First off, kudos to Us Weekly, who managed to score actual celebrities for Thursday night's Hot Hollywood party in L.A. Remember when Star editorial director Bonnie Fuller tried lining up a few notables for her book party and forgot that her magazine might have insulted them and enraged their handlers?

But there's Lindsay Lohan, Ciara, Rose McGowan, Ashley Simpson, David Arquette, Ali Larter, Justin Chambers, and Lauren Conrad. (Okay, that last one doesn't count.)

Also making appearances? Ryan Seacrest and Carmen Electra, of course, otherwise known as the best friends of Us's online chief Ken Baker, who's holding the mic, next to Brandi Williams. Not that we're implying there's anything less than sanitary about this synergy of personal and business interests, of course. The way Ryan makes his entrance on the American Idol stage is certainly worthy of style recognition, as is the way Carmen moves those bottles of NV.
