The Insider's very own Backstory gal Mary Murphy (and my mom!) takes you behind-the-scenes at Entertainment Tonight's star-studded Emmy Party at Vibiana in Downtown Los Angeles. Watch bubbly veteran reporter Mary, as she rocks her bubble-gum pink Lilly Pulitzer frock, chugs diet cokes with the best of 'em and charms party-going celebs left and right. Come join! ( No but, seriously you should watch because it's also my mom's birthday today and I didn't get a chance to get her a present yet -- so I'm kissing up.)

Watch the amazingly beautiful correspondent/best mom ever Mary Murphy get the scoop about NCIS: Los Angeles' season premiere from one of the show's stars, Barrett Foa. The lovely Mary also dishes with E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial star Dee Wallace on acting with James Spader on The Office, as well as how she may have been the one to nickname Entertainment Tonight -- ET! And see Mary gab with The Insider's Brooke Anderson about chasing down celebrities earlier that night on the Emmy red carpet!

From delicious desserts to discussing Melissa McCarthy's big win with Kathy Griffin, take a trip around Hollywood's hottest Emmy party with the fearless entertainment reporter who has seen it all! (FYI: The woman has interviewed three U.S. presidents, Michael Jackson, Fidel Castro and most importantly -- several of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Not that I'm bragging. Okay yes, I am. But that's okay, she's my mom -- I'm allowed.) So stop himming and hawing and watch the video already, okay!

P.S. I was hoping to show you all a video of Mary Murphy bopping her head and dancing around to Stevie Nicks -- but alas she got sleepy after a long, hot day reporting from the Emmy red carpet and went home to bed. I guess even super moms/super reporters need their beauty sleep.

P.P.S. Happy 37th birthday mom, you don't look a day over 35!
