There have been sparks before at the Academy Awards but never the full-blown fire that was caused by Will Smith slapping Chris Rock during the ceremony. The “slap heard around the world” has since divided the Internet. But last night, most stars seemed content blowing off steam — and doing a glam wardrobe change — at an array of glamorous afterparties. Vanity Fair’s exclusive Oscar Party, which was held at the Wallis Annenberg Center in Beverly Hills, was the place to see and to be seen. Other events included Elton John AIDS Foundation’s 30th Annual Academy Awards Viewing Party in West Hollywood, California.
