Do you think you know how to party? You probably don't. The trend in celebrity parties is to outdo each other by throwing excessive parties. The latest: Supermodel Naomi Campbell has rented out all 18 floors of the seven star Burj Al Arab hotel at a cost of $1.8 million. The star-studded party is to celebrate her 36th birthday. Happy Birthday.
