This is EXACTLY what Eddie Murphy looked like at Love.

Vampire in Brooklyn star Eddie Murphy was at the 10 p.m. show of Love at The Mirage, holding hands with an unidentified woman who clearly had never suffered through Bowfinger. He was dressed all in white to really make sure everyone had Meet Dave at the forefront of their mind.

Meanwhile, over at Lavo inside Palazzo were chefs Mario Batali and Joe Bastianich, doing a little dancing before moving over to Tao at The Venetian. So, just get that mental image of Mario Batali grooving (possibly with a fish) firmly entrenched in your brain.

Also at Lavo was fashion designer Catherine Malandrino with her family, not doing any dancing whatsoever — with or without a fish.

Call off the dogs, Sally, we have found Heath Ledger’s replacement as The Joker.

World’s No. 1 Tyra Banks fan, Tyra Banks, was at the 10 p.m. show of Love at The Mirage last night with America’s Next Top Model producer Brad Sisk. They drank Diet Cokes and split a large popcorn. Slow down there, Belushi and Courtney Love.

The pair left the theater just as the show ended. Banks is in town to film Top Model at Caesars Palace.

All Together Now, the documentary about Cirque de Soleil’s Love that screened at CineVegas this summer, will be shown in digital projection Oct. 20 at Rave Motion Pictures in Town Square and at the Brenden Theatres inside the Palms. Screenings are at 5, 7 and 9 p.m. Although if you’re agoraphobic or you have a Howard Hughes-like urine-filled-bottle collection that needs tending, you can wait for the DVD release Oct. 21.

Theatergoers can enter a sweepstakes with a grand prize that will include a pair of tickets to Love’s swank Tapis Rouge package, a three-day stay at The Mirage, a copy of every Beatles CD and a copy of the All Together Now DVD. Just don’t get all heady with your Beatlemania and dash off an appreciative letter to Ringo Starr. If there’s one thing he hates, it’s all that “Yellow Submarine” fan mail.

Bowfinger star Heather Graham was at the 7 p.m. showing of Love at The Mirage last night with Todd Phillips, director of Graham’s upcoming The Hangover. Look, the last time Heather Graham was hanging out with a director, it was Jack Horner and someone got curb-stomped outside of a limo. Those roller skates hurt, too.

In other Cirque news, Celine Dion took her family to one of the Believe preview shows last night at Luxor. Meanwhile, Bette Midler dined with three friends at Sushi Roku at Caesars Palace, while fighter Antonio Tarver, who we feel compelled to point out has beaten Roy Jones Jr., was at Michael Boychuck’s Amp inside the Palms for a pedicure.

Moments before Dave Coulier busted in and insisted the couple leave some room for the Holy Ghost.

Ashley Olsen and new boyfriend Justin Barth of National Treasure 2: National Treasurier fame took in the 7 p.m. performance of Love at The Mirage, sneaking in when the show started and slipping out as it was ending.

They then cropped up at Jet with seven friends that included bearded comic and noted Dane Cook-hater Zach Galifianakis. They partied until 2 a.m. Before hitting the club, the couple found time to dine at Stack.

Galifianakis and Bartha are in town to film on location for upcoming The Hangover from Starsky & Hutch director Todd Phillips. Look, not for nothing, but Bartha should just be a little careful, considering how things work out for Olsen twin boyfriends.

The Astronaut Farmer star Billy Bob Thornton brought girlfriend Connie Angland, son Willie and daughter, Bella, to Love at The Mirage last night where he swung backstage after the show to meet the cast and invite them to see his concert tonight at The Joint inside Hard Rock Hotel. We’re not sure if assuring everyone “it’s better than that crap Bruce Willis used to do” was really the way to drum up interest, but hey, we never had a creepy sex scene with Halle Berry, so what do we know?

Also at the show were the lads from Panic at the Disco, getting as much mileage as they can from the birthdays of Ryan Ross and Spencer Smith.

Is it just us or does this photo kind of make Britney look like a vampire? (Photo by Denise Truscello)

Britney Spears spent Sunday night at Love at The Mirage along with stylist Kim Vo and friends. Spears didn’t talk to anyone as she went to her seats from backstage, although she did ask for a hot dog during the show. We would’ve thought the ballpark vendors would disrupt the stage show, but people seem to really love when the peanut guy flings the bags a few rows deep.

After the show, Spears played blackjack in the High Limit Lounge and had a private late-night dinner at Japonais before retiring around 2 a.m.

KISS frontman Paul Stanley and wife Erin Sutton strutted into the 7 p.m. performance of Love at The Mirage last night. Before the show, Stanley shopped at the boutique and bought himself a women’s Beatles T-shirt, which, frankly we’d have been more shocked if he had actually bought himself men’s clothes.

After the show, the couple met the cast and crew backstage where Stanley signed the wall of fame
“All you need is Love and KISS.” And then he tried to sell the cast a KISS Kasket.

Stanley also turned up at N9NE Steakhouse inside the Palms, where he had dinner with George Maloof. KISS plays The Pearl tonight at 8 p.m. Also at the hotel were Hinder, rolling into the Playboy Club with a group of 10 that included Phil Maloof. They mixed up their Ketel One and Jaegermeister with Captain Morgan’s Private Stock. Hinder goes tonight with Staind and 3 Doors Down at Mandalay Bay.

Linkin Park’s Chester Bennington and Orgy’s Ryan Shuck, along with their managers, producers and a handful of friends stopped by The Mirage last night for the 10 p.m. show of Love. Unfortunately, now that they’ve already collaborated with Jay-Z, and Jay-Z just did Oasis’ “Wonderwall,” and Oasis shamefully apes The Beatles, well — let’s just say we don’t like where this is going. And by “where this is going” we mean samples cut together to make it sound like John Lennon is freestyling over “Crawling.”

Bennington had dinner at Stack inside Bellagio where “In the End” he had lobster tacos. Get it? In the end? Because they had a song called — no, no you’re right. That song sucks and we shouldn’t even joke.

American Idol season 7 fifth-place finisher Brooke White was at Love inside The Mirage Friday night. After the show she went backstage to meet the cast and film a birthday tribute to Ringo Starr that will air tonight on Larry King Live. King, as everyone knows, is sometimes referred to as the “Fifth Beatle,” for his crucial role as the grandfather of the owner of the club that gave proto-Beatles band The Quarrymen their first real break.

Meanwhile, former Real World contestant Trishelle Cannatella hosted a casting call for E!’s Wild On at Bare Friday afternoon, then kept the festivities going at Jet Saturday night along with Playboy cover model Alison Waite. Cannatella hung out with Olympic silver-winning skier Bode Miller. We’d like to believe Miller spent the whole night finding out how to get on Real World/Road Rules Challenge.
