Hangover report from TV Guide's party on Emmy night
After last week's onslaught of frighteningly bad news, the Emmys were a welcome relief, especially for a TV junkie like me. "Gossip Girl" has been a fun warm-up, but it's the Emmy Awards that really signal the start of the fall TV season—and what better way to get pumped for the shows than by partying with the stars of them? Lucky for me, it was all about the Emmy events on Sunday, from Entertainment Tonight's party at the Walt Disney Concert Hall, where "Mad Men" star January Jones celebrated, to HBO's extraordinarily well-attended bash at the Pacific Design Center. And by well-attended I mean Jeremy Piven, Adrian Grenier, Tom Hanks, Bill Maher, and Larry David all in the same room. And that was just the men. We've got the full party report here, which you know wouldn't be complete without some new 90210 gossip.
I personally hit up TV Guide's party because they always put together something that's trendy, but also whimsical. Last year: Versailles at Les Deux. This year: a Japanese fantasyland at the Kress, complete with oversized bonsai trees, giant rock gardens, kimono-clad girls, performing geishas, paper cranes hanging from the ceiling, and bounties of Japanese treats, notably spicy shrimp rolls and a sake that'd been chilled to perfection in this ice sculpture that all bars should have. MGMT and the Bravery were this year's surprise headliners, a surprise twist given last year's main attraction Kanye West. As always, I was most excited about seeing the stars of my favorite programs, which this year included Kyra Sedgwick ("The Closer") and Jaime Murray ("Dexter"). Spying Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson engaged in lovey-dovey PDA was pretty fun too.
I've got more photos and gossip where that came from! See the full report here»
Now let's just hope for some good news this week.
