All the gossip and photos from backstage at the Emmys

Last night all the stars of our favourite US TV shows were out in full force for the 65th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards. But forget the glitz and glam of the red carpet, we know what you really want to see is all the behind-the-scenes twit-pics of the stars getting dressed, getting fed, and getting tipsy…

Tweeting her excitement ahead of the awards, Fashion Police presenter Kelly Osbourne (below) showed off a bouquet she had been sent as a pre-show gift.

'Always feel excited leading up to the #EMMYS. Thankful for the flowers from @Glade these give me the #bestfeelings #excitingday'

Heidi Klum (below) gave her Instagram followers a sneaky peek into her getting ready regime as her team beautified her for the big event while she snacked on a healthy plate of fruit.

'Exciting day! Having fun getting ready for the @primetimeemmys with the team - @lindahaymakeup and @wendyiles! #AussieGlamSquad #Emmys'

Ta dah! Pretty in purple Heidi (below) reveals the finished look.

'Here is my final look for the @PrimetimeEmmys! What do you guys think? #Emmys'

Julianne Hough (below) – sister of Cheryl Cole’s ex Derek – also posed for a cheeky Twitter snap before getting into her gown.

A little sneak peak at us getting ready for the Emmys! So lucky to have this group of amazing artists that consistently create magic!'

While most of the stars waited until they arrived for refreshments, Girls producer Judd Apatow (below) got started in the car on his way to the awards.

It seems the A-listers are still going mad for manicures as both New Girl’s Zooey Deschanel (below-top) and Modern Family’s Sarah Hyland (below-bottom) tweeted their glam nail designs.

Her pre-awards plate of fruit clearly didn’t hit the spot for Heidi (below) who lined her stomach with a peanut butter sarnie before the after-parties got underway.

Bruno Mars entertained the star-studded audience for the night – much to Girls Star Rebel Wilson’s delight (below).

After a busy night reporting the style hits and misses from the red carpet for her E! television show, Kelly headed back to her dressing room hand in hand with fiancé Matthew Mosshart (below).

All done walking back to my dressing room! Thank you all so much for tuning in and for all your amazing opinions! I love you guys! #emmys #eredcarpet

While some stars headed home for a quiet one, Modern Family’s Sofia Vergera (below) got her ‘Twerk’ on at the after show party.

'Miley cyrus this is where the twerk was invented. Colombia!'
