Award show season has yet to begin, but you'd swear it was Oscar time with the parade of stars that gathered at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood on Sunday night. The occasion? Condé Nast Media Group's Movies Rock: A Celebration of Music in Film, which featured electric performances from Sir Elton John, Carrie Underwood, Mary J. Blige, Queen Latifah, Usher, Beyoncé, and Jennifer Hudson, among others. Eco chic was a theme of the evening: A number of stars arrived in Chevrolet's environmentally friendly cars, and all of them— Charlize Theron, Jennifer Lopez, Kate Hudson, Harrison Ford, Billy Bob Thornton, and Quentin Tarantino included—worked the recycled green arrivals carpet. "Tonight I get to release my inner rock chick," said a Dolce & Gabbana-clad Fergie, who performed the title song from the Bond flick Live and Let Die. "It's a great way to close out an amazing year for me."

Back in New York, at the Tribeca Grand, Guy Ritchie screened his new flick, Revolver, before a crowd of Cinema Society regulars like Donna Karan, Rachel Roy, Eleanor Ylvisaker, Zani Gugelmann, and Zac Posen, as well as an impressive group of celebrities including Sarah Jessica Parker, Liza Minnelli, and Alan Cumming, the last of whom remarked, "That film had a very liberal use of lighter fluid." Blood or no blood, at the after-party at the Gramercy Park Hotel's rooftop bar, Calvin Klein and Maggie Rizer admitted they arrived as admirers of Madonna, but left as staunch Ritchie supporters. For Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, who said they were there to visit their "old friend Madonna and her handsome husband," it was a little bit easier to choose between the two: "She looks amazing, and she's wearing one of our dresses."
