Nothing but parties, parties and more parties

By Robin Leach

Socialites Nicky Hilton and Kourtney Kardashian, along with their controversial galpal Courtenay Semel and a Keeping Up With the Kardashians film crew in tow partied at the new Sushi Samba hotspot in the Venetian. Kourtney had filmed her shopping spree earlier at the Dior, Annie Cream Cheese, Ralph Lauren and Poleci stores in the Palazzo mall. In the new "outing" of Hollywood it was safe to say Courtenay came without her new galpal Tia Tequila, although she still made headlines here in an angry, confrontational incident with a security guard at Pure nightclub in Caesars Palace, where she broke down while losing her cell phone. Nicky was solo, too, without beaufriend David Katzenberg. The groups partied at separate tables and didn't even acknowledge each other. You’ll remember that the Hilton and Kardashian sisters, and former BFFs Paris and Kim, famously parted ways, solidified by Paris's comment that Kim's famous rear reminded her of "cottage cheese in a trash bag."

R&B dance queen Lady Gaga hosted the MAGIC fashion week kickoff party at the Bank nightclub. She performed her debut single "Just Dance" for the crowded club. Lady Gaga, who wrote hit songs for the Pussycat Dolls, has two others on Britney Spears' upcoming album.

NBA star Damon Jones, the Milwaukee Bucks point guard, celebrated his birthday there with Antoine Walker from the Minnesota Timberwolves and fellow NBA stars Cuttino Mobley and Paul Pierce. They all held center-court sipping Ace of Spades Champagne all evening long at their VIP table. Also in the VIP section nearby were former boxing champ Floyd Mayweather and legendary sports icon Michael Jordon.
