Some may believe New Year’s Eve is an amateur, anti-climactic holidays. Others, such as the celebrities below, may believe it’s an excuse to party like Britney Spears without any underwear on.
Either way, People magazine and The Hollywood Gossip now deliver the goods on what various famous people are up to this December 31:
