Paps, Cops, Paris: Scrum of the Earth

It was a wild night at Villa, where Demi Moore was supposedly throwing a party for her florist. Yeah, sounds implausible, not to mention hideously boring, but that's what we heard.

Things soon heated up, however, when some paps where thrown out—and one was reportedly arrested for breaking a $2,000 vase. And the tussling between photogs and a contingent of cops resumed later outside the club. Dang, what is this, a nightclub or a hockey game?

Still, all the brouhaha ensured that a few of L.A.'s finest were on hand to help Paris Hilton, beau Benji Madden, sis Nicky and her guy David Katzenberg escape the roiling 'razzi scrum outside the club.

Whew! Only in Hollywood do you need a police escort to party.
