Your Official 2010 Emmy Party Guide!

[Photo by Chris Pizzello for AP Photos via] It's that time of year again when the entire town turns upside down for the entertainment industry to congratulate itself with extravagant ceremonies so boring they make us weep. Oh wait, that's like, every three months...  This week the Emmys sweep L.A., but just because you're not nominated and your invite got lost in the mail again doesn't mean you can't get in on the action and have some fun. We've scoured the sources, talked to our "insider" friends (a.k.a. desk bitches) and gotten some hot tips from the lovely Jae Joseph to bring you a comprehensive list of all the parties, gifting suites, and all things Emmy happening this week for you to crash, because if you can't beat 'em, you might as well enjoy the open bar and score some swag.

*We'll be updating this as more invites roll in so check back or let us know if we missed something!
