Lily Allen and Agyness Deyn have close attention on the party in Dubai

. Friday, November 28, 2008

POOR Lily Allen and Agyness Deyn were expecting to have the close attention of flunkies at the world’s big-gest party in Dubai.
But they didn’t reckon on the kind of intimate attention they did receive.
They were subjected to an unsavoury, hour-long strip search on their way to the ?20million shindig at the Atlantis Resort.
Dubai Customs officials examined more than 100 guests and targeted those who have big reputations for ­partying.
Poor Lily, who has admitted to ­taking cheeky sweets since the age of 13, was left traumatised by her lengthy probing at Dubai airport.
The warbler, 23, said: “I was strip-searched, which was so nice as soon as you arrive. I knew I ­didn’t have anything on me, so I wasn’t worried. I wasn’t paranoid, just terrified.
“It took more than an hour. It was really scary as they didn’t tell you what they were doing. They just said: ‘Take off trousers’. And I was like: ‘Help’!”
Aggie and her boyfriend, Albert Hammond Jr, 29, were also poked in intimate regions to ensure they weren’t smuggling naughties into the country.
The supermodel, 25, admitted: “Both Albert and I were strip-searched. It was really traumatic.
“It wasn’t the best experience in the world. But it is their culture and you just have to respect it.”
But Rhys Ifans, 40, couldn’t even bring himself to discuss his toe-touching episode, which lasted an eye-watering two hours and included a terrifying grilling.
Organisers of the opening of the ?1billion resort were concerned that the United Arab Emirates’ strict anti-drugs policy would sour the four-day bash for their superstar guests.
So they issued everybody with leaflets before the event, warning them about the dangers of bringing in illegal substances.
Our man with the John Wayne gait said: “We were supposed to have been treated like gods, but we were treated like villains. They sent us a warning letter, but that wasn’t enough to prepare us.”
