NOTES

UPCOMING Come back soon!

From the Editor Before the curtain

I’ve been to many shows on the Las Vegas Strip, and whether it’s a comedian, production show or musical review, there’s one thing all these shows seem to have in common: The enormous aura of confidence the performers exude the minute they come onstage. I often see them in my mind’s eye, nervously pacing the backstage area just as they are about to be introduced, but if there’s any nervousness in the minute they enter the spotlight, I never see it. It got Las Vegas Magazine writer Steve Bornfeld thinking: What do our city’s top performers do to relax before a show—or perhaps psyche themselves up? Steve interviewed just about every headliner you could imagine to figure out this question, and the answers, contained in his feature on page 54, may surprise you. One thing is for sure: The more we learn about the entertainers we idolize and visit Las Vegas to see, the more we realize they are just like us. Supertalented versions of us, but still … Speaking of talent, Guy Fieri’s newest Las Vegas outpost, El Burro Borracho, is already causing buzz, and once you’ve eaten there, you’ll likely be adding to it. Check out our coverage on page 44, and then do yourself a favor and make a reservation. And rodeo fans will be in heaven this week with the arrival of Las Vegas Helldorado Days, highlighted by the Last Cowboy Standing competition, featured on page 32. There’s just too much good stuff to do in Las Vegas—all presented with an aura of confidence.

Antonio Sabato Jr.

Star dances into Chippendales role Antonio Sabato Jr. can charm the pants right off of you … but it’ll be his clothes that come off, as he takes on the role of guest host for Chippendales The Show at Rio. The Calvin Klein model, actor and dancer (he competed on Dancing With the Stars) gets ready to don the famous bow ties and cuffs for a six-week run that kicked off May 5. Las Vegas Magazine’s Kiko Miyasato sat down and chatted with Sabato Jr.—or, as he joked, “call me Magic Tony”—ahead of his extended run in the show. What was your reaction when you got the call to guest star in Chippendales The Show? I got a call from them actually over a year ago, but I was working and on the road with a TV show and just finished doing Dancing With the Stars, so I couldn’t do it at that time. But, now that I’m free, I was like, “Yes, of course.” I think there’s a part of me that just wants to have a great time, a ball, just make those women crazy. I’m 44 years old and when you’re asked to come and do a show like this—it’s a compliment, a huge compliment. I talked to my wife and she said, “Let’s do it, let’s have a great time, let’s make this the best.” Can you reveal what you’ll be doing in the show? I’ll be doing several numbers. I’m going to be hosting and emceeing at times. Take some stuff off. Give the audience some pieces of my tank top. And there’s a possibility I might come back and do it again in August. So, this time, now, I’m gonna do a really good run and really be part of the show. There’s about 15 or so numbers and I’m gonna be in about six or seven of them. I’m going to be a part of the show from the beginning, middle and end. But I think I’m going to enjoy it so much that I want to come back in August and actually have my own number. I told (the cast) about it and they’re into it.

24 5.8.16 LasVegasMagazine.com

What’s more nerve-wracking: this show or seeing your 90foot Calvin Klein billboard in Times Square in the ’90s? I think this one, because of the excitement that builds up. This is a good thrill. The billboard was overwhelming to say the least, but Chippendales, you’re right in the audiences’ faces, doing your thing. It’s so close; you’re breaking every type of wall, every protection. Do you have any tricks that you’ve used throughout your career that settles your nerves or gets you in the zone? (Here) I got together with the group of guys, the cast, and sat down and talked about everything, the show. The Chippendales cast—these guys are awesome. These guys are very ... man, they work, and two different shows some of them are doing. (Some) work all day and all night. They’re part of Vegas; they know the drill; they’re nonstop. I’m happy to be around these guys, man, they’re pros. You’ve heard the words “sex symbol” throughout your career—and probably now more than ever being a part of Chippendales. What do those words mean to you? Makes me feel good. It’s a huge compliment. Even from the ’90s,

2000s to now—there’s always been that term “sex symbol.” I take it with pride, I guess, and I say. yes. What other ways can I take it? I take it for what it is. That I can still be called a sex symbol in my 40s—that’s a good thing! I tend to stay on the positive side of things no matter what. I choose the positive. What do you want to tell the ladies about being a cast member of Chippendales now? What’s your message?

“Doors are open, baby!” Seriously, I can’t wait. You know, I’m psyched. I never knew I was going to do Dancing With the Stars, and I did it. And now, Chippendales. I’m so fortunate that I get asked, and offered jobs. But you never know what you’re going to do. There’s only a small group of guys that are associated with Chippendales. And there’s even less celebrity hosts over so many years. So this is a good thing. Not many can say they were a Chippendale!

$350 million Personal net worth of Jay Leno, who retired as host of NBC’s Tonight Show in 2014. Leno, a frequent visitor to Las Vegas, performs at The Mirage on May 13.

Ventriloquist Paul Zerdin, who performs at Planet Hollywood Resort, may be a new face to the U.S., but he’s actually pretty well-known in his native Great Britain, where he’s been performing the last 25 years.

Taste the Season

One of the best parts about spring? In addition to nicer weather, restaurants begin breaking out seasonal menus. And Nove Italiano at the Palms has a doozy, available through May 31. Start with semolina ricotta dumplings with brown butter, then make your way to two-way soup made with fava purée, cannellini beans and goat cheese. Then move onto signature dishes like pan-seared Alaskan cod, a 32-ounce porterhouse with garlic Parmesan spinach orzo and braised chicken with goat cheese-wrapped Sicilian figs. Don’t skip dessert—a gelato split with pear gorgonzola. For more information, call 702.942.6800.

It’s Time for Wine

If you’re in the mood for a glass or two, you’ll want to check out the Golden Nugget’s eighth annual Spring Wine Fest. The two-day event celebrating the winemakers of California’s Napa and Sonoma valleys features a poolside kickoff party on May 13 at 8 p.m. and a Grand Tasting on May 14 at 7 p.m. in the Grand Event Center. More than 25 wineries are represented at the Grand Tasting, including Silver Oak Cellars, Cakebread Cellars, Franciscan Estates, Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars and Duckhorn Wine Company. Tickets are $45 for the May 13 wine reception and $89 for the May 14 Grand Tasting, plus tax and fee. And $5 from each ticket benefits the Animal Foundation.

One question

Claire Sinclair What childhood experience had the most impact on the adult you’ve become? I remember when I was about 7 years old, my dad brought home a piece of pinup artwork and hung it in our living room. I was so enthralled with this painting. I asked if the woman depicted was a real person or just someone the artist created. My dad told me that it was Bettie Page, a famous pinup model. I remember saying something like, “So she gets to play dress-up in costumes for a job?” And when I heard the answer was yes, I must have asked like a dozen times to confirm, because I was in shock that that was a real thing! I said, “I’m gonna do that when I grow up!” In high school, I kept that same painting of Bettie Page in my binder. When I was 18, I posed for the same artist who made the painting—Olivia De Berardinis. In my Playmate of the Year shoot (Playboy magazine, 2011) I re-created that painting. If I had never seen that photo my life would be completely different! It planted the seed in my head for what would become the theme of my entire career. Claire Sinclair performs in PIN UP at Stratosphere. Performances are 9:30 p.m. Thurs.-Mon. Call 702.380.7777 for tickets.

Truly a Legend Although Lionel Richie had helped propel The Commodores to fame, the success of his No. 1 duet with Diana Ross “Endless Love” in 1981 set him on a solo career course. His decision was validated when “Truly” hit No. 1

in 1982. Richie went to No. 1 again with “All Night Long” in 1983 and “Hello” in 1984, as well as with benefit single “We Are the World” with Michael Jackson. In 2012, the superstar musician parlayed the musical

momentum generated by his smash 2012 album Tuskegee into a tour that lasted more than two years. And that culminated this year in Richie’s All the Hits residency at Planet Hollywood Resort.

Get Back to Motoring Night Ranger bridged the gap between ’70s rock and the ’80s hair metal scene, carving out its own niche as a band of its time but forever known for practically inventing the power ballad with blockbuster hit “Sister Christian.” It formed in San Francisco in the early ’80s when singer/bassist Jack Blades and guitarist Brad Gillis joined forces with singer/drummer Kelly Keagy and keyboardist Alan Fitzgerald, who suggested bringing in guitarist Jeff Watson to complete the trademark twin-guitar lineup. Although Gillis and Watson were at the top of the ’80s guitar-hero mountain, their virtuosic, expressive styles always served Night Ranger’s hook-heavy songs. Night Ranger caught on nationally when “Don’t Tell Me You Love Me” from debut album Dawn Patrol went into heavy rotation in MTV’s early days, but it was 1983’s Midnight Madness

The Orleans, 8 p.m. May 14-15, starting at $34.95 plus tax and fee. 702.284.7777

with Keagy’s vocal on “Sister Christian” and hits “When You Close Your Eyes” and “(You Can Still) Rock in America” that earned them the fans that still fill venues from the States to Japan. The band’s fortunes waned with the close of that decade and the musicians went different

ways, but Keagy reformed the lineup in the mid’90s, and Blades and Gillis are now joined by Eric Levy on keyboards and guitarist Keri Kelli— the lineup that will appear on the DVD and audio recordings from their May 7 show at Chicago’s House of Blues. –Matt Kelemen

Heck of a Hitmaker That Rat Pack Atmosphere Las Vegas is a city of continual transformation and improvement. But the heart of it all remains old Vegas—the one that the Rat Pack used to famously gallivant through. It does still exist—you just have to know where to look. One of these oases is downtown at The D in Joe Vicari’s Andiamo Italian Steakhouse. Steaks are aged for a minimum of 30 days, resulting in more tender cuts. The filet mignon is a classic cut but if you want to

impress your friends—and onlookers elsewhere in the dining room—order the charred Andiamo tomahawk instead. On the pasta front, house-made pappardelle arrives in a rich, complex veal ragu fitting the definition of rib-sticking meal. For a lighter option, agnolotti are tender bundles of ground pork and beef in tomato basil sauce. Either provides a worthy foil to a charred steak. –Jim Begley The D, 5-11 p.m. daily. 702.388.2220

Brooklyn-native Busta Rhymes made his mark in hip-hop in the mid-’90s as a member of Leaders of the New School. Busta’s part in it all resulted in him branching off into a solo career, and a successful one at that. His catalog of hits is extensive: “What’s It Gonna Be?!,” “I Know What You Want,” “Break Ya Neck,” “Make It Clap,” “Pass the Courvoisier Part II” and “Touch It,” just to name a few. This weekend, the hip-hop legend performs his classics at Foxtail nightclub. Do we really wanna party with him? Yes, Busta, we do. –Chanelle Hayes SLS Las Vegas, opens at 10:30 p.m. May 14, cover charge applies, 21+. 702.761.7619

Once and Future Idols The passage of the 15th and final season of American Idol may leave viewers feeling lost, but the legacy of past finalists lives on. It’s been a decade since Elliott Yamin and Blake Lewis placed high in seasons five and six, respectively. Now they’ve teamed up for The Soul Box Tour, an expanded version of a test run they embarked on last year. The association dates back to season six when Yamin, inaugurating a tradition of visiting American Idol during the final weeks, met Lewis backstage. Lewis returned the respect by attending a Yamin concert with season six finalists Jordin Sparks and Chris Richardson, and Lewis and Yamin wound up performing together in an Idol alumni show.

For The Soul Box Tour, Lewis and Yamin perform duets and separate sets, with Lewis’ soulful vocals and Yamin’s penchant for beatboxing inspiring the tour’s name. Lewis has provided organic percussion to accompany Yamin on songs such as “Give It to You” from Yamin’s 2015 album As Time Goes By. And Yamin’s assistance reproducing the multilayered vocals in Lewis’ No. 10 hit “Break Anotha” or backing Lewis on “Not Today” from the latter’s 2014 album Portrait of a Chameleon should offer hope to faithful followers of the holy grail of contestant-based reality shows. –Matt Kelemen Vinyl at Hard Rock Hotel, 7:30 p.m. May 14, starts at $17 plus tax and fee. 888.929.7849

A Wonderland of Fire and Water The production of “O” makes a spectacular entrance, as the crimson curtain is not so much peeled back from but pulled into the abyss of a glittering pool. Synchronized swimmers splash, “zebras” cavort on the side of the pool and birds dive about, starting the surrealistic images that flow through the remainder of the show as an audience volunteer weaves in and out of other scenes. Platforms appear, providing acrobats an environment on which to ply their trade—contortionists balancing on small pads, an energetic

fire act and a human torch who doesn’t even seem to notice the flames. Colorfully garbed characters, such as the queen, float in the background. And the show’s celebrated synchronized swimmers play fanciful creatures teeming in the sparkling waters. Our volunteer watches and waits and joins in, till from a floating basket the red curtain unfurls and he leaves, like us, a witness to the magnificence of “O.” –Nina King Bellagio, 7 & 9:30 p.m. Wed.-Sun., $98.50$155 plus tax and fee. 702.693.8866

Ice Cream Sandwiches If there has to be a reason to stop in for brunch, this just might be it. At Giada in The Cromwell, brunch is a beautiful thing, where you can enjoy a prix fixe tasting menu. And it’s almost a certainty you’ll want to end with these: lemon-ricotta cookie ice cream sandwiches. Giada DeLaurentiis’ signature cookies get a scoop of flavorful, tangy raspberry and creamy buttermilk gelato between lightly iced and zested layers—it makes brunch just that much sweeter.

Celebrating the West

Bull riding competition and rodeo highlight Helldorado festival Over time, Las Vegas has become the home for a number of Western and rodeo sports events, including the massive National Finals Rodeo each December. But the city’s association with Wild West activities goes all the way back to at least 1934, when Clyde Zerby founded the Helldorado Days festival. Soon taken over by the local Elks Lodge, Helldorado Days became a family-friendly Las Vegas institution, including a parade, rodeo events and various contests. Now the Professional Bull Riders have teamed up with the Elks to reinvigorate the festival, combining the annual PBR Last Cowboy Standing event with the various Helldorado rodeo activities for a jam-packed weekend of roping and riding.

32 5.8.16 LasVegasMagazine.com

Last Cowboy Standing is one of four major PBR events during the year, which the organization likens to the “Grand Slam” tennis tournaments. This year’s Last Cowboy Standing features the top 40 competitors in the PBR, including J.B. Mauney, currently ranked PBR’s top bull rider, who’s looking to win a third PBR world championship (he previously won in 2013 and 2015) before he retires. As befits its name, Last Cowboy Standing has its participants compete in multiple rounds of bull riding over the course of several days, until the one who has ridden the most bulls emerges as the winner. That winner takes home $100,000 and increases his chances of becoming this year’s PBR world champion.

Beyond LCS, the weekend features rodeo competitions as part of Helldorado Days, all taking place at the Las Vegas Village on the Strip. Cowboys at Helldorado Days will participate in bareback riding, steer wrestling, team roping, barrel racing, bull riding and more. It’s a weekend that honors Vegas’ rich Wild West history while aligning it with the excitement and high stakes of modern Western sports. –Josh Bell Las Vegas Village, festival opens at 10 a.m. May 13-14, opens 2 p.m. May 15, $10; PBR Last Cowboy Standing, 7:50 p.m. May 13-14, starting at $25; Rodeo, 3 p.m. May 13-15, starting at $15; all plus tax and fee. 800.745.3000 Ticketmaster

Tribute Titans One of the keys to a long-running Las Vegas show is to include an element that makes it crucial for the audience to come back. That’s part of why Legends in Concert is the Strip’s longest-running hit: It’s continually adding cast members to its list of impersonators, and the attention to detail, from appearance to mannerisms to singing ability, is staggering. Simply put, Legends hits all the right notes. The current lineup of impersonators includes Adele, The Blues Brothers, Michael Jackson and Prince. As Adele, JC Brando should tug at your heartstrings as she sings the current smash single “Hello.” Then get ready to get out of your seat and dance along to Eric Martin and Carmen Romano as The Blues Brothers, who perform some of the Saturday Night Live duo’s greatest hits. It’ll be a thriller to watch Damian Brantley live in action as Michael Jackson. And, last but not least, you’ll have to fight the urge to “Go Crazy” for Frank Moore as he replicates the late, great Prince with both his looks and sounds. –Ken Miller

Eighties Giants Walking In The rock bands that have taken up limited residencies at The Joint inside the Hard Rock Hotel read like a who’s who of hard rock royalty: Mötley Crüe, Def Leppard, Guns N’ Roses, Kiss, Journey. Two names will be added to that list when headliners the Scorpions are joined by Queensrÿche for a new Joint residency. The Scorpions trace their origins all the way back to the early 1970s, but their biggest hits came in the ’80s, with catchy, energetic songs like “Rock You Like a Hurricane,” “No One Like You” and “Big City Nights.” The German band’s most famous song is still the power ballad “Wind of Change,” the 1991 single that became an anthem for the fall of Communism. Singer Klaus Meine and guitarist Rudolf Schenker have anchored the band since its earliest days, and they are still creating new music, most recently with 2015 album Return to Forever. They’ll be joined by frequent tour-mates Queensrÿche, who also boast big ’80s and ’90s

hits (“Jet City Woman,” “Eyes of a Stranger,” “Silent Lucidity”), and are also still putting out new material (with 2015 album Condition Hüman). Both bands are worthy additions to the pantheon of Joint residents. –Josh Bell

Mischievous Acts Asked about the most outrageous moment from his show, hypnotist Anthony Cools pulls out his cell phone and shows a video of an older woman, about 65, kneeling in front of a chair and miming oral sex. That’s not what’s outrageous; convincing audience volunteers to perform sex acts with chairs is a staple of Cools’ show. What’s outrageous is what happens next: The woman calmly takes out her false teeth before returning to the task at hand. “The audience lost their minds,” Cools says. For Cools, hypnosis is all about entertaining.

The 28 glass-encased passenger pods are stark white spheres that fall somewhere between 2001: A Space Odyssey and an Apple Store in terms of their future-chic aesthetic. Your pod makes for a great vantage point, with near-seamless 360-degree visibility. Each pod holds up to 40 people comfortably and features multiple screens playing videos, music and informational programming. People have been married in and even held parties in the pods during special events, while celebrities from Olivia Newton-John to Justin Bieber have ridden in one. Even from afar, the High Roller is a delight, adding a playful ring of color to the Vegas skyline.

Good Impressions

Steamy Nights Women of all ages are being electrified by Australia’s Thunder From Down Under, where hunky Aussie fellows demonstrate their love of women when they perform 12 times a week. It’s like a bloke buffet when they reveal their washboard abs in a dynamic 70-minute show that combines dancing, state-of-the art lighting, costumes and G-strings. Yes, what would an adult male revue be without showing good-looking men with Adonis builds, twinkling eyes and sassy personalities? Thunderous things are hap-

pening when the seductive dancers show why they have been the No. 1 male revue for the past several years. The guys don’t take themselves too seriously and actually bring some of the happy-go-lucky Outback attitude to the production, so the show has a great interactive element. And the show is gaining attention internationally; in fact, the men just completed taping guest spots in two national shows. Whether watching the men from afar or getting up close and personal, it will be a thunderous experience. –Penny Levin

Taste the Good Life

For cigar smokers, the city offers impressive spaces Although cigar bars have long been a soughtafter destination, presently they’re enjoying a resurgence in popularity. Las Vegas has met the demand with the recent opening of two new cigar bars, adding to an already stellar offering of cigar bar hangouts. Puff away on the finest product Stripside at Davidoff of Geneva Cigar Bar, the first-ever cigar bar in the brand’s portfolio of boutique retail stores. The 1,500-square-foot indoor-outdoor space at Fashion Show offers visitors the chance to indulge their cigar cravings as well as order signature and specialty cocktails from the fullservice bar. Groups can lounge outdoors on the spacious 50-seat patio while taking in the sights of Las Vegas Boulevard. Take a tour through the

walk-in humidor and peruse hundreds of firstrate cigars. Also new to Las Vegas is Montecristo Cigar Bar at Caesars Palace. Divided into four areas for cigar-smoking pleasures, Montecristo also offers guests small bites, specialty cocktails and fine whiskeys. Take a seat at the Signature Bar or relax in The Library or The Courtyard, and for larger groups looking to splurge, reserve the 10-seat Vault Room. Inside this room, guests will enjoy a private dining and whiskey experience, as well as cigar pairings. Longtime hot spot Rhumbar at The Mirage offers some of the best specialty and signature cocktails in the city. The patio has also been a popular spot for both tourists and locals to enjoy

handcrafted rum cocktails, hookah and live DJ sets. And at Rhumbar, guests can choose from an impressive selection of cigars, most reasonably priced under $10, but here you’ll also find a few high-end, coveted brands, too. The always-packed Casa Fuente at the Forum Shops, a boutique and intimate cigar-bar space, celebrates its 10th anniversary this year. Guests can enjoy anniversary specials each month as well as the always-stocked Fuente and Ashton cigars in addition to other wellknown brands.

Trash Can Nachos

nosh cheers

Sometimes you just want to have fun during dinner—the food’s important, sure, but you also want that party atmosphere, the air of unpredictability where anything can—and might—happen. And for a perfect blend of both food and frivolity, you need to head straight for Guy Fieri’s El Burro Borracho at Rio, the latest Las Vegas outpost for the celebrity chef. From the second you enter Fieri’s Mexican eatery, you feel like smiling. Strategically placed sombreros and a large mural over the bar and kitchen painted by Fieri’s tattoo artist, Craig Frazier, and featuring all of Fieri’s tattoos, put you in a festive mood. Even the name of the restaurant— translated, it means “drunken donkey”—elicits the feeling that everyone’s welcome here. Fieri’s brand is everywhere, from the small souvenir area at the front of the room (featuring sauces, hats, T-shirts, books and maracas) to the menu. Make sure to start your experience with Guy’s Guacamole, which you can tailor to your individual needs. The more you add, the better it is. We recommend adding cucumber, shrimp and crab, but feel free to experiment with chorizo, roasted poblanos, pineapple and lobster. For a real “wow!” factor at your table to get heads turning, order some Trash Can Nachos, served in a metal pitcher with the bottom removed. The server slowly lifts the pitcher up, allowing the gooey concoction to ooze deliciously onto your plate. And there’s a tasty twist awaiting you: The whole thing is topped with onions pickled in port wine.

Caliente margarita

Nacho Average Dessert

Don’t miss out on the margaritas, served in imposing-looking glasses that almost require two hands to lift. Particularly notable are the Caliente margarita, which really brings its jalapeño heat to the forefront, and the pineapple-habanero margarita, which features a pleasant balance of sweetness and heat. With more than 30 tequilas on hand, you can have quite an adventure with the cocktail menu here. The classic Mexican staples get the true Fieri treatment. Piccadillo tacos are small but packed with flavor, a wonderful mix of Sonoran-style braised beef, green olives, raisins, brown sugar, shredded cabbage and tequila-lime crema. Whether you’re someone who has never tried mole

(or you have but perhaps didn’t care for it), the chicken mole enchiladas here will win you over. The mole, slightly sweet but never overpowering, is a great example of how the sauce should be prepared. A sizzling plate of shrimp and carne asada fajitas will have you fighting your tablemates over the last tortilla. Desserts are distinctive, particularly Nacho Average Dessert, featuring tortilla chips made with chocolate and vanilla and topped with ice cream and a spicy leche sauce. The coconut tres leches bread pudding is thick and soft, drizzled with coconut crème anglaise and toasted coconut. This is a restaurant where you’ll hear “Happy Birthday” sung multiple times during your meal, but even if it isn’t your birthday, trust us—you’ll feel like one of the party here.

JJ Buchanan

Director of beverage finds success in his hometown JJ Buchanan loves Las Vegas—it’s where he was born and raised, and it’s where he enjoys a successful career—today, Buchanan is the director of beverage for The Venetian and The Palazzo. “Vegas is just such a big part of who I am,” he said. It was in his hometown where he discovered a passion for the industry. His father, a longtime local and lawyer for more than three decades, opened a restaurant in 2007, “and working there got me interested in the business,” Buchanan explained. Although his dad thought he would follow in his footsteps and become a lawyer, “the restaurant was something that me and my dad shared together and I ended up loving the industry,” he said. After his father’s restaurant closed,

Buchanan decided to take a chance and make his mark on the Strip. He started in at an entry-level management position at The Venetian and Palazzo and over the past five years has worked his way up the ladder. “I’ve always liked leading people,” he said. “I think it’s one of my strengths. And my team is responsible for most of my success.” Buchanan’s main tasks are overseeing the beverage programs for both property’s pools, lounges, casino bars and the day club, Azure. Buchanan and his team work with suppliers, plan out menus, invent new cocktails and stay on top of beverage trends; he’s even a level-two certified cicerone. “It’s always exciting and fun. To work on the Strip, in my industry—it just doesn’t get any better.” –Kiko Miyasato

Buchanan is especially proud of the new cocktail menu offered this season at Azure. “We’re really proud of our pool club, and the cocktail menu we designed this season. It matches the ambience—the European feel of Azure. Fun, refreshing cocktails that everyone can enjoy.” One delicious selection from the menu is the Star of the Show. The cocktail—refreshing with a sweet and slightly spiced taste—mixes Patrón reposado tequila, Cinzano sweet vermouth, Fruitations grapefruit juice, fresh lime juice, orgeat syrup and San Pellegrino Limonata. It’s rimmed with crushed Aleppo peppers, salt and lime. –KM

No-Fuss Waves Get the hottest look around

Hair trends define whole generations, from the coiffed bouffant of the ’50s to the highly teased bangs of the ’80s. Now, in the mid2010s, hair has gone in a whole new direction. Tresses are all about undone, subtle waves, sometimes with a touch of texture and messiness. So how do you get “maybe I did my hair, maybe I didn’t” waves? When your locks are still wet, you can use a leave-in conditioner with heat protection to help combat the use of heat-styling products. Depending on your natural curl, you can let your hair air-dry or you can blow-dry your hair so it is smoother. Once hair is completely dry, use a large-barrel curling iron, taking large sections, directing away from the face in the front sections, and in the back you can switch it up once or twice to curl towards the face. Start your curl at the base of the hair, wrapping until you can leave the last inch or so out of the iron. You want most of your curl to live in the mid-shaft of your hair. Finish with some texture near the root of the hair. Texture is easily added in with a sea spray or other type of texturizing product, which comes in many forms—sprays, creams and even powders. A quick spritz of a light hairspray will give your style some staying power, and then you are ready to take on your day with your beautiful, effortless-looking strands! –Sarah Redzikowski R+Co Outer Space flexible hairspray ($29), randco.com Sexy Hair texturizing spray clay ($18.95), Ulta Beauty at Downtown Summerlin t3 Twirl 360 motion-sensing, auto-rotating 1.25-inch curling iron ($230), Sephora at Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood Resort Marula Daily Moisture Mist leave-in conditioning heat protector ($32), Sephora at The Venetian

Country stars Reba, Brooks & Dunn back again for Together in Vegas Photo by Credit


Caesars Palace 7:30 p.m. May 10 & 13-14, $59.50-$205 plus tax and fee. 888.929.7849

Until them, all of the resident performers at the Caesars Palace Colosseum had been solo artists: Celine Dion, Cher, Bette Midler, Rod Stewart, Elton John, Shania Twain, Mariah Carey. But last year, country legends Reba McEntire and Brooks & Dunn, teamed up for an evening of hits from their respective careers. This year, McEntire and Brooks & Dunn will reprise Together in Vegas, where they perform both separately and together, showcasing their talents as individual artists and also creating an opportunity for fans to see them collaborating onstage. The three artists have a history of collaboration that goes back to 1992, when Brooks & Dunn opened for McEntire on tour. They co-headlined dates from 1997 to 1999, and they’ve had two joint hits on the country charts with “If You See Him/If You See Her” and “Cowgirls Don’t Cry.” Although Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn dissolved their 20-year musical partnership in 2010, the prospect of a Vegas show with McEntire enticed them to reunite. “Ronnie’s the quiet one. Kix is the loud one,” McEntire told Rolling Stone about her collaborators. “They are both so witty, so funny, and they both tell great stories.” Performing in the same city and at the same venue each night also allows McEntire and Brooks & Dunn to focus entirely on playing music without the stresses that go along with a tour. “Consistency is something you’re not getting to have very much of when you’re on tour, so this is neat,” McEntire told Rolling Stone. Over the course of 20 years as a duo, Brooks & Dunn scored 20 number one singles on the Billboard country charts, and McEntire has achieved twice that many during her nearly 40-year recording career. “My Maria” and “Fancy” were on the setlist in 2015, as were the artists’ two hit duets. For McEntire, her hits range from “(You Lift Me) Up to Heaven,” her first top 10 single from 1980, through songs like “Little Rock,” “The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter” and recent top 40 country single “Going Out Like That.” In 2008, she released 50 Greatest Hits, a compilation with a staggering 46 songs that made it into the top 10 of Billboard’s country charts. So whatever hits they end up including this year, McEntire and Brooks & Dunn should have no trouble matching up to the enormous success of last year.

dressing rooms and the darkness of the wings. “A lot of people have these long, drawn-out rituals,” says The Mirage’s Terry Fator. “I was sitting in the dressing room with Jerry Lewis right before my show and he started getting agitated ... He said, ‘You have a show!’ He told me he has an hour-long ritual, standing in front of a mirror.”

ntertainers commonly pray, stretch, shun carbloaded pig-outs and frequent the Porcelain Throne. Some indulge more colorful quirks to keep their equilibrium,

well, equalized. “There’s a thousand things I have to turn on before it’s right,” says perpetual-motion prop comic Carrot Top, aka Scott Thompson, about his Luxor digs, a marvel of mood-setting madness. “There’s 30 lights and lava lamps. I light candles and incense and put on music, and every night the selection of music is different. Some nights it’s rock ’n’ roll, some it’s country, Pet Shop Boys—it depends on my mood. Then I do a double shot of espresso to get my energy. Then I go upstairs to the stage to go over everything. Then I do one shot of Crown Royal with my opening act. It relaxes me and opens up my vocal cords and warms me up.” Who doesn’t do a shot or six of Crown Royal before work? While Thompson’s routine is atmospheric and a touch boozy, it’s deeply personal next door at Excalibur’s Tournament of Kings, where Antonio Restivo literally brings the heat portraying Mordred, the evil fire wizard in the medieval, sword-and-sorcerer spectacle. “I wear a pendant around my neck that has my father’s ashes,” Restivo says, pausing as emotion overtakes him. “He passed away just before I started working at Tournament of Kings. Of all the things my father had seen me do, this would have been his favorite.” Co-star Shayla Rodriguez, who plays a maiden, practices “pop” psychology. “If I Sarah Emick, can get both of the arches of my feet to Natalie Gallo pop or my sternum on my chest to pop, & Nikka Wahl I really believe I’ll have a more balanced of Jersey Boys show,” she says. Youch! Hey, whatever works for kickin’ out the kinks. Before curtain up at Jersey Boys at Paris Las Vegas, Nikka Wahl—who plays Francine, Frankie Valli’s daughter—revs up to show readiness with a “female power circle” including other female cast members and sometimes women in the crew. “We are in our places, we make this really big circle as we hold hands and the show opens with BomBom-Bom-BOM-BOM,” she says, mimicking the “(December, 1963) Oh, What A Night” opening beats.

Antonio

“It bonds us. Sometimes we’ll throw Restivo of Tournament of some of the guys in the show in the Kings middle to give them our female power.” Female submission is the mojo of 50 Shades! The Parody, the Bally’s mocku-musical satirizing BDSM-obsessed Fifty Shades of Grey. Maren Wade, who portrays Anastasia, the young lady schooled in ouch!-inducing lovemaking, is amused by her backstage prop rundown. “In another show, it might be, ‘My costume is here, my shoes are here, my wig is here,’” Wade says. “But in 50 Shades! it’s, ‘OK, my handcuffs are here, my (uh, artificial genitalia) is here, we’ve got the (um, male release) ribbons here, the S&M masks are here, the collar here, the choker there, and the harness.’ The prop list is very funny.” And sexy—though not any sexier than at Sexxy. “I have to touch my pole,” says Jennifer Romas, star/creator/choreographer of the Westgate Las Vegas adult revue, who executes a sultry pole dance. “I clean it with rubbing alcohol and make sure it’s safe and secure. Even


if my tech guys clean it, I have to climb on it or touch it or grip it before I perform on it.” Don’t discount the preshow powers of a good joystick, either, as video games are the path to showtime Zen for Fator. “I have a video game setup in my dressing room, although my wife didn’t understand it when we first got together,” says Fator with a chortle. Once a Wii bowling devotee early in his run, he’s advanced to tougher preshow challenges. “I’ll use my Sony PSP or my Nintendo. Now I play Destiny (an online, first-person shooter game). It’s a reset for my mind—now I’m ready to rock.” Think he’s alone? BZZZT!—a video game demerit for you. “We’re first-generation gamers, so we do our gaming thing,” says Shawn Stockman, who contributes his creamy vocals as one-third of R&B seducers Boyz II Men, Fator’s showroom bunkmates. “Now it’s Star Wars: Battlefront—like Call of Duty but in the land of Endor. It occupies your brain, gets you normal before the show.” Preferring a psychic soother of another sort is pop icon Olivia Newton-John, who loyally eyeballs one TV show before stepping onstage at the Flamingo. “We love to watch Say Yes to the Dress,” says the Aussie songbird about TLC’s bridal-salon reality series. “It’s so sweet and funny and innocuous, there’s no drama.” Not Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars? How … refreshing. Let’s talk food. And whether to eat it—literally a matter of stayin’ alive. “Singing is a lot of lung movement, and the more that’s in your stomach, the harder that is, and some foods come back up on you, so you’d feel like you want to burp and belch,” says Michael Clift, aka Barry Gibb in Excalibur’s The Australian Bee Gees Show: A Tribute to the Bee Gees. Adds Wayne Hosking (he’s Maurice): “Avoiding food is important. You don’t want to be spitting things at the audience.” Speaking on behalf of the audience: Thanks. As for Robin, the other Brother Gibb—aka David Scott—the menu is limited. And a little strange. “I have a fast metabolism, James Davis so before the show, I’ll have a banana while putting on makeup of Chippendales because that digests pretty easily but gives you energy,” he says. “And coffee, because the caffeine rush is good.” Coffee and a banana? Hmmm. Also, factor your stage foundation into your culinary calculation. “Dancing in the dirt is exceptionally hard as opposed to dancing on a stage,” says Rodriguez of Tournament of Kings, who circles a brown dirt

arena. “That extra weight of having a meal after 3:30, it makes you jump a little lower. But I’m guilty of eating an In-N-Out burger early in the day.” Now that’s more like it. Settling for a light nosh is Fator’s preference. “I’ll have my assistant get me those 200-calorie peanut butter crackers. I’ll eat them about 20 minutes before a show for energy.” Doesn’t peanut butter cling to the roof of a dummy’s mouth? Shawn Our favorite of their food fetishes: Stockman of Boyz II Men candy cravings. Especially if they add even a trace of average-guy fat on Adonis bods. “I eat jelly beans” says aerialist Julian Aldag, who performs to “Stranger in Moscow’ in the “Beggar Boy” segment of Michael Jackson ONE at Mandalay Bay. “I swear it makes a difference. I eat three before a performance and it gives me enough of a sugar rush going through the bloodstream.” Others relish their own sneak-a-snack moments. “It’s always good if you need that lift to have a little hard candy around, so I do the Mike and Ike candies,” says James Davis, a Chippendales The Show stud in the same candy mind-set as Sexxy siren Romas. “I eat almost no sugar at all, but I’ll have five almonds or 10 Skittles before showtime and pop ’em really quick,” Romas says. “It’s a sugar rush thing. That’s my quota.” Then there’s really rigid adherence to routine. “I get ready in the exact same order when the half-hour call comes,” says Rob Lyons, who rocks on as Million Dollar Quartet’s Carl Perkins at Harrah’s. “I do things down to a 15-second window. Putting on my shoes at exactly the

same time. I haven’t been diagnosed with OCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder), but there’s an OCD behavior I exhibit.” Worrying about clothing seems anathema at Chippendales at Rio, but … not so. Ask Davis, who straps on kneepads for 50-foot slides across the stage. “It messes up the whole opening of the show if all the buckles aren’t clamped,” he says. “If one is out it drives me absolutely insane, I go nuts. The whole time you’re doing your choreography, you’re thinking about it.” Most common of backstage commonalities? Prayin’ to The Man Upstairs. Newton-John does it with her band. Tournament ladies, including Rodriguez, engage in “sing-along chants.” Some prayers address humility. Jennifer Romas “Praying keeps you humble,” says Steven Arlen, who does of Sexxy double duty as Merlin and King Arthur in Tournament. “You’ve been doing a show for so long and think, ‘Why am I here, I’d rather be home,?’” he says. “You have to stop and say, ‘I get to perform right now, I’m not in a cubicle, I’m so grateful for this.’” Before an evening of gyrations, veteran Thunder From Down Under at Excalibur gyrator Matthew Fardell emphasizes his devotion by repeating a simple phrase. “I say out loud, ‘I love my audience,’” Fardell says. Davis of Chippendales has a more meditative goal. “I’m always very still before a show,” he says. “Since I was a kid, I’ve had bad anxiety. I focus on breathing, which really helps your body relax.” Over at 50 Shades! The Parody, it’s half-prayer/half-cheerleading. “Before we all go on, we say, ‘Let’s go change lives tonight!’” Wade says. “On one hand, we’re playfully joking because our show is a parody. But it’s a really funny show and the best form of therapy is that people want to forget everything and enjoy a show in the moment.” Prayer is spiritual and otherworldly. Other rituals are earthier. “I’ve heard some guys gotta have sex right before they go on, they gotta get some— none of my guys, for the record,” says Stockman, safeguarding the images of his Boyz. “And one strange thing that’s been happening with me for 20 years is that every time we pray, I (need to) go to the bathroom—‘Amen!’ and then I gotta pee. It’s the weirdest thing.” Quirky, but not weird. Relax. Have a chocolate-covered grasshopper.

Versatile Comedic Style What’s funny about a comedian writing an autobiography (aside from the obvious) is what’s unearthed during his or her research. Brad Garrett, who operates Brad Garrett’s Comedy Club (MGM Grand, 800.745.3000 Ticketmaster), unearthed plenty while writing 2015’s When the Balls Drop. In the book, Garrett recalls being asked to perform an

impression of Jimmie “J.J.” Walker. “I went to a makeup place, this tall kid from the Bronx, and asked, ‘Can you make me look like Sidney Poitier?’” Garrett says. “I was not trying to make it like a minstrel show, but just to add to the character. … How it was that nobody in my house stopped me from going out in that makeup is still a mystery to me.”

From his days on Everybody Loves Raymond to his killer lineup of comedians at the comedy club, Garrett is still making people laugh. He shares more of his hysterical tales at his namesake comedy club with Michael Pace and Kermit Apio May 9-15, but first up, John Dicrosta and Kathleen Dunbar headline through through May 8. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff

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.

Who-What-Where The stars came out for the Wine & Spirits Wholesalers of America expo at Caesars Palace. Channing Tatum launched his Born & Bred vodka, and Christie Brinkley launched her Bellissima line of organic Italian

sparkling wines and prosecco. Ryan Phillippe and his fiancé Paulina Slagter were spotted at Lavo Italian Restaurant in The Palazzo. Eva Longoria dined with her family at Wolfgang Puck’s Spago in The Forum

Shops at Caesars. Fifth Harmony’s Ally Brooke Hernandez was spotted at Tao Asian Bistro at The Venetian. Flo Rida dined at Red Square in Mandalay Bay. Country singer Kacey Musgraves enjoyed a ride on The High Roller at The Linq.

Back doesn’t stop Moreno Only 48 hours before his dream of performing at center Strip came true, singer-musician Frankie Moreno threw out his back with a pulled disc. He was in pain, barely able to move, and it looked as if his premiere of Under the Influence at Planet Hollywood would have to be postponed. Producers rushed a chiropractor from Absinthe at Caesars Palace as Moreno swallowed “a supply of purple Good & Plentys.” He was strapped into a back brace and prepared for curtain up. Despite the occasional wince, Moreno managed to clamber, then slither around on a rotating, twisting hydraulic piano for the finale after the 90-minute show to perform his signature upside-down backward moves at the keyboard.

Lance Burton’s first foray into filmmaking has been recognized for his self-financed Billy Topit: Master Magician, shot entirely in Las Vegas. The movie has been honored as an official selection in the Wild Rose Independent Film Festival from May 12-19 in Des Moines, Iowa. Burton’s festival premiere is the closing-night film. Burton is flying there for the festival and conducting a Q&A post-screening. Nightclub owner and entrpreneur Victor Drai married Yolanda Krupiarz on the rooftop Drai’s Beach Club and Nightclub at the Cromwell. Among the guests: Steve Wynn with his wife, Andrea, and his former wife, Elaine Wynn. Also attending: recording giant Quincy Jones, boxing baron Bob Arum, hip-hop artists Trey Songz, Chris Brown and Jeremih and DJ par excellence Franzen. Britney Spears oversaw a wedding proposal after her show at Axis at Planet Hollywood Resort recently. It took the young man 18 months to win permission to propose marriage in front of Spears. The woman started shaking, then crying, then smiling, and her beau had to propose a second time as Spears began laughing. She said yes, and the engagement ring was slipped on her finger.
