Kordell Stewart is still allowed to hang out with other Steelers. You’d think that wouldn’t be allowed after that whole being-Kordell-Stewart thing that went down in the ’90s, but there you go. Maybe Jerome Bettis just didn’t notice, because he, Stewart and Hines Ward celebrated the Bus’s 38th birthday Friday night at Tao inside The Venetian. They started in the private dining room for dinner before joining MMA fighters Gray Maynard, Ray Sefo and Jay Hieron at the club. The three Steelers ate at N9NE Steakhouse on Saturday.

Over at First inside Palazzo, Chef Charlie Trotter got a look at the foot-diameter Debranski Burger which will debut later this month. Because this is America, that’s why.

Eve inside Crystals saw Soulja Boy Tell ‘Em to perform a four-song set including “Kiss Me Thru the Phone,” “Turn My Swag On” and “All the Way Turnt Up.” Bryan Scott of the Buffalo Bills was there for his bachelor party along with the Rams’ Steven Jackson, Chamillionaire, Sliff Star and comics Alex Thomas and Joe Clair.

This was going to be a regular act at the club until they realized they could get a dolphin to do pretty much the same thing and you’d only have to pay him in fish.

Eve went into charity mode on Saturday night, donating 100 percent of the $25 cover to the Red Cross to aid relief efforts for the victims of the Chile earthquake. On hand to host a charity raffle were Criss Angel, Fantasy’s Angelica Bridges and Carrot Top. Angel, for his part, said “I’ve seen all these poses” when it came time to auction off an autographed Holly Madison calendar. So, you know. Classy.

Rob Schneider was over at Planet Hollywood’s Strip House, snapping a couple of pictures with fans. Jerry Tarkanian settled in at N9NE Steakhouse with a group of 10.

Adriana Fernandez had the best kind of fashion show Friday night at Eve inside Crystals — a bikini fashion show. Holly Madison was on hand with Laura Croft, even coming out for the fashion show in a black one-piece.

This all comes after lunch on Friday at Cabo Wabo inside the Miracle Mile where she had a brush with awesome. Lita Ford, soon to be a household name again when The Runaways comes out, but forever partly for “Close My Eyes Forever,” but mostly for dressing like this in the ’80s. See, back then we would buy tapes like Lita and Vixen because they had pictures of rocker chicks all over the gatefold. When Open Up and Say … Aaah! had a banned cover and actual naked boobs in the liner notes, it was like finding the Dead Sea Scrolls wrapped in a lovely Christmas card from the nice alien family next Saturn. If you are under about 23 you cannot underestimate what a radical development the Internet is.

Ford was there with her two kids and her husband, Nitro singer Jim Gillette that night for dinner and the Rock Daddy performance. They should’ve honored her with an all-”Kiss Me Deadly” set.

Over at Blush, Bears linebacker Brian Urlacher was apparently celebrating Julius Peppers signing with Chicago. Killers bassist Mark Stoermer had a table as well. Jay Fiedler was at N9NE Steakhouse in a group of 10, while upstairs at Moon, Brad Jones of the Packers partied with five friends.

But what’s truly fantastic is that Ed Lover was poolside during the day. If you were a pool DJ and Ed Lover was there, you’d have to play “Let Me Clear My Throat” until he collapsed from doing the Ed Lover Dance, wouldn’t you? And, just because: Ed Lover and a drunken ODB. Take the rest of the afternoon off, because it don’t get no better.

Kelis was in at Eve inside Crystals Friday night to channel her inner Gaga accentuated by what appears to be fashionable old gym teacher hair and a Lone Ranger mask. She did three songs for the crowd, including her David Guetta-produced single “Acapella,” “4th of July” and a remix of “Milkshake.”

Dania Ramirez of Heroes was partying with her when Kelis received a milkshake-shaped cake. That’s kind of a cold swerve, to make dessert look like other, even more delicious dessert. If we ever get faked out by a baklava shaped like a cannoli, we’re going to be annoyed.

In between dinner at Beso and performing at Eve, Kelis, Ramirez and friends went to se Love at The Mirage.

Mark it on your Mayor Goodman Proclamation Calendar, Feb. 20 is Eva Longoria Parker Day for her role in Latina-ing up the nightlife scene. Parker celebrated Saturday night with her parents at Eve inside Crystals, where she also got the Premio de Oro for Distinguished Business Leadership award from the Latin Chamber of Commerce.

After the awards were handed out, she and her folks ate at Beso before going upstairs for obligatory cake, a Champagne toast and a visit from Jeff Beacher’s Oompa Loompas. Perez Hilton was also there for the festivities as part of his whirlwind Saturday night.

AnnaLynne McCord celebrated the end of 90210’s season along with the birthday of friend and agent Melissa Hirschenon, where they were joined by The Spy Next Door’s Katherine Boecher, is-he-or-isn’t-he boyfriend Kellan Lutz and sister Angel McCord Friday night at Eve inside Crystals.

The total group numbered 25, and they started with dinner at Beso, eating family style. Both McCord sisters claimed to be single, but AnnaLynne was flirting and dancing with Lutz. And then there were Oompa Loompas involved, because Las Vegas, that’s why.

Over at Palazzo, Amanda Beard came in for an Opening Ceremonies Viewing Party at Lagasse’s Stadium where she looked like she was going to stab an Olympic torch cake, because she is, no joke, a delight. Seven-time gold medal winners shouldn’t be that cool. she was with husband Sacha Brown, and said said she’ll be attending the Olympics in the future. Click for more words and pictures »

AnnaLynne McCord is celebrating the season wrap of 90210 tonight at Eve inside Crystals, and she’s bringing sparkly vampire boyfriend Kellan Lutz. But that Benicio del Toro movie is out today, so werewolves are totally going to be the new sparkly vampires. Maybe something to make it a little more hip for tween girls. Like werewolves with an outrageous, Gaga-inspired fashion sense. All their werewolf fur can be shaped into a sun hat. Click for more words and pictures »

Jon Stewart did his Valentine’s Day shopping at The Mirage’s Sugar Factory Friday night, where he was performing for the weekend. We’d say something about how out-of-character it seems, but apparently the pricey lollipops were good enough for Randy Couture, too. He celebrated his win over Mark Coleman in UFC 109 at Eve inside Crystals with a lollipop for dessert after he and his crew had dinner at Beso. Friday night at Eve saw 2008 Playmate of the Year Jayde Nicole in for her birthday.

Have you ever been to any event that involved custom T-shirts that ended well? Family reunions. Terrible bachelorette parties. Group The Price is Right outings. Wilmer Valderrama’s birthday party. With the possible exception of scoring some sweet, sweet Plinko time, no one’s enjoying any of these things.

Yet Valderrama’s friends surprised him with shirts as he celebrated his 30th Saturday night at Eve, after doing dinner at Beso. Miss America judge Vivica Fox turned up with friend Regina King after the pageant was over. It’s just too bad the Kill Bill actress couldn’t get Tarantino to come in for the judging. As if he weren’t weird or awkward enough judging American Idol, we’d love to see what would happen when he was locked in a room with a bunch of women in formal shoes. He’d probably combust so fast there’d just be a Quentin-shaped shadow on the wall, like he was at Nagasaki.
