If we never have to see another damn vampire movie again, it won’t be too soon. But some Hollywood a-hole decided to go ahead and make Twilight even though we all know that ever since John Carpenter’s Vampires all other vampire movies have been completely superfluous. Once you’ve put James Woods into a vampire flick, there ain’t nowhere to go but down.
Anyway, the cast of this young-adult-Anne-Rice flick, Peter Facinelli, Billy Burke, Ashley Greene and Kellen Lutz will be at Prive inside Planet Hollywood Resort tomorrow night. Whatever. We’ll get excited when they’ve got the cast of From Dusk Till Dawn coming in. And they’d better have Selma Hayek doing her snake dance.
Indiana Mother f@#%ing Jones was in the house Saturday at Prive with girlfriend Calista Flockhart to celebrate a friend’s birthday. How the DJ refrained from playing nothing but John Williams music is beyond us. We’re glad we didn’t know about this in advance, because we probably would have made one of our friends come with us dressed as a wookiee — but then again, that sort of thing probably happens to Harrison Ford all the time.
We’re also at a loss to explain how Ford can go to a bar without busting the place up and then apologizing, “Sorry about the mess.” It’s kind of his thing.
Ford started out drinking Grey Goose on the rocks before switching up to vodka/Red Bull. Flockhart stuck with wine. They took off around 1:30 a.m. while the rest of their crew stayed until 3 a.m. The only bump came after Ford left when someone in his group opened the Ark of the Covenant that he had left behind. We think you know how that went.
Also there was Chase Johnson of Laguna Beach, who never single-handedly beat president-hijacking terrorists at anything.
They’ll have to make a sex tape to catch up. (Photos by Erik Kabik | Retna. Additional photos by Scott Harrison | Retna)
It was dueling celbucouples last night at the premiere of Repo! The Genetic Opera inside Planet Hollywood Resort with Paris Hilton and Benji Madden going head to head with Criss Angel and Holly Madison.
Hilton and Madison got things going with an afterparty with the cast at Prive with Paris occasionally hopping up on a couch to dance, but Angel and Madison upped the ante by making out after a few drinks and sharing a lollipop.
They even kept it up at Tryst inside Wynn Las Vegas for some more PDA as Angel fed Madison strawberries. Nauseatitastic! Of course, Madison says she’s in love with the illusionist, so everything’s just puppy dogs and rainbows.
Also in the crowd at Tryst were Gary Sheffield hanging out with the Cowboys’ Tank Johnson, boxer Miguel Cotto, MMA fighters Dan Henderson and Jay Hieron and rapper Too Short.
Chingy, bringing camouflage and graffiti together at last.
You’re probably still hung over from Halloween. Lord knows we are. If, however, you failed to consume your body weight in vodka over the weekend, you have a few options tonight. Prive at Planet Hollywood Resort does Money for Nothing tonight with Chingy. Chingy is reportedly working on a new reality show centering on his sister and cousins. So if you were wondering if The Pick-Up Artist 2 represented the absolute nadir of reality television, the answer is no. No it did not. Click for more words and pictures »

Emilio Estevez’s brother and Young Guns co-star Charlie Sheen was at Prive inside Planet Hollywood Resort Saturday night to help Spin City co-star Michael Boatman celebrate his birthday.
The crew started in Robert Earl’s personal suite to watch the bizarre game three of the World Series that ended with a five-man infield and two intentional walks to load the bases in the ninth, which worked out about as well as setting up a pitching machine and daring Ryan Howard that there was no way he could hit a line drive through third-base coach Tom Foley.
Regardless, the crew went from watching the game to wandering into Prive smoking cigars, keeping everything strictly non-alcoholic as Sheen quaffed orange juice while the rest had water. Sheen left the club at 1 a.m. to hop a plane back to Los Angeles to be home with his pregnant wife Brooke who is expecting twins. They’ll be expected to star in Hot Shots 3 sometime in 2030 and spend $75,000 on Heidi Fleiss’s granddaughter around 2032.
We’d love to sit Charlie down and ask him what Tom Berenger was like. Was he nice? Was he funny?
National treasure Charlie Sheen is at Prive inside Planet Hollywood Resort tomorrow night to host. Now, it’s easy to forget now that he’s just cashing a paycheck in Two and a Half Men, but Charlie Sheen is the star of one of the three best scenes in movie history, right behind Sonny in the tollbooth and King Kong taking a dive down to 5th Avenue. We present: Ricky “Wild Thing” Vaugh striking out American League Triple Crown leader Clu Haywood:
Saw 5 marks its world premiere tonight at Planet Hollywood Resort at 7 p.m., followed by an afterparty at Prive. We know it’s hard to tell all those Saw movies apart, but the fifth one is the one where they put the dead horse in an inescapable trap. Click for more words and pictures »
This is from his first trip, but you wouldn’t be surprised if he walked around shirtless in October, would you?
Inhuman cyborg sent from the future to destroy modern swimming records Michael Phelps was at Prive inside Planet Hollywood Resort with an unidentified brunette and five friends last night, hitting up Money for Nothing featuring Mos Def just after midnight. Phelps kicked it at Table 69 before heading out to the regular VIP area and ordering two magnums of Perrier-Jouet Rose. Phelps was getting close with the brunette through the night, and they took off around 2 a.m. For lessons. Private swimming lessons. We’re sure that’s all it was. What? You aren’t going to learn how to kick-flip on your own.
Justin Timberlake capped off his fundraising weekend with a concert Friday night at Planet Hollywood Resort followed by an evening at Prive. The afterparty alone raised $50,000 for the Shriners Hospitals for Children, which should pay for plenty of fezzes and little cars.
Timberlake got to Prive around 1:30 a.m. with girlfriend Jessica Biel, who stuck close by for the night. They were joined by 300 personal guests in a special section. How does that even work? By guest 250 or so, that isn’t “bringing some friends along” anymore, that’s “letting any hobo who sees you walking down the street join your entourage.” Joining JT were friend and business partner Trace Ayala, members of Boyz II Men, singers Leona Lewis and Esmee Denters, former fellow *NSYNCer Chris Kirkpatrick, breakdancing all-star and Silver Spoons standout Alfonso Riberio, Nuttin’ But Stringz and Will.i.am, who turned in a three-hour DJ set.
The Justin Timberlake Shriners Hospitals for Children Open ended with Marc Turnesa firing a 25-under to capture the event by a stroke over Matt Kuchar. John Daly missed the cut and finished tied for 84th, but more than made up for that in free beer in the clubhouse.
Joining him on stage at 9 p.m. are the Jonas Brothers, Rhianna, 50 Cent and Leona Lewis. Whoever planned for Fiddy to share a green room with the Jonases has to be an evil genius of the highest order, and they need to videotape that meeting.
After the show, JT and friends host at Prive, with proceeds from the night benefiting the Shriners Hospitals.
