Malkin of 'The Insider' reports that Nick Lachey was well behaved while in Las Vegas over the weekend for the ubid.com Hurricane Katrina relief auction, even though wife Jessica Simpson was hundreds of miles away at Chateau Marmont hotel in West Hollywood with Lindsay Lohan. Though women swarmed him, he spent most of his time at the Empire ballroom event hanging with his brother and 98 Degrees bandmate Drew and AJ Discala. "There were girls all over Nick, but he was behaving himself," a fellow party-goer reported. "After the auction, when we were all backstage waiting for our cars to go to Tao, AJ yelled something about going to a strip club, but Nick did not go with him." Malkin also threw cold water on gossip that Nick was hitting on Jessica Biel, calling it "nothing more than friendly banter."
