London Hippodrome gets a new licence

Wednesday, October 29th, 2008

London’s Hippodrome theatre and nightclub will get new chapter in its life, thanks to the recent approval for a license to run a casino with space designated for a cardroom for poker, at the famous building in Leicester Square.

Yet again, entertainment tastes changed and the Talk was becoming tatty. But in 1983, nightclub owner Peter Stringfellow took over the building, gave it back its name and turned the Hippodrome into “the world’s greatest discothèque”, which also went through various incarnations until 2004.

After yet another incarnation as an event space for private London parties and corporate hire, the Hippodrome is now a Grade II listed gem and has recently undergone a restoration taking it back to some of the original Matcham features. Most recently it featured La Clique, a combination burlesque, circus and variety show, with a contemporary twist.

Credit Crunch hits Paris

The last time Paris Hilton graced London with her presence, she received an estimated £70,000 in ‘appearance fees’.

Paris caused quite a stir in Movida after turning up along with  glamour model Katie “Jordan” Price. The pair were spotted dancing away in the VIP room.

A source close to the 27-year-old socialite said: ‘Paris demanded £50,000 from Paper nightclub. They were prepared to pay  -  but on the condition that she turn up twice, not go anywhere else before or after that evening, and stay for a minimum of two hours.

‘But she didn’t want to adhere to all the conditions so the night club cancelled her appearance.’

Whilst in London she has visited Whisky Mist, Kingly Club, New nightclub Jalouse and staying at the Sanderson Hotel.
‘The only club that paid her was Movida at the re-opening, and that was an estimated £25,000. Although it’s a lot of money, to Paris’s people it’s nowhere near as much as she used to be able to command.’
