What Went Down at The Venetian and Palazzo NYE Parties

Where: Las Vegas, NV, United States, 89109

We sort of wish we'd been ringing in 2009 with a collection of entirely random celebrities that nobody has really heard from since 2002 just so we'd have a fun story to tell our friends today. Think about how cool it would have been to brag that you partied with Mena Suvari, David Spade, Pauly Shore (!) and Coolio in one night.

Such a scenario would have been possible if we'd been in Vegas to celebrate the arrival of 2009 at The Venetian and The Palazzo, where Carmen Electra served as "mistress of ceremonies" at TAO and Fergie hosted and performed the first NYE celebration at LAVO.

At LAVO, we hear Fergie gave a concert prior to midnight, and then ran over to her man Josh Duhamel for a kiss before the two of them "partied the night away." Meanwhile, over at TAO at The Venetian:

Carmen Electra hosted the New Year's Eve festivities [...] Immediately after ringing in the New Year, Carmen went to her table by the dance floor and graciously posed for photos with fans and onlookers. She then danced the night away with Rob getting 2009 off to a great start. Brody Jenner was also celebrating with girlfriend Jayde Nicole and mom Linda Thompson [...] Brody and his mom rocked out to the sounds of DJ Vice and hyped up the packed house of club goers.

So there you have it; while you were busy with whatever you were doing on New Year's Eve, you could have been partying it up with Brody and his mom. And Pauly Shore.
