On Sunday night, the Hot Mess crowd at HK Lounge in New York City got a surprise late in the night when an impromptu Lady GaGa impersonator busted in and demanded that more GaGa got played.
DJ Steve Sidewalk snapped some pics and even dedicated a whole set to Lady GaGa. Sidewalk says he confirmed with GaGa's publicist that she was at the American Music Awards, so there's no chance that this one is the real thing. (As if you couldn't tell!!)
The guy in the picture with the impersonator is her phony "manager" Nathan whose story-line is that he's new to the states from Australia so doesn't know anyone yet.
Sidewalk and Lady GaGa's real managment at Flylife have dubbed the impersonator as Lady NaNa. It's quiet hilarious. The funniest thing is that she was running around with a girl who looked like Amy Winehouse! In true Winehouse form, she passed out before the night was over.
Truly classy! Regardless, beware of Lady NaNa New York City!!

The Center - 208 W 13th street, NYC www.datebait.com
A nightclub bouncer who had already been sentenced to life in prison for two Brooklyn murders has been convicted of shooting another man dead and wounding three others outside a Manhattan nightclub.
Stephen Sakai now faces another life sentence after a jury found him guilty of attempted murder and assault.
Sakai got into an argument outside Opus 22 in May 2006. According to his version of the story, Sakai was restraining an unruly customer outside the club. Eventually a fight broke out. The bouncer said he feared for his life and as a result grabbed on of the mens' guns and started shooting.
The incident left one dead, another paralyzed from the chest down and two with less serious wounds.
These are our reccommendations for New York City's gay party scene if you're in Manhattan this weekend.

EXCLUSIVE
Jason Preston is movin' on up! To Hell's Kitchen that is! Mr. Preston, himself, has confirmed that he's starting a new Saturday night party at New York City's HK Lounge.
We first broke this story on the main blog earlier this month.
"Heaven in Hells" kicks off on Saturday, November 29th. Preston is also bringing a star-studdest crew with him including Jason Kaplan, Logan Hardcore and Chandilier. HX Magazine's Drag Queen of the Year, Peppermint, will also perform each week at midnight.
Jason Preston previously hosted Hot Mess and currently promotes Wednesdays at Porky's. He is also known to travel with some of the hottest D-list celebrities and reality stars.
Keep checking back to the GaySocialites.com Party blog for more details about the new "Heaven in Hells at HK Lounge."

Last week's Campus Thursdays at Splash in New York City is making headlines as one of the hottest parties of the year thanks to twinkie pornster Brent Corrigan.
Corrigan was evidently hired by the club to hang out for the evening, sometimes even in his undies. That evidently draws out everyone from old preverted men to college cuties, all wanting to catch a glimpse of Brent.
The real scoop comes from HX Magazine's Homo Dish. They write...
"Corrigan wasn’t exactly discreet about his plans to sneak off to mr. Black for Rentboy.com’s calendar release party later that night, arousing the ire of Splash’s management."
It probably doesn't look too good to have someone who you've paid to promote your event talking about how soon they can hop over to the competition.
At least its good to know that a kid-like porn star can bring out a crowd!
