Criss Angel is not a rip off Houdini but a tribute artist. Or, something like that. Despite lending “Believe” its name, I doubt Houdini could have mustered the concentration to sit through the show at Luxor.
There is a funny blog item from Phoenix New Times about Criss Angel’s escape a few days ago from a [...]
Tila Tequila has a new name and a new blog.
The new incarnation called Miss Tila is hosting tonight at LAX at Luxor. To keep things simple LAX is still calling her Tila Tequila.
Miss Tila’s blog kicks off with a big local Vegas story. She reports as “breaking news” that “Peepshow” star Holly Madison is getting [...]
According to LAX’s press release, the vacuous vacuum Tila Tequila will be hosting tonight. But LAX apparently did not get the news that Tila Tequila is no more.
Don’t cry yet.
The Tila Tequila tadpole has emerged a frog; the whatever she does celebrity has announced her rebirth as the newly minted celebrity blogger “Miss Tila (formerly [...]
I interviewed comedienne and writer Chelsea Handler yesterday to promote her upcoming Vegas show at Caesars at The Colosseum.
Look for the highlights of our conversation in an upcoming Vegas Seven closer to the May 29 date of the show.
But as we spoke yesterday news was shooting around the Internet of a supposed sex tape Handler [...]
Yesterday I spoke to magician Lance Burton who announced his decision to end his show at the Monte Carlo with his final performance on September 4, 2010. The Lance Burton Theatre has hosted his family friendly magic show since the Monte Carlo opened in 1996. Over the years, Burton has become an iconic presence for [...]
I’ve written on how odd it was that Wayne Brady’s successful show at the Venetian has been dark for months. New dates have finally been announced. Brady’s return dates: May 27 – 31, June 17 – 21, 24 – 28 and July 1 – 5. (Photo: Sarah Gerke)
It is official: Lance Burton will end his run at the Monte Carlo (that started in 1996) on September 4, 2010. In a press release, Burton makes no mention of rumors reported by Alicia Jacobs that he quit rather than make cuts to his show meant to save money. In the politic statement Burton is [...]
On Thursday I went to the rehearsal for the Michel Legrand tribute that took place Friday night at the MGM Grand Garden Arena. I was there to interview Frank Sinatra Jr. who is appearing at Suncoast April 9-11. I have seen him perform in Vegas before and there is a similarity between his voice and [...]
I am constantly amazed by Penn & Teller. They break every Vegas headliner rule. One of the most important traditions in Vegas entertainment is to avoid divisive political issues. I doubt Criss Angel, for all his cartoon edginess, would ever voice an opinion on something as controversial as abortion. Yeah, I am serious. Headliners stay [...]
Earlier this week, I went to George Wallace at Flamingo. The comedian took a couple swipes at CityCenter. On the innocuous side, he wondered why people would want to live at Vdara with VD staring at them in big letters. More cutting was when he asked if anyone in the audience was staying at Aria. When [...]
