TwitterOrlando Bloom, Christina Aguilera to party with Donald Trump, Dubai sultan
If you're Donald Trump, it's not hard to get celebrities to show up for your party. And if you're a powerful and wealthy sultan, it's even easier.
An exclusive party to launch the Trump International Hotel & Tower Dubai will be thrown by Donald Trump and His Excellency Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem at a private estate in Bel-Air on Saturday night.
And the stars are definitely coming out for this bash.
The long black limo list includes Hilary Swank, Russell Crowe, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, Orlando Bloom, Hayden Panettiere, Ali Larter, Brent Bolthouse, Aaron Eckhart (Harvey "Two Face" in "Dark Knight"), Kate Walsh, HBO honcho Colin Callendar, Wolfgang Puck, and more. Heidi Klum, Naomi Watts and Demi Moore turned out for the NY version June 23.
So who is this sultan dude? He's the founder-chairman of Dubai World, a holding company that has $80 billion-$100 billion in assets, including one of the world's largest port operators, a massive private equity house, retailer Barneys New York, and Nakheel, developer of the new hotel and Dubai's palm-tree-shaped man-made islands.
He also owns the port operating subsidiary that had control of six U.S. ports until Congress objected to handing the keys to a Middle Eastern company.
Shuttles will ferry nonceleb guests from a UCLA parking lot all night. There will be a live performance by Christina Aguilera, with DJ duties being handled by Fall Out Boy Pete Wentz, and you just know he's gonna play a few of his preggers wife Ashlee Simpson's songs.
I'll be there to check out the celeb scene and report this weekend.
The party is officially designed to spread the word about the 62-story, stainless steel and glass luxury hotel/residence masterpiece -- which will be tallest structure on Palm Jumeirah and is expected to be completed in summer 2011.
But I'm betting they're gonna lay the groundwork for major celeb attendance for the grand opening in Dubai.

Do these celebrities know how Dubai was constructed? The human race never ceases to amaze me.
turn your eyes and backs on innocent people who r treated like animals who can't leave that country because they r being held hostage.
Their living conditions are out of the dark ages and in-humane.
I'm sick of these idiots. The World really knows whats going on. It's was a matter of time that the dirty laundrey list of names came out. Keep them coming.
For your entertainment we have this wonderful little banglidesh boy of 6 riding a smelly stinky camel that possibly could crush his little bones right in front of you. Wow joy joy.
You can visit numerous concentration camps out of site of the men in blue who built this city of the tallest buildings in the world. Of course they have all been on diets so you wont see one obese worker.
Anyone who visits or plays there or builds there should be blacklisted and put to shame. They know whats going on over there. Shame on all of you.
