Celebrities Get Gifted for the Globes

Celebs just couldn’t get enough of the Golden Globes gift lounges this past weekend. And who could blame them, with goodies that included cell phones, watches, and vacations, it was just too hard to pass up.

At Primary Action’s Liberace Suite, A-listers and up-and-comers took home treats from Ed Hardy, Diesel, Joico, and Vintage La Rose. Our spies tell us that a stylist for Brad and Angie picked out Dainese motorcycle jackets for the adventurous couple.

While the most beautiful couple in the world were busy saving the world, actresses Angela Bassett (Akeelah and the Bee), Lisa Edelstein (House), and Jennifer Finnegan (Close to Home) couldn’t get enough of Vintage La Rose jewelry. Edelstein raved about her new gold chain link necklace with vintage Swarovski crystals; Finnegan took home a long rosary made of freshwater pearls with a vintage medal; and Bassett was intent on putting a picture of her twins inside the quarts of her new pearl locket necklace.

The absolute favorite brand of this suite was the Ed Hardy collection. Guests like Kelly Hu (In Case of Emergency), Beverly Mitchell (7th Heaven), and Becki Newton (Ugly Betty) not only walked away with tee-shirts, pumps, and hoodies, but Adam Saaks custom-cut their Ed Hardy tees while they had them on (Check Adam out at www.myspace.com/adamsaaks).

The talented actors and actresses took a break from shopping to sign a black Vespa LX50, which will be auctioned off to benefit the Lollipop Theatre Network, a charity that brings newly released films to children in pediatric wards in hospitals nationwide.

Not too far across town, stars like Tina Fey (30 Rock), Jai Rodriguez (Queer Eye for the Straight Guy), and Vanessa Williams (Ugly Betty) could be heard picking up freebies at the Access Hollywood “Stuff You Must” Lounge. Guests received annual passes for two to AMC Theatres, lizard print Carlos Falchi clutches, and dazzling Ziamond jewelry, to name a few.

When the stars wanted to catch their breath, they enjoyed manicures and hand treatments, hairstyling services from celebrity stylist Cristophe, and makeup applications and skincare consultations from Hollywood pros at the CVS Pharmacy Reinventing Beauty Spa. For every Golden Globe nominee and presenter who visited the lounge, CVS made a significant contribution on their behalf to Lollipop Theatre Network and Best Buddies, an organization dedicated to enhancing the lives of people with intellectual disabilities. Thanks to the talent, CVS generously donated $100,000 to both charities.

What are the Golden Globes without the Backstage Creations Retreat. Courtney Cox and her husband David Arquette were spotted here picking up a trip to Bora Bora and a certificate to the new Diamond Living Matrix Spa, which will be opening soon in Beverly Hills. Terrence Howard (Crash) opted for a cruise on the Cunard Queen Mary 2, while Jenna Fischer (The Office) took home T’Zerah, a luxurious skincare line.

Celebs had a chance to donate items from their gift collections to Clothes Off Our Back Foundation, an organization that benefits children’s charities. The items will be auctioned off on ebay and all proceeds will go to the charity.
