IS Tim Kash trying his hand at a new career now he's been axed from Top Of The Pops? The scrawny midget, asked cool Black Eyed Peas for tips on how to strut his stuff at the EMI aftershow bash - but still made a right twit of himself.

A WHOPPING 1,000 litres of Kristal champagne were knocked back at the Sony BMG party, but my clean-living pal Natasha Bedingfield - seen here with me - didn't touch a drop.Duran have a ball

WHAT'S up with wrinkly Simon Le Bon and Nick Rhodes?

Simon, 46, pranced around the bar at the Hotel De Russie clutching a rose while wobbly sidekick Nick held a football and declared: "Look, everyone, look at my ball. Loads of stars signed it. Look!" Good job he called it a night at 3.40am...

HOLLYWOOD star Sarah Michelle Gellar is a bundle of fun. Not. The blonde A-list actress, 27, showed celebs including Nelly and z- lister Tim Kash, exactly what she thought of them at the EMI aftershow party.

Gellar looked around, sighed and left after 10 minutes.

MAROON 5 were a hit on and off stage. The boys - who scooped Best New Act - boozed big time before leaving the BMG after-show bash with a bevy of beauties. Goodness knows how they made it out of bed the next morningto fly Down Under.

RAPPER Kid Rock lashed out when a clubber had a go at him for necking a pounds 250 bottle of Krug champagne, yelling: "What's it got to do with you if I drink out of the f***ing bottle?"

Eminem snub

ALICIA Keys, Nelly and Usher pitched up for an Eminem party at his hotel after the MTV bash - but the host had opted for an early night. I'm told Slim Shady, due on at the Islington Academy last night, has gorged on Big Macs since jetting in from Rome.
