Nick & Vanessa vs Jessica & John

Which one had the better New Year's Eve?

Nick Lachey & Vanessa Minnillo

Just before midnight, the two - who've been dating for eight months - took their spot in the window facing down on the crowd and discussed the end of 2006 and the big bash going on below them for the MTV cameras. But off camera, things heated up between the lovebirds. Lachey whispered into Minnillo's ear and kissed her neck. The occasion appeared to overwhelm Minnillo, who responded by dabbing away joyful tears.

Jessica Simpson and John Mayer


John Mayer and Jessica Simpson rang in '07 "full-on making out" at the Hudson Hotel party thrown by Christina Aguilera. It was the first public acknowledgment of a relationship they have been denying since August. (The mystery source on that first story, by the way, was a deliveryman who saw Mayer in his boxer shorts at Simpson's home, and sold it to the tabs.)

"He was scratching her back, they were kissing, it wasn't subtle," says a spy at the Heineken-sponsored bash. The couple dined earlier in the evening at Country, after shopping at Barneys during the day.
