Rockin’ at Graydon’s party

Rolling Stones legend Mick Jagger and rock-star names from Hollywood, Wall Street and media all rubbed shoulders at Vanity Fair’s viewing-party dinner last night, the prelude to editor Graydon Carter‘s after-party at Hollywood’s Sunset Tower Hotel — the Oscar weekend’s hottest ticket.

Among those turning heads at the glam gathering were teen couple Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez. They shared the spectacular dining room specially built over the hotel pool with luminaries including Twitter founder Jack Dorsey, who brought Ruzwana Bashir, the first British-born Asian woman to become president of the Oxford Union, in 2004.

But for all the fun, viewing-party guests didn’t seem impressed with Oscar hosts James Franco and Anne Hathaway‘s attempts at comedy. Bill Maher tweeted: “On the lameness of the comedy, Arianna [Huffington] told me, ‘It’s excruciating for me, I can only imagine what it’s like for you.’ ”

George Hamilton, Anjelica Huston, Steve Martin and Joan Collins were on Carter’s guest list, too, along with the toast of young Hollywood, Emma Stone, plus Jon Hamm of “Mad Men” and Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer of “True Blood,” Gwyneth Paltrow, Sandra Bullock, Naomi Watts and Liev Schreiber, Rob Lowe, Sidney Poitier, Don Rickles and John Mellencamp’s soon-to-be ex-wife, Elaine Irwin.

Fashion royalty included Diane von Furstenberg, Tom Ford, Tory Burch, Donna Karan and L’Wren Scott. But there could have been a tense moment had Ford bumped into towering Italian investor Jean Pigozzi, who told Vanity Fair last year that Ford had said to him, “I don’t want big fat guys like you in my shop.”

Also there were new NBC Universal CEO Steve Burke, Comcast Chairman and CEO Brian Roberts, PayPal co-founder Elon Musk and Anderson Cooper.
