"    Photo: Getty Images  Last night, after the cameras stopped rolling in the Dolby Theater, celebrities dispersed, making their way to a number of Oscars after parties. The f\u00EAte of all f\u00EAtes occurred at The Lot in Hollywood, where Seth MacFarlane threw a very private bash to celebrate his first time hosting the Academy Awards. The event boasted a bevy of celebrities, including Charlize Theron, Seth Green, Matthew Morrison, Francesca Eastwood, Tyler Shields, and The Vampire Diaries&amp;#039;s Paul Wesley and Ian Somerhalder. When asked about her surprise Dancing with the Stars-type performance during the Oscars, Theron said, &amp;quot;I was asked and just said &amp;#039;yes.&amp;#039;&amp;quot; The celebration took on the look of old Hollywood, complete with a 72-piece orchestra, which has become the hallmark of a MacFarlane party.   As the night&amp;#039;s host took the stage, MacFarlene told the crowd, &amp;quot;By the way, no one read the press tomorrow, because they are going to kill me. They are going to do to me what they did to Franco.&amp;quot; MacFarlane then riveted with performances of &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ve Got You Under My Skin,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Talk to the Animals&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;Luck Be a Lady Tonight&amp;quot; with his Frank Sinatra-style voice. Guests toasted him back by either raising a glass of Mo\u00EBt Chandon or their camera phone to capture the moment. Though Oscars night is the weekend&amp;#039;s main attraction, the Friday and Saturday leading up to it also boast a fair share of celebrations. During the Women In Film pre-Oscars cocktail party at Fig &amp;amp;amp; Olive, Jessica Chastain stepped out with her new boyfriend Gian Luca Passi de Preposulo. Upon arrival, Chastain hugged her The Help co-star Viola Davis and promptly introduced Davis and Passi de Preposulo. Chastain also told ELLE.com what she&amp;#039;ll be looking for in her next project: &amp;quot;I always try to play a character I&amp;#039;ve never played before.&amp;quot; While not an Oscar nominee this year, past-Academy Award winner Hilary Swank used the season and her clout to bring attention to UNICEF and Montblanc&amp;#039;s initiative, &amp;quot;Signature for Good.&amp;quot; Swank, wearing Giambattista Valli, hosted a champagne brunch on Saturday at the Bel-Air Hotel for the charity&amp;#039;s launch and was supported by Rosario Dawson, Emmy Rossum, and UNICEF ambassador Alyssa Milano. The A-listers behind Artists for Peace and Justice\u2013Sean Penn, Paul Haggis, Gerard Bulter, and Heather Graham\u2014had a similar idea and threw the weekend&amp;#039;s first party at the Sunset Tower Hotel, bringing attention to the ongoing need in Haiti.
