There are two sides to all celebrities: The squeaky-clean images forced upon the public by PR reps and their actual personalities. To provide you with a glimpse into the real Hollywood characters are Mollygood’s very own readers, telling tales of celebrity encounters big and small. Up this week: stopthemadness' party with Janice Dickinson and Devon Sawa. CONTINUED »
Ha! In a case of mistaken career, Dita Von Teese, the woman who strips for a living but gets pissed if you call her a stripper, was asked by Prince Charles to perform for his son, Prince Harry, at Harry's birthday party in September.
Charles unwittingly hired the stripper after they met at the Cartier International Polo Tournament and she told him she was a "dancer," forgetting to add that her routine closes with her breasts slick with soapy water and topped by glittery pasties. Oh, won't the Queen be pleased!
I performed at a bar mitzvah. And I'm telling you, man, these little motherfuckers, they were singing my shit, they was cussin', they were singing the dirty version. I'm talking about twelve- and thirteen-year-old little white kids singin' this real gangsta shit. Man. I was shocked. I just gave them the mic and let them motherfuckers go.
An absurdly presumptuous Web site's been created to advertise sponsorship opportunities for Lindsay Lohan's 22nd birthday party. According to the site, the party will be a "unique branding opportunity" for companies looking to get in good with the cokey tart demographic.
Due to Lohan's checkered past, alcohol brands are not welcome sponsors. And drug dealers don't even advertise, so what company's going to be interested in this is anybody's guess.

American Idol loser Michael Johns seems to unfortunately be the latest addition to Hollywood's incestuous social circles, as evidenced by his appearance at a Kanye West tour party last night in Hollywood along with America's favorite D-listers.

Umm:
[Eminem] has been confirmed to play at [Nelson Mandela]'s 90th birthday bash this summer.
…
An insider revealed: “We’re amazed to have Eminem on board. We wanted some of the greatest artists from recent times and Eminem was on the list. Brian contacted Eminem’s management on the off-chance and never expected him to go for it. It’s going to be explosive stuff and it’s certainly a big stage to make his comeback."
First the demon goat and now this. Start making amends with whatever god(s) you may have, people. This can't go on for much longer.
A bartender serving drinks at punker Ashton Kutcher's birthday party at Manhattan "hot spot" Socialista on February 7 has tested positive for Hepatitis A. The New York City Health Department says all guests in attendance could have contracted the virus and should be properly vaccinated. Besides Kutcher and his wife, Demi Moore, at risk are Madonna, Gwyneth Paltrow, Salma Hayek and Bruce Willis.
Hepatitis A is borne mostly through food or drinks contaminated with the feces of an infected person. Lucky for Madonna, Kutcher and Moore, their constant intake of Kabbalah bullshit ensures they have a high tolerance for this sort of thing. The others should seek treatment immediately.

Last night Tara Reid attended a party hosted by smart – the maker of those teeny cars – and Live Earth – the maker of those huge concerts. The event, which took place in Venice, California, was held in honor of "artists at the forefront of environmental awareness." Reid was celebrated for never working, thereby eliminating all chances of anyone burning fuel to see her movies.

SCHMOSCARS LOSING FRIENDS Vanity Fair announced yesterday that it would not hold its annual Academy Award party…[Vanity Fair editor-in-chief Graydon] Carter told The New York Times, 'A magazine like Vanity Fair is a group of writers and artists, and we are in solidarity with the writers and artists out there. Whether the strike is over or not, there are a lot of bruised feelings. I don't think it's appropriate for a big magazine from the East to come in and pretend nothing happened.'"

• We think that's a kid hoisting a champagne flute! Oh, Italy! [CityRag]
What a year of decadence and depravity in Hollywood, huh? Throughout the last 12 months, Lindsay Lohan went to rehab and jail, Britney Spears went to rehab, Paris Hilton went to jail, Nicole Richie went to jail, Kiefer Sutherland went to jail, Michelle Rodriguez went to jail and Anna Nicole Smith died.
We'll probably never know for sure exactly what the hell is wrong with these people (we assume it's a combination of too much fame and money and too little education), but we're almost certain their steady decline into mediocrity, criminality and early graves will not cease in 2008. The question is who will falter this year, and in what way.
Here, let us make some predictions:

Pamela Anderson hosted a New Year's Eve party at Pure nightclub in Las Vegas sans husband Rick Salomon and his wool hat and surrounded by many cackling men. We're not sure if the gents were laughing with her or at her. We are sure her dress was made by Chanel.
Despite the venue, everything looks quite impure.

On an airplane today, we heard a woman tell her child that tonight was a holiday. She quickly qualified the statement with "but not a meaningful one." We've never heard it put more succinctly.
We're going to a party tonight. There, we will post up in a corner with a tall glass of bourbon and ginger ale and hopefully, against all odds, by midnight, run into some meaning .
We hope you'll join us on our mission to meet 2008 bleary-eyed, tired and drunkenly courageous.
If you're in Hollywood, ring in the New Year at the parties detailed after the jump. Or not. (For a New York guide, check out Jossip.)

Hollywood's latest scourge of the 101, Mischa Barton, will proceed with hosting duties at a New Year's Eve party in Las Vegas.
According a representative: "We are aware of Mischa Barton’s incident last night, but at present she is still expected to host the CatHouse Grand Opening at Luxor Las Vegas on December 29th. We will let you know if anything changes." (Hint: It will not change. "It" being much, much more than this lame-ass party. So much more.)
Consummate unprofessional Amy Winehouse pinky swears she's going to rehab in Israel in the New Year in order to be healthy enough to not puke blood at the Grammys.
To prepare to get the drugs out of her system once and for all, friends say Winehouse plans to ingest a whole shitload of them in an epic "Getting My Life Together After This OD" rager.
A pal said Amy — nominated for six Grammies — is desperate to shine at the glittering Los Angeles awards ceremony on February 10.
…
“She wants to give the performance of her life in LA. But she’s going to throw a party over Christmas — which will probably be a messy affair.”
Your Death Pool guesses should be concentrating greatly right about now.
Marc Jacobs held his annual holiday costume party last evening. It had an Arab theme and, if the host was this ethnically sensitive, imagine how the guests behaved. Hint: So many fake breasts in New York! (It fills us with such a distinct pride to know that not even the demure dress codes currently gripping the war-torn Middle East can keep American women from showing their boobs.)
Prepare yourself for the mysterious, slightly NSFW Oriental delights that beckon you from beyond the jump.
