What an exciting night! No Betty White, and no photo with Elton, but it was amazing.
THIS VIDEO IS A MUST SEE! As seen on ' The Jimmy Kimmel Show' - and I guess 'GMA'
On the red carpet! (Kind of.) Elton John's Oscar Viewing Party begins!
First of many, many drinks.
Ross the intern - I checked in with him all night - he tolerated me very well. To my face.
Gary and Cyrus filling out their ballots - I didn't bother.
Yay!Before the sun went down.
This was the 'gift' bag - one little box. Hardly 'swag.'
ROOMMATES!
John Waters! He posed for this 'cuz I promised I'd buy his book. (I won't). We talked about Divine, and some of his movies.
PAUL RUDD! I ran up to him and said, "Hi!!!" like I knew him or something. I think I freaked him out.
Me: I hope this doesn't offend you, but people always say that we resemble each other.
Paul: I don't see it. I never know who I look like.
Me: I don't either. I've been a fan of yours since 'Sisters.'
Paul: Oh my God!
Steven Tyler was really nice - and kind of feminine looking ...
'True Blood's' Ryan Kwanten
Eric Stonestreet - Cam from 'Modern Family' - was was nice, but not overly - his wife is very pretty and sweet.
THE room
Kyle MacLachlan is awesome. We are 're-enacting' his bit from 'How I Met Your Mother.'
He'll always be Trey from 'Sex and the City' to me!Hayden Panettiere is cool - I hung out with her, and her friend Brian probably more than they wanted me to ;-)
'Glee'! Sandwiched between Chris Colfer and Ashley Fink. They were both great.(Watch the video clip of us!)
Out table. WHY did I not go behind them? I could have been on 'Leno'!
Love Tori Spelling. We bonded 'cuz she loves the gays and we're both Jewish. Ha! And she hugged me. Awwww.
Heidi Klum is a goddess. I spoke with her later.
Me: Heidi! You were so sweet to me last year. My favorite photo was the one of you, Victoria Beckham and me.
Heidi: May I see it?
::: she patiently waited while I found it - and she loved it :::
While we spoke, Gwyneth Paltrow was on-screen singing
Heidi: May I ask what you think of her singing?
Paul: I don't know. I mean, I guess she's not awful but it's weird.
Heidi: Yes.
I kept telling how sweet she is, and she said, "Not always." Who is???
Candis Cayne was awesome. We spoke a lot but it's kind of a blur. I do remember her saying that Billy Baldwin is really nice.
Mr. Shue from 'Glee'
::: later that night by the bar :::
Me: Hey! I guess Sue Sylvester was right - you drink too much!
I didn't actually meet Kim Kardashian - but I took a funny video clip of her
Access Hollywood has labeled me an 'Over-eager' fan'! Bawhaha! (Click to check it out!)
AND then check out what I was really doing HERE.

Elton John was a lot friendlier last year!
Gary chasing Elton!
How many photos do I need of 'Jason Stackhouse'? As many as possible!
David Annable from 'Brothers & Sisters' was one of - if not the nicest people I met that night.
Me: So, I met Rachel Griffiths a few years ago. Is she crazy or what?
David: Why? (laughing)
Me: She was so ... mean and ... weird - I can't even begin to tell you!
David: That's not like her - maybe she was playing with you?
Kim and Maria Menounos ('Today'/'Access Hollywood'.) Not sure if I took this before or after I was labeled a stalker ;-)
Candis and Peter Paige ('Queer as Folk.')
Chase Crawford! Just love this guy. He made my niece's day by saying hello to her in a video clip.
I hung out with these two a LOT. He's producing Melissa Leo's next movie, so he was thrilled she won.
Anyone know who this is? Me neither!
LOVE Leah Remini. I lied and said I think she's great on 'The Talk' (never saw it) but I did love 'King of Queens.' I almost asked her why she's a Scientologist, but I didn't - thankfully!
My buddy (ha) Shawn Pyfrom - 'Desperate Housewives'. Like last year, I ran into him a lot.
No clue who this is ...
Vanessa Hudgens - where was Zac Efron???
Elton performs!
Is that Lance Bass on the end? I saw him a lot that night but didn't say anything to him. (That I remember!)
Cheryl Tiegs? Lance Bass? Over-served much, Paul?
Oops!
I told Gale Harold that I was a fan of his work on 'Queer as Folk' and 'Desperate Housewives.' I didn't ask for a photo WITH him 'cuz he turned me down in 2006 and I'm still bitter.
Cyrus and Gary were ready to go ... and I NEEDED to go! Nine hours of an open bar was enough!
My limo is ready!
