Stars mix things up at cocktail party

Posted by Jane Murphy

 

Last night saw some of our favourite celebrities bowl up for the Cinema Against Aids cocktail party at Hotel du Cap-Eden Roc in Antibes, just along the coast from Cannes.

Among them? Liz Hurley (above) looked rather lovely in a strapless sky blue gown - while Dita Von Teese was as eye-popping as ever in this see-through creation by Jean-Paul Gaultier…

 

Before showing up to the party, the burlesque queen posted on Twitter: “My dress should get me suitably ridiculed in the US = success!”

Well, the Americans might mock, Dita - but here in Penge, everyone loves your frock. In fact, I’m thinking of wearing something similar when I nip down to Lidl after I’ve finished this blog.

Meanwhile, a super-glammed-up Hayden Panettiere spent a rare night away from rumoured new fella, T4 love god Steve Jones…

 

And Verne Troyer showed up - making one of his first public appearances since he was so cruelly robbed of Celebrity Big Brother glory by Ulrika Jonsson earlier in the year…

 

Finally, Annie Lennox took to the stage and dedicated a song to late actress Natasha Richardson…

 

I’m not sure Annie’s gloves were wholly necessary - but each to their own…

Anyway, it sounds like the evening was a roaring success - largely thanks to a charity auction, hosted by leg-flasher extraordinaire Sharon Stone.

Among the items up for grabs were a kiss from Robert Pattinson, a tennis lesson with Monica Seles and a cigar saxophone autographed by Bill Clinton. Nice!

Liz hurley looks fab, i think it's the first time i've seen her without her chest hanging out! OH Dita!! What the hell it that dress?? You usully look great but this is just a crime! Hayden looks okay, except for that trail which looks like it used to be part of the dress, it totally ruins it. Verne looks dashing, but very silly with those glasses! And Annie looks TERRIBLE! Love her songs but her style is just another thing all together!
