OSCAR PARTIES TWO

Rapper 50 Cent wove throughout the party, as did half the cast of music-filled TV show "Glee." Comics Larry David and Sacha Baron Cohen joked together while Kevin Spacey laughed with Jimmy Kimmel. Charlize Theron joyfully hugged best supporting actor nominee Jeremy Renner.

"I just did the Oscars with him, and I'm in love with him," Oscar host Anne Hathaway jokingly gushed about cohost James Franco to another guest while in line for the bathroom.

Also while in the bathroom, stylish actress Eva Mendes wasn't too uptight to adjust a friend's dress, or remark while looking at herself in the mirror, "It looks like a dead animal crawled up my nose!"

Other celebrity attendees included Jennifer Hudson, Hugh Jackman, Donald Trump, Charlize Theron, Jeremy Renner, Michelle Williams, Amy Adams and Gwyneth Paltrow, who waved to screaming fans outside and shouted "I love you too!" as she left in her limo.

A short drive away, at the Elton John AIDS Foundation's 19th annual Oscar viewing dinner and after-party at the Pacific Design Center's tented courtyard, musicians also came together with movie and TV stars to eat, drink, schmooze and participate in the night's big auction to raise money for AIDS research.

Guests including singers Green, Tyler, Smokey Robinson, Seal, Rufus Wainwright and Chaka Khan feasted on goat cheese soup, beets, marinated seared beef tenderloin, salad and apple tarte tatin at dozens of round tables sheathed in mustard-colored cloth. Jamie Foxx, Emma Roberts, Chace Crawford, John Waters and Jane Lynch also attended.

Seal and his wife Heidi Klum sat at Elton John's table, alongside "Glee" star Chris Colpher and his costar Ashley Fink. "We've been trading witty sayings with Elton," said a starry-eyed Colpher. "They're hilarious," added Fink of John and his partner David Furnish.

Kim Kardashian, conservatively classy in dark strapless J. Mendel, showed up to dinner late, as did Kelly Osbourne, who sat with her mom, Sharon. Kardashian and Osbourne toured the party together later.
