Emma Stone

posed with InStyle Managing Editor Ariel Foxman among the sea of celebs gathered at the underwater-themed Warner Brothers/InStyle Golden Globes after-party held at the Beverly Hilton. Leonardo DiCaprio, Charlize Theron and new mom Tina Fey were among the revelers, the last marveling at the rare late night out with Amy Poehler and Will Arnett. "We're all parents. We agreed, 'We're having something to eat, and we’re all going home!" Sofia Vergara simply hoped to make her son's night memorable: "He wants to take a picture with Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie-are they here?" But she didn’t let potential star-sightings get in the way of challenging Ty Burrell to a dance-off to Usher's "DJ Got Us Fallin' In Love." It was that kind of night!

and Kate Beckinsale (in Roberto Cavalli) caught up in an environment as beautiful as they are.

The night featured a palette of dark teal, navy, silver, and coral colors. A 20-foot long, 11 foot-high interactive LED light sculpture transmitted a custom commissioned water-themed art installation video. Thousands of small monitors projected one large, moving, and life-like image.
