Lindsay Lohan dodges Kettering Council after promising to turn on Christmas lights

A UK MP has urged Lindsay Lohan to contact Kettering Council and arrange her visit to turn on their Christmas lights but it’s looking more and more likely that she’s going to disappoint residents of the Northamptonshire town.

The ‘Mean Girls’ star offered to take part in the big switch on after a personal invite from local MP Philip Hollobone and Commons leader Chris Grayling.

Mr Hollobone told the BBC News yesterday: “She said she would come and switch on the Christmas lights at Kettering but, despite everyone’s best efforts, it’s simply not be possible to track her down.

"She needs to know when and where she needs to be. The message is, 'Lindsay Lohan please get in touch, your public awaits.’”

However, Lindsay - who is never far from headlines and a prolific social media user - has yet to respond.

The star’s new boyfriend recently opened a nightclub in Athens, Greece, and named it after the actress and that’s where she’s been spending a lot of her free time lately.

Lindsay was criticised by Mr Hollobone in the Houses of Parliament when she tweeted to her millions of followers that she didn’t know where Kettering is.

In response, Hollobone also invited the party girl to switch on the Christmas lights in Kettering and said she would redeem her political reputation and help to raise money for good causes.

When the offer was made, Lindsay accepted almost instantly.

She wrote: “Direct message me about your offer. Would be happy to light the Christmas tree in #Kettering.”
