While the A-Listers were off at that stuffy (okay, fun looking) Vanity Fair party, Jennifer Love Hewitt was hosting the annual Esquire/AIDS charity benefit party at the Abbey. This Oscars party held court for Something-Listers like Lance Bass, Haylie Duff and her boyfriend AJ DiScala. Yeah, the guest list may not be utterly thrilling, but at least J-Love looked great! Get down with your Ghost Whispering self (though you'll always be Sarah Reeves to me), girl!

As Jennifer Hudson stepped onto the red carpet this Sunday, the world seemed to let out a collective Whaaaa? as they laid eyes on the silver bolero that would soon go down in Oscar fashion infamy. Thankfully, didn't make it on stage for her acceptance speech, but it seemed to be on the top of everyone's Worsts lists. Turns out, J-Hud herself might not have been too keen on the accessory, but her stylist for the evening, Vogue Celebrity Editor Andre Leon Talley insisted that she wear the thing. Scandal. Here's more:

"Jennifer was kind of sponsored by Talley and Vogue," said one fashionista. "Andre insisted she wear that hideous Oscar de la Renta dress with the awful, awful gold python bolero.
"Jennifer really didn't want to, and so [noted stylist] Jessica Paster got her a beautiful gold Roberto Cavalli custom-made. But when Andre found out, he went ballistic. Moments before she left for the show, there was a power struggle and Jennifer ended up putting his outfit on."
Awww, well it wasn't so bad. Plus, in a couple of months, her performance will be way more memorable than her jacket, right? Right?

Jennifer Aniston caught up with Oscar winner Helen Mirren at a Pre-Oscars party in LA last week. Jen looks like she's a big fan of Helen, whose style and class doesn't seem to be lost on anyone these days, even the Queen of England. Helen jokingly paid tribute to Her Majesty in her Best Actress Oscar speech and now word is that The Queen is arranging to have tea with the actress. Jen, on the other hand, has her own rendezvous rumors to deal with...

While filming her cameo on the season finale of Dirt, Jen reportedly found herself a new gentleman friend. Her rep, however, has quickly squashed that story, which is too bad, because we would love to see her find a new paramour.

The Academy Awards themselves may be over, but that certainly doesn't mean all the glamour and celebrations are done too. We're going to be covering all of it (yes, we're still going), but in case you missed the biggest highlights so far, here's a little round-up so you can catch up on all the fun:
Cute Carmen is gearing up to try her hand at magic. She is teaming up with international illusionist Hans Klok, whose claim to fame is being the "fastest magician" on the planet (whatever that means), in a new show called Faster than Magic. Performances start April 18th at the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino and while we're not exactly sure what Carmen is going to be doing in the show -- magician's assistant, perhaps -- we're sure she'll give Cirque and Celine a run for their money.

Thanks to Forbes for pointing out to us that Lindsay Lohan is beyond rich at the young age of 20. At least we know she works hard for her money. LL is seen here on the set of I Know Who Killed Me. While she may be pleased with herself for topping another list, Lindsay was actually rated the third richest of Young Hollywood's Top-Earning Stars by Forbes. LL follows the Olsen twins (you know that's gonna piss her off) and Harry Potter actor Daniel Radcliffe. Maybe now that she is sobered up and concentrating on her career again she can top the list next year.

Kimora Lee isn't at her best unless she's the center of attention, but luckily she was willing to share the spotlight (just a bit) with some of her pals at the Vibe Magazine pre-Oscar party. Even with big name men like Diddy, Russell Simmons and Dennis Rodman all present at the Vibe party, the ladies were obviously the ones stealing that show. Kimora may be looking happy with an artist's rendition of Queen Latifah, but you just know she totally just wants her own.
