Though Lydia Hearst was supposedly hosting Social Life magazine’s July 4 party in Water Mill, she called the event’s organizers at the last minute to say she was “in a hospital emergency room with kidney stones.” 90210’s AnnaLynne McCord and Twilight’s Kellan Lutz made it, though, and spent the night making out in the bathroom.

Chace Crawford, Jared Leto, and Zac Efron have all trimmed their man-bangs, and Penn Badgley’s sideburns continue to lengthen chinward.
