Right after the 83rd annual Academy Awards, celebrities headed over to the Governor’s Ball taking place next door where guests were treated to a special menu created by Wolfgang Puck.

Appetizers included a sushi and shellfish station, smoked salmon on Oscar flatbread with caviar and crème fraiche, and black truffle pizza with ricotta and thyme.

There were three of Wolfgang’s signature salads, pan-roasted Dover sole, vegetable risotto “paella” and asparagus with Iberico ham and black truffle aioli.

In the background, a live band played and Moet and Chandon Champagne was found everywhere for consumption. This year’s ball was designed to resemble classic Hollywood nightclubs with décor modeled after three musical styles: classic standards, Latin and swing.

Here are some more photos from the night:

Vanity Fair’s Hollywood Issue Features “The Most Exciting Actors Of The Moment”

For its17th annual Vanity Fair Hollywood Issue, the magazine got together some of Hollywood’s biggest celebs for a three-page foldout cover shot by Norman Jean Roy.

If you are on CelebMagnet’s homepage, click on “Read More” below to see the full three-page cover..

Upcoming Oscar hosts Anne Hathaway and James Franco are featured on the cover as are pretty boys Jake Gyllenhaal and Ryan Reynolds.

The magazine decided to go “back to the basics – no teenagers, no penguins, no (full-on) nudity, just the most exciting actors and actresses of the moment.”

Other stars on the cover include newly-cast Spider-man Andrew Garfield, Jennifer Lawrence, Anthony Mackie, Olivia Wilde, Jesse Eisenberg, Mila Kunis, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Rashida Jones, Garrett Hedlund, Noomi Rapace, and Robert Duvall.

Vanity Fair‘s fashion and style director Jessica Diehl said: “We wanted to evoke the glamour of 1930s Shanghai, an era of smoky, alluring elegance. We had the gentlemen looking dashing in black tie, whilst the ladies were radiant in spring’s gowns – from Gucci to Yves Saint Laurent – and glittering with diamonds from Chanel and other arbiters of glamour.”



The issue hits newsstands February 3 in New York and Los Angeles and then nationally on February 8.
