With the Los Angeles Lakers in SoFla, where they were beaten by the Miami Heat last night, you knew that basketball wife and reality TV star Khloe Kardashian would be popping up all over the place.

Here is the 26-year-old (above) at actor Danny DeVito’s Miami Beach eatery, DeVito South Beach, with husband and Lakers forward Lamar Odom, and Palm Beach County restaurateurs David and Lynn Manero, who co-own the joint.

I’m told Khloe, aka Kim’s lil’ sis, and her honey dined on carpaccio, sole and meat balls while filming for their new E! reality show, Khloe & Lamar.

In Boca Raton, meanwhile, the law firm of Brotman, Nusbaum and Fox celebrated the grand opening of their new building on Royal Palm Road with a giant shindig. Former Heisman Trophy winner and Green Bay Packers great Desmond Howard was a guest.

Partner Marc Brotman (below, with Howard) couldn’t resist taking the Heisman pose that Howard reveled in taking after scoring touchdowns for the University of Michigan. Howard, however, wouldn’t strike the pose, saying people would make fun of him.

No, they wouldn’t!

Animal lover and domestic diva Martha Stewart (above left) was honored in Palm Beach today for her generosity toward the American Humane Association.

Stewart, 69,  who received the Humanitarian of the Year award, and New York socialite Tinsley Mortimer, 34, (above with Stewart) were the guests of honor of the Association’s fund-raising luncheon for 500 at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago.

The event lured a society who’s who from Boca Raton, Wellington and Palm Beach.

A rarity among celebs: TV hostess and magazine owner Stewart actually flew to Palm Beach on her own dime and didn’t charge the charity an appearance fee.

“We saved at least $50,000,” said Terry Lee Kaly, the Association’s director of events. “Martha has been very generous.”

Palm Beach County got really crazy about the movies all of the sudden.

Not only were there two competing Oscar-viewing parties Sunday (in Boca above, and West Palm Beach’s below), the county is about to host three — count ‘em, three — film festivals in three weeks.

“There’s room for everybody,” said Terri Neil, co-founder of the new Palm Beach Women’s International Film Festival, “for as long as it’s not all at the same time.”

The Tonight Show’s Jay Leno (above) had ‘em in stitches and rookie U.S. Rep. Allen West, the Conservative Republicans’ new golden child (above), got plenty attention while making face time with rich donors at what could end up being the social season’s biggest fund-raising gala, Saturday night at the Boca Raton Resort.

Nearly 1,100 supporters of the Boys & Girls Club of Broward County packed the main ballroom for the Concours D’Elegance’s black-tie, which celebrated the 100th anniversary of the Indianapolis 500. And former Miami Dolphins majority owner H. Wayne Huizenga (below, with Jay), the founder of the AutoNation super dealerships, was honored for his contribution to the car biz.

Among the guests: Three-time Indy winner and former Dancing With The Stars champ Helio Castroneves; two-time Indy winner Al Unser Jr.; Latin crooner Jon Secada; and car dealer Rick Case. (Click for Mike Jachles’ 50-photo event gallery)

The gala was part of the weekend-long Concours, which also included Sunday’s collector car show judged by Leno. Leno himself is a well-known collector whose garage is stuffed with more than 100 classic cars, even if he told Page2Live last week that he was through buying — for a while!

Howie Mandel’s no car buff, but he can’t wait for Concours D’Elegance gig

Jay Leno to highlight the Boca Raton Concours D’Elegance

Jay Leno: No more cars, but I’ll be at Boca show

For the second year in a row, late-night funnyman Jay Leno will be performing his stand up routine as well as judge classic cars at this weekend’s Boca Raton Concours D’Elegance.

“It’s fun, it’s for a charity (the Boys & Girls Club of Broward County) and the car show is getting quite a reputation all over the country,” Leno told Page2Live. “Now when I tell people on the West Coast that I’m going to Boca Raton, they know about the event.

“Usually, it takes 10 years for an event like that to be cemented as an event that collectors need to visit.”

Leno will be tailed by a camera crew for his website, Jay Leno’s Garage.

The star of NBC’s The Tonight Show is scheduled to perform Saturday at the black-tie gala at Boca Raton Resort and he’ll judge collectors’ cars Sunday.

Will he buy a little something for himself?

“No way,” he said. “I’ve got 100-something cars. That’s enough for now.”
