Celebrities Get Drunk Too!

Celebrities got blotto at the GQ Men of the Year Awards.



Elle Macpherson. Guess "The Body" can only absorb so much alcohol.



Liz Hurley Before.



And: After ...



And: After that, in an embarassing "Come on, Coco. Smile, smile. Smile for me ... Now take your thumb and put it in your mouth" moment.

From Thisislondon:

"Elizabeth Hurley has perfected the art of red carpet glamour.

"But even she succumbed to the lure of the free bar at last night's star-studded GQ Men of the Year awards and left the event looking uncharacteristically worse for wear.

"The 43-year-old former actress arrived earlier looking her usual groomed to within an inch of her life self.

"However, by the time she was seen leaving the bash at the Royal Opera House, she was holding her head in her hands, and sat slightly slumped in her chauffeur driven car."


And:

"... But it was singer Lily Allen who appeared most affected by the free drink on offer.

"As the evening wore on, awards host Lily, who arrived wearing a huge designer ball gown, was seen sipping champagne on stage.

"The 23-year-old, soon began slurring, swearing and ad-libbing - and then got into a slanging match in front of the celebrity-filled audience with co-host Elton.

"When she began to announce '...the most important part of the night', Elton chipped in 'What? Are you going to have another drink?'

"To which she fired back: 'F*** off Elton. I am 40 years younger than you and have my whole life ahead of me!'

"The shocked audience fell silent. And a clearly rattled Elton replied 'I could still snort you under the table'. To which she replied: 'F*** off. I don't know what you are talking about.'

"On more than one occasion, Elton could be seen having a stern word with her in the wings between awards.

"... Later Lily left the party looking shamefaced, accompanied by a huge bodyguard, who was carrying a bottle of wine."


Taking on Elton John at a party? Lily Allen is the epitome of self-destructive youth.
