Kim Kardashian jetted back from promoting Disaster Movie in New York just in time to hit Verizon's launch party for the pink BlackBerry Curve. Guess the girl really loves her gadgets.

"I hate the iPhone because I can't type on it!" Kim dished on why she prefers BlackBerrys.

The Keeping Up With the Kardashians star was also happy to talk about her latest TV project, Dancing With the Stars.

But given the show's track record for sparking romance rumors, is boyfriend Reggie Bush worried about Kim getting physical with her partner, Mark Ballas?

That was fast.

There have been reports of problems since the place opened in January 2008. It struggled to open for New Year's Eve after reportedly failing inspection.

Disgruntled employees who were fired or resigned also complained to local media shortly after its opening.

The space will reportedly by turned into a sports bar by the hotel. But Jay's not down for the count yet, he still plans to open 40/40 Clubs in Chicago, Tokyo and Macau.

Billy Ray Cyrus didn't celebrate his birthday with a blowout, like his daughter Miley plans to throw at Disneyland for her Sweet 16, complete with fireworks and a musical performance.

Instead, the Cyrus clan feted their father with...Chinese food?

That's right. Miley's fam, including her mom, brother and sister, headed to Studio City's City Wok for a low-key dinner together. (We would have opted for P.F. Chang's, personally.)

So what'd Miles get her daddy dearest for his 47th day?

Let's say you're Nastia Liukin and you just got back from the Olympics in Beijing, where you won five medals. What's the first thing you do?

Head to Beso, apparently. The golden gymnast hit Eva Longoria Parker's restaurant with some girlfriends and her bitchy handler in tow.

While Nastia remained quiet as fans pleaded for her autograph, her publicist barked, "She can't," as she ordered people out of the way.

What, are her hands tired or something?

Celebs did some serious political partying last night at the Black & White Gala for Barack Obama.

Although the presidential nominee wasn't in attendance, plenty of stars were there to show their support, like Lucy Liu and Nia Long.

VIP tickets to the fancy fete were $2,300 a person, which included munchies like crudités, olives and eggplant and musical stylings from a seven-person gospel choir.

So who else hit the bash for Barack, held at a private estate in Bel-Air?

Was it a full moon last night?

By the way celebs were acting at Crown Bar, something was definitely up.

Adrian Grenier departed the club in a bright-red vintage minivan. Not exactly eco-friendly—and definitely not stylish, either.

Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo made a more typical departure, leaving in a frenzy of flashbulbs.

But leave it to Lindsay Lohan to take the duck-and-cover approach literally...opting to hide under a pink blanket while Sam Ronson drove their getaway car.

What gives, guys?

Newly single gal-pals Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt painted the town green last night.

The Devil Wears Prada costars hit the Green Door for jazz night, where they reserved a private table complete with bottle service.

After smoking breaks on the patio and chats with friends and Industry types, the two friends decided to sing backup for the house band just before last call.

"They were great," an onlooker tells E! News of their duet. The babes belted out two different songs, including an upbeat number and a sultry tune, before hopping in a chauffeured SUV around 2 a.m.

Good to see their recent breakups aren't getting the best of them.

Did Blake Lively and Leighton Meester have to do much acting for their buzzed/blogged-about fight scene in an upcoming episode of Gossip Girl?

The two are rumored to be less than friendly in real life, so maybe their characters' on-camera catfight, complete with hair pulling, wasn't too much of a stretch.

"Blake was coming at me and I was scared," Leighton told E! News at the show's second-season premiere party held in the Hamptons.

But for Blake, the scene was more funny than frightening. "We were laughing so hard...it was 1a.m. and it was rainy out," she dished. "We were ad-libbing."

We so believe you on that one, B.
