New Year's Eve 2008

Joshua Jackson and Diane Kruger made a name for themselves as a fashionable couple in 2007 and they celebrated the end of the year by living up to their reputation. The couple went all out for a Great Gatsby themed party at the Soho House in NYC. Gotta love that the party photos were taken with a Polaroid camera, which always adds extra fun. I'll even let Josh's blech moustache go since he's at a theme party. Fab's all about Diane's Roaring 20's themed look while I'm more excited to see Pacey already fulfilling some of your desires to see him more in the new year.

Last week we learned that Leonardo DiCaprio and Bar Refaeli are very much still together and now here's even more evidence that not only are they a couple, but they're cutesy as hell. They were spotted getting all squishy faced celebrating the end of 2007 with a long weekend in Vegas, only they stayed away from the red carpet heavy club scene, opting instead for some QT playing poker at the Bellagio.

For the actual big night, Leo, Bar and 15 friends went with table service at The Bank nightclub in the Bellagio, dancing and drinking away the final hours of 2007. When the clock struck midnight, the adorable duo was making out like the best of 'em. Hopefully this means another good year for this beautiful couple.

Something tells me that this isn't how the Chanel dress Pamela Anderson wore hosting New Year's Eve at Pure in Vegas is intended to look. Instead, she Pam Anderson-ed it out, all boobs, legs, and her signature barbed wire tattoo. You know who else was in the house? Unhygienic Justin Bobby! Noticeably absent from Pam's party was her husband Rick Salomon, though the two are still working things out. Apparently that does not involve spending New Year's together. At the party Pam talked about her crazy year saying, "Oh there's plenty [of problems]. What can you do? We're all human. We're all trying." And for 2008? "More of the same. More excitement, more fun." More of the same, eh? I guess we should be expecting another doozy of a year from Pam.

Shia LaBeouf looked all fancy from the waist up for NYE this year. We like the swanky tie and jacket combo but the black jeans just confuse us and this isn’t the first time he’s pulled off this combo. It’s a shame he couldn't find the time for a quick shave before hitting the clubs in LA on Monday night but at least it looks like he managed to behave himself this time around. As much as we all love that mugshot, we wouldn't want to see him in rehab anytime soon. Shia was the guy most of you wanted to ring in the New Year with, but it looked like he decided to fly solo this year.

Ginger, Baby, Posh, Scary, and Sporty rang in 2008 side by side with dinner at Nobu before heading to Claridges on Monday night. David was along for the ride looking hot (naturally) on Victoria's arm, though I'm not sure I'm loving what she's got going on with her hair. Mel B was there but away from the cameras, who caught Geri, Emma, and Mel C leaving together late night. The girls (who were joined by their men for the party) had two days to recover from their celebration before tonight's big London show. They're starting off the new year with a bang, playing 14 shows in almost that many nights in their home city before continuing their world tour.

Lauren Conrad and Audrina Patridge slipped into their fancy party dresses to ring in the New Year in San Diego. LC was looking way too partied out by the end of the night, but it seems like she had plenty of fun (or at least her lips did - hello LC kissing mystery man). Guess this means her little makeout session with Stephen wasn't too serious. We just hope the cameras were rolling during all of Lauren's adventures with new boys — we can't wait to see her and Kristin Cavallari competing for guys again like back in the Laguna Beach days.

Mariah Carey went with a pretty standard skin tight LWD to take on hosting duties for TAO's New Year's Eve Party in Las Vegas. She had no problem posing with what looks like a delicious cake, but something tells us that Mariah skipped out on dessert. When asked about her New Year's resolutions, she said, "I should have them, but I've already done them," referring to her dieting habits in 2007. We have to agree that she looks pretty fab, which can only help in promoting her new album next year.

MTV rang in the New Year with another star-studded party in their studio overlooking Times Square. Not only did the revelers have a prime spot to view the ball drop, but they were treated to performances by Kid Rock (with Rev Run), Mary J. Blige, Good Charlotte and more. I guess that means Joel didn't get to start the new year with a kiss from Nicole, but I'm sure he'll make up for it back in LA. Cutie VJ Damien Fahey looked dapper in his three piece suit for the big night. The hostess of the party was Tila Tequila, who took the opportunity to announce that her first shot at love didn't work out and she's doing another season of her reality dating show. Who's excited?

Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz went from Christmas in Texas with her family to New Year's Eve in South Beach, all the while attached at the hip. Even though it took a little while to get used to these two as a couple after he said some not-so-sweet things about her, they're looking undeniably smitten these days. Ashlee kept it hot in her little party dress alongside her man while Pete spiffed up his jeans with some snazzy suspenders to act as DJ for the night. Although, it looks like he needed some help on the turntables when he had his hands full with more important matters. Ha.

Mandy Moore hosted a NYE party in Miami at The Raleigh Hotel on Monday night. She was joined by a Carrie-less-Chace Crawford with his new BFF JC Chasez and Dax Shepard (with what looks like no Kristen Bell in site). Mandy has always been one of our favorite starlets for being wholesome, smart and sweet. Hopefully things will remain that way in 2008 but word is she was so sexed up on NYE and all the men took notice. Apparently Mandy turned up the heat in her hot little pink dress so much so that Brody Jenner and BFF Frankie Delgado were staring at the starlet all night and even followed her out at the wee hours of the event. Interesting.
