* Mischa Barton and Brandon Davis had a lovers' quarrel at the InStyle/Warner Bros. party, which ended when "Mischa slapped Brandon," a partygoer said. The temperamental twosome made up and left together shortly thereafter.
TOBEY Maguire was supposed to introduce the clip of "The Aviator" at the Golden Globes but he dropped out at the last minute, supposedly because he's overweight and his handlers want to keep him out of sight until he loses the lard.
Maguire is a friend of Leonardo DiCaprio, who plays Howard Hughes in the Martin Scorsese flick. The producers scrambled and got Orlando Bloom to fill in for the "Spider-Man" star. Elsewhere at the Globes:
* Star Jones Reynolds and Melissa and Joan Rivers ignored each other on the red carpet as they broadcast for rival channels. The air was icy, witnesses said. But Star and Joan later posed together for photos where Joan was "mock b*tch-slapping Star."
* At the Miramax after-party, Harvey Weinstein was with Georgina Chapman, the beautiful British designer of the Marquessa fashion line, and introducing her as his "girlfriend." Weinstein is said to be on friendly terms with ex-wife Eve, who has moved on and has a new man in her life.
* Nicky Hilton and "Entourage" star Kevin Connolly also looked "miserable," our spies say. Hilton was upset after a run-in with Shannen Doherty in the bathroom at the Glamour/Miramax party at Trader Vic's. The two hate each other ever since Nicky's sister Paris — mysteriously absent from the evening — did a sex tape with Doherty's ex, Rick Salomon. "Shannen won the staredown and Nicky backed off," a spy laughed.

* Quentin Tarantino stepped out on girlfriend Sofia Coppola. The quirky, foot-obsessed director hit the Glamour party with a male pal and was "approached at the end of the night by a pretty girl who said she admired his work," our spy reports. Tarantino "snuggled" with the unidentified woman in a booth for the rest of the night. * Usher arrived at all the parties — Glamour/Miramax, InStyle/Warner Bros., Fox Searchlight, Universal and HBO — with a "huge entourage and cut all the lines — it was really annoying," said a witness. Usher tried to hit on Halle Berry at the InStyle party while James King was seen "working" actor-turned-director Zach Braff at the HBO bash.
