This tiny Principality first became connected to Hollywood Royalty when HSH Prince Rainier married movie star Grace Kelly. Today, with the harbour still packed with mega yachts and the streets lined with deluxe boutiques and hotels, Monaco exudes old-fashioned Hollywood glamour - no wonder the stars still flock here...
We spotted George Clooney, Matt Damon and Brad Pitt watching the Formula one Grand Prix from a yacht in Monaco's harbour in 2004. And we were on hand when Kylie Minogue and Olivier Martinez decided to see if they could be so lucky at Monte Carlo's Casino during the Laureus sports awards in 2003. We often see Bono and The Edge from U2 who often drop into Jimmy Z's nightclub for an evening out from their home in nearby Eze.

Hot Hotels: The sumptuous Hotel de Paris has welcomed Mariah Carey, who checked in under the name of ‘Tinker bell’ as well as Whitney Houston, Ben Affleck, Gwyneth Paltrow, Tom Hanks and Sharon Stone. Also popular is the Hotel Columbus owned by Formula One driver, David Coulthard. He played host to his pal HSH Princess Stephanie of Monaco who stayed at the hotel for a night when she left Monaco’s Palace after a tearful row with her father - HSH Prince Rainer.
This year the world-famous Gentleman's Club, "Stringfellows", will be making it's first ever appearance at POLE POSITION during the 2007 Monaco Grand Prix.
For some seriously good fun with gorgeous people and a real party atmosphere then POLE POSITION is the place to be!
Open for four EXCLUSIVE nights only (Thurs 24th, Fri 25th, Sat 26th and Sun 27th May) this is the ONLY place in town where guests can see the fabulous Stringfellows girls (flown in from London and Paris especially for this event) perform on stage and then party the night away until the early hours of the morning whilst enjoying unlimited drinks at their own reserved table.

Hot Restaurants: Madonna, Jack Nicholson and Heidi Klum have all enjoyed the sumptuous food at the Zebra Square, with it’s views over the Med. Catherine-Zeta and Michael Douglas chose to stay aboard their $100,000 a week charter yacht to eat, but they – gasp! - didn't tip!
Hot Transport: Naomi Campbell and pal Sean Combs often travel from Nice airport to Monaco by helicopter. Tina Turner regularly travels by limo. Her choice of music? - she always asks to listen to her own CDs! Poor Tina was involved in a crash on her way to Monaco in 2003, but luckily, reports suggest it wasn’t caused by her singing along in the back of the limo! Cute couple Jay-Z and Beyonce travelled to the Principality by yacht last year and the R&B diva showed off her curves in a gold bikini.
