is on the move – if that massive removal truck outside her home is anything to go by. On New Year’s Day a man was arrested outside the Venice Beach pad after he knocked on her door and told her he needed to speak to her.

She communicated with him through the door and told him she wanted him to leave. He refused and she called the police, who arrested him for trespassing. It looks like the scare was enough to put Lindsay off staying in the house altogether though. TMZ.com claims her belongings are being put into storage until she finds a new home.

The website also reckons she could be considering moving to New York City once her probation is finished in March, but in the meantime she’s staying at the Chateau Marmont – which must be awful for her. Li-Lo hasn’t had much luck with security at the house. In May she got a restraining order against David Cocordan who stalked the star for two years.

Things came to a frightening head when he called at her home three times last May and she received a sex test. She told a court: “I am afraid this text message shows that Mr Cocordan intends to sexually assault me.”

The judge agreed and ordered the stalker to have no communication and to stay away from Lindsay. It is believed Cocordan is schizophrenic and suffers from other mental health issues. Lindsay – who recently stripped off for Playboy – had been hoping to put the strain of last year behind her and is keen to get her waning career back on track after years of court trouble herself.

Lindsay Lohan claims that she acted in self defense when she allegedly grabbed and twisted the wrist of a Betty Ford Clinic worker back in December of 2010. She's being sued by the worker who claims that she was assaulted by the troubled celeb. Dawn Bradley alleges she was attacked by LiLo while trying to administer a breathalyzer test. Why doesn't that sound surprising?

It's silly that Lindsay Lohan is trying to claim self defense in this. Her problems are well documented as are reports of her being violent since then. During Fashion Week she was a hot mess and was rumored to have hit a fellow party goer in the face, resulting in a glass being broken and an ambulance being called.

Dawn Bradley is more than likely telling the truth and Lindsay is being her normal skeevy self, trying to get out of her responsibilities. Nothing is ever her fault, remember? It's apparent that Lindsay Lohan will probably never learn how to function like a normal, contributing member of this society, so here's to hoping her pocketbook funds plenty of government services. She's certainly paid the courts enough, instead of simply just staying out of trouble.
