Risky business! Newlyweds Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder brave a wet reception for a good cause as they snuggle up to a llama on the red carpet
Schmoozing is a way of life in Hollywood, but on Friday night, schmoozing came with serious consequences.
Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder got up close and personal with a new pal at Heifer International's Annual Beyond Hunger Gala - but like a lot in Tinsel Town there was no guarantee he would play nice.
The couple risked getting spat on as they were joined on the red carpet by Lucky the Llama at the Montage in Beverly Hills, California.

Making friends: Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder got up close and personal with a new pal at Heifer International's Annual Beyond Hunger Gala in Beverly Hills on Friday night
Fortunately for the finely dress pair, their new furry friend decided to be on his best behaviour and obliged them with a few photographs.
Perhaps the animal knew the important nature of the event - Heifer International is a nonprofit working to end poverty and hunger through community development - so thought it best to be supportive and not spit.
For the gala, Nikki wowed on the red carpet - or in this case green carpet - by skipping a gown in favour of a jumpsuit.
The 27-year-old's one piece featured a subtly sexy lace panel at the front with a lace edging across the bustline.
One and done: For the gala, Nikki wowed on the red carpet - or in this case green carpet - by skipping a gown in favour of a jumpsuit
Jump into lace like Nikki
Jumpsuits seem to be on the trend lately. Stars from Kylie Jenner, Kendall Jenner, Selena Gomez, Rihanna, Gigi Hadid and a slew more have incorporated the style into their wardrobe.
Not only is it simple and effortless but you can glam it up or down!
Nikki Reed decided to style her 'Anabella' jumpsuit by Naom Hanoch simply. She paired it with black sandals and a box clutch, BUT we love that she wore a bold lip in contrast with the dark attire.
Unfortunately, the exact jumpsuit is sold out but you can click over to FWRD and shop the Naom Hanoch collection.

The Twilight actress kept things simple by wearing a pair of patent leather single strapped heels, carrying a black and white hard cased clutch and skipping wearing any big jewellery.
Nikki added a pop of colour with her coral red lipstick that was in contrast to the rest of her makeup which was very understated.
Looking suave as always, her husband of five months stepped out in a pair of dark grey jeans with a white undone buttoned shirt and a black jacket.

Obviously Lucky the Llama was not too worried about being the third wheel, as he quickly found another new friend in Ryan Newman.
The Sharknado star seemed particularly taken by the furry beast attempting to give him a kiss.

Showdown: Lucky did have competition for curtest animal on the red carpet, as also attending was Lamb Chop with her pal Mallory Lewis
However, Lucky was not having a bar of it, pulling away from the pretty actress but luckily not giving her the spit treatment.
But Lucky did have competition for curtest animal on the red carpet, as also attending was Lamb Chop.
The lamb puppet and her pal Mallory Lewis walked the carpet together and Lucky the Llama mysteriously found other things to amuse himself.
Simply stunning: Nikki was not the only one to wow in a romper, with Orange Is The New Black star Uzo Aduba also taking on the all-in-one trend
Ladies' night: Giving their support to the charity was also Amy Smart, Danielle Campbell and Isabelle Fuhrman
Is that you? Also attending the event was the almost unrecognizable Napoleon Dynamite star Jon Heder with his wife Kristen
Nikki was not the only one to wow in a romper, with Orange Is The New Black star Uzo Aduba also taking on the all-in-one trend.
The actress shone in a white jumpsuit which was made more striking thanks to her wonderfully luscious hair that was styled so that it fell across one side her face with the ends curled.
Also attending the event was the almost unrecognizable Napoleon Dynamite star Jon Heder and blast from the past All in the Family actress Mindy Cohn.
Giving their support to the charity was also Amy Smart, Danielle Campbell and Isabelle Fuhrman.
Blast from the past: All in the Family actress Mindy Cohn also attended the event which is to help end hunger around the world through sustainable community development
