Here we are at Axis/Radius for the Super Thursday party with Diddy, hanging out on the red carpet. Thus far, it's been a buffet of celebrities.

The first person we saw was race car driver Danica Patrick, who stopped to talk to us for a moment. She was the first person we saw wearing black, stilleto-heeled boots. She would not be the last. Seems to be the big red carpet fashion tonight.

We've also seen Brooke Mueller, Lucy Walsh, Copeland and Courtney Bryan, Next (onstage performing now, actually), DJ MCB, Reggie Sanders, and Wolf from American Gladiator.

David Spade just walked down the carpet, looking casual in camouflage pants and a baseball cap.

This place is packed with people, all screaming at their favorite celebs. It's gonna be a long, fun night. Stay tuned.
