Whether you’re a movie buff, a history nut or just a fan of the classics, you’ll feel like a kid in a candy store at The Auto Collections at The LINQ. Since 2000, The Auto Collections has been the nation’s largest classic car showroom, buying and trading more than 200 fully restored classic cars on display— and every car has a story. With an ever-rotating inventory, you never know what you’ll discover at The Auto Collections. No matter how many times you visit, there’s always a reason to come back. Ownership of past and present cars runs the gamut from heads of state and world leaders to stars of music, movies and stage—from a 1939 Chrysler Royal Sedan that belonged to talk show legend Johnny Carson to a 1962 Lincoln Continental Town Limousine used by President John F. Kennedy. And it’s not just the collection itself; the attention to detail on every car is remarkable. From color and paint to bells and whistles, every car is impeccably presented and maintained. Whether you spend an hour or several hours here, The Auto Collections is a truly rewarding experience for your eyes and imagination.
What do Olivia Newton-John, Britney Spears, Jenny McCarthy and Grumpy Cat all have in common? They’ve all taken a trip on the High Roller, the world’s tallest observation wheel towering 550 feet above the Las Vegas Strip. A relative newcomer, the High Roller is already one of the “must-visit” spots in town. The 28 massive, state-of-the-art pods offer everything from eight screens featuring videos, music and trivia to fully stocked bars in select pods as part of “Happy Half Hour.” Each holds up to 40 people, so group excursions are heavily encouraged. For an “only-in-Vegas” experience, you can even get married here! The High Roller offers a great social experience, but don’t miss out on the amazing views. As the pods slowly rotate during the 30-minute trip, you’ll get ever-escalating vistas of the Strip and Las Vegas Valley. As you hit that perfect angle, have your camera at the ready—this is why selfies were invented.
Las Vegas is referred to as the Entertainment Capital of the World, but spend a few hours at the Eiffel Tower Experience at Paris Las Vegas and you’ll feel like you’re in the Romance Capital of the World. The hotel itself already perfectly re-creates the cobblestone streets, shopping districts and art of its namesake, but the Eiffel Tower Experience is the icing on a very decadent French pastry. This half-scale replica of Paris’ iconic structure takes you up 460 feet in the air for incredible views of the Las Vegas Strip and beyond from the observation deck. Whether the two of you are gazing at tourists on the ground below or any variety of Strip sights, you’ll feel like you’re the only couple on Earth. It’s the perfect ambience for any date night. Fall in love all over again.

Celebrity-watching is a national pastime. Whether we’re flocking to Hollywood to catch our favorite star walk a red carpet or watching Extra for the latest news, we love to look at stars of stage, screen and YouTube. While you may not have come to Las Vegas for that specific purpose, don’t be surprised to find yourself with the opportunity to shoot a selfie of yourself with a celeb or two. Check out our “Out & About” page—stars love Las Vegas, whether it’s checking out the latest hot ticket on the Strip, dining at a world-class restaurant or enjoying the nightlife scene. In this issue, Steve Bornfeld takes a look at the celeb hot spot that is Andiamo Italian Steakhouse at The D. The list of stars who have eaten there is extensive and ever-growing, so grab a table there this week, order a few cocktails, and see what happens. If you’re a fan of the ’80s and ’90s, be sure to check out Kiko Miyasato’s coverage of Luxor’s nightclub LAX and its plans to bring back some of the most famous acts of that era. If you never got a chance to check out your favorite celebrities then, now’s your chance. If you don’t want to leave your celebrity encounters to chance, check out Mariah Carey at Caesars Palace. In addition to seeing one of the biggest stars on the planet perform an impressive catalog of hits, you just might catch a celebrity or two in the audience. That’s the thing about celebrities: They really are just like the rest of us.

Frankie Moreno Showman caps off a year of Smith Center performances
Frankie Moreno seems destined to become the next big headliner—the next generation in a lineage that includes Danny Gans, Elvis, Liberace and Sinatra. The piano-playing frontman is in the midst of a series of Tuesday-night tributes to classic entertainers, which started last year, at The Smith Center for the Performing Arts. He plays Cabaret Jazz on Feb. 16, March 1, 8, 22 & 29. Moreno chatted with Las Vegas Magazine’s Matt Kelemen recently. Were you surprised that the Smith Center made an offer to extend your residency? I was initially surprised, but the whole thing went so well. I went in thinking this was a great opportunity to play the room, I know some people will show if we promote it right, and we crossed our fingers. When it started selling out, it just took off like crazy. How much effort did it take to come up with a new set every week? We did a country night. We did a crooner’s night with Sinatra, Bobby Darin. We did a Mozart night where I had a full orchestra. We played piano concertos. Was it a challenge? It was the most challenging thing I’ve ever done in my musical career. Last year, you also performed at both Carnegie Hall and the Kennedy Center for the Sinatra tribute Let’s Be Frank. Did your association with violinist Joshua Bell lead to those opportunities? He’s become one of my best friends in the world. I would attribute to him a large part of everything that’s come my way since then. He introduced me to a whole new crowd. That was my initial crowd growing up. Classical music … I’m a Mozart groupie. I’m
24 2.14.16 LasVegasMagazine.com
a fan of music itself. It’s a drug to me. But Mozart, I’ve got his skeleton key from his apartment in Vienna. I wear it around my neck every single day. What’s ahead in 2016? We’re going to be starting a brand new project in town that I’m really excited about. I can’t really give away the details yet, but let’s just say I’ll be performing a lot more in Vegas. We’ve been touring so much, so I’m happy to be home. We’ll still play the Smith Center whenever we can. I love the room and everyone’s been so great to me. And then we’re starting our own brand of liquor. What does that entail? We were sponsored for a long time by Crown Royal starting when I was headlining at the Stratosphere, and started realizing that drinking hard whiskey every night probably wasn’t the smartest idea. Plus, girls didn’t like whiskey. They wanted vodka, so we moved over to a vodka company sponsorship, and then decided, “Why don’t we start our own company and make it exactly the way I want it to taste?” So we started this company called Angeltown Spirits. We put out a champagne that’s in all the Lee’s Liquors, and we just started a vodka, Frankie Moreno Vodka.

SCENE
300,000 Approximate number of visitors to Las Vegas during Super Bowl weekend in 2015.
According to the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, the average visitor to Las Vegas budgets $530 for gambling. So ... thank you! It could be argued that the cast of Chippendales the Show at Rio keeps at least one underwear company in business.
It’s Ladies Night
Britney Spears is one of the hottest tickets in town, and now you and your bachelorette party can experience her as a group with the latest package from VegasGirlsNightOut.com. The “It’s Britney, Bach!” package includes a ticket to Britney’s Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino show, Britney: Piece of Me, VIP access at Paris’ Chateau Nightclub & Rooftop and VIP entry to Drai’s Nightclub at The Cromwell. For groups of eight or more, the bachelorette receives a signed Spears photo. And the best part? No more stress while planning that perfect evening for your best friend.
Wine for a Cause
What’s better than enjoying a glass of really great wine? Enjoying it while knowing you’re helping a worthwhile cause. Lagasse’s Stadium at The Palazzo has partnered with OneHope Wine in Napa Valley to create Signature Series for all-star athletes Clayton Kershaw (2009 Bordeaux blend) and Chris Paul (2011 pinot noir). If you buy a glass of any of the Signature Series, a portion of the proceeds goes to help that athlete’s charity, with causes ranging from transitional housing for homeless families and job skills training to education and health. For more information, call 702.607.2665.

Each year, the cast tears through more than 12,000 tank tops. Carrot Top doesn’t just entertain his audiences at Luxor: He gives them shots as well! The redhaired comedian dispenses more than 110 gallons of Crown Royal every year. That enormous lion sculpture outside the MGM Grand—reported to be the biggest bronze sculpture in the Western Hemisphere— weighs in excess of 50 tons.
One question
Terry Fator If there is an afterlife, what tangible things would you not like to see there— and why? First of all, I do believe in an afterlife … or as we call it in show business, a contract extension. I’d like to believe that there is a better place for me to go after my life is done here in Las Vegas … and no, I don’t mean Pahrump. Now here is what I hope to not see there: • Traffic circles—too hard to navigate even for people in New Jersey. I can’t imagine what they would be like in heaven. • Taxes. I want to be able to say the only thing certain in the afterlife is ... death. • Ads with Flo the Progressive Insurance Lady. If I’m dead, I won’t need insurance. • A Philadelphia Eagles football jersey. I’ve seen their fans. I think I know where they’re ending up. • The second Star Wars trilogy. Why remind everyone of a bad time in our lives? • In truth, the one thing I would not like to see are those who have hatred in their hearts. We have so much of that here on earth. I hope and know that the afterlife will be a place filled with those who truly love. Terry Fator headlines on the Las Vegas Strip, performing in his Mirage theater at 7:30 p.m. Mon.-Thurs.

During his time as a headliner at The Mirage, Ray Romano has teamed up with Brad Garrett and Kevin James at various points, and now he’s bringing in another ’90s sitcom star to join him at his latest shows. David Spade is still best known for his years on Saturday Night Live and his movie work with SNL colleague Adam Sandler, but he spent multiple seasons on two long-running sitcoms: He played horndog fashion-magazine assistant Dennis Finch on Just Shoot Me, and he played horndog corporate manager Russell Dunbar on Rules of Engagement. Romano’s nine-season stint as the star of Everybody Loves Raymond is an even bigger achievement, and the family sitcom still airs regularly on cable and in syndication. Romano’s stand-up comedy is still family-focused, while Spade is more sarcastic and biting. Together they create a balanced evening, two veterans known for their work on TV who are equally at home telling jokes onstage, which is what got them those TV gigs in the first place. –Josh Bell

Made Quite a Name Naughty Laughs What to X-pect? Relax, the humor is far more clever than that opening line at “X” Comedy Uncensored Fun, where no one’s topless but the joke well is bottomless. While the show’s title suggest full-throttle raunchiness—salted with profanity, it’s not for kids and no one under 18 is admitted—the punchlines are more like saucy and sexy fun from a cast of Las Vegas-based comic acts introduced by married co-hosts John Bizarre and Nancy Ryan. (And if the X
28 2.14.16 LasVegasMagazine.com
in the title seems familiar, it’s because the show is another X-tension of the successful production brand around town that includes “X” Burlesque, “X” Rocks and “X” Country.) “Do you wanna hear a dirty joke?” Bizarre asks the crowd and is met with a resounding response. Samples? Well, there’s the one about the couple about to get frisky … no, we can’t tell that one here. That’s the point: You’ll just have to hear them for yourselves, you sexy thangs. –Steve Bornfeld
You can call New Jersey’s own DJ Hollywood the Mr. Las Vegas of nightlife. The DJ has been a prominent figure in Sin City’s bustling nightlife scene for more than 20 years, spinning at longgone venues such as RA and Pure. And his name suits him—he’s spun at high-profile parties for A-list celebs and worked with music legends Paul van Dyk, Tiësto and Grandmaster Flash. He’s quite the mover and shaker of Las Vegas, too; he has had his own radio show for six years. He jump-starts the weekend with back-to-back performances at Foxtail nightclub. –Chanelle Hayes SLS Las Vegas, 10:30 p.m. Feb. 19-20, cover charge applies, 21+. 702.761.7619 Ray Romano photo by Art Streiber John Bizarre photo by Edison Graff/Stardust Fallout

The Classic Way to Dine For more than 30 years, The Steak House at Circus Circus has been a perennial favorite, and for a very good reason. Las Vegas visitors make it a regular stop during their Sin City adventures, an institution beloved as much for its old Vegas style as for its food. And locals love it just as much, making the trip to the Strip to celebrate special occasions. Since it served its first meal, The Steak House has maintained its exhibition kitchen in the center of the dining room, the charcoalbroiling headquarters where the freshest steak and seafood get the finishing touches. A mighty bone-in ribeye and a plate-size porterhouse are the most popular options, but a velvety petite filet mignon is yours for the taking as well. From the ocean, there’s grilled garlic shrimp, lobster tails, king crab legs, salmon or halibut. Each of those tantalizing steaks or seafood dishes comes with soup or salad, fresh
baked bread, vegetables and garlic mashed potatoes, wild rice or a big baked potato with all the classic toppings. One visit and this will become a mainstay for you as well. –Brock Radke

Double Dose of Fantasy Two Mariahs on the Strip—it’s a double vision of love! Sammy Gonzales is one of the many talented female impersonators in The Linq’s drag extravaganza, Frank Marino’s Divas Las Vegas, a truly entertaining show that features some of the music industry’s biggest stars, like Gonzales as Mariah Carey. Across the street from the Divas showroom, the real Ms. Carey concludes her resident show, No. 1 to Infinity, at Caesars Palace, until the summertime. You could say Gonzales can pull rank, as he’s been performing on the Strip for years now as
Mariah, but there’s certainly enough Mariah to go around. In Divas, Gonzales impressively mimics the hand-to-god movements while hitting those high notes in “Emotions” and wraps the audience in musical love just like Mariah would in her famous cover of “I’ll Be There.” And he pulls off the glittery gowns, high sparkling heels and the signature flip of silky golden-brown hair that Mariah is known for. –Kiko Miyasato The Linq Hotel, 9:30 p.m. daily, $79.19-$101.19 VIP plus tax and fee, 12+. 702.777.2782
8 Noodle Bar’s Fortune Cookie It’s large. It’s large. And covered in white and dark chocolate. The Fortune Cookie at 8 Noodle Bar, the concoction of Red Rock Resort’s executive pastry chef Joseph Passalacqua, is approximately 6 inches in diameter, folded and dipped, and perfect for sharing. It’s an excellent ending to a flavorful meal, as is the irreverent fortune you’ll find inside.

Pop Star Love Britney Spears continues her reign
Dearest, darling, conveniently single, breathtakingly hot, galactically renowned Britney: Need a date, sweetie? Or a capital-R-type Relationship? Someone I know—i.e., moi—happens to be available. Am I worthy? Let me prove it via Britney: Piece of Me—Planet Hollywood’s high-production spectacle in which you’re a winged angel swamped by vampires; perform inside a ring of fire; gyrate atop a rolling pyramid; leap off a giant prop tree under a sheet of water; lead a dude around in a BDSM harness; and prance amid oversize spinning wheels, framed by massive video screens and backed by dancers so energetic they must be powered by generators. Plus two dozen hits. Those hits, Britbabe—they predict our love affair. Allow me to elucidate: “Work Bitch”: I’ll work for your affections, but when you sing, “You wanna Lamborghini ? / Sip martinis? / Look hot in a bikini?” … Will you settle for two out of three? “Womanizer”: Fear not, fairest Britney. Assuming you don’t mean I should enter some machine that turns me into one, the only woman I’d “womanize” is you. “Gimme More”: How’s it taste? “Gimme gimme more / Gimme more / Gimme gimme more / Gimme more.” If I’d known you were this hungry, I’d have made more meat loaf. That’s what you’re hungry for … right? “Toxic”: “Intoxicate me now / With your lovin’ now / I think I’m ready now.” … Apparently not. “I’m a Slave 4 U”: I’m into it, but can we use fur-lined cuffs? I chafe. “ … Baby One More Time”: Have mercy, woman! One more time and I’ll need a double hip replacement. We should end this. No, don’t cry! Oops … I did it again. –Steve Bornfeld Planet Hollywood Resort, 9 p.m. Feb. 14, 17, 19-20, 24 & 26-27, starting at $59 plus tax and fee. 800.745.3000 Ticketmaster

Burger Heaven It’s the ages-old argument: Who’s got the best burgers? The best part of settling this argument? You get to go out and visit lots and lots of great burger restaurants. And one you definitely need to add to the list is Shake Shack at New York-New York, a Las Vegas outpost of the Big Apple original. Featuring burgers, flat-top hot dogs, crinkle-cut fries and, obviously, shakes, Shake Shack makes for a great family outing. You order at the counter and stake out a table while waiting for your number to be called. Once you’re finished, order from a huge list of fresh-made
custards, shakes, cups and cones. We personally recommend the Shack-APalooza, a beast filled with custard, fudge, marshmallow and cookie dough that can feed four to six people. This year, Shake Shack added a newcomer to its menu: The Chick’n Shack, a chicken sandwich featuring lettuce, pickles and buttermilk herb mayonnaise. Who knows? One bite and you may soon find yourself debating who’s got the best chicken sandwich. –Ken Miller New York-New York, 11 a.m.-midnight Sun.-Thurs., 11 a.m.-2 a.m. Fri.Sat. 725.222.6730

BEST MAGIC SHOW

Adult Delights Sexxy is not your typical topless show. Not by a long shot. When is the last time you saw a strip tease to a song by Björk? But that’s just the beginning of the spirit of fun and excitement producer and performer Jennifer Romas brings to her high-energy show at Westgate. Sexxy hits on several different styles of dance from various generations performed by seven dancers, everything from a cabaret-style number accompanied by “Big Spender” to a hot little number performed on a lip-shaped couch to “Cherry Pie.” Master of ceremonies Gabriella Versace provides ample entertainment of her own, with her impressive pipes—singing “It’s a Man’s Man’s Man’s World” and “I Put a Spell On You”—and her comedic skills before and after bringing male audience members up on stage. But the real centerpiece here is Romas, who steals the show with her bathtub set piece, an intoxicating blend of dance and acrobatics. There’s also a sensual aerial number featuring a man and woman circling one another to “Tainted Love.” –Ken Miller

A Thing of Beauty Rich Flavor, Rich Views Whether it is at the top of a resort, just off the casino floor with all the associated energy there, or Stripside, taking in the bustling streetscape from an open patio, the view makes a big difference in where you dine. At Hexx Kitchen & Bar at Paris, that patio area stretches along the front and side, ensuring those vistas of the Strip and the Bellagio fountains. Hexx offers several pizzas and side dishes including a mac and cheese constructed

Several of Hexx’s plated desserts use one of the company’s dark chocolates, created in-house in the chocolate kitchen. –Nina King
All hail Iranda Dyer—Tournament of Kings’ first female horse rider. The medieval dinner’s first maiden is teamed with horse Nobilissimo, and together they perform dressage celebrating the king’s coronation. “I’m on horseback the whole time. I’m riding Nobilissimo through a routine that’s choreographed with eight dancers on the ground,” Dyer said. A relationship of trust is essential to the act. It took nearly four months of practice before the duo performed. “You form a friendship,” she said. –Kiko Miyasato Excalibur, 6 p.m. Mon. & Fri., 6 & 8:30 p.m. Wed.-Thurs. & Sat.-Sun., $75.36 dinner and show. 702.597.7600 Sexxy photo by Gabe Ginsberg Hexx Kitchen & Bar photo by Peter Harasty Tournament of Kings photo by Christopher DeVargas

Jam On
Taking the Lead Songstress Lisa Fischer’s phenomenal vocal range and her audience connection makes an evening of music with the artist memorable. For 40 years, Fischer was a backup singer for iconic acts such as Tina Turner, the Rolling Stones, Nine Inch Nails and Chaka Khan. Her 1991 Grammywinning R&B hit “How Can I Ease The Pain” and a duet with Mick Jagger on “Gimme Shelter” brought her major attention in the music industry. Her appearance in the Oscar-winning 2013 documentary Twenty Feet from Stardom featured her vocal and acting talents
and earned her a second Grammy. Now she’s bringing her considerable talents to the Smith Center. “Grand Baton and I will be doing songs that are in my DNA as a background singer and as an artist,” she said. “We try to weave and breathe those worlds together while we play in that melodic dream space coupled with other musical travelings.” Fischer will perform a wide variety of songs—everything from the music of Led Zeppelin and Little Willie John to progressive rock, Caribbean rhythms and much more. –Penny Levin
Busy Men Almost 16 years ago, Rascal Flatts released “Prayin’ for Daylight,” their first single. Since then, Gary LeVox, Jay DeMarcus and Joe Don Rooney have charted 15 No. 1 singles. Last year, they put another notch in their history belt, becoming the first country act with a residency at the Hard Rock. That went so well, that they’re back with Rhythm & Roots through March 5. With the show, they bring a hefty catalog of hits, including “Here Comes Goodbye,” “My Wish,” “I Melt” and “Bless the Broken Road.” –Susan Stapleton The Joint at the Hard Rock Hotel, 8 p.m. Feb. 17, 19-20, 24, 26-27, March 2 & 4-5, starting at $39.95 plus tax and fee. 888.929.7849

The camaraderie and chemistry exuded by the musicians of Raiding the Rock Vault (Tropicana, 800.829.9034) elevate the show to an expertly executed, heartfelt rock homage. Paul Shortino (Rough Cutt, Quiet Riot) croons through “Light My Fire,” Doug Aldrich (Whitesnake, Dio) straps on a left-handed white Stratocaster, in recognition of southpaw guitarist Jimi Hendrix, and Howard Leese (Heart, Bad Company) joins in for “All Along the Watchtower.” –Matt Kelemen

Change on the Way Bonding is an important part of Menopause the Musical in the showroom at Harrah’s. The longrunning production, billed as celebrating women and “The Change,” depicts four women at Bloomingdale’s in New York City, while shopping for, and fighting over, intimate apparel. The women comically commiserating over hot flashes, night sweats, memory loss and borderline psychotic episodes. They also frequently burst into song, delivering a string of musical parodies based on hits from the ’60s through the ’80s. Some of them get topically reworked, such as chart-toppers by Aretha Franklin (“Change, Change, Change”), Sonny & Cher (“I’m No Babe, Ma”) and the Bee Gees (“Stayin’ Awake/ Night Sweatin’”). Other parodies retain the source song’s title, including “Good Vibrations,” “What’s Love Got to Do With It” and “New Attitude.” By show end, the “fifth girlfriends” in the audience are invited to dance onstage, and the bonding is complete. –Matt Kelemen

Nightlife Dream
Fall in love with the party at Parisian-inspired hot spot Located Stripside at Paris, it’s not only the Chateau Nightclub & Rooftop name that screams fine elegance, it’s the nightclub’s posh interior design, intimate rooftop lounge and sophisticated celebrity clientele that are the icing on its gourmet cake. Designed by Amy Kim of AK DesignNetwork (whose work includes co-designing the stunning SLS Hotel in Beverly Hills), its style mixes modern design with old-world touches. Case in point? A digital version of one of Monet’s famous Water Lilies paintings. A spiral staircase, French design, sparkling chandeliers and a 10-foot oversize marble-mantel fireplace highlight the 45,000-square-foot, two-story complex, which sits under the arch of Paris hotel’s famed Eiffel Tower.

The outdoor environment at Chateau boasts some of the most extraordinary views of the Las Vegas Strip, especially the Fountains of Bellagio, which is located right across the street. Luxurious VIP booths are standard fare here, so if bottle service be your poison, it’s bottoms up. Depending on your mood for the evening—or perhaps your propensity for heights—take in the party scene from The Main Room or The Rooftop—two distinct experiences to choose from, each with its own nightlife vibe. The Rooftop sits right under the arches of the Eiffel Tower, while the Main Room is dimly lit and features modern French design, resulting in a seductive vibe. Resident DJs such as Shadow Red, Darkerdaze, ROI, Reaction and Blanco and Gambino
all spin on a regular basis, getting clubbers on their feet with hip-hop and top 40 tracks coming from the cutting-edge sound system. Aside from the music behind the booth, Chateau Nightclub & Rooftop also delivers when it comes to booking talent. Over the years, the nightlife venue has seen a diverse mix of celebrities, reality stars, athletes and entertainers such as Jennifer Lopez, the Hiltons, the Kardashians, Daniel Cormier, Backstreet Boys, Tone Loc, Coolio, Future and Nelly. Most recently Chateau played host for the AVN Awards Show and the annual Consumer Electronics Show. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff Paris, opens at 10:30 p.m. Wed. & Fri.Sat. 702.776.7777

Rhumbar cocktail server creates a welcoming mood Monica Duldulao, cocktail server at Rhumbar at The Mirage, didn’t break into the hospitality industry in regular fashion. There were no résumés sent out to prospective employers or searching the want ads; it went a bit differently. While working on her UNLV hospitality degree, she, like many of her fellow students, was required to participate in a mock interview. However, the interviews were conducted by actual Las Vegas hotel executives. “It was just for practice,” she said. “Usually no one gets hired during the mock interview process.” But by the time Duldulao was finished, she was offered a job, and that’s how she broke into the industry. While she’s worked at various venues since that first job, Duldulao has found a perfect fit

with Rhumbar, and is celebrating more than four years with the lounge. “Everybody here is like family to me,” she said. “I love this place. I would even hang out here if I wasn’t working.” But while on the clock, Duldulao helps to oversee the guests on the patio. “I like to make sure that everyone is pleased with the ambience, with the surroundings,” she said. That includes everything from serving the guests one of Rhumbar’s great specialty cocktails or setting a group up with hookahs or cigars to providing guests with great conversation. “You can come here and relax and have a delicious cocktail,” she said. “We have great DJs. You can dance or you can just chill. It’s just an all-around great package.” –Kiko Miyasato
Surely, you can’t come to Rhumbar without trying at least one drink from the classic cocktail menu. The recipes on this menu are sure to get two thumbs up (and perhaps a second order). Always a popular pick, and rightly so, is the Spicy Lover. It mixes 1800 Tequila Reserva Silver, muddled cucumber, cilantro and green and red Tabasco with fresh-squeezed lime juice, sweet agave nectar and green Chartreuse. It’s immediately refreshing, light and sweet—the slight kick and spicy finish complete each sip. It’s a flavor parade in a glass. –KM

Make It Marula Oils have been all the craze in recent years: argan, jojoba, coconut, macadamia and, now, marula oil. It’s harvested from the nut of the marula tree, which is native to Africa. The oil is high in fatty acids and antioxidants that assist in neutralizing free radicals, in cell renewal and in environment protection. It also hydrates, nourishes and heals the skin— ideal for types from dry to oily. It’s even good for sensitive skin, as it is fast-absorbing and light with antimicrobial properties. For the hair, marula oil hydrates, repairs and moisturizes without heaviness. This seemingly miracle oil is sneaking into products everywhere, including hand soap and makeup, so it won’t be hard to give it a try! –Sarah Redzikowski Drunk Elephant Umbra Sheer Physical Defense SPF 30

The 110-minute Contour & Firm body treatment involves exfoliation, a detox wrap, lymphatic drainage, a deep detox massage and a relaxing scalp massage.

away where they chow down on selections stretching from a pound and a half of Maine lobster to 32 ounces of ribeye steak. “I send them a limo, I bring them down to eat,” says Wilk, a veteran casino executive. “And we’ve hit TMZ a few times with things that have gone on there.” Through the tunneled entryway opening into the burnished décor of dark leather booths, velvet curtains and gentle lighting, the stars shine—such as Charlie Hunnam, who dined with Sons of Anarchy comrades Mark Boone Jr. and Chuck Zito. “(Other diners) are respectful because it’s a higher-
end restaurant,” Wilk says. “There were 10 women who knew he was there but they waited. When we got out, he got mobbed, but he took pictures with everyone.” Other thespians who’ve sampled suppers: the “super” contingent of Mehcad Brooks (Supergirl’s strapping James Olsen) and exMan of Steel Dean Cain; Edward James Olmos (Stand and Deliver, Miami Vice); Steve Schirripa (The Sopranos); Louis Lombardi (24, The Usual Suspects); and Pitch Perfect stars Skylar Astin and Anna Camp.

Anthony Olheiser is a man with a plan. He’s a veteran of the nightlife industry, and his plan is to offer an alternative in the nightlife experience. Clubs in Vegas are always evolving; change is inevitable. And with so many options for what a nightlife experience can be, how do people decide which party will be the party for them? The answer is LAX at Luxor. The name is one of many, but the nightclub is one of few that have kept its doors open and dance floors full year after year. It’s welcomed celebrities and tourists to party together since its 2007 arrival. And while the venue has received a face-lift and reprogramming throughout the years, the new look and feel has only added to its great history. After a large redesign this past summer—a change in color scheme, furnishings, lighting and sound systems, expanding the square footage for the DJ booth, VIP tables and dance floor—rejuvenating and refreshing LAX’s offerings were next. At the end of 2015, that plan was put in place. As the executive director of brand activation, Olheiser’s goal is to create a quality nightlife experience, but one that is accessible and affordable also. “There’s an opportunity for (LAX) to move the brand forward without rebranding it completely,” he says. “Re-creating, rejuvenating something that’s still valuable.” That
includes new LED screens, a redesign of the DJ booth and adding more lighting and upgrading the sound again. But besides the new cosmetic appeal of the club, Olheiser concentrates on the experience. “There’s so many people that come to Las Vegas to party, but there’s this group of folks that all they want is a quality experience,” he says. “My goal is to go back to what clubs were back in the day, when it was really about the party, really about the dancing, really about the experience. When (it) was approachable, affordable, fun and less of a business.” And, that strategy includes fostering up-and-coming DJs, a musical format that stretches from EDM and hip-hop to pop and top 40, and LAX’s newly branded Throwback Thursdays. That earmarked evening welcomes musical guests from

the ’80s, ’90s and early ’00s. The event has already welcomed guests like Vanilla Ice and DJ Spinderella of Salt-N-Pepa, with Young MC and Too Short coming in on Feb. 18 and March 10, respectively. And not only will the music make the party, but the ambience will change to suit the theme of each special guest, sending partiers back in time. “I want to have great content and events,” Olheiser says. “There’s an opportunity for LAX to move the brand forward, be approachable with our content. “I’m passionate about what I do, and if you have passion for what you do, that makes everything that much more successful. There’s a strategy with me being here, with the company, and leveraging a lot of the resources that we have. I’m very excited about LAX in 2016.”

ROBIN LEACH OUT & ABOUT
Strip Scribbles With his finger on the pulse of Las Vegas, Robin Leach is the go-to source for everything celebrity and entertainment related. For all the latest happenings and full stories, visit his blog at LasVegasSun.com. Mötley Crüe icon and Las Vegas resident Vince Neil will be among the 16 contestants on the next season of NBC’s Celebrity Apprentice, which is currently filming. Neil arrived in Los Angeles with 12 suitcases of outfits requested by producers for possible filming scenarios. “I’ll be raising money for great Las Vegas causes, so I hope the entire valleywide community will be supporting whatever it is we have to tackle,” he told me. “I’ve set myself a record target of $1 million.”
WhoWhatWhere Las Vegas resident and former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson and his family celebrated his son’s fifth birthday at Tournament of Kings at Excalibur. The production is adapted from tales of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table in the 900-seat theater-in-the-round
arena. Tyson and family enjoyed the no-utensils dinner and took selfies with the jester and knights. Britney Spears manager Larry Rudolph was seen at Westgate Las Vegas playing the new Britney slot machines. He enjoyed himself— even though he didn’t win. NHL legend Wayne Gretzky
celebrated his 55th birthday at Lavo in The Palazzo with his wife, Janet, and model daughter, Paulina, enjoying steaks and Caesar salads. Rapper Waka Flocka Flame performed at Drai’s Nightclub atop The Cromwell joined by record producer Southside, fellow rapper Talib Kweli and DJ Whoo Kid.
It might be the best-kept show-business secret in Las Vegas: What’s in the bath water at Sexxy in Westgate Las Vegas that allows star, choreographer and producer Jennifer Romas to slither over the porcelain tub for four thrilling minutes of ecstasy? She’s not telling, and since Romas herself mixes up the recipe, nobody else knows what’s poured in there to guarantee the fast ride. It’s kept more protected under lock and key than the ingredients in Coca-Cola! The late Elvis Presley received new recognition on the Las Vegas Walk of Stars when the Viva Las Vegas Elvis Presley Fan Club installed a new star for the King of Rock and Roll outside Mon Ami Gabi at Paris Las Vegas. Elvis’ star is now located near Engelbert Humperdinck’s, initiating a new line of future stars. Presley’s star had been in front of the Riviera, where it remained until last May when the Riviera closed and all of the stars were removed.
Celine Dion: ‘My family and I are deeply touched by the outpouring of love’ For the first time since the death of her husband and former manager, René Angélil, and the two-day funeral observances in Montreal, Caesars Palace headliner and global superstar singer Celine Dion has reached out to fans and friends who sent their condolences and words of support. Dion wrote on her website: “My family and I are deeply touched by the outpouring of love and support from so many people who have touched our lives during these past few days. We have felt your love for Rene, and your prayers and compassion have helped us during this most difficult time ... more than you’ll ever know. I thank you from the bottom
96 2.14.16 LasVegasMagazine.com
of my heart. I would also like to sincerely thank the Quebec government for honoring Rene with national funerals, as well as the many individuals and organizations who came together to hold such a beautiful tribute in his name. We will never forget all of the kindness that you have bestowed upon us. On behalf of our family, with all of our love, Celine, RenéCharles, Nelson & Eddy, Patrick, Jean-Pierre & Anne-Marie.” Dion traveled back to Las Vegas before for the “Celebration of Life” tribute to Rene set at the Colosseum in Caesars. She is scheduled to resume her residency there on Feb. 23. Mike Tyson photo by Christopher DeVargas Jennifer Romas photo by Edison Graff/Stardust Fallout Elvis Presley photo courtesy of MPTV.net
