Posted: 24 Jul 2011 08:19 AM PDT

LaLa Anthony made her way to Vegas to party it up with her "bestie" Kim Kardashian for her bachelorette party.  Kim & Kris Humphries had joint bachelor/bachelorette parties at both TAO & Lavo.  WHy?  Cheaper to shoot them at the same time for their reality show.  Of course.

 

Pics of the fun night inside...

Kim may have said a few days ago she thought bachelorette parties are "cheesy," but her sisters Khloe & Kourtney (she's only having all her sisters as bridesmaids by the way) planned a naughty sin city night for the bride-to-be:

And the penis straw WOULD be a brown one.  Malika Haqq & LaLa sipped their drinks from a naughty party favor.

Some seemed to like it more than others.

LaLa snapped a pic of herself before leaving out.

She rocked a cute blue dress and kicked it with Kourtney & Britny Gastineau.

Twins and Kim & Khloe's god friends Malika & Khadija Haqq were there of course.

They all partied hard with the drinks of course.  Don't get any idas back there Rob.  Larsa Pippen (not pictured) was there as well.

The girls had dinner beforehand and Kim snapped a pic with her future sister-in-law Kael Humphries.


 

And then Kris H. came over to say hi while his bachelor party was going on over at LAVO:

Of course his fellow NBA colleague Lamar Odom was on hand.

The fellas had dinner beforehand.

Scott and Rob were there to party of course.

I'm sure fun times were had by all.

BEYONCE: Thanks For The Target Flash Mob!

Posted: 23 Jul 2011 09:36 AM PDT

A Beyonce fan got the "Thank You" of a lifetime when the "End of Time" singer issued a personal note to him via Youtube.  Beyonce tells the creator of that Target flash mob video that's making rounds on the net how she really feels.

 

Vids inside....

 

Earlier this week, a video hit Youtube that shows a flash mob taking place at Target.  A fan named Todrick Hall and a whole lot of dancers took over the Target right in front of Beyonce's 4 display.  And he posted the video on Youtube.

Bey's stylist showed it to her, and she loved it.  So she decided to thank Todrick on Youtube saying it made her really happy and she wants to do that choreography next time she's in Target.

Peep her Thank You above, and the actual flash mob below:

Sweet!
