It’s the concert that everybody has been talking about all week, and last night Madonna’s Dodger Stadium gig was well-attended by some of Hollywood’s top celebrities.

Of course, it didn’t hurt that Madge announced that she’d be welcoming guest performers Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake to her stage.

Heidi Klum and Kate Moss both enjoyed the show, as well as singer/actress Jennifer Lopez, and actresses Amanda Bynes, Tila Tequila, and Lucy Liu.

But the most noteworthy celeb sighting of the night was most definitely “Heroes” hottie Hayden Panettiere, who showed off some serious skin in a matador-inspired black jacket/black trousers getup complete with a gold leash-style necklace and bright red lipstick.

Madonna is teaming with Gucci and a galaxy of stars to raise money for orphans in Malawi.

The former “material girl” will host the fundraiser - including a dinner, musical performance and party - on Feb. 6 to open Gucci’s new store on New York’s Fifth Avenue, Reuters reported.

“I am grateful that Gucci is joining forces with me to bring attention to a country with millions of children in desperate need of our help,” Madonna said in a statement. “Raising Malawi has already done tremendous work in helping these children. But we have much more to do and this event will surely bring us closer to our goal.”

The extravaganza is expected to raise at least $2 million to benefit UNICEF and the charity Madonna co-founded in 2006, Raising Malawi, which helps the country’s one million orphans, many of whose parents died of AIDS.

She is joined by a long list of celebrity co-chairs for the event, including Adrien Brody, Salma Hayek, Tea Leoni, Lucy Liu, Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher and Gwyneth Paltrow.

Madonna and Ritchie’s bid to adopt David has hit several stumbling blocks, but Malawi’s High Court is slated to rule next year on whether the two should be allowed to formally adopt the child.

• Bruce Willis, sharing some ice cream with Karen McDougal, a former Playboy Playmate

of the Year, during a vacation in Saint-Tropez. The pair split off for a

bit, with Willis stopping in for a haircut at Jacques Dessange and a walk

around the town’s Quai St. Joseph, while McDougal went shopping. The pair

also took a beachside stroll, and headed to lunch at Le Voile Rouge

beachclub.

• Paris Hilton, hiding out (and crouching down) in

the back of a the Diesel bookstore at the Malibu Country Mart. Why the

covert tactics? A bookstore source tells us that the heiress just didn’t

want her picture taken by the throng of paparazzi - especially since a

local police officer was outside to check out the commotion. Hilton

stayed in the store for about 10 minutes, then headed next door to Pet

Headquarters, where she browsed through the dog-leash section but left

empty-handed. Hilton wasn’t as camera shy in this store, posing

for pictures with fellow pet lovers.

• Paul McCartney, taking in a James Taylor concert as part of the Hampton Social @ Ross concert series with a group that included an unidentified female friend, his daughter Stella and her husband. McCartney even showed off some fun dance moves for his daughter. Other celebs in attendance: Mischa Barton, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, a pregnant Jill Hennessy and Christie Brinkley, who briefly chatted with the former Beatle.

• With T.R. Knight holding her hand, Drew

Barrymore took Las Vegas by storm to celebrate the birthday of a longtime

friend. Barrymore and her posse began with dinner at Stack Restaurant and Bar where they enjoyed steak and Kobe sashimi. Later, the group took in the Beatles-inspired Cirque du Soleil show, LOVE, and after the performance, Barrymore, Knight and company hit up Jet Nightclub for more

good times. A source tells us: “She and T.R. %26#91;held%26#93; hands all

night.” At the club, the group hung out in a VIP area behind the deejay booth,

though Barrymore “was dancing so much that she hardly sat down,” a source tells us.

• Lucy Liu, dining with four guests at Greek restaurant Periyali in New York City. Just a week after her last meal there - where she was welcomed with a shower of rose pedals (a restaurant tradition bestowed upon special guests) - Liu returned. This time, she ate the house specialties, including octopus and lamb chops.

• A stunning and single Dita Von Teese, having a girls’ night out at West Hollywood’s Chateau Marmont. Dressed in a slimming grey-and-black sheath, Von Teese and her friends dined in the garden area, while people kept looking over and staring. The group immediately ordered water

and a round of mojitos for all, sitting at their round table and telling

stories over dinner.

Monday’s Couples Watch >

With its foursome of fierce female friends, it’s no secret that Cashmere Mafia is trying to fill the gap left by Sex and the City (Darren Star is the executive producer, after all). And after Sunday’s preview and Wednesday’s premiere, we’re seeing plenty of similarities — the trendy clothes, the hip New York nightspots, the gorgeous guys, the never-ending martinis, the impossibly perfect apartments, the fairytale Manhattan backdrop…The show even has its own bubbly theme song!

And much like Sarah Jessica Parker’s Carrie Bradshaw, Lucy Liu’s Mia Mason is the leader of the pack. (Once upon a time, Liu was a guest star on SATC!) She’s got the most fabulous sense of style, that spring in her step and the ability to summon the rest of the ladies for a coffee or a cocktail at the drop of a text message. When they get together, guess what they do? Dish about men, careers and friendships, of course. But can Mia really be the next Carrie Bradshaw? Is she stylish and loveable enough? Is it too early to tell? Or will Carrie live forever in our collective memory as an untouchable fashion princess living in gilded Manhattan paradise? (Well, at least until the movie comes out.)

As this weekend’s box office results soberly showed, this summer’s much-ballyhooed sequels to “Legally Blonde” and “Charlie’s Angels” will be lucky if they make it to the $100 million mark.

So far, “Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle” has taken in $82 million — not enough to cover its $144 million production costs (that’s not counting what it also took to market it) — and “Legally Blonde 2: Red, White %26 Blonde” has pulled in $63 million, the Los Angeles Times reports.

Other sequels delivering smaller-than-expected returns this year have been “2 Fast 2 Furious” (with $122 million) and “Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines” ($110 million), not to mention the outright duds “Rugrats Go Wild!” ($37 million) and “Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd” ($25 million).

And while the situation is not enough to slam the brakes on a “Charlie’s Angels 3″ or yet another “Fast and the Furious,” corporate Hollywood is noticing that audiences won’t automatically flock to empty-headed movie franchises.

“If there was any hubris or arrogance to the industry’s approach, it’s that we got accustomed to believing ‘build it and they’ll come,’ ” Marc Shmuger, vice chairman of Universal Pictures, tells the Times. “What we’ve seen this summer is that movie audiences are declaring their independence of thought.”

Sony executives tell the paper that the strong foreign ticket sales for “Angels” — which stars Drew Barrymore, Cameron Diaz and Lucy Liu — may yet save the picture and may even justify another installment.

“It’s too early to tell,” said Amy Pascal, chairman of Sony’s Columbia Pictures. “I’m watching closely and hoping it will make sense.”

For the record, the summer’s successful sequels have been “The Matrix Reloaded” ($274 million) and “X2: X-Men United” ($213 million.) “Bad Boys II” opens Friday.

Veteran actor Robert Wagner wants part of Drew Barrymore’s pie.

The former “Hart to Hart” star, 73, claims he helped develop the original 1970’s “Charlie’s Angels” TV series and is suing for half the profits from the “Angels” movies, starring and executive produced by Barrymore, reports Reuters.

According to his legal papers, Wagner’s involvement with “Angels” began when he and his (now deceased) wife Natalie Wood agreed to star in the 1974 TV movie “Love Song” (later called “The Affair”) for producers Aaron Spelling and Leonard Goldberg — who then allegedly gave Wood and Wagner part interest for five TV shows, one of which became the 1976-81 series “Charlie’s Angels,” the lawsuit says.

Sony subsequently assumed the rights to the series from Spelling’s production company, but Wagner says he was never paid his share of the profits from the two “Angels” movies.

The first big-screen adventure, in 2000, took in more that $125 million in the U.S. alone, while the current sequel, “Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle,” has so far grossed $67 million.

Lucy Liu and Cameron Diaz star in the movies with Barrymore, in TV roles originated by Farrah Fawcett, Jaclyn Smith and Kate Jackson.

Wagner’s lawsuit is demanding that Sony add profits from the movies to his share of the profits from the TV series.

“This has to do with whether or not his entitlement to a share in the television series extends to the movie,” said Wagner’s lawyer Samuel Pryor.

Sony has yet to comment on the lawsuit.
