"Power" executive producer 50 Cent knows that a new season of the Starz show means it's time to party "like it's your birthday." The celebration in New York on Thursday night included a choir, fog machine and the G-Unit main man entertaining the guests.

At the afterparty, 50 Cent huddled with creator and fellow- executive producer Courtney A. Kemp.

It was a 104 degrees at 10:15 p.m. when Vance Joy's headlining show at the Greek ended on Friday night, but that didn't stop the Aussie's L.A. fans from selling out the show and turning up early and loud. "This is by a fair way, our biggest headline show ever here," he said and thanked the crowd for "braving this incredible heat." In a few different configurations, Vance ran through most of the new "Nation of Two" album during an 85-minute set.   

Republic artist Mondo Cozmo (left, with Craig Adams) opened, playing his number one "Shine" and thanking the crowd for coming out "early" on the hot Friday night. "We’re playing the freakin Greek tonight. Insanity," he wrote on Instagram earlier in the day. "In 1.5 years we went from the Hotel Cafe to the Troubadour to the El Rey to The Greek. What a beautiful mountain to have climbed. Thank you @vancejoy for helping us get there." 

Veteran actor Tim Matheson, "Breaking Bad" creator Vince Gilligan and "Game of Thrones" producer Carolyn Strauss gathered at the Paley Center to lead CNN's celebration of its new recent-history series, "The 2000s." Because the series focuses on the rise of the contemporary golden age of TV, these TV big shots were appropriate guests. Fun fact: Tom Hanks produces the series.

"Downton Abbey" belongs in the conversation of the current golden age. Here, the former "Mrs. Patmore" (Lesley Nicol) hugs BAFTA L.A. CEO Chantal Rickards at the group's Student Film Awards. The trophy handout took place at the Ace Hotel downtown on June 29.

Music fans and Bally recently celebrated 30 years of seminal rap artist Slick Rick. Beverly Hills is traditionally a snoozefest on Saturday nights, but not on June 23, when hip-hop pioneers gathered in the 90210. Pictured here with the guest of honor are Mandy Aragones and En Vogue's Terry Ellis.

LL Cool J was in the building, here greeting "Love & Hip Hop" executive producer Maricarmen Lopez. (Before his now formidable TV career, LL was the youngster in hip-hop's founding generation and a Slick Rick peer.)

Snoop Dogg came to DJ, spinning Slick Rick classics "La Di Da Di (We like to Party)" and "Mona Lisa." It's a long but refreshing leap to have the Bronx on Rodeo Drive.

Giorgio's -- the understated Saturday night party for in-the-know industry figures who wouldn't be anywhere else on a Saturday night on the Sunset Strip -- celebrated its five year anniversary. Here, founders Adam Bravin (aka DJ Adam 12) and Bryan Rabin are at the decks.

For the anniversary party, the crowd spilled out of its usual confines of the club at the Standard to colonize the pool deck. The Party Report salutes what many of the '90s' and '00s' "scene" regard as the L.A.'s last cool nightlife brand for friends-of-friends only. (Photos rarely emerge from this crowd that appreciates the phone-free era of nightlife.)

Celebrants included (from left): Stylist Elizabeth Stewart, fashion expert George Kotsiopoulos, Rabin, designer Brian Wolk, stylist Yana Kamps and designer Claude Morais.

The pet-friendly Standard took it one step further, welcoming music producer Nick Launay and his pet to the festivities.

The Party Report never sees industry types dance at parties. Giorgio's is the exception. The party is named for electronic music pioneer Giorgio Moroder (the "Scarface" and "Midnight Express" soundtracks, and Donna Summer's hits "Hot Stuff" and "On the Radio").

Atlantic City got a taste of Vegas with Kaskade spinning at the opening of the Ocean Resort Casino. Shanina Shaik and Heidi Klum flanked the producer at the pool party in the space that was formerly known as the Revel Casino Hotel earlier this decade.

Niall Horan and pro golfer Justin Rose teamed up for a co-branded "Horan and Rose" golf outing and gala benefit in Watford, England, raising money for cancer research for kids and teens in the UK.  That night, Horan performed hit "Slow Hands" with fellow "X Factor" alum Olly Murs after they chipped in $85,000 to win a trip to South Africa that they said they'll take together.
