Lohan to replace Spears as party hostess

Lindsay Lohan is to replace one-time party pal Britney Spears as the host of a Scandinavian Style Mansion gala in Los Angeles next week, according to reports.

Spears was asked to host the event by Danish businessman Claus Hjelmbak, but he rescinded the invitation last month after the bipolar pop star was admitted to hospital after an intervention with her psychologist.
