Emmy Gossip!
Inside the Emmy Parties: Couples Scoop and More!
Amy Poehler was robbed!
Now that we've gotten that out of our systems, let's dig into all the fun scoop you need to know from the red-hot Emmy after parties, including a certain Dexter duo who seem to now be a public coupling (Hint: They are brother and sister!), what Emily VanCamp tells me about smooching her former brother Dave Annable, the latest on Will Arnett's attempts to make my nose bleed and which Prison Break star and House star were cozying up on the dance floor...
Oh, let's just come right out and say it: Sucre and Cameron!
Looks like House's Jennifer Morrison and Prison Break's Amaury Nolasco are staying loyal to their Fox roots. Not only did they arrive pretty much together at HBO's Emmy party at the Pacific Design Party in Hollywood, they also spent the night sitting together and dancing closely together. Smoking-hot pairing, no?
Also keeping it in the family: At the star-studded HBO party, Michael C. Hall and Jennifer Carpenter (Dexter's mighty brother-and-sister duo) arrived arm-in-arm, adding further fuel to the fire that they are dating in real life. (Sidenote: I ran into them at a diner a couple Sundays ago, as they were heading in to have breakfast.) Love those two and couldn't be happier if that were the case—well, aside from the fact that the show and Michael were stone-cold robbed last night.

"I was disappointed," the sizzling (so not Rita-looking) Julie Benz told me at the ET/People party. "I really was rooting for Michael. He deserves to win." Ditto that emotion.
But wait! More sorta-kinda incest, kids! "It's working. I promise." This is what the always sweet Emily VanCamp of Brothers & Sisters would like to tell you fans who are concerned about the planned blossoming romance this season between her character, Rebecca, and the guy she believed to be her brother until the end of last season, Dave Annable, who plays Justin Walker.
"I hear a lot of 'Ew! That's gross!' " Emily told me at the ET/People Party, which went down at the very cool Walt Disney Concert Hall in downtown L.A. "And I don't really get it because up until very recently they didn't know each other. It's not like they took baths together as little kids."
In real life, I'm hearing Dave and Emily are as on-again, off-again as any compelling onscreen romance. Last night, they ended up at the ET/People party at the same time to rock out to Billy Idol (who vowed to me that he would do the show nude). And Dave later showed up at the HBO party with Matthew Rhys and Sally Field, hugging her as if she were his real mother. (Awww! Honestly, adorable.)
Back at ET/People, Will Arnett once again went in for the kill to try and make my nose bleed (which he once did on the set of Arrested Development with his wicked, sadistic habit of making people laugh so hard they burst a blood vessel in their head), and the so adorably glowy and very pregnant Amy Poehler lit up when I congratulated her on her new show from the Office creators. Can. Not. Wait.
[Note: Will did almost get me when he told Amy she'd just missed Kristin Chenoweth, then paused and said, "No wait! She's right here in my pocket!" But I kept it together for the sake of the borrowed gown.]
Also spotted at the HBO party, which was jam-packed late into the evening:
Tom Hanks, who insisted to his publicist he walk the whole line of press (Tom, we love you!) and told us he was thrilled to win the Emmy for John Adams, which was a passion project.
Tristan Wilds of 90210, who promises there is more Dixon and Silver ahead and advises fans to keep watching for it.
Jon Voight, who told us he's halfway through his role on 24, so it sounds to me like Jack Bauer's gonna bust a cap in his baddie ass and he's not sticking around for too long.
Jeremy Piven, who "could not be more honored" with his Emmy win, said Ari is headed for "high highs or low lows this season." Does Ari ever do anything half-assed?
Adrian Grenier, who said we'll get a Vincent we've never seen before: "It's humbling not getting everything so easily."
Hayden Panettiere, who skipped the press line everywhere but spent a good deal of time chatting up Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins inside the party, providing a great photo op for photogs.
Tom Hanks among celebs who pack Emmy afterparties
Accepting hugs left and right and clutching his best miniseries trophy for HBO's "John Adams," Tom Hanks made one thing clear at the premium cable network's packed Emmy afterparty: He's not a partier.

"It's a school night. This is all a bit of a chore, honestly," Hanks told The Associated Press late Sunday night, grinning and waving his arms while music pumped loudly overhead.
"I'm shouting at everyone I meet, I'm taking pictures with everyone who wants to. ... We're really glad the series won. Great cast, killer crew. ... But I gotta be at work at 6 a.m. tomorrow," he said. "I've got about 15 minutes left in me."
Hanks, an executive producer on the historical drama, partied alongside his wife, Rita Wilson, at the outdoor bash at West Hollywood's Pacific Design Center.
"I haven't eaten since 12 noon," declared Wilson. The actress then tucked into a steaming plate of food.
The pair left 40 minutes later.
HBO had a lot to celebrate at the 60th annual Primetime Emmy Awards, with a leading 26 trophies. The afterparty was aptly stylish, defining cool elegance with a clear tent covering guests, a huge torch burning above the festivities and swirling paintings projected onto nearby walls.
A blue-green Brazilian theme lent an airy, sophisticated vibe, with chairs covered in turquoise blue dotted cloth and carpeting decorated with green leaf shapes. Oversized mesh metal vases and platformed areas lined with full-length mirrors completed the party's lavish look.
Guests including Jon Voight, Kevin Spacey, Laura Dern, Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon feasted on a menu of more than 15 dishes, including heirloom tomatoes with heart of palm, paella with Portuguese sausage and Brazilian-style ratatouille. Dessert included mango pudding.
Don Rickles chomped on potatoes and slivers of beef, his Emmy trophy just a few inches away on his table. The 82-year-old comic won for best individual performance in a variety or music program for "Mr. Warmth: The Don Rickles Project."
"The food is excellent, the party is excellent," he said. "After this, I'm going to go home and have a drink. Vodka on the rocks."
As smooth bossa nova tunes gave way to blistering disco, made louder by a live drummer pounding along above the dance floor, the entourage from HBO's "Entourage" traveled through the party. The pack was headed by Jeremy Piven, who won his third supporting comedy actor trophy for the Hollywood-centric show.
"I'm very happy and proud of him. Three years in a row. In the sports world, that's a dynasty," said Piven's co-star Jerry Ferrara.
While Piven and "Entourage" star Adrian Grenier dodged reporters, the cast of HBO's "The Wire" laughed, drank and lamented the end of the critically lauded show after five seasons.
"It's a shame this industry as a whole couldn't come together to recognize one of the most groundbreaking shows in history," said Sonja Sohn, who played Detective Shakima "Kima" Greggs.
Across town at TV Guide's bash at the Kress in Hollywood, rock band The Bravery played a thunderous set at midnight, setting the Japanese-themed party's more irreverent rock 'n' roll tone.
Waitresses in red geisha costumes served cocktails and trays of chocolates. Revelers crowded around a huge sake bar in the middle of the space. Paper cranes hung from the ceiling.
Guests included Sandra Oh and John Krasinski. DJ Samantha Ronson spun rock tunes early in the evening and then after The Bravery's set. She didn't take kindly to a female fan who tried to photograph Ronson's gal pal Lindsay Lohan.
Later, Ronson and Lohan took pictures together kissing and hugging. Lohan, wearing a sparkling jewel-encrusted ring on her right hand, declined to talk to The Associated Press.
For many Emmy guests, the first stop on the night's party trail was the Governors Ball, held across the street from the Nokia Theatre at the downtown Los Angeles Convention Center.
The convention hall was transformed into an elegant ballroom decorated in black, silver and thousands of crystals in honor of Emmy's diamond anniversary: 60 years. More than 300 crystal-encrusted chandeliers dangled from the ceiling above tables dressed with dozens of red roses. Guests dined on king crab and avocado salad, New York strip steak and milk chocolate caramel mousse.
Paul Giamatti, Glenn Close and Alec Baldwin brought golden dates to the ball: their Emmy trophies. Host Howie Mandel ditched his bow tie. Jimmy Kimmel posed for photos with fans and a very pregnant Amy Poehler held husband Will Arnett's hand while "Saturday Night Live" producer Lorne Michaels chatted with guests.
"Entertainment Tonight" also hosted its annual post-Emmys party, but The Associated Press wasn't allowed access after covering the event for the past several years. The celebrity newsmagazine pulled AP's photo credentials and denied a reporter's request to go inside, citing AP's report from June that outlined how "ET" had incorrectly reported the birth of twins to Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt.
