He sent 46 texts trying to bed me while he was with Lindsay Lohan.

SLEAZY Calum Best tried to lure a model into bed with a series of obscene text messages behind his famous lover Lindsay Lohan's back.

After getting Dani Gabric's number while Lindsay was in the loo at a restaurant, he sent her a stream of explicit messages.

In one he claimed the Hollywood actress he has been dating for a month was not really his girlfriend... but someone who was hassling him "stalker-style".

And in another he said bluntly: "Hello there you f***ing sexy young lady. We have to meet tonight and finish what we started. Please."

The love-rat son of football legend George Best was staying with Lindsay in New York when he made his play for 6ft 2in model Dani. She was with friends at the city's Cipriani restaurant, a haunt of A-list stars, when Calum, 25, and Lindsay, 20, arrived with pals and sat near them. They had just returned from a holiday together in the Bahamas.

Dani said: '"All the time Calum could not keep his eyes off me. I spotted him straight away and thought he was gorgeous and sexy- looking.

'"I could see he was with Lindsay, because she kept touching him and trying to kiss him.

"But he was always making eye contact with me. The second Lindsay went off to the bathroom, he came over and said we should try and talk somewhere private."

They slipped into a corridor and exchanged mobile phone numbers. But Mean Girls star Lindsay noticed Calum was missing - and sent one of her minders to find him.
