After an evening of big wins and memorable performances, music's hottest acts partied like true rock stars around Hollywood. Beyonce (in Georges Chakra) was still in shock over her duet with living legend Tina Turner when she hit the Sony/BMG after-party at the Beverly Hills Hotel. "I still can't believe it happened," gushed Miss B, who mingled with fellow post-Grammy guests like John Mayer. "Of all the performances I’ve done in my life, this was the ultimate!"

Though she didn't take home any trophies, Fergie was content to celebrate her banner year with fiance Josh Duhamel at L.A.'s legendary Palms restaurant for the Universal Grammy celebration.

After arriving at the Sony/BMG bash hand-in-hand with Chace Crawford (not pictured), Carrie Underwood (in Naeem Khan) headed straight for the buffet.

Underwood-who accessorized her Grammy-gold dress with 8-carat Chopard yellow diamond earrings-exclaimed. "I thought Brad Paisley did great. And the Foo Fighters are one of my favorites-I went to see them in concert a few weeks ago."

"For me it's important to be formal, but I have to show youth so I do the jacket and jeans look," Groban (in Dolce amp Gabbana and Ernest Sewn) mused. "I wanted to be appropriate, elegant and fashion-forward," Legend (in Christopher Bevans) explained. As for the recipe for the perfect Grammy after-party? "More champagne!" Legend declared, holding up his glass.
