On the east coast, a Versace-clad Lady Gaga was on hand at Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve in NYC's Times Square, performing in a Swarovski crystal-encrusted black cat suit with black platform shoes.
And never one to shy away from a quick wardrobe change, the pop superstar switched up her look, donning a silver Atelier Versace beaded gown with a silver crystal-covered headpiece to watch the ball drop at midnight.
Justin Bieber also spent New Year's Eve in NYC with girlfriend Selena Gomez at a private party at the Glass House in Manhattan following his performance at Dick Clark's Times Square shindig. At one point the "Baby" crooner was spotted picking Selena up and spinning her around while they danced. So cute!
On the west coast, Kanye West and Fergie kicked off the New Year at the opening of 1 OAK in Las Vegas, where Kanye (who dubbed himself YEEZYWORLDPEACE for the evening) deejayed the party, spinning hits for partygoers for three hours!
Fergie, who hosted the affair, was spotted kissing hubby Josh Duhamel at midnight. And while she didn't perform, the Black Eyed Peas singer sang along to '80s music at her table, and was entertained by a magician who performed tricks for partygoers as well.
