Stars Party at Glitzy Giorgio Armani Pre-Oscars Bash
Published
TMZ.com
Giorgio Armani held a pre-Oscars soiree Saturday night … bringing out a massive contingent of big-name stars to party hard, including Samuel L. Jackson and Adrien Brody.
TMZ obtained exclusive video from inside the Beverly Hills celebration, where Samuel and Adrien mingled with Kristen Bell, Georgina Chapman, Dolph Lundgren, and John Lithgow.
Eiza Gonzalez, Madelyn Cline, and Lucas Gage were also part of the line-up — along with Cooper Koch, Natalia Bryant, Marsai Martin, Barry Frediani and LaKeith Stanfield.
Some of the others mingling and rubbing shoulders at the bash were Madisin Rian, SAINt JHN, and WNBA player Kysre Gondrezick.
Leo DiCaprio, Sean Penn, Mick Jagger, Pamela Anderson, Goldie Hawn, Cara Delevingne, John Mayer, Jon Hamm and Michael Keaton were also in Bev Hills on Saturday night partying at a separate shindig.
If this all sounds exhausting it’s because it probably is — it’s the show-your-face part of showbiz.
By the way … celebs won’t even get to cross the finish line of the hobnobbing marathon when the Oscars ceremony ends because then the afterparty fun begins!
‘Masked Singer’

Aubrey O’Day had a few choice words about her former boss, Diddy, while on “The Masked Singer” stage … but some people connected to him want to remind Aubrey — don’t bite the hand that fed you.
A source close to Diddy, with direct knowledge of the O’Day situation, tells TMZ it’s all thanks to Diddy she had the incredible opportunity when he cast her on MTV’s “Making the Band” as a member of Danity Kane nearly 20 years ago.
The source also reminded us, Diddy is only detained and hasn’t even gone to trial yet to present a defense — so none of Aubrey’s claims hold up, at least not yet.

Of course, Aubrey hasn’t been quiet about Diddy, and even spilled her truth last year in our TMZ doc about his criminal case.

Aubrey didn’t name-drop Diddy directly on “The Masked Singer” last week, but it was pretty clear who she was talking about — especially in her intro, where she referenced dealing with a villain in what was supposed to be her fairy tale.
She said the villain was oppressive, vain, and cruel … and to get ahead, she had to obey, be submissive, sweet and stay silent.
Aubrey referenced him again in her reveal, calling out how her “ex-boss” legally changed his middle name to “Love” a few years back. But she made a point to make a heart shape with her hands to reclaim the word “love” right then and there.
Diddy is currently behind bars and facing 3 federal charges — racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion, and transportation to engage in prostitution. His trial is set for May.

Conan O’Brien‘s joke writer wants everyone who missed the comedic timing of his Oscars bit about Kendrick Lamar and Drake‘s beef to just say that — there was no malice on the host’s part!!!
Skyler Higley, who penned the part about needing to “call Drake a pedophile” after the commercial break, tells TMZ Hip Hop … “The idea that it’s being taken as a real call-out or taking sides in any way in the beef is absurd.”

Social media immediately started buzzing with accusations Conan joined the Drake hate train in favor of Kendrick Lamar … but Higley’s been writing jokes for Conan since his late-night TV show days and says he knows a master at work when he sees one.

Skyler says the reason Conan succeeded at the Oscars was due to his care for the art of comedy, but knows the current culture tends to overshadow the craft with shock value.
He says the joke was simply a reference to Kendrick’s Super Bowl performance and a cultural moment of the past year.
DJ Akademiks didn’t take it that way and he’s currently trying to paint Conan as Drake enemy number 1 to his audience.
