Jimmy Kimmelneeds his space. A source tells us the talk-show host showed up at the Austin Power Plant to seeKanye WestandJay-Zperform at the VEVO Presents concert atSXSWon Saturday, but left before they hit the stage because he couldn't handle the cheek-to-jowl crowd of 2,500. (Kid CudiandMos Defwere also part of the all-star lineup.) Our insider heard the 43-year-old Kimmel grouse,"I'm too old for this,"before he made an early exit.
Making a fashionably late appearance at the Chevrolet-sponsored show wasBeyonce, who, according to another source there, stayed inside her trailer until Jay joined Kanye in concert. The delicious diva then headed to the side of the stage where she danced and sang along to her hubby's performance.
Also at SXSW, artistB.o.Bwas overheard telling his posse at the Express Rocks! Music Lounge and UV Vodka fete on Friday that he didn't get back to his hotel room until 6 a.m. the previous morning. That's what they call ultra-fashionably late.
Brown,Roy Brown
James Francolikes to use a particular pseudonym when he checks into hotels— and we'd love to know why.The Oscarshost checked into theChateau Marmontunder"Roy Brown"last week, a nom de guerre he's used elsewhere. Given Franco's appreciation for the meta, we wonder whether he's referring to the great jump blues singer Roy Brown, whose"Good Rockin' Tonight"was one ofElvis Presley's first singles; R.A.F. flying ace,Capt. Arthur Roy Brown, who was once credited with shooting down the Red Baron; or someone else. Franco did play a WWI pilot in the 2006 film"Flyboys,"but his character wasn't based on Brown. His publicist didn't respond by deadline.

The two took pics together and cuddled up on a couch before Lakshmi hit the dance floor with a girlfriend.

Cruise's adopted sonConnor Cruiseand his partnerZack Isham, the son of composerMark Isham, deejayed the Whitley Kros design label party at Satine Boutique inWest Hollywoodon Thursday. The boys called their outfit CZ Entertainment and the handsome, sweet-natured Cruise bills himself as"C2"or"C Squared."
Our source says Cruise has been spinning for three years but recently has become more serious about it. (He's also acting in"Red Dawn.")"He was playing lots of hip hop and knew all the lyrics,"says the source."He even did aMichael Jacksonimpersonation."Connor also seemed to be enjoying the company of dark-haired actress Paris Duff. The two danced together, and our source says,"She kept going to the deejay table all night."
