Parties! The style, stars and scoop from Hollywood's hottest events

Beyoncé Knowles (at left) caused a stir even before she could be seen on the red carpet that lead into New York's famed Ziegfeld theatre for the premiere of Dreamgirls. Jamie Foxx, Queen Latifah, Liam Neeson and wife Natasha Richardson stoked the crowd's excitement as they preceeded the former front woman of Destiny's Child. Terrence Howard even assumed the role of reporter, filling in journalists on the celebrity wattage to come and adding to the film's buzz. "I just walked in with Jennifer Hudson and Eddie Murphy's coming," said the actor, adding that he'd heard the flick is "beyond incredible!" Dreamgirls opens around the country on December 25th.
