Diddy's 10 Tips for a New Year's to Remember

Diddy's ten tips for a new years to remember!10. Your party spot has to set the tone for the night ... it creates the blueprint for the entire evening.

9. A great bartender ... bad drinks aren't sexy ... also, beautiful wait-staff is key.

8. Food should never interrupt your swagger ... small tapas or finger foods that aren't too messy tend to work well.

7. Music should be the soundtrack to the night ... it should match the theme ... it should match the flow.

6. Preserve the sexy ... my oldest and truest party rule. If it's about furs and diamonds, don't show up in jeans.

5. The right party people ... your tried-and-true friends that know how to get your party started, mixed with a few new characters to keep things exciting ... but everyone has to be sexy.

4. You need a great pair of shades ... because the best New Year's Eve party doesn't stop until well into the New Year.

3. You need a great host ... like me ... someone who is a master in the art of celebration.

2. Ciroc ... the world's best ultra-premium vodka ... enough said.

1. It's never sexy to be sloppy ... know your limits and drink responsibly.

Dane Cook: Factory Seconds

Comedian Dane Cook used MySpace to garner millions of techno-savvy fans across the country -- but unfortunately recruited a legion of Dane-haters in the process. TMZ ran into the love-him-or-hate-him funnyman outside the Laugh Factory last night -- where he was kidding around with the Dane devotees.


Dane cracked jokes and messed with photo-needy fans -- and at one point pulled a fake diva moment about an autograph seeker's pen, saying, "Where the f**k is the blue, man? Dane Cook signs with blue."

Sinead Back from North Pole

Who's that Christmas chick? Erin go bragh, it's Sinead O'Connor! Memba her?!
Sinead O'Connor
The former pop star popped up at the Pogues annual holiday concert in Dublin, where she sang "Fairytale of New York." Sigh. It seems like just yesterday when she was on "SNL" ripping up pictures of the Pope, but it was 15 years ago! Now Sinead Marie-Bernadette O'Connor is a separated mother of four.

Wearing one of her trademark floral print tops and a fierce black cape with some Christmasy red nails, Miss Thing is a fabulous 77 -- except for her holiday spirit -- or is she just taking paparazzi lessons from Brad Garrett?

C'mon, who doesn't love Doris?!

Have a Whale of a Time on Christmas!

O Come See the Gummi
Blubber makes him buoyant
O Come ye, O Come ye to Hawai'i
Come and behold Bear
Born a floating Oil Heir


O come, let us abhor him,
O come, let us abhor him,
O come, let us abhor him,
Gummi the Bored.

Keep your nose above water -- and don't drink and swim. Or drive. Unless you're a celebrity.

Victoria's Secret hottie Heidi Klum braved a winter blizzard in Aspen by burying herself under a plethora of garments -- lugging one of her mini-models toward warmer climes, or is that just a toy? Brr!
Heidi Klum
Heidi needs to tell her man they made a bad decision for a holiday getaway -- because a supermodel should never have to wear that much clothing. Ever.

"Idol's" Chris Sligh: Party Like a Not Star

Can't make it to Vegas or Miami to party on New Years with real celebs? Then how about a fun-filled night in Westerly, Rhode Island -- with one of your favorite "American Idol" wannabeens of yore?!
Chris Sligh
Season Six's curly-haired 29-year-old, Sideshow Bob Chris Sligh, will "headline" the alcohol-free First Night Westerly celebration, by singing at least one song at the local Y-M-C-A! Finally, an event safe for Jessica Sierra! As if Sligh weren't enough entertainment for one night, the party will also feature face painting, mimes and a karate demo. Everything in moderation, people.

Tickets cost $10 before December 25, but jump up to a whopping $14 after Christmas. It may not be the opening of an outlet mall, housing development or local balloon festival, but it's still a bargain!

Gretchen Bonaduce: Single and Smarter

It's about time Gretchen Bonaduce went out and had a good time! The soon-to-be ex wife of regular crazazy Danny Bonaduce was out at club LAX last night -- with director friend Brian Dannelly. She looked very well-rested and not at all like her former stressed-out self. What a difference a divorce makes!


The redhead had some choice words about her New Year's resolution -- saying she wants to find a nice guy who will not "shake anyone's foundation." To whom could she possibly be referring?
