Vikram Chatwal: Dating Lindsay Lohan?

Is Lindsay Lohan hooking up with her "friend" Vikram Chatwal?

Considering she was seen making out with a mystery man in public, and the 39-year-old multimillionaire hotelier had been spotted at with LiLo at his New York City apartment partying until 5 a.m., it seems very possible.

But this is Lindsay Lohan, so there's always more to it.

While the duo appeared to be very much a couple last week, during which they also hit up New York's Fashion Week, Lohan's rep insists they're only pals.

Very close pals.

"Lindsay and Vikram are very good friends and nothing more than that," said Steve Honig, who reps LL. "There's no romance between the two of them."

"As for the photos, I cannot confirm whether or not that is Lindsay. They're grainy, her face isn't even showing that well. There's no way I can confirm that. The angle and the way the photos are shot can make something look misleading."

Sure man. Not as misleading? These HOT Lindsay Lohan photos!
