Star supper dates offered on site

You could hire Tamara Beckwith to come for dinner

A website is offering people the opportunity to have a celebrity come round to their home for dinner.

For £300, a famous person can be hired to turn up and provide entertainment for homeowners having a party.

Anyone hoping to book the likes of Julia Roberts or Brad Pitt however, may be disappointed.

The London-based Supper With The Stars site can offer well known faces like Syd Little, Tamara Beckwith, The Hamiltons or celebrity dog Schnorbitz.

Prices go up to £5,000, depending on the celebrity and how long they stay at a party.

EastEnders inspiration

The site also gives a guide to if they are good talkers, whether they like after-dinner party games and even if they have a fatal nut allergy.

Louisa Loney, 25, runs the company from her home in Loughton, east London.

She said: "I came up with the idea when I went to a party and an old EastEnders star was there and everyone was chatting to him.

"I thought it would be good to be able to get novelty stars for their party. I have had a lot of interest but its only been going for three weeks."
