MIAMI'S NEW PLAYGROUND
Since its opening two months ago, nightclub Snatch has been pulling in a celeb crowd, including Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, who hung out there with pals Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith until 2:30 a.m. one night. The 3,500-sq.-ft. room features go-go dancers, antler chandeliers dripping with lingerie, and a mechanical bull, but its most distinctive feature is lighting as high-wattage as the crowd. Recently caught under the glare: Colin Farrell, Josh Lucas, Lenny Kravitz, Enrique Iglesias and Cisco Adler, who serenaded girlfriend Mischa Barton. Coming soon: a third-floor VIP area with one-way-mirrors. Celebs will see you, but you won't see them.

SIMPSON: UPPING THE ANTE
“Ashlee looks like she's fallen hard,” says a source of the pop star, who recently went public with her boyfriend, Braxton Olita, 20, a guitarist in her band. But the girl's got love to go around: While viewing a friendly poker match among Paris Hilton, Stavros Niarchos and other pals recently at the Four Seasons hotel on Maui, Ashlee, 21, playfully kissed a female friend, to everyone's delight.
