Model even arranges for Banksy to make him special painting
Kate Moss organised an Andy Warhol-themed party to help boyfriend Jamie Hince celebrate turning 40 last week.
The model is believed to have spent ?100,000 on the bash, buying Jamie a set of framed Marilyn Monroe screen prints and giving him a 3ft guitar-shaped cake.
Kate, 34, is even thought to have arranged for street artist Banksy to do his own Warhol-style painting for Jamie.
‘It was obvious how much effort she had put into it,’ a source tells the News Of The World.
Sadie Frost, 43, Rhys Ifans, Jason Donovan, both 40, and Bobby Gillespie, 46, were amongst the guests who had fun.
But Kate’s arrangements for her Christmas knees-up could end up with frosty silences.
She has invited ex Jefferson Hack, 37 – the father of her daughter Lila Grace, 6 – to join her and Jamie for the festive celebrations.
‘As far as she’s concerned, so long as her daughter Lila Grace is happy and surrounded by the people she loves, then she’s happy too,’ a source tells the Daily Mirror.
‘This means inviting both Lila’s dad, Jefferson, and her boyfriend, Jamie to her Cotswolds home – and sod the consequences.’

Elle Macpherson is not just a pretty face.
The supermodel also appears to have have mastered the art of surfing.
Elle, 44, stunned onlookers when she proved age hasn’t caught up with her yet as she surfed the waves on holiday in Australia.
And the sport clearly helps her to stay in shape as she also displayed her long, lean legs in black bikini bottoms.
Later, Elle kicked back on shore, looking stunning in in a brown mini skirt and vest stop – but was sure to protect her skin from the sun with a trendy cowboy hat and sunglasses.
The active mother-of-two – known as the body – recently came under fire for cycling with her five-year-old son Aurelius Cy perched on her handlebars.
But the Notting Hill resident maintained she has no plans to stop riding her bike.
‘I don’t know what all the fuss was about. I love my children and would never put them in any danger.
‘He was wearing a crash helmet and I wasn’t going very fast,’ the Australian said.
She added: ‘I would never stop cycling.
‘We have so much fun and, besides, it helps keeps me in shape.’

She was one of the original clutch of Eighties supermodels, dated Warren Beatty and was then-boyfriend Axl Rose’s inspiration for the Guns N’ Roses song This I Love.
And at 40 years of age Stephanie Seymour showed she has kept the figure, and the model looks she became famous for as she holidayed with her family on the Caribbean island of St Barts.
She showed off her slim and toned body in a selection of swimsuits – in scenes reminiscent of her days gracing countless pages of Sports Illustrated’s swimwear issues.
Stephanie’s trim figure is all the more impressive considering that since her time in the spotlight she has given birth to Dylan, 17, Peter, 14, Harry, 11, and four-year-old Lilly.
Her children joined her on the beach, along with her real estate developer husband Peter Brant, who she married in 1995 in France.
The family swam, played ball games and built sandcastles on the sunny beach where they are spending the Christmas break.
Her now idyllic-looking family life is a far cry from her younger days when at the age of just 16 she began dating John Casablancas, the head of Elite Model Management, who was, at the time, married to model Jeanette Christjansen.
The couple lived together before Seymour broke off the relationship.
A short-lived marriage to guitarist Tommy Andrews failed in 1990, but resulted in the birth of her first son, Dylan Thomas Andrews in 1991.
Before dating rocker Axl Rose, she was briefly involved with actor Warren Beatty. During the relationship with the rock musician she appeared in two Guns N’ Roses videos.
Stephanie sported a barbed wire tattoo around her right ankle – perhaps a memento of her days as the girlfriend of Guns N’ Roses singer Axl Rose.
Stephanie and Axl broke up in 1993 after a two-year relationship when Axl accused her of being unfaithful.
The break-up was acrimonious with the couple counter-suing one another and each alleging assault.

Supermodel Kate Moss has invited her ex-lover on Christmas, a move that her current beau Jamie Hince is not very pleased with. The catwalk queen has invited ex-lover/father of her child, Jefferson Hack, who will be accompanied by his model girlfriend Anouck Lepere.
“Kate is a modern woman with modern values,” the Mirror quoted a source, as saying. “As far as she’s concerned, so long as her daughter Lila Grace is happy and surrounded by the people she loves, then she’s happy too. This means inviting both Lila’s dad, Jefferson, and her boyfriend, Jamie to her Cotswolds home and sod the consequences.
“Yes, it may be a little awkward and there are bound to be squabbles over who gets the last roast potato, but Kate reckons as long as she acts as a buffer, all will be fine. “Jamie loves Lila and Kate and obviously wants to be with them on Christmas day. He is less keen on the ex hanging around. When Kate told him she wanted Lila to be with both parents on December 25th, Jamie wasn’t exactly thrilled.”
“It’s probably fair to say Jamie wouldn’t be distraught if Jefferson choked on the turkey wishbone,” the source added.
