Kim Richards is out of rehab and ready to...party?

Fortunately, from what we saw last night, the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star was on her best behavior when she hit the Golden Globes.

What was Ms. Richards up to? Read on to find out, plus more partying scoop on Alexander Skarsgård, Madonna, Kim Kardashian and a Michael Fassbender-led conga line...

Richards was spotted at the Moët & Chandon-sponsored Weinstein Company afterparty at the Beverly Hilton's Bar 210 with sister Kathy Hilton. She appeared starstruck and tongue-tied when introduced to mega-celebs like Leonardo DiCaprio, Kathy Griffin, Jane Fonda and Helen Mirren.

Madonna popped into the bash for only minutes to say hi to Harvey Weinstein before bolting. Meryl Streep was also there, as were a smiley Michelle Williams with bestie Busy Phillips (who held Williams' statuette for her) and Kelsey Grammer with preggers wife Kayte Walsh.

Cameron Diaz and Sean "Diddy" Combs did little to dispel their lingering romance rumors. The blond beauty showed up at the hip-hop mogul's table around 9:30 p.m. before the two separately headed out a back exit.

Kim Kardashian showed up just before midnight after hitting the InStyle/Warner Brothers' bash to hang out with Heidi Klum and Nina Garcia. Of course, The Artist was well represented. French beauty Berenice Bejo was very excited to talk with DiCaprio.

Over at HBO's poolside party at Circa 55 restaurant, Skarsgård held court at the bar, drinking bottled beers with friends just a few feet away from Clive Owen. Joe Manganiello chatted nearby with Chris Noth. The Voice's Adam Levine (looking friggin' hotter than hot in a Tom Ford tux) headed to the back of the bash near the covered pool.

Also mingling about were Guy Pearce, Evan Rachel Wood and Modern Family stars Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Julie Bowen, Eric Stonestreet and Ty Burrell.

Earlier in the evening, the Modern Family bunch celebrated their win at the Fox party. Sofia Vergara drank wine as her boyfriend scoffed down some food, while the younger members of the cast played video games on an iPad.

Lea Michele and Cory Monteith arrived by golf cart together to join their Glee costars Harry Shum Jr., Kevin McHale, Mercedes Riley, Chord Overstreet and Damien McGinty inside.

Hollywood legend—and Globe winner—Jessica Lange was the center of attention over at the American Horror Story area. Sarah Paulson, Kate Mara, Connie Britton and Ryan Murphy were all smiles, as was Homeland's Claire Danes, who stopped by to take pics with Lange and their golden statuettes. "I was certainly humbled when I discovered Obama is a fan," Danes told me earlier in the day. "That certainly got me. It's crazy, but also a great honor."

Michael Fassbender led a conga line straight to a bar, where he and a gaggle of gals and guys did shots. The hunky golf pro Irishman also lit up a big fat cigar.

The Descendants' Judy Greer was celebrating with her wedding planner Kelly Demaray. Director Alexander Payne hugged everyone within arm's reach.

Across town in West Hollywood, CAA held its annual über-VIP soiree at the Sunset Tower hotel with the likes of Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Reese Witherspoon, George Clooney, Stacy Keibler, Glenn Close, Melissa McCarthy, Zooey Deschanel and Charlize Theron, among many others.
