It was a starry night indeed for those who attended the Governors Ball following last night's Emmy Awards.

The casts of Modern Family, 30 Rock, True Blood, and Glee were just some of the big names in attendance who celebrated with industry folks, and a few fans alike. But there were some babes who were not pleased with a few of the common folk roaming around (they paid upwards of $1000 to be there).

Any guesses as to which hottie pulled the diva card?

Lea Michele, who no doubt was one of the best dressed of the night, held court at her table with cast members like Chris Colfer and Jane Lynch, however the babe who lost out to Edie Falco couldn't be bothered to mingle with a few eager fans.

"She was making out with her boyfriend the entire night," says an onlooker a few tables down. "There were a lot of security people there for the event, obviously, but she was one of the few who had her own personal bodyguard."

A couple of people claiming to know Ms. Michele attempted to approach the babe when the scrawny guard stopped them, then tapped Lea to double check.

Our eyes on the scene spill: "Lea came up for air, goes 'No, I do not know them,' and went back to making out with her boyfriend."

The fans, or whoever they were, were not allowed near her.

Guess the birthday girl will celebrate how she wants to!

Meanwhile her costar Jane Lynch was working the room.

"Jane took pictures with fans, talked with anyone who came up to her, and was totally glowing the entire night," adds our insider.

Lynch is a doll, and the fact she so deservedly won probably has something to do with that.

Across the room part of the True Blood cast was another big fan favorite.

Stephen Moyer, Anna Paquin, and Alexander Skarsgård took photos with everyone who asked—in between dining on their deelish dinner, Duncan Hines dessert, while sippin' on Grey Goose vodka and wine. Even 'tho Paquin was heard whispering "Oh no, more photos?" to her hubby, the babe put on her fabosh smile and politely talked to everyone who approached her.

Moyer had his arm tight around his newlywed as he chatted with his manager, while Anna and Alexander were deep in convo. Love when casts get along on and off-screen!

Speaking of, the Mad Men table was also the place to be inside the convention center. Christina Hendricks, a very happy looking Elisabeth Moss, and Jon Hamm all sat together laughing most of the night away.

Since Mad Men won for outstanding drama series, they were some of the last to arrive and Jon seemed to have his priorities straight.

"Right when Jon walked in people wanted pictures with him. He said 'One second!', ran up to longtime girlfriend Jennifer Westfeldt and gave her a huge kiss, then went back and took pictures with whoever asked."

Ugh, that man might be the closest thing to perfect we have in Hollywood.

The party hardly stopped there for the big winners.
