Southampton - Kanye West joined party host Fergie to celebrate the premiere of the highly anticipated 1 OAK Las Vegas at The Mirage on New Year's Eve.

After much speculation surrounding his twitter campaign to DJ on New Year's Eve, Kanye took the stage and thrilled party-goers with a three hour set. Dubbing himself YEEZYWORLDPEACE, Ye mixed tracks for Fergie, her hubby Josh Duhamel and some of the biggest names in Hollywood to usher in a new era of the 1 OAK brand with 1 OAK co-founders Richie Akiva and Scott Sartiano.

The exciting New Year's Eve party and weekend celebration marked a pre-cursor to 1 OAK's grand opening weekend slated for January 2012.

While guests, including Joseph Gordon Levitt, David Katzenberg, Kid Cudi, Topher Grace, Big Sean, Jason Ritter and bandmates from Foster The People including Mark Foster, Mark Pontius and Cubbie Fink, danced the night away to the sounds of West and 1 OAK resident DJ Jesse Marco, a surprise came from the host herself as Fergie took to the mic after the New Year's BANG, while confetti guns shot white snowflakes into the air filling the 1,600 person venue and thrilling party goers.Fergie even serenaded her husband with 1980s songs. Following the performance, Fergie sliced herself a piece of her New Year's cake for herself and Josh as YEEZYWORLDPEACE played through the night for the entertainment industry's finest.

Some highlights from the evening include:

 • Topher Grace drank water the whole night and danced to the music with a bevy of women that surrounded his table.
 • Kanye spun for three house and played many of his own songs, including "Golddigger," and an electic mix of music ranging from Black Sabbath to Bon Jovi to Michael Jackson to Bobby Brown. He also played music he produced including King of Hearts by Cassie.
 • Unlike Kanye, Fergie didn't perform her own songs, rather she sang to many hits of the 80s.
 • As Kanye finished his set, he played Rihanna's "We Found Love,, and screamed to the crowd "Thank you for the best New Year's ever!"

Saturday night was the pinnacle of the massive New Year's weekend at 1 OAK Las Vegas. On Friday night, 1 OAK partner Ronnie Madra celebrated his birthday drawing a celebrity guest list which included Wiz Khalifa and girlfriend Amber Rose, singer-songwriter Bruno Mars, Jason Derulo, Lucas Haas, Kendra Wilkinson, actress Eliza Dushku with her boyfriend and former NBA star Rick Fox, and music producer Scott Storch.
