Pop of colour: Cameron Diaz swapped her Gucci dress for a Victoria Beckham number at the Vanity Fair party

She looked a dream in cream for the Oscars earlier in the evening - but Cameron Diaz squeezed deliciously into orange to party at the Vanity Fair bash following last night.

The actress's Gucci gown, which boasted a simple basque with a dramatic train, seemed to show her minimal curves to great effect, but the Bad Teacher star truly dazzled in a Victoria Beckham design at the Sunset Tower Hotel.

And she wasn't the only one who made a quick-change for the after-party, with Jennifer Lopez, Emma Stone and Irina Shayk among those who opted for a second gown to hob-nob late into the night.

Slinky: The bold tangerine-coloured gown, which featured the designer's signature statement zip at the back, hugged Cameron's figure in all the right places

The 39-year-old star modelled the very bright dress on the red-carpet and found herself sharing a joke with tennis player Venus Williams as they both posed for the cameras.

Cameron accessorised the slinky gown with a simple snakeskin clutch and a pair of oversized diamond chandelier earrings.

She kept her make-up simple as she had before and her blonde crop stayed in it's chic blown out style.

Different dress, same cleavage: It seems Jennifer Lopez is a fan of the plunging neckline

Inside Cameron mingled with her fellow A-list friends, including Kate Hudson who looked simply ravishing in a red fringed and beaded gown which featured a daring plunging back.

She had earlier arrived on the arm of her fiance Muse frontman Matt Bellamy.

The two ladies cuddled up for a snap as Cameron appeared to be enjoying a glass of wine and Kate champagne.

Emma Stone wore a Giambattista Valli gown to the Oscars, but swapped it for sophisticated black Chanel

Hudson, who gave birth to her second child Bingham Hawn Bellamy just seven months ago, looked superslim in the stunning ensemble, not an ounce of baby weight visible on her frame.

Cameron wasn't the only one to change up her outfit for last night's post-Oscars bash.

True Grit star Shailene Woodley also slipped out of her white, long-sleeved Valentino couture gown into a beaded long-sleeeved party dress with floral design.

Supermodel Irina Shayk wowed the crowd with her after-party gown.

Freshening up: Shailene Woodley swapped her austere Valentino dress for a much more fun floral number by Proenza Schouler

The 26-year-old Russian model and girlfriend of footballer Cristiano Ronaldo showed off her sublime figure in a floor-length gold liquid gown.

The golden hue accentuated her deep tan and flaunted her best assets in all the right places.

Not too bothered about posing on the red-carpet was Kate Bosworth, who rather seemed more interested in cuddling up to her boyfriend Michael Polish

Not one to miss an opportunity: Irina Shayk didn't attend the Oscars but she changed anyway after attending the Elton John AIDS Foundation viewing Party


The couple only had eyes for each other as they entered the event.

And it's no wonder why, Kate looked elegant in a sheer black beaded dress paired with some chic Christian Louboutin stilettos, while Michael was dapper in his black tuxedo.

Cameron wasn't the only one that wore a Beckham design, the designer herself turned up to the event in floor-length strapless gown from her own collection that showed off her slender figure.

Strike a pose: Cameron and Jennifer Lopez do an identical over the shoulder pose at the awards ceremony

The 37-year-old star kept her usual serious face in tact as she arrived at the Vanity Fair Oscar party in West Hollywood with her footballer husband David.

As the British couple posed for photographers before heading inside, they appeared to be in very different moods with David laughing as he followed his wife.

The stone-coloured garment was completed with a black leather waist belt and not much else.

Party time: Cameron and Kate cuddled up inside the party and enjoyed some cocktails and champagne

The brunette even decided to keep her look minimalistic when it came to her accessories and wore just a large gem ring which she teamed with dark nail varnish.

She wore her hair up in a bun and kept her eye-make up smoky while her lips wore a hint of nude lipstick.

LA Galaxy star, David, looked just as smart yet kept it simple in a black Dior tux complete with a bow tie and a white shirt.

And for a moment, David even let his wife take centre stage and allowed her to be photographed in front of the hedge bearing the Vanity Fair logo all by herself.

The couple were closely followed by their famous friends Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes.

They too posed with their arms around each other, but this time both of them were smiling.

Talking point of the night: Sacha Baron Cohen made sure he was the talking point of the night by tipping 'King Jong II's ashes' over Ryan Seacrest, no mean feat at the star-studded Oscars

Sacha Baron Cohen used the Oscars to pull off yet another audacious publicity coup to promote his latest movie, The Dictator.

Initially banned by the Academy from pulling such a stunt, bosses finally relented and allowed the British comedian to take to the carpet dressed as General Aladeen, who promptly tipped an urn containing 'the ashes of Kim Jong II' over a furious Ryan Seacrest.

Cohen was quickly bundled away from the angry E! presenter in an unceremonious fashion. But what he lacked in dignity he made up for in humour.

Scroll down for video...


Guerilla promotion: Sacha Baron Cohen arrived dressed as the star of his next movie, The Dictator, General Aladeen, carrying an urn he joked contained the ashes of the late Kim Jong II

Flanked by sexy military assistants carrying flowers, Sacha Baron Cohen's antics were a massive hit with everyone apart from his po-faced victim.

Cohen's latest creation received the biggest cheer of the night, and made himself the hottest topic of conversation in a matter of mere seconds.

Stars like Tina Fey waited in line to pose by the powder, and over at the Vanity Fair bash - Olivia Wilde mentioned in an interview that she hoped Cohen would bring the ashes to the party later.

It all started tamely for Seacrest when asked: 'Who are you wearing?'

Cohen replied gamely: 'I'm wearing John Galliano, but the socks are from K-Mart! As Saddam Hussein once said to me, socks are socks, don't waste money.'


Taking his chance: Cohen tips the powder over Ryan's expensive Burberry suit


Too slow: The security team jumped in but Cohen had managed to liberally cover Seacrest

Quite a spill: This shot shows how much powder Cohen managed to spill before security stepped in, he saved thousands on publicity with the prank

But then he added: 'I love it here because it gave me an opportunity to bring my dear friend and tennis partner, Kim Jong-il.

All the while showing a gold urn with the North Korean leader who died in December emblazoned on its front.


Pure rage: Seacrest's face was contorted in anger after the stunt, when Giuliana Rancic said he was lucky he yelled: 'Lucky? You think this is lucky?'

Creating a stir: Aside from Seacrest, everyone loved Cohen's antics but he was forced to ditch the powder immediately lest he sprinkle any other stars


He said: 'It was my dream to come to the Oscars and be sprinkled over the red carpet and Halle Berry's chest again.'

Then he appeared to stumble and poured the contents all over Seacrest's Burberry suit.

The mixture, which turned out to be Bisquik pancake mix, coated Seacrest quite liberally, and he didn't see the funny side.

Stealing the show: Sacha's creation drew the biggest applause of the evening so far


Cohen undeterred and no doubt happy his stunt had worked wonderfully, added: 'Now when people ask what you're wearing, you will say Kim Jong-il!"

'Part of me thought he would be up to something!' said Ryan, 'He was either going to do that to me or George Clooney, right?'

Seacrest then wrote on his Twitter page: 'My mom always told me to pack two jackets for red carpets, always wondered why. Now I know.'

He later added: 'A lot of people hitting up afterparties tonight...me? I'm hosting a pancake breakfast tomorrow.'

His co-presenters Kelly Osbourne and Giuliania Rancic were delighted, however.
Osbourne chuckled and said it was 'priceless,' while Rancic tried to comfort Seacrest by reminding him that he will be trending worldwide.


Ashes to Ashes: The stunt was the talking point of the night as stars including Tina Fey and Shailene Woodley posed by the powder in the red carpet


The joke's over: Muppets star Jason Segel looks bemused as the Academy team vacuum the carpet

Whole lotta leg: Angelina Jolie flashes more than a peek of her pin as she walks the red carpet at the 84th Academy awards in Hollywood last night


She has faced some criticism in recent weeks over her dull taste in red carpet attire during the promotional tour for her film In The Land Of Blood And Honey, choosing matronly gowns and drab colour tones over her previously sexed-up image.

But Angelina Jolie enjoyed a return to her old cheeky, provocative self last night at the Oscars, flashing acres of long, lithe leg in a daring thigh-high slit gown.

The actress' apparent determination to show off her enviable limb attracted the desired attention from fans, fellow guests and television viewers - but not all of it was positive.


While the 36-year-old sashayed down the red carpet before the ceremony, stealing the spotlight from Best Actor nominee Brad Pitt with her leg-baring antics, social networking sites were quickly heating up with thousands of comments about 'Angie's right leg.'

As she posed at different points along the red carpet the actress was captured continuously adjusting her Atelier Versace gown to ensure the cameras caught the leg from every angle.

The limb in question quickly became a trending topic on Twitter, with users debating over her enviably trim thigh, the slightly awkward and over-enthusiastic pose, and joking about the emphasis on her right leg in particular.

Darling, isn't my right leg wonderful? Angelina posed up a storm in her black velvet Atelier Versace gown with Brad Pitt by her side


From every angle: The actress was seen constantly adjusting her dress as she posed on the red carpet to ensure photographers captured her thigh-high slit, and even seemed reluctant to cease posing as Brad dragged her away (right)

'Rainman would have no problem counting Angelia Jolie's leg,' one Twitter user joked, while another added: 'Fun fact: Angelina Jolie only shaved her right leg tonight.'

It wasn't long before a parody Twitter account called 'Angie's Right Leg' had been set up, declaring, 'I'm a leg, get a load of me!' and 'You have to admit I'm one hell of a leg!'

So far the account has attracted over 10,000 followers.

You thought it was over... guess again! The Salt star continued her evening of flashing the flesh onstage as she presented an award for Best Adapted Screenplay

And if fans thought they had seen the last of the limb when the awards ceremony commenced, they were certainly wrong.

Perhaps already informed of the hoopla by her people, or simply enjoying the attention, the actress continued to pose up a storm when she took to the stage to present an award.

Walking onstage to present the gong for Best Adapted Screenplay, Angelina stopped at the microphone for several seconds with her hand on her hip and that leg on full display again.

Lapping up the attention: Ange remained in her pose for several seconds as she enjoyed wolf whistles and cheers from the audience

With wolf whistles and cheering from the audience, Jolie giggled at the reaction before continuing with the presentation.

But not everybody was as taken with Angelina. The screenwriters for The Descendants, who won the award, were quick to mock her as they accepted the award.

While Alexander Payne, who also directed and produced the film, made his speech, fellow screenwriters Nat Faxon and Jim Rash mimicked Jolie's pose in an exaggerated fashion, drawing laughs from the audience.

'I'm one hell of a leg': A parody Twitter account quickly surfaced and has so far attracted over 10,000 followers

This morning, Angelina's father Jon Voight defended her antics during an appearance on Daybreak in the UK.

Asked what he thought of her posing, the actor said: 'She comes out and does this pose and waits until people get it, it was so great. The audience responded so wonderfully too, with whistles and everything.

'And then she laughed and took it in and went on with her speech. So who knows? You can never tell about these moments that pop up out of a show like this.'
