    STRIPPERS AND HUSTLERS UNITE


    Perry Mann’s Exotic Erotic Strippers and Hustlers Ball (August 30 and 31, Orleans Arena, Las Vegas) has announced major additions to its already burgeoning talent lineup. For the gentlemen, gorgeous Penthouse Pet of the Year Erica Ellyson will be in attendance. For the ladies, The Men of Playgirl will be performing both nights. Adult studio Pink Visual – known for its artistry and design – will design the official poster for the event. Thirsty? Sex Vodka will be unveiling hot new drinks for the occasion. Two local Las Vegas favorites – Snake-Babe and Box-Man – will be performing. Snake-Babe is known for her dance exploits while draped with a serpent (or two), and Box-Man is a world-famous contortionist who has appeared virtually everywhere and whose nickname comes from his ability to shrink himself and fit into an uncommonly tiny box. Johnny Fratto – personality, businessman, reality TV producer, and frequent guest on TheHoward Stern Show will be showcasing his latest venture – Mob Candy Magazine, and he’ll also help judge the strippers competition.

    “I kept hearing about this big show going down in Vegas, and I was planning to go check it out anyway,” says Fratto, “and then my phone rings and now I’m a judge for the stripper competition. That’s very cool, because this sounds like a pretty hot show that will be a lot of fun.”

    Richard Vission will headline the first night, which also features Scooter and Lavelle, Drummer KC, Gen-XX, and the multi-sensory laser-filled wizardry of Mobius8. Gilby Clarke – a longtime member of Guns N’ Roses, and star of CBS’ Rockstar:Supernova, will join the Genitorturers – the world’s sexiest band – as headliners for the second night, which also features LA-based rockers D’amato, and Girls Girls Girls – an all-female Motley Crue tribute band. Rising hip-hop artist Chuck Nutt will perform the event's theme song My Stripper Lover , written by Perry Mann. Arielle Paige, a young and sexy songstress will make her Las Vegas debut performing her first release Dirty on the Dance Floor. All the main-stage activities will be hosted by the sinister and stylish Paul Nathan, who promises a few special surprises.


    Bobbi Billard, the multitalented myspace vixen who is ranked as the #1 most downloaded babe on the internet, will be on hand along with Asian supermodel Akira Lane to host some on-stage antics. Both ladies are stars of the horror classic remake Ice Scream – The Remix. The Porcelain Twinz, two gorgeous pale-skinned identical twin sisters who boast one of the hottest burlesque acts in the world, will be performing both nights. Schevelle , Miss Nude Entertainer of the Year 2006-2007, will also perform both nights.


    Strippers from Déjà vu, Palomino, Club Paradise and Olympic Gardens are among those that will compete for over $20,000 in cash and prizes both nights. The categories for the competition are Best Body, Best Dancer, and Best Pole Dancer. The semifinals will occur on stage at the Ball on August 30th, and the finals on August 31st. The competition will be hosted by Paul Nathan along with Heather Chadwell from VH-1’s Rock of Love and I Love Money.

    Billed as “a full weekend of eye-popping entertainment,” Perry Mann and company have created two evenings of cool music and hot, sexy performances. Says Mann – “The Strippers and Hustlers Ball is designed to top anything else Las Vegas has to offer this Labor Day Weekend!”

    The two-day show is Saturday, August 30, 2008 from 9PM til 4AM; and Sunday August 31 from 9PM til 4AM, all at The Orleans Arena in Las Vegas. The website is http://www.strippersandhustlersball.com Women attending the event are asked to dress like strippers, and gentlemen attending are asked to dress like hustlers.

    Armenians Take Over PURE

    It was an explosive evening on Friday night as reality show siren Kim Kardashian made a very special appearance at Sin City’s sexiest spot, the Pussycat Dolls Lounge inside of PURE Nightclub.  After rocking the red carpet alongside her mother and sisters, Kris, Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian, the brunette beauty transformed into a burlesque bombshell as she geared up to perform with the Las Vegas Pussycat Dolls.  As the clock struck almost one A.M the lights dimmed, the anticipation escalated inside the fan-filled lounge until the spotlight shone on the reality starlet in a sparkling black, white and pink ensemble.  With a mic in one hand and a beach ball in the other, she welcomed the crowd and explained that she was “feeling a bit dirty” and in need of a bath.  The audience, along with her family and friends, then cheered her on as she jumped into the lounge’s beautiful bath tub and  proceeded to splash around, alluring all with a seductive introduction to the show. Later on after the Las Vegas Pussycat Dolls wowed the packed house, Kim reemerged center stage in a sultry sailor outfit and announced that it was “ladies’ night for the Kardashian clan.  No boyfriends, no brothers, no nothing!”  Kim thanked the crowd for coming and gave a few shout outs to her “sexy” siblings and mother before joining her family and friends to catch the remainder of the show.  Afterwards, she returned to the stage where the creator of the Pussycat Dolls phenomenon, Robin Antin, thanked her for taking the time to join the troupe.  The Kardashian bunch then headed into PURE where they enjoyed two luxurious, white leather VIP booths adjacent to the DJ Booth on the main stage.  After changing into a beautiful blue strapless dress, Kim immediately paid a visit to the DJ booth where she got on the mic and said hello to the sea of partiers.  She then requested that DJ Hollywood play “Gimme More” by Britney Spears and began dancing with sister Kourtney. The gorgeous group of girls soaked in the excitement of the superclub until they left just before 3am.  Also in the crowd was John Dolmayan best known as the drummer for the Armenian-American alternative metal band System of a Down
     
    Earlier in the night, Audrina Patridge spent an evening with good friends and good food at chic eatery Social House. Seated outside on the restaurant’s patio, The Hills hottie and her friends savored assorted sushi rolls, kobe sliders and sake as they soaked in a stunning view of The Strip.

    AFTER 10 YEARS OF TRAVELING, PAUL OAKENFOLD HAS FINALLY FOUND A HOME AT RAIN NIGHTCLUB

    Las Vegas based N9NE Group and Palms Casino Resort proudly announce Paul Oakenfold, one of the world’s leading DJ/remixers, to hold court at Rain Nightclub beginning this Fall in his first Resident DJ position in the United States.

    “Paul Oakenfold Presents: Perfecto Las Vegas” was conceptualized specifically for Rain Nightclub, the legendary 25,000 square-foot nightclub and concert venue at the Palms Casino Resort known for its special effects and international headliner acts. Named after his label, Perfecto Records, the show will take place every Saturday beginning August 30th through Summer 2009. Oakenfold is slated to perform at 26 of the show dates with other internationally-acclaimed DJs performing in his absence. “This will be the most extravagant nightlife experience Las Vegas has ever seen,” says N9NE Group Vice President Michael Fuller. “It will include everything from video and audio entertainment to performance artists and props.” Oakenfold’s residency starts immediately following the completion of his global “Greatest Hits & Remixes Tour,” a 20-selection strong collection of his seminal dance recordings and remixes that celebrates the career of an artist whose combined releases have totaled almost two million in sales in the U.S. alone. Oakenfold is a two-time GRAMMY nominee, and his 2004 album “Another World” remains the best selling dance album of all time. Oakenfold has previously held DJ residencies at Cream Nightclub and Home @ Leicester Square in the U.K.

    The N9NE Group’s dedication to diversifying the types of music played at its venues was a key factor in Oakenfold’s decision to sign on as Resident DJ of Rain Nightclub. “There is nowhere in America other than Las Vegas that I would want to be a resident DJ,” Oakenfold says. “It is the world’s oyster, and the Perfecto nights at Rain Nightclub are going to take clubbing to a whole new level.”

    INNOVATIVE DINING GROUP BRINGS KATANA, THE SUNSET STRIP FAVORITE,

    IDG announces plans for a spectacular new version of their successful sushi and Robatayaki concept in Vegas’ revolutionary urban metropolis

    Innovative Dining Group (IDG), the prominent Los Angeles-based restaurant group, announces plans to bring Katana restaurant to Las Vegas’ unprecedented CityCenter development, as part of The Crystals, a 500,000 square foot retail and entertainment district due to open December 2009. IDG was the first to bring Robatayaki into mainstream dining with the opening of Katana on Los Angeles’ Sunset Strip in 2001. In Los Angeles, the widely popular restaurant exemplifies L.A.’s scene and showcases the artistry and diversity of Japanese cuisine in a vibrant atmosphere filled with a combination of guests ranging from foodies to celebrities.

    The CityCenter Katana location is destined to become the preeminent venue for enjoying exceptional Robatayaki and sushi in Sin City, with an impeccably designed space that will embody the quintessential Vegas experience. Katana at CityCenter joins IDG’s existing Vegas restaurants Sushi Roku and BOA Steakhouse, both located in the Forum Shops at Caesars Palace, and awarded with Epicurean Awards for “Best New Restaurant” and “Best Japanese” respectively, by Las Vegas Life. In Los Angeles, IDG’s expanding empire of stylish fine dining venues includes additional Sushi Roku and BOA Steakhouse locations as well as new concepts Robata Bar and Luckyfish.

                IDG partners Lee Maen, Craig Katz, and Philip Cummins pride themselves on breaking new ground with their trendsetting concepts and on their role in the continued evolution of fine dining. Maen says of the project, “CityCenter is an unrivaled development that brings together the best of the design, entertainment, and culinary realms, and we would look for nothing less for the unveiling of the Katana concept in Las Vegas.”

    IDG will take the cutting-edge design of the original Katana to the next level with glamorous and opulent details. The 10,000 square foot space will feature Katana’s signature Robatayaki and sushi bars, as well as a stunning lounge area and large private dining rooms on a mezzanine overlooking Katana and The Crystals.

    The menu at Katana showcases the best of Japanese cuisine, including premium sushi, sashimi tempura, and the restaurant’s unique specialty, Robatayaki. At Katana, the Robatayaki method of cooking involves grilling market-fresh ingredients on bamboo skewers over Japanese-imported Bincho Tan charcoal. Robatayaki specialties include Filet Mignon-Wrapped around Foie Gras and Asparagus; King Crab Legs; and Japanese Wagyu Beef. Guests at Katana at CityCenter can enjoy the scene and cuisine for lunch as well as dinner.

    PEACHES GELDOF MARRIES IN VEGAS

    In another TheVegasEye.com and WENN exclusive; SIR BOB GELDOF's daughter PEACHES has married in Las Vegas. The 19-year-old socialite wed Max Drummey last week, whilst she was on vacation in America. Geldof met 23-year-old Drummey, the drummer in rock band Chester French, two years ago. The teenager was recently rumoured to be dating Faris Rotter, from
    British band The Horrors. A spokesperson for Geldof confirmed the nuptials in a statement to Heat magazine's website Heatworld.com, "Peaches and Max Drummey are delighted to announce their very happy marriage. The couple tied the knot in a simple low-key ceremony in Las Vegas last week. "Their marriage has the full support of their family and friends. Peaches and Max did not want unnecessary publicity, but following growing media speculation, have decided to set out the facts. No further comment from either will be forthcoming."

    Once back in England, Peaches Geldof appears to be flouting the rules her dad Sir Bob laid down with regards to her party lifestyle. She turned up at Maddox club with new husband Maxwell Drummey  and after a few hours they left together and headed back to her North London apartment, looking rather embarrassed.

    Green Fairy hits LA

    Cocktail hour has never been more mystifying than at Maison 140 Beverly Hills’ L'Heure Verte or "The Green Hour," a daily absinthe tasting experience recently introduced at the hotel’s intimate Bar Noir. Stylishly bringing absinthe to the Los Angeles crowd after a 96-year ban in the U.S., Maison 140’s French-inspired setting provides a perfect location from which to enjoy this much-celebrated aperitif.
     
    Served nightly, at a price of $5 per glass, guests can celebrate the triumphant return of this formerly-banned liquor by observing one of alcohol's most inventive pours, demonstrated by the centuries-old French-serving ritual associated with this high-proof emerald elixir.
     
    Concocting the “Green Fairy”
    Arriving at a drinkable glass of absinthe requires short, but dramatic steps. A few ounces of “Le Tourment Vert” absinthe  (100-proof, 50% alcohol content) are poured into a glass, which is then followed by equal parts of ice water chilled in a specially-designed absinthe fountain. The cocktail is finished with a flourish of cascading water over a sugar cube, which sits perched atop a special slotted-silver spoon, lying across the glass. With five parts water, one-part absinthe, the concoction, known as the Green Fairy, becomes a delicious aperitif. Guests can also opt for a fierier spectacle, which includes the setting of the sugar cube ablaze before melting it into a snifter glass of absinthe, and cooling it down with ice cubes.
     
    About Absinthe
    The mysterious allure of absinthe is unparalleled in the annals of history—due in part to the myths and lore that surround it. Its most notorious and recently dismissed assignation identified absinthe as promoting drug-induced, psychotropic effects – side effects under which many claim to have seen the illusive “green fairy.” Derived from the flowers and leaves of the herb, Artemisia-absinthium (more commonly known as wormwood), absinthe’s popularity dates back to 19th Century France, where it was highly-revered by café society and by the bohemian sub-culture. Loyal devotees of the drink included Vincent Van Gogh, Charles Baudelaire, Oscar Wilde and numerous other historical figures.
     
    “L'Heure Verte” Details:
    Cost per drink is $5
    Every evening from 5 to 7PM
    Parking is complimentary.

      MGM Mirage, Hilton Hotels Corporation and Trump may be vying to take advantage of developer Ian Bruce Eichner's financial troubles and take over the foreclosed Cosmopolitan casino project.

    Deutsche Bank announced this week it would foreclose on the Las Vegas Strip luxury casino complex, after Eichner defaulted in January on a $760 million loan, and has been unable to obtain alternate financing.

    The bank has been reluctant to take over the project, which was slated to open in late 2009. Even seasoned casino operators are struggling to maintain business in the current economic environment, and the bank's directors prefer to stay in the banking business rather than run a destination resort.

    Thus, TheVegasEye.com has learned that the bank has contacted companies to either buy out the project, or perhaps enter into a partnership running the casino. MGM, Hilton and Trump are all prominent among the interested parties, although MGM already has significant exposure in its CityCenter construction, one of several multi-billion dollar investments begun on the Strip at the most inappropriate of financial times.  Troubles started early on in the project when the name has brought problems, as Cosmo magazine has sued to prevent any misconception concerning their involvement.

    The Cosmopolitan was planned to host two high-rise towers, a sandy beach and pool overlooking the Strip, and three wedding chapels. As well as, a deal struck by Michael Politz that would feature the largest champagne bottles popping its cork above the Las Vegas Strip.
