The global launch of Purple Lounge , the celebrity on line poker and life style site, took place last night at London's most glamorous new venue, The Cuckoo Club. The Purple theme dominated throughout as guests enjoyed a fun night of cocktails, poker and cabaret!
It certainly was a night of diversity where royalty mixed with glamour and Bollywood with Vegas! Lord Freddie Windsor and Lady Sophia Hesketh joined by euro-trash royals Prince Konrad Habsburg , Prince Lucio Solms
and Prince Casimir Wittgenstein hit the dance floor with Page 3 legend Suzie Mitzi and FHM favourite Natasha Elms . Whilst Brit hard man Tamer Hassan , star of The Business and Layer Cake and Ade rubbed shoulders with Bollywood beauty Preevya Kalidas . In a quiet corner Meli Melo designer Melissa Del Bono shared fashion tips with magazine style queens Ticky Hedley-Dent and Kim Hersov .
Chris Gorman , Purple Lounge Chairman and serial entrepreneur, introduced guests to the stunning Tara , face of Purple Lounge and hottest new It Girl in town! London's very own IT Girls then entertained guests with their sexy burlesque show, cumulating in an impromptu yet surprisingly good singing performance from Chris Gorman!
A private poker room was then set up at a secret location so Zac Goldsmith , Tom Parker Bowles and The Marquis of Worcester could enjoy a game sans distractions.
Guests danced well into the early hours to Dom T and Miss Kelly Marie's uplifting beats as they sipped on bespoke Purple Lounge cocktails and decided they would definitely be parking their chips with Purple Lounge!

What the press are saying about Purple Lounge
"The online gambling craze might already be being exposed as the biggest bluff of all time but new sites are still popping up faster than you can say blackjack.
Chris Gorman, the entrepreneur behind the Gadget Shop and DX Communications, is the latest to spin the wheel. He has just become chairman of Purple Lounge, a new website for those with serious cash.
"The site has a luxurious feel and service for those who don't like the mass market," he said.
Since Party Gaming is struggling with too few big punters, Gorman may have a point. He also has a good team - Harry Beecher and Luca Del Bono of Quintessentially, the concierge service for the super rich, are also investors and are already pulling in the celebs.
Purple Lounge is now looking for a "face" to replace cyber Tara, right.
So will this one hold of fold? Place your bets."
