Paramount hosted a Golden Globes celebration for its nominees at the snazzy Cipriani Beverly Hills on Saturday night — where stars including Billy Bob Thornton, Ewan McGregor, Anthony Mackie and Kathy Bates circulated, along with iconic producer Jerry Bruckheimer and “How Do I Live” hitmaker Diane Warren.
Also spotted at the starry bash was “Smile 2” star (and son of Jack Nicholson) Ray Nicholson, as well as “Landman” stars Ali Larter and Michelle Randolph, David Arquette, Heather Graham, Jane Seymour, Jason Ritter, Haley Joel Osment, Keegan-Michael Key, Morris Chesnut, Matthew Lillard, Wilmer Valderrama, Garrett Hedlund, Ziggy Marley, Kelly Rowland, Jordana Brewster, Paris Jackson and the cast of “September 5” directed by Tim Fehlbaum.
The sleek Cipriani Los Angeles space — which has been popular with celebs from Jennifer Lopez to Meghan Markle — also hosted guests in its second floor jazz café, via a hidden elevator in the kitchen, and in a moodily lighted outdoor space in back.
The luxe resto served up its famed pastas, like penne al pomodoro e basilico, organic rigatoni Bolognese and fusilli with zucchini and shrimp, as well as prosciutto, meatballs, croquettes, bruschetta, tuna tartar and more.
Waiters also passed the place’s signature Bellini cocktail, as well as citrus cosmos and a “Golden Paloma” concoction in honor of Sunday’s awards show at the nearby Beverly Hilton.
Hollywood’s favorite DJ, Michelle Pesce, spun tunes in a sequin dress behind pink vinyl platters on her turntables.
Paramount is also behind the action smash “Gladiator II,” and execs at the fete included co-CEOs George Cheeks, Chris McCarthy and Brian Robbins.
