Siegfried and Roy Show Postage Stamp to Save Vanishing Species

Gay Las Vegas Travel — Tue, 10 Apr 2012 14:58:14 GMT

Siegfried Fischbacher and Roy Horn introduce the "Save Vanishing Species" U.S. postage stamp at Siegfried & Roy's Secret Garden & Dolphin Habitat at the Mirage on Monday, April 9, 2012. Proceeds from the stamp will benefit the Multinational Species Conservation Funds, which are dedicated to saving some of the world's fastest disappearing animals in their natural habitats.

Photo: Steve Marcus

For nearly 30 years, Siegfried & Roy have been dedicated to preserving white tigers around the world. Once nearly extinct, white tigers are relatively plentiful today, with more than 200 in existence globally. Having embarked on their crusade to save the species in 1983, S&R authorized the use of one of their big cats, Svengali (actually a heterozygous golden tiger), to be used as the subject of the stamp.

SkyVue to be Largest Observation Wheel in the Western Hemisphere

Gay Las Vegas Travel — Fri, 02 Mar 2012 01:47:19 GMT

Las Vegas size queens rejoice!

SkyVue, slated to become the largest observation wheel in the Western Hemisphere, set its foundation today with a convoy of more than 100 trucks filling approximately 1,300 cubic yards of concrete. Destined to become an iconic addition to Las Vegas, SkyVue will offer an unrivaled experience for both visitors and residents when it opens July 4, 2013.

Located directly across from Mandalay Bay, the wheel will tower 500 feet above the famed Las Vegas Strip and feature 32, 24-person gondolas and two HD LED Multi Media displays at the center of the wheel, each measuring 50,000 square feet. Sizing up to the length of two football fields, the distinctive signs will be the world’s largest displays offering spectacular visuals for the Strip’s three-mile stretch and beyond.

The climate-controlled gondolas will offer breathtaking views of the city skyline with each ride completing in 30 minutes. Guests will have the opportunity to rent out a gondola for private events, weddings, and more, complete with catering services. In addition, the project will offer more than 200,000 square feet of retail space and an additional 20,000 square feet for conventions.

The project will bring more than 700 construction jobs to the community in addition to an estimated 500 full-time positions for the entertainment, dining and retail offerings once the development opens.

Another Chippendales Dancer Comes OUT - Jaymes Vaughan

Gay Las Vegas Travel — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 15:43:37 GMT

Jaymes Vaughan, a singer and dancer with the infamous Chippendales male revue recently came out in the pages of QVegas magazine. Making him the 2nd out gay dancer from the show.

What?!? Chippendales gay! and have singers?
Of course they do - these are your Mother's Chippendales!

Most of you don't remember the original Chippendales. In 1979 Chippendales was the first all-male stripping troupe to make a business performing for mostly female audiences. Through the quality of its staging and choreography, Chippendales also helped legitimize stripping as a form of popular entertainment.

Now, they live on in Las Vegas. The Chippendales perform in a ten-million dollar theater and lounge built specifically for them at the Rio All Suite Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. Annually, the official men of Chippendales are seen by almost two million people worldwide. Men ARE ALLOWED into see the show these days.

Back to Jaymes, who does double duty at Rio.

“My nights start at 6:00pm and I don’t stop until 12:30am. I start Show In The Sky, run up to Chippendales in time for my first song, run back to Show In The Sky for my next number there, and so it goes each night. There is a four minute break where I run to Burger King, they give me my chicken sandwich and I run back in time to sing my next song.” Vaughan has also released a new single, “Vampire,” and recorded the accompanying music video. He says he’s always loved the Dracula types, even as a kid, but that the song is really “about being in a situation where you can’t be yourself; where you can’t live a part of your life in the daylight; being in a relationship that I can’t share with my family. “

BITE ME!
WATCH THE VIDEO on his site.

Coming out wasn’t like facing the harsh light of day: Vaughan was already out to his family and friends—and even hosted Las Vegas Pride in 2011. This is more a case of coming out publicly as one of the few openly gay entertainers on the Strip.

"I hope to be able to take advantage of a platform so that my fourteen-year-old self that was sitting in Chesterfield County, Virginia, might find some hope. The fourteen year old that had no one to look up to; whose mama told him he better not be gay; whose church told him he was going to hell; whose best friend killed himself because he didn’t “fit in.” Because he didn’t have any hope. I thought for so long you had to cover up who you were to be successful. I’ve realized you can be more successful by being yourself.

IN 2008- Instinct magazine's annual swim suit issue cover features Chippendales' first openly gay dancer, Brandon Pereyda, talked about how most Chippendales guys are mistakenly pegged as being gay.

"I guess it is monumental for this company," Pereyda notes. "Chippendales guys are often pegged as being gay. And they're not. And I think this will clear the slate."

He continues, "They're all straight, but we would do anything for each other and that's what I really love about working here. They don't view my be gay as a negative thing at all."

On a sidenote - Chippendales in Vegas has already reached out to muscle hottie Kris Humphries, hoping to fill their empty celebrity MC spot at the Rio -- previously occupied by ex-98 Degrees singer Jeff Timmons.

Burt Wonderstone Filming This Week in Las Vegas

Gay Las Vegas Travel — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 16:06:45 GMT

Isn't it funny how times change?! Years ago, rarely was a film shot in Las Vegas, and if it was, gobs of restrictions were in place as to what could be shot and what could not, especially in the casinos.

It used to be, a tourist could get in trouble for taking a photo inside the casino gaming area - I don't think that is true anymore.

Same is true for concerts. From 1980-2005, no show anywhere, would allow cameras in. Today, most shows welcome cameras! Because they know everyone is going to broadcast their crappy footage and photos on Social Media, thereby promoting said show! (Cirque du Soleil usually DOES NOT welcome cameras).

So this week around 400 extras have been hired to appear as Strip pedestrians, tourists and casino workers. Trailers line the streets and filming is well underway for the new Steve Carroll movie, Burt Wonderstone.

While NOT based on Siegfried and Roy, with his flowing blonde hair, plunging maroon velvet jumpsuit and gold medallions, Steve Carell looked every inch a Las Vegas show magician as he shot scenes for his movie yesterday.

The 49-year-old actor was worlds away from his usual appearance as he filmed scenes for highly-anticipated comedy alongside Steve Buscemi and Olivia Wilde.

The movie tells the story of Vegas illusionist Wonderstone who reunites with his former magic partner Anton Lovecraft (Buscemi) as he decides to take on a rival street magician Steve Haines, played by Jim Carrey.

While the reunion of Carell and Carrey, who previously starred together in 2003 movie Bruce Almighty, is being looked forward to by millions of fans of the comedy giants, the film has not been without problems.

It has undergone several rewrites, and looked in trouble when, just two months after appointing Charles McDougall as director, he left the project with no reason being cited for the departure in April last year.

However, things picked up when Don Scardino signed on to direct the comedy, slated for release in 2013.

They are filming on location until Friday, and among the locations on the itinerary are interiors and exteriors at Bally's, plus outside on the Strip and Downtown.

Model Jack Mackenroth 2012 Calendar for Charity

Gay Lesbian LGBT Travel — Tue, 06 Dec 2011 20:59:50 GMT

OK, so this has nothing to do with Las Vegas! BUT, it is a very important cause, close to my heart and I wanted to share it with you.

EVERYONE needs a calendar, right? And they make great gifts! And who doesn't want hottie, model and activist, half naked Jack Mackenroth hanging on their wall?

This AUTOGRAPHED, high-quality, glossy, 15-month calendar is available for sale now!

The calendar begins in January 2012 and continues through May 2013. Each month features a different photographer with a very different style.

Photographers taking part int the project include Adam Bouska (NOH8), Rick Day, Carsten Fleck, Frank Louis, James Franklin, Karl Giant, Tommy Synnamon, Mattheus Lian, Richard Gerst, Ray John Pila, Sonny Tong, Thomas Evans, Krys Fox and Preston Cros with over 17 amazing images in total.

The calendar’s dimensions are 8.5 x 11 inches, and are available online for $14.95 (plus tax and shipping). Please allow 2 weeks for shipping as Jack is signing and shipping them all personally. Please be patient.

100-percent of the proceeds from the calendar will go directly to amfAR, The American Foundation for AIDS Research (www.amfar.org) to help find a cure for AIDS.

Mackenroth has been living with the disease for 22 years. As the first television personality since Pedro Zamora to be vocal about his HIV status, Jack Mackenroth has quickly become the most visible, out HIV+ advocate and educator in the country… if not the world. With the release of his 2012 calendar, he hopes to raise both money and awareness for AIDS research, and to show through his photographs that a person living with HIV can be in top physical form, healthy and sexy.

Caesars Octavius Tower Moves Full Speed Ahead

Gay Las Vegas Travel — Sun, 27 Nov 2011 20:29:00 GMT

It's funny, in 2008-2009, many projects were put on hold or canceled in Las Vegas. Or at least it appeared that way. Some projects inched their way forward anyways, despite the economy!

CityCenter, which includes Vdara, ARIA and Mandarin Oriental, slowed down a bit in 2009-2010, but still moved forward.

Cosmopolitan opened.
M Resort opened.
Rumor Boutique Hotel opened.

And Caesars have announced that come January, they will be hiring 450+ people.

They began taking reservations for their new 600+ room tower a couple months back.

The Octavius Tower, named after the given name of the Emperor Caesar Augustus, keeps with the Roman theme with elegant, austere marble floors made warm and inviting by extensive traditionally patterned carpets.

Completion of the addition to Caesars was put on hold more than a year ago as the company waited for
what it imagined would be the right time to make more rooms available.

The exterior and lower level public areas were completed so that most people would never know there was
nothing happening on the upper levels.

Gay Lane Twins Bring Hollywood to Dollywood film in Las Vegas Nov. 18

Gay Las Vegas Travel — Mon, 31 Oct 2011 13:59:34 GMT

IT ALL STARTED WITH A DREAM....
AND AN RV NAMED JOLENE.

Everybody has a dream. Most of us are only willing to go so far to see it materialize and often find ourselves waiting for the right opportunity to come to us. Not so for the Lane twins -they were not content to send their screenplay Full Circle to Dolly Parton’s manager or publicist. No, they were determined to get it into the hands of their idol and on the 25th Anniversary of Dollywood, no less.

"WE grew up listening to Dolly's music and always thought she was an amazing person. So why not write a screenplay about her, and go on a cross country roadtrip to try to put it in her hands! "       say the Lane Twins, Gary and Larry.

And that's just what they did.

And the result is An amazing film and journey   about courage and acceptance.

Now in 51 Film Festivals Around the World  ...They won 6 Awards so far!

"Dolly Parton herself Is 100% behind Our Movie and Gave us 15 Of Her Songs Free For the Documentary and Her Image for the Movie Poster!"

Dolly has long had legions of gay fans, I think her most public pro-gay remarks were made last year when she appeared on Larry King Live.

"It made us love her all the more and we actually approached CNN and paid for the copyright and we have that footage in the movie. We got the full clearance.

It’s Dolly’s message that she loves her fans and she doesn’t judge anybody. She says only God is supposed to judge you, we’re not supposed to judge each other. A lot of people who have seen it have said, ‘I never really knew her views but it made me love her even more.’

Kris Humphries Cancels Las Vegas Party at Paris

Gay Las Vegas Travel — Sun, 30 Oct 2011 14:20:00 GMT

Kris Humphries has canceled an upcoming appearance at a Las Vegas nightclub event after wife Kim Kardashian filed for divorce.

A representative for Nets power forward Humphries, 26, said he would not attend an event scheduled for Saturday at the Chateau Nightclub & Gardens in the Paris Hotel and Casino, according to Access Hollywood.

Kardashian, 31, filed divorce papers Monday in California after only 72 days of marriage, citing "irreconcilable differences." She also asked that she not have to pay alimony to Humphries.

"I love my wife and am devastated to learn she filed for divorce," Humphries said in a statement Monday after the news broke. "I'm committed to this marriage and everything this covenant represents and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to make it work."

The website the Chateau Nightclub & Gardens was still listing Humphries as the host of the event Tuesday afternoon.

Kardashian's sister Kourtney and her boyfriend, Scott Disick, are scheduled to host a New Year's Eve event at the club.

Hmmmm....so one wonders if Kardashian squashed the deal perhaps??

The couples assets will be divided in accordance with their prenup. According to Us Weekly, the prenup protects all of Kardashian's assets prior to the marriage (the Kardashians pulled in $65 million last year alone), and she will also keep everything she earned during their short union.

By contrast, Humpries -- who is currently unemployed due to the NBA lockout -- reportedly makes around $3.2 million a year.

WILL KIM RETURN HER $2 MILLION RING?????

Siegfried and Roy Honored Oct. 15th

Gay Las Vegas Travel — Wed, 26 Oct 2011 21:03:16 GMT

Retired Ilusionists Siegfried & Roy were honored at the 14th annual Foundation for an Independent Tomorrow carnival and gala at Caesars Palace.

Celine Dion, Maria Shriver and Terry Fator were joined by MGM chief Jim Murren, hotel mogul Steve Wynn, Southern Wine and Spirits head honcho Larry Ruvo and MGM executives Bobby Baldwin and Felix Rappaport for a video salute to the longtime Las Vegas headliners and residents.

Elton John Back in Las Vegas Next Week - Not Selling Out

Gay Las Vegas Travel — Fri, 23 Sep 2011 21:35:09 GMT

ELTON JOHN
IS BACK in LAS VEGAS....

NOT to be confused with "The Red Piano," the 242 exclusive-to-Caesars shows did from 2003 to 2009....

He is back now with "The Million Dollar Piano". - The show's name comes from the custom instrument that Yamaha is building.

Britain's top piano man signed on for another round of concerts in Vegas back in the Spring, and the first show is happening next week. At Caesars, of course. But will he sell out? Is the demand still there?

"The show will be a gargantuan feast of music and imagery," John said in a statement released by Caesars.

When I checked today, there were still tickets available online for opening week.
At $250 a pop - I will wait for the DVD....These live shows are getting ridiculous.

Uncorked 2011 ...A Foodie Lovers Paradise in Las Vegas

Maybe you remember or read about, back in the "good old days", Las Vegas buffets were cheap, cheap, cheap. $1.99 breakfast buffets at the Tropicana. Lunch was $2.49 and dinner $2.99. If you joined the slot club, you got a two-for-one coupon to boot.

You could get a room for $49! HA! Those days are long gone!

I think during the eighties, Siegfried and Roy were among the first to start changing the face of Las Vegas. Steve Wynn and Mirage raised the bar and the years that followed, Las Vegas saw less polyester and blue hair, and more of a younger hip, chic and Dolce &Gabbana crowd!

In 1992 The Forum Shops at Caesars opened; it was one of the first venues in the city where shopping, particularly at high-end fashion house stores, was an attraction in itself.

5 star restaurants opened left and right and Las Vegas has now positioned itself as one of the most exciting and entertaining culinary destinations in the world.
