Rap queen Lil Kim took a night off from motherhood to enjoy the Oscars festivities going on in Hollywood. The new mom trekked it to Elton John’s 23rd Annual AIDS Foundation viewing Oscar party in L.A.

R&B songstress Toni Braxton was her usual sexy self on the carpet styling in a Shady Zeineldine couture gown. Ms. Braxton is fresh off a Grammy high after winning a Grammy Award for Best R&B Album with Babyface for their joint album Love, Marriage & Divorce. She looks great!

Best Man star Taye Diggs and his girlfriend Amanza Smith Brown were all wrapped up in love. We wonder how it was watching his soon-to-be ex-wife Idina Menzel on the stage. He likely had no qualms about it being that he and Idina seem to be handling their divorce without any hiccups.
