The Tiger Woods sex scandal has created a new interest in hotels where stars meet to cheat.
(Las Vegas Singles | Inside SoCal)
Tiger Woods is currently the most famous cheater in the world, but he's far from the only celebrity to get a little on the side. Google "celebrity sex scandals" and you'll get almost 2 million results. It's so common that some travel sites rate hotels by the famous sex scandals that have taken place there.
The Oyster Hotel Reviews blog just posted a list of "hotel love nests" favored by Woods and "other cheating celebs." Woods' trail of shame leads from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas out to the W in San Diego, down under to the Crowne Towers in Melbourne, Australia, and back to the Turning Stone Resort and Casino in Verona, New York. (And those are just of few of Tiger's dens.)
For your holiday travel amusement, here are a half-dozen of the hotels that made the grade across the Web as the best places to get caught with your pants down:
The Four Seasons, New York City ($861 a night): Kate Hudson's Yankee superstar boyfriend Alex Rodriguez is rumored to have "entertained" high-priced prostitutes at the posh Four Seasons. These "dates" reportedly were furnished by Kristin Davis, the favorite madam of cheating former New York governor Eliot Spitzer.
Gramercy Park Hotel, New York City ($513 a night): This hotel may win a prize for being featured in the greatest number of rumors about celeb hookups, illicit and otherwise. Paparazzi park nearby just hoping to get a money shot at the Rose Bar. Hottest hookup rumor: Jennifer Aniston and ex-husband Brad Pitt, June 2009, Roof Club. (A hotel spokesperson denied it.) Other trysts: Lance Armstrong and Ashley Olson; Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson.
The Carlyle, New York City, ($375 a night): Celebrities love this hotel -- and paparazzi hate it -- because photos aren't allowed anywhere, not even in the restaurant. The Carlye is mentioned in a ton of tabloid rumors, but you can't prove a thing. John F. Kennedy and Marilyn Monroe reportedly favored the Carlyle for rendezvous; years later, one of Princess Diana's biographies said she and JFK Jr. had a one-night stand there. Woody Allen still plays clarinet there every Monday night with his band; that's not a sex scandal, but we had to mention him because he married his common-law stepdaughter. Ew.
The Beverly Hilton, Beverly Hills/Bel Air ($302 a night): Presidential hopeful John Edwards' career ended when the National Enquirer caught him visiting mistress Rielle Hunter and their alleged love child at the Beverly Hilton. There had been earlier trysts, at hotels such as the Loews Regency in New York, but photographs of this meeting did him in. The sting that nabbed notorious Hollywood madam Heidi Fleiss took place at the Beverly Hilton, where an agent posing as a Honolulu businessman met her to arrange details of "entertainment" for Japanese clients (see People article).
Chateau Marmont, West Hollywood ($471 a night): Shortly after Robert Pattinson swore to Vanity Fair that he and "Twilight" co-star Kristen Stewart are "just friends," Us Weekly reported that the two spent the night together at the Marmont. Jessica Simpson hooked up with Adam Levine there while she was still married to Nick Lachey, according to US Weekly. The hotel's rep has been bad to the bone since long before John Belushi died there of a drug overdose. Columbia Pictures founder Harry Cohn said in 1939: "If you must get into trouble, do it at the Chateau Marmont." And they still do.
Soho Grand Hotel, New York City ($324 a night): When Pete Wentz and Michelle Trachtenberg were still together, the Fall Out Boy bassist and Ashlee Simpson were getting their cheat on at the Soho Grand. Wentz later said on the Howard Stern Show: “I’m looking in the mirrors, thinking, ‘Oh my God, you are sleeping with the girl of your dreams, and you can watch yourself!’” But forgetting that for a minute (we wish we could), a hotel employee once told a local blogger (who told Gawker) that Lindsay Lohan got into a huge fight with then-boyfriend Calum Best and ran around the hotel in her underwear after he locked her out of their room. Throughout their stay, the employee said, Best was hitting on the front desk clerk.
Bon voyage!
