Attendees complained the underground venue “stank”, with perspiration “dripping off the walls” and the rooms too crowded to even see the former president. 
 
 One, who called it the “worst party ever” described how “angry people” were waiting in the queue outside while high-profile guests were admitted, and another condemned the event as “unpleasant”. 
 
 The evening had been intended as a fundraising event for the Clinton Foundation Millennium Network, which was set up to “encourage the next generation to address global challenges”. 
 
 Hosted by Bill Clinton and his daughter Chelsea, the night was attended by actress Gwyneth Paltrow, model Lily Cole, performer Will.I.Am and Princess Beatrice. 
 
 Glamorous photographs of the event document Clinton’s short speech addressing the issue of climate change, as well smartly-dressed attendees enjoying themselves. 
 
 A standard ticket to the event cost £125, with some understood to have paid up to £1,000 for a chance to meet the politician. 
 
 But other photographs, taken from outside the venue, show hundreds of people queuing along a wall near to the Old Vic Tunnels, Waterloo, and guests entering through doors painted with graffiti.

 A source told The Daily Telegraph: "We arrived, there was perspiration dripping off the walls and the place absolutely stank. It was like walking into a cave. 
 
 "We left at 9.15pm with a number of other people as the place was too crowded, too unpleasant and nothing had happened. 
 
 "We couldn't even get into the room where Bill Clinton was supposed to be speaking - it was just embarrassing. 
 
 "When we got outside there were still long queues of people waiting to get in." 
 
 Another guest said: "We got to the venue at 7.40pm and were still in the queue at 9.20pm so we just gave up. There were three of us and we had each paid £125 to go."

 Marie Phillips, author of Gods Behaving Badly, said she had she had spent one and a half hour waiting outside with around 300 other people, and had missed most of the evening's speeches. 
 
 Ms Phillips, 36, from Islington, London, said: "I was shocked by how bad it was. Quite a few people waiting outside just got in cabs and left. 
 
 “Bill Clinton only spoke for about two minutes and was basically inaudible. He was at the end of a very long, very crowded room and the acoustics were terrible. 
 
 “In the end I went into a side room to watch it on a screen, which was basically like seeing him on TV. 
 
 “It was completely rammed and I felt like the organisers just hadn’t really done much with it. 
 
 “If they can’t organise a party in London, and almost literally can’t organise a p*** up in a brewery, then how are they spending the rest of the charity's money? 
 
 “If their organisational capacity is this bad, where is it going? It ought to be easier to arrange a party than to solve third world debt or fulfil their other aims. 
 
 “It was a disgrace. How could they have got it so wrong?” 
 
 She added she would be requesting a refund and donating the money to another charity “had more faith in”.

 On the night, she told her Twitter followers: “I'm in! There is literally damp dripping from the ceiling. Clinton talked about climate change for 30 secs. Now chugging cocktails. 
 
 “And now! An exclusive performance from Black Eyed Peas! Or, in tonight's incarnation: some guy pressing play on a laptop. 
 
 “WORST. PARTY. EVER. The queue was the highlight. Unbelievable.”

 Another guest, founder and CEO of Bloomberg New Energy Finance Michael Liebreich, said: “Clinton Millennium Network London bash. Sounds glam? Standing in huge line round the back of Waterloo station... 
 
 “If I were former President of the US I wouldn't let people stand in line for an hour to meet me under a railway arch! ‪#StillWaiting” 
 
 He added: "Events with Bill Clinton are usually quite spectacular and I know he's unbelievably selfless when it comes to his charity work, so I was very much looking forward to it. 
 
 "I waited in line for 90 minutes and once we finally got in we realised it was a completely inappropriate location for the event and we left almost straight away. 
 
 "We didn't hear any of the speeches, the music or eat and drink anything. 
 
 "But it's for charity, it was a bit of fun and I'm happy for the foundation to have the money from the ticket." 
 
 The Millennium Network event was arranged to encourage leaders and philanthropists to get involved in the work of the Clinton Foundation, which aims to improve global health, strengthen economies, promote healthier childhoods, and protect the environment. 
 
 It was co-hosted by the Reuben Foundation, created 10 years ago to channel the charitable giving of property tycoons David and Simon Reuben. ||||| These crawls are part of an effort to archive pages as they are created and archive the pages that they refer to.

– Bill Clinton threw a very expensive fundraiser Tuesday, but the non-celebrity guests were not impressed, with at least one calling it the "worst party ever." The Telegraph recounts tweets and interviews with attendees who stood in line outside for hours after paying anywhere from $200 to nearly $1,600 for a ticket, while Clinton and VIPs like Gwyneth Paltrow and will.i.am schmoozed inside. Once they finally made it in to the underground venue, multiple guests reported perspiration dripping from the walls, and one adds that "the place absolutely stank." Plus, it was so crowded that some couldn't even see or hear Clinton. The London event, a fundraiser for the Clinton Foundation Millennium Network, isn't the only party Clinton's been to lately: Last night, he was photographed with "a porn star on each arm," the New York Post gleefully reports (or, as TMZ puts it, "SURROUNDED by porn stars"). This time around he was at another gala he co-hosted, this one a benefit for the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation
