New Yorker Ray LeMoine hit Paris Hilton’s younger brother early Friday after the 24-year-old refused to leave the ritzy house on Star Island in Miami that Lemoine had rented, say our sources.
Reports that Lindsay Lohan ordered the beating are “utter bulls—,” we are told. Lohan was one of a group of friends staying at the house.
There were a bunch of kids at the house, when Ray got back from a party, who weren’t meant to be staying there. They had all been up all night drinking and Barron was one of them,” says one source.
LeMoine asked the group to leave and Hilton took exception to it, says the source, asking LeMoine, “Don’t you know who I am? Do you know who my sister is?”
“Barron just snapped at Ray and started pushing him and shouting at him, and that’s when Ray hit him,” says our source.
TMZ.com reported Barron Hilton filed a police report after the attack, claiming he was first approached by Lohan, who accused him of trash-talking about her boyfriend and as payback ordered a beatdown on Hilton.
“This was not an organized operation and had zero to do with Lohan. It is more about someone who was drunk being a d—,” says our source.
Hilton didn’t rush to report the incident to the cops either. We are told that after being punched, he returned to the house and opened a bottle of Jameson and continued drinking for the next three hours.
Paris and Nicky Hilton attending an event in Miami on Friday. Their brother Barron was reportedly jumped at a Miami mansion on the same night.
“He then posts a picture to his Instagram that looks worse than what it was because he had sunglasses on at the time of the punch, and he leaks details to TMZ,” says our source.
When we reached LeMoine last night he was in the Florida Keys trying to arrange transportation to Cuba. “I’m scared of the Hiltons and Paris’ Cash Money crew [she has a recording deal with the company], so I am seeking refuge in Cuba,” he claimed. “Castro hates the Hiltons and took their Havana hotel in 1959 as a base after conquering Cuba, so they are stoked I’m coming down to hate capitalism. Viva la Lohan!”
LeMoine has been a fixture on New York’s downtown scene and used to co-own East Village hotspot Heathers, which was recently shuttered. Friends of LeMoine say he plans to open a new bar next door to the old Heathers. “After this he may even name it Le Barron Hilton,” joked one pal.
Prince is well known for his bizarre diva-esque rules, but what happens when you break them? A Confidenti@l reader recently went to Prince’s home and tells us the artist’s minions informed him, “Do not shake Prince’s hand. Prince does not like shaking hands with people,” and “Do not reference any other musicians in passing conversation whatsoever.” However, our source isn’t one to follow the rules, and insisted on shaking the “Purple Rain” singer’s hand.
“Prince was completely appalled and irritated by this,” our tipster tells us. Prince’s staff was made aware of his displeasure and they in turn called our snitch, banning him from ever attending a gathering at Prince’s house.
We are also informed that Prince refuses to wear his couture outfits more than once and that they must be shipped to a storage facility in Minneapolis after the single wearing. We think Prince needs to take a chill pill.
