Courteney Cox Arquette's never had this kind of attention -- oh yeah, it probably helps that she was having dinner with John Mayer and Jen Aniston, who snuck out unnoticed.
Also in L.A.: Lindsay got swarmed, Santino Rice was happy to be noticed, James Denton was confident he'd be back on "Desperate Housewives," Dylan McDermott celebrated being single and Tara Reid was back on the party circuit.
In NY: Posh was her usual silent self and Donatella Versace went out with rail-thin daughter Allegra.

Hunky TV plumber James Denton no longer has to unclog Teri Hatcher's corroded, rusty pipes in order to get to third base!
The "Desperate Housewives" he-man just bought independent minor league baseball team, the Fullerton Flyers. Denton, along with members of an investment group, obtained the Orange County team for a "seven-figure purchase price," an amount almost equal to the cost of Nicollette Sheridan's makeup.
One thing's for sure ... unlike other "Housewives" stars, we definitely know what team Denton plays on!

At this year's Television Critics Association (TCA) convention the stars of "Desperate Housewives" spilled a few secrets about the upcoming season.
With the show collecting only seven Primetime Emmy Award nominations, mostly of the hairstyling and costumes variety, "Housewives" had better step up their game this time around.
Eva Longoria was thrilled to be back at work, "I was so pleased with episode one, it just so much in it i mean it has the mystery set up for the season, we have our drama set up between Carlos and I, Jesse Metcalfe is coming back which I'm really excited about and then i read episode two and i freaked out about what happens in episode two my mouth just dropped today."
Longoria's co-stars Doug Savant and James Denton feel this season will make fans proud and will be more like the show's hit first season. "The way the mystery is driving season three, a little bit like season one, I think people will immediately see the similarity and maybe that's addressing some of the complaints."
The third season of "Desperate Housewives" premieres September 24.

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS -- More "Desperate Housewives" -- in Spanish and Portuguese.
Hoping to replicate the worldwide success of the Golden Globe-winning ABC drama, Disney's intonational production arm announced Thursday plans to produce four local Latin American editions, each with its own cast and cultural flavor.
Spanish versions of the show will in Argentina, Colombia and Ecuador, and a Portuguese version will air in Brazil.
"The script of the series perfectly fit the profile of what the Latin American audience looks for," said Fernando Barbosa, senior vice president of Buena Vista International Television Latin America. "It looks similar to the telenovelas."
Each new version will be filmed on one set in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and follow the format of the U.S. original, but with adaptations to reflect each cast's local culture.
"In the U.S. version there's a plumber (actor James Denton as Mike Delfino) in that neighborhood. In Latin America, a plumber is very unlikely to live in such type of neighborhood, so we'll have to switch that profession," Barbosa said.
The couple played by Eva Longoria and Ricardo Antonio Chavira -- who as Gabrielle and Carlos Solis represent Hispanics in the United States, Barbosa said -- will reflect permanent immigrants in each community. For example, in the Colombian version, the couple will be from Ecuador.
Production on the Argentine version begins April 15 in Buenos Aires, and the first episodes could air in Argentina as early as June or July, Barbosa said.
Four actresses have already been cast as the lead desperate housewives for the Argentine version: Araceli Gonzalez as Gabriela (Gabrielle on the U.S. version), Gabriela Toscano as Susana (Susan), Carola Reyna as Elisa (Bree) and Mercedes Moran as Lia (Lynette).
