The Academy Awards came early at the Four Seasons tonight. Five Oscar winning women in the same room to celebrate Elle Magazine's Women in Hollywood. Halle Berry, Nicole Kidman, Shirley MacLaine, Jane Fonda, Diablo Cody, Sigourney Weaver, Kat Dennings, Jennifer Lopez, Jenny McCarthy, Anne Hathaway, Kate Beckinsale and Katharine McPhee attended the private dinner to honor female stardom and style in Hollywood.









An excited Jane Fonda approached Superbad standout Kat Dennings and raved about her upcoming release Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist. The entire time a flabergasted Dennings is saying "You're Jane Fonda... Jane Fonda."

The leading ladies drank Moet & Chandon while comedienne Chelsea Handler hosted the awards with political satire and jokes of Halle Berry's maternal figure.

"She's got to be breast feeding," Handler said after Berry left the stage. Awkward laughs ensued.

Singer Jennifer Lopez hung on the arm of Leah Remini and Jenny McCarthy during the cocktail reception and dinner.

"Cut out the pictures with me blinking, and all the ones where they look prettier than me," joked Lopez.

See what these ladies wore to the soiree in the gallery above.
