It was a very VIP occasion for Kevin Jonas and his entourage, as they celebrated the singer's 24th birthday at Chateau Nightclub & Gardens at the Paris hotel in Las Vegas, on Saturday.
The eldest Jonas brother -- dressed in head-to-toe Christian Dior -- brought along his wife Danielle and brother Joe, who made an appearance on the red carpet before heading inside to party.
And while the Disney stars may be multi-millionaires, they keep it simple when it comes to gift giving. When asked what Joe Jonas gifted him this year, Kevin replied: "He didn't get me anything except for him being here. We're kind of past giving gifts."
The 24-year-old birthday boy was also presented with a surprise guitar-shaped birthday cake, lined by cake pops and carted in by French-maid cocktail waitresses, who fanned the cake with large and colorful Peacock feathers and flashing blue and red lights. What more could you wish for?

It was one of the most memorable experiences of his life, and after attending the Marine Cops Ball on Saturday, Justin Timberlake took to his blog to share a few details of an evening he would "never forget".
The Social Network star was invited to the 236th Marine Corps Birthday Ball in Richmond, Virginia via YouTube by Corporal Kelsey De Santis, and he was more than thrilled to attend.
Timberlake had such a great time, he blogged on Sunday after the ball:
"I knew I would have an evening that I wouldn't forget... Something I could tell my friends about. What I didn't know was how moved I would be by the whole experience. I've always been very vocal about my support of our Armed Forces. I've always felt like they offered us the opportunity to live our lives freely without the fear that so many other nations have to endure still to this day. So, to say I was stoked to be there would be more than accurate."
The singer also confessed he was "almost brought to tears" during a video tribute to Marines who were called to action during the Pearl Harbor/WW2 and the September 11 terrorist attacks, which included first-hand accounts from Marines who were on the scene.

And how did Corporal Kelsey feel about having the sexy superstar on her arm all night?
"She seemed to me to be so humble and honest... Very cool. She also simultaneously seemed like she was nervous about the whole evening and if I was going to enjoy myself. "Are you ok?" she asked 2 or 3 times. "I hope you are having fun. I have to tell you, it's not every day that I meet a 23-year-old girl and she's more worried about if I'm having fun or if I'm comfortable! Last night changed my life and I will never forget it."
Meanwhile Mila Kunis, Justin's Friends With Benefits costar, will attend a Marine Corps Ball with Sergeant Scott Moore on Nov. 18 in Greenville, North Carolina.

Lindsay and Ali Lohan kept it local Saturday night for dinner, heading to The Tasting Kitchen just minutes away from Lindsay's Venice pad.
Lindsay's blonde locks were bright and bouncy and Ali appears to be growing into her changing body.
The younger Lohan girl came under fire recently for her ultra-thin model's frame, but in our pictures, it appears Ali has gained back a few pounds.
The pair, along with some of Lindsay's pals, were at the gourmet restaurant from about 8:30 - 10:30pm -- not too late! Perhaps Linds has her partying ways in-check after all her recent legal troubles. Keep it up, Lilo!

Dakota Fanning, 17, and sis Elle, 13, are two of the most sought-after young actresses in Hollywood today but in their interviews with W magazine, they appear to be normal teenage girls who love reality TV and fashion.
Dakota recently posed for a provocative Marc Jacobs perfume ad that got plenty of criticism from conservatives and which was even pulled from British publications, but she keeps an open mind about sexuality. The college freshman, just enrolled at NYU, tells the mag she remembers her first on-screen kiss in Sweet Home Alabama when she was 7 years old, saying she wasn't nervous at all to shoot the scene. Neither was she nervous shooting the sexy fragrance campaign with celebrated photographer Terry Richardson and neither was she weirded out by starring opposite Sean Penn in her first film. The girl has nerves of steal!
And an interesting fact about her sister Elle? She still takes ballet five days a week! Elle also talks about her first trip to Paris, when she was invited to the Chanel show during Fashion Week. She said it was a dream come true and that her dream job would be shooting a film in the City of Lights.
Uh, yeah ... us too! And being a Fanning girl wouldn't be so bad either!
