W magazine did it again.

The fashion monthly hosted its annual star-studded Golden Globes pre-party at the Chateau Marmont hotel in West Hollywood Thursday.

One of the first guests to arrive was Downton Abbey star Joanne Froggatt with her hot husband James Cannon. Before making her way up to the penthouse suite soiree, the Golden Globe nominee signed autographs and posed for pics with fans cheering for her from across the street.

The swanky bash quickly filled up with a well dressed crowd that included Cate Blanchett, Helen Mirren, Elizabeth Banks, Christoph Waltz, Alicia Vikander, Saoirse Ronan, Rooney Mara, Kirsten Dunst, Brie Larson, Rami Malek, Gael García Bernal, Dylan Penn, Paul Dano, Zoe Kazan, Zendaya, Rachel Bloom, Anthony Mackie, Jacob Tremblay, Jay Duplass, Gillian Jacobs, newly minted Baywatch star Kelly Rohrbach, models Chanel Iman and Amber Valletta, Ashley Benson, Lily James, Suki Waterhouse, Aziz Ansari, Tangerine star Mya Taylor, Jesse Metcalfe and Cara Santana and directors John Crowley, David O. Russell and Quentin Tarantino.

I told you it was star-studded!

Taylor Lautner gave us a major flashback to his days as Jacob in Twilight when he bent down to sooth a crying dog near the elevators. The pooch's owner shocked fellow guests by leaving her pet with a waiter so she could mingle inside the bash.

Hosted by W's Stefano Tonchi and Lynn Hirschberg and Chateau owner André Balazs, the fete celebrated the magazine's "Best Performances" issue and was presented by Audi and Dom Pérignon. Black and white copies of the mag's celeb photos lined the hallway and covered the wall behind the bar.
