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.

NOTES

UPCOMING Come back soon!

From the Editor They’re the tops

Steve Martin’s 1977 album Let’s Get Small remains one of my favorite comedy albums of all time. Particularly enjoyable is his impersonation of a Las Vegas entertainer who has only a small amount of time to get all his material in, leading to a “speed reading” version of a comedy/singing act. But Martin had another Vegas joke that always stuck with me. Sadly, I must paraphrase, but it’s his description of a big show, where he looks at the spectacle and says, “Wow, look at the breasts! I’ll bet there’s … 57 breasts up there!” (Yes, do the math. We’ll wait.) Laughs aside, Martin had a point: The topless show is one of the foundations on which Las Vegas was built. The Strip’s longest-running production in history, Les Folies Bergere, began exposing the female form in 1959 and did so for almost 50 years before closing in 2009. Its success ushered in a whole set of similar acts, some of them fleeting, others lasting for decades. Fantasy at Luxor, now in its 16th year, put a spin on the formula that few saw coming. Yes, it features a bountiful amount of skin, but it’s also a stellar talent show. The women of Fantasy bust some serious dance moves, comedian Sean E. Cooper offers hilarious “half-time” entertainment through both audience interaction and a killer Michael Jackson impersonation, and singer Jaime Lynch could easily have her own show. Steve Martin might have been focusing only on the breasts, but if he was at Fantasy, he probably missed a fantastic show in the process.

Susan Anton

’70s icon’s well-rounded career continues to evolve Susan Anton parlayed winning the Miss California pageant into a career that took her to the heights of pop culture stardom and the stages of Las Vegas in the ’70s. Her singing voice led her to Broadway, but she kept coming back to Vegas and eventually made her home here. Her solo debut on Jan 8-9 at The Smith Center for the Performing Arts’ Cabaret Jazz is an artistic homecoming that could easily turn into frequent staycations. She spoke to Las Vegas Magazine’s Matt Kelemen recently. Is Already Home an existing show that you’ve been doing for a while? It’s a show that I put together several years ago with my L.A.based band. These guys have been with me for, like, 35 years, and we played the Cinegrill over at the Roosevelt Hotel after we hadn’t been able to do a show for a really long time because I’ve been doing a lot of Broadway. So I got the band back together, and we decided to do a show that was comprised of all the songs we really cared about, that influenced us or affected our lives, or told a life story in a sense. When was the last time you were onstage in Vegas? It’s been a long time. I had a lot of fun three years ago when Clint Holmes, Domenick Allen, Martin Nievera and I did several shows in a group called Vocal Soup. We performed at the Suncoast and The Orleans, and I would say that’s probably the last time I was onstage, other than benefits and things like that, in Las Vegas. It sounds like The Smith Center is a more venue-appropriate setting for your shows. Absolutely. That Cabaret Jazz room is one of the true gems I think that we have now in Las Vegas. It’s such a gift to

entertainers, where it’s not about filling Cirque du Soleil-sized venues. For me personally, it’s a throwback to what I originally loved about Las Vegas. When I was a young entertainer in the first shows that I saw, they were, like, in the Copa Room with Sammy Davis Jr. and Mel Torme. They were intimate rooms, and the talent was right there next to the audience. I think Cabaret Jazz evokes that time. How autobiographical is Already Home? It’s not autobiographical like, “I was this old, this song came along and this song had an impact on me.” It’s more the songs that are in the show are there because they evoke a memory or something that was going on in our world. … Recently, when we did the show we went from Bruce Springsteen’s “You’re Missing” to the classic “Why Can’t We Live Together.” The music that influenced me growing up was all from the ’60s. That was a time when music was really the voice of the people. Everything has a message and a meaning, and some of it’s just thrown in because it’s fun. That’s why I call it Already Home. It’s like Dorothy. You get out, you travel the world, you really want to get out and see everything. And you really realize your life evolves …

What kind of material will you be doing? I saw songs by John Mayer and Mark Cohen in previous sets. John Mayer—we’ll definitely be doing that song. He has a great song called “Stop This Train” off of his Continuum album. That’s in there because it is about slowing

down time. Like, you get how fast life goes, and he just says it so poetically and it’s such a beautiful message. Mark Cohen— he has the title song of the show, “Already Home.” We have Beth Nielson Chapman, John Lennon, the Beatles ... It’s a real eclectic group.

Simply Tradition

If you need a pick-me-up, stop in for afternoon tea at Rí Rá in The Shoppes at Mandalay Place. Although the pub’s known primarily for hearty Irish meals and a great beer selection, the 19th-century Irish decor lends itself to the enjoyment of classic afternoon tea, with finger sandwiches, fruit scones with clotted cream and preserves, mini desserts and a pot of tea, of course! The pub serves several types of leaf teas, from Darjeeling to herbal tea. Tea for two is $22 per person, available from 11 a.m.-2 p.m. daily. And if you’d like a smaller portion, try a scone with tea for $8. Call 702.632.7771 for more information.

Elevated Dining

Seasons are always changing, and so is the menu at Top of the World at Stratosphere. The fine-dining restaurant with 360-degree views of the Strip and Las Vegas Valley recently introduced a seasonal menu featuring both three- and four-course options, priced at $49 and $98. Executive chef Rick Giffen’s additions include Kurobuta pork belly seasoned with Chinese spices and served with quinoa and root vegetables, surf and turf, creamy lobster bisque and dark chocolate pot de creme. To reserve a spot, call 702.380.7711 or topoftheworldlv.com.

McCarran International Airport in Las Vegas was America’s 28th busiest airport in passenger traffic in 2015. No. 1 was the HartsfieldJackson Atlanta International Airport. A popular cocktail in Las Vegas during the atomic testing of the 1950s was the Atomic Cocktail. To make it, combine a jigger each of brandy, vodka and champagne, plus a dash of sherry. Even though gaming is legal in Nevada, the lottery is not. If you really want to purchase tickets while you’re here, head to Primm— you can purchase them just beyond the state line with California.

A New You

Las Vegas offers plenty of spa treatments to start 2016 right The calendar has flipped to 2016, so celebrate a new you. Spas around the city offer treatments to get your mind and body on a path to rejuvenation. At Canyon Ranch SpaClub at The Venetian and The Palazzo (877.220.2688), the uniquely groovy 50-minute Canyon Ranch Energy Renewal will get body and mind aligned. Decide what in particular the intention of your treatment will focus on—relationships, stress, work, improving relaxation—and the therapist will align your chakras, balance and ground your spirit so the results will restore mind, body and soul. If you’re seeking to detox from hard partying at the end of 2015, head to Hard Rock Hotel’s Reliquary Spa (702.693.5520) for its Rehab body therapy. The intense treatment rids the body of impurities, leaving mind, body and soul refreshed and renewed. Look younger and get a healthy glow for the new year with the Swift Lift Anti-Aging Facial at The Spa at The Linq (702.794.3242). After facial analyses, enjoy a deep cleaning and natural fruit acid exfoliation peel that helps diminish fine lines and wrinkles, leaving your face toned and smoothed and glowing younger. At Spa Mandalay at Mandalay Bay (877.632.7300) enjoy winter specials that incorporate the scents of the season into massage, facial and pedicure. Relax those aching muscles, get radiant skin and dress up those toes with the Snowcapped Mountain massage, Frosted Cranberry facial and Hot Toddy pedicure. –Kiko Miyasato

Heavy Metal Royals Musically, Seattle is still best known as the epicenter of the ’90s grunge movement. But before the grunge explosion put the city on the musical map, Queensrÿche was representing Seattle internationally on tour, on TV and on the radio, with its mix of heavy metal and progressive rock. Starting with the single “Queen of the Reich” from the band’s self-titled debut EP, Queensrÿche appealed to both hardcore heavy metal fans and more casual listeners. The height of that appeal was the 1991 power ballad “Silent Lucidity,” which became a massive hit—a top 10 Billboard single and a Grammy nominee. “Another Rainy Night (Without You)” and “Eyes of a Stranger” have all become hard rock mainstays, and the band’s 1988 concept album Operation: Mindcrime has been cited as one of the greatest heavy metal albums of all time. Queensrÿche’s most recent album, 2015’s Condition Hüman, is the band’s second with lead singer Todd La Torre, and it hearkens back to the band’s early, heavier music. –Josh Bell

Nelly has come a long way since his Band-Aidwearing craze and “Country Grammar” days. On the music grid since 2000, the St. Louis rapper has topped the charts over the years with hits like “Hot in Herre,” “Ride Wit Me” and “Just a Dream,” and had chemistry with Kelly Rowland on “Dilemma,” Justin Timberlake on “Work It” and Diddy and Murphy Lee on “Shake Ya Tailfeather.” Besides music, he’s found success with two clothing lines, is the founder of the 4Sho4Kids Foundation and stars in Nellyville on BET. This week, Nelly brings his Midwest flavor to Foxtail nightclub to host the official TiVo after-party in honor of CES. –Chanelle Hayes

Still Strong A few months ago, Survivor guitarist and founding member Frankie Sullivan launched a lawsuit against a presidential candidate for unauthorized use of the band’s 1982 hit “Eye of the Tiger”—marking the second time that Sullivan has had to resort to legal action to prevent the band’s song from being appropriated by a politician. It’s a testament to the enduring power of the upbeat anthem originally written for Rocky III that even now, more than 30 years after its release, politicians still want to use it as a symbol of triumph and perseverance. Survivor is about more than “Eye of the Tiger,” though. The classic rock band founded in Chicago released its self-titled debut in 1980, and since then has racked up hits that include “Burning Heart,” “The Search Is Over” and “High on You,” and their songs remain staples of classic-rock radio. In addition to Sullivan, the band’s current lineup also includes original singer Dave Bickler, who returned to the band in

2013. With a new Rocky movie in theaters and newsmakers still ready to co-opt their songs, Survivor has proved that its music can easily live up to the band’s name. –Josh Bell

The Passion and the Energy As The Artist Currently Known as Prince in Purple Reign: The Prince Tribute Show, Jason Tenner is Las Vegas’ link to the Purple One, channeling the performer as if he himself had been purified in the waters of Lake Minnetonka. Tenner also produces the show, and people are amazed at how much the show feels like they are watching The Artist himself. Tenner said, “We cover the years of his biggest hits, 1981 to 1994. The show loosely plays off of the rivalry of Morris Day and Prince ... while in fully costumed skits.” The nonstop

musical party keeps the focus on his goldenera hits like “Raspberry Beret” and “Little Red Corvette.” And Tenner strives to make the show a “musical theater experience.” “We attempt to stay as true to the form and artistry of Prince as possible. Every player in the show loves Prince (his music).” This makes the tribute even more special, because everyone wants to honor the artist in the best possible way. –Penny Levin Westgate Las Vegas, 9 p.m. Wed.-Sat., $49-$69 VIP, $89 Purple Velvet Package, 18+. 800.222.5361

Have a Cigar Have you cut out smoking for the new year? Well if you’re missing it at all, you can still experience a well of satisfaction with the Have a Cigar adult coffee at Siegel’s 1941 inside El Cortez downtown.

English Influence

AT A GLANCE

Gordon Ramsay continues culinary ascent Is this the decade of Gordon Ramsay? It certainly seems so. The celebrity chef has opened three restaurants in Las Vegas, beginning with Gordon Ramsay Steak at Paris in early 2012, bringing a chorus of praise for his cuisine. The Michelin-starred chef presided over the upscale steakhouse, which brings a unique meat cart to the table, and serves up dishes such as roasted beef Wellington and the 32-ounce Royal longbone ribeye chop. That opening was followed by Gordon Ramsay Pub & Grill at Caesars Palace, giving Vegas visitors a taste of English pub food with an upscale twist, such as English beer-steamed clams and shepherd’s pie, and Gordon Ramsay BurGR, at Planet Hollywood Resort, presenting American

comfort food like the aptly named Devil Dog hot dog and a range of hamburgers (even a hog burger), but with the Ramsay touch. And it’s popular in Las Vegas: Gordon Ramsay BurGR has sold over a million burgers so far. Of course, they all feature his sticky toffee pudding. Those openings in 2012 were perfectly timed to take advantage of the chef’s popularity in the U.S. due to TV shows like Hell’s Kitchen, Masterchef and Masterchef Junior. He’s been nominated for 2016’s Critic’s Choice Awards for the latter two; Masterchef Junior just premiered its fourth season and Hell’s Kitchen goes into its 15th season later this month. And in Vegas, praise for Ramsay’s cuisine has remained as high as the praise for his shows. –Nina King

A Soaring Success The grounds at Luxor have welcomed more dancing feet than perhaps any other hotel on the Las Vegas Strip. Back in 1997, the property opened the doors to Ra, one of the first clublike venues within a Strip hotel. For nearly a decade, it celebrated success. But just as quickly as the city reinvents itself, so too does Vegas nightlife. Ra closed, the space was expanded and redesigned, and Luxor welcomed its new nightlife offering in 2007, L.A. nightclub import LAX. Rather than competing with the megaclub trend and knocking down the existing structure, last year around this time, LAX reopened its doors with a new interior design and musical programming, and success has followed. The 26,000-square-foot nightclub shed its red-and-black color scheme for lightened textiles. The dance floor was widened by 9 feet and the DJ booth was pushed back from the dance floor. VIP booths now sit in a stadium-style construction, so guests can enjoy unobstructed views of the party all around. –Kiko Miyasato

Duck, Duck … Duck Naughty Antics 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. “I like to think that I’m a pretty funny guy, and I use the hypnosis to sort of support the comedy aspect of the show,” he says. Although he’s never been interested in stand-up, he’s dedicated to making sure the audience has fun. “You want to quit smoking, go see a qualified hypnotherapist,” he says. “You want to get entertained, go see a stage hypnotist.” –Josh Bell

Comedy magician Adam London’s got all his ducks in a row in his lighthearted afternoon show, fittingly called Laughternoon. London combines some sleight of hand with some offthe-wall humor. And rubber duckies feature prominently in the act. He said it all started when his dentist went to see him perform and presented the gag gift to him. That became a signature theme for the man whose humor and sleight-of-hand entertains audiences. His jokes are perfectly pitched to the afternoon family crowd. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff The D, 4 p.m. daily, $19.95-$24.95 plus tax and fee. 702.388.2111

Framing Those Sexy Scenes Burlesque is one of the oldest forms of entertainment, but “X” Burlesque mixes in some of music’s hottest bands with modern dance moves. Having some of the most beautiful women on the planet doesn’t hurt, either. The performers have seemingly limitless energy as they hurtle their bodies through one routine after another, choreographed to the music of Led Zeppelin, Metallica, Christina Aguilera and more. The numbers showcase the amazing flexibility of the dancers, and, of course, tops are often shed. But this is a seriously updated female revue—you’ll see everything from country/western line dancing to psychedelic rock routines. That’s not to say “X” abandons its roots. The show still features feather boas and a champagne glass routine, where a performer climbs into a large glass and douses herself. The production celebrated its 13th anniversary

in 2015, and it’s not hard to see why it endures: It’s naughty, topless fun, sure, but it’s also one of the most entertaining things on the Las Vegas Strip. –Ken Miller

Music and the Movement Listen, do you want to know a secret—do you promise that you’ll tell? There’s Fab Four fun to be had at The Beatles LOVE, a marriage of mop-top musicality and Cirque du Soleil artistry. In an impressionistic tableau, LOVE features 60 performers exploring the iconic band’s song catalog. Fanciful figures that come to life via Beatles classics include Eleanor Rigby, the Walrus, Lady Madonna, Sgt. Pepper and Lucy. Another character, Julia, evokes Julia Lennon, mother of John. In a loose story structure, they bring the Beatles’ biography to life from the

band’s birth and climb to global phenomenon, through the psychedelic and spiritual phases and on to the 1970 breakup. Interpreting the journey are acts including rope contortionists, swing acrobats, bungee and trampoline artists, skaters and urban-style free runners. LOVE samples a whopping 120 songs to create 27 separate pieces, many mixed so the arrangements and lyrics blend from one to another. –Steve Bornfeld The Mirage, 7 & 9:30 p.m. Thurs.-Mon., $79$180 plus tax and fee. 702.792.7777

Cold, Yet Heartwarming Disney’s animated feature film Frozen comes to life when the thrilling story becomes the 34th Disney On Ice spectacular, featuring 40 talented skaters. One of them, Florian Valera, who plays the Duke of Weselton, talked to Las Vegas Magazine about his role and the show. “It’s great for audiences to see the beloved characters coming to life through skating, dancing and acting. The Duke is kind of a funny character, sort of a bad guy and always on his guard. It gives me the chance to do many things on the ice,” said Valera.

The athletic Valera’s skating skills are evident in this magnificent production. Valera said his favorite part of the show is the opening number, with its fabulous costumes, choreography, skating, sets and special effects. Mickey and Minnie Mouse introduces heartwarming characters such as Olaf, Sven and Kristoff, and Frozen’s story, which presents two royal sisters—Anna, a girl with an extraordinary heart, who sets out to find Elsa, who has ventured out into the world to test her magical powers. –Penny Levin

The Legend Lives Set to tunes such as “Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’,” “Bad” and “Don’t Stop ’Til You Get Enough,” MJ Live delivers the legend of Michael Jackson with propulsive force. A team of dancers backs the tribute artist, but it’s always clear who the star of the show is and it’s inarguable what he stirs in the audience members. Aside from songs and dancing, MJ Live includes a Jackson 5 segment (“I’ll Be There,” “I Want You Back”). “MJ” himself stays in the Dangerous zone, with outfits seemingly inspired by Jackson’s fashion sense from the ’80s to early ’90s. –Matt Kelemen Stratosphere, 7 p.m. daily, $49.95-$79.95 VIP plus tax and fee. 702.380.7777

Jan Rouven first arrived in Vegas in October 2009, performing some of the escapes from his current show The New Illusions (Tropicana, 800.829.9034) on Fremont Street. Siegfried & Roy and Rouven struck up a friendship, and the duo would later give him their blessing in a benevolent way: They gave Rouven a centerpiece of his act now, Origami. Other illusions are the Drill of Death, Puzzle of Life, a water tank escape and a double levitation. –MK

Get the Fever To call The Australian Bee Gees Show: A Tribute to the Bee Gees (Excalibur, 702.597.7600) just a tribute would be unfair, considering one can no longer see the Bee Gees. Watching Michael Clift, David Scott and Wayne Hosking is really the only way to get close to seeing the band perform. Clift, Scott and Hosking perfectly emulate the Gibb brothers—from the high notes of disco-era songs to the almost Beatlesesque harmonies of the 1960s. –Susan Stapleton

Get Your Day On

Successful party continues into the new year at Palms With 24 hours in a day, why keep the party locked down to the nighttime hours? Yes, while Vegas is known for some of the most awesome nightlife in the world, it took a place like the Palms and its club Ghostbar to bring the nightlife to the sunlight, and it accomplished this feat smashingly with its recurring 1 p.m. Saturday party, Ghostbar Dayclub (GBDC). On Oct. 17, GBDC kicked off its fourth successful season and will go all the way through spring 2016. For those who haven’t gotten their fill of nightlife, GBDC provides some pretty wicked daylife—think all the main ingredients of nightlife indulgences but during daylight hours. The minute you step off the elevators that lead to GBDC on the 55th floor, you’re hit with the bumping

40 1.3.16 LasVegasMagazine.com

sounds of music, whistles and crowds cheering. Walking into the party, there are go-go dancers up on the bar moving in unison, someone bending backwards to take a gulp off the beer bong, colorful confetti flying through the air to join the 1-inch layer already flooding the floor and a circle formed with break dancers in the middle. There’s neon colors all around—whether it’s the staff of GBDC dressed in pink neon tutus, knee-highs, T-shirts and green wigs, or partiers donning glowing neon necklaces, bracelets, headbands and sunglasses, or just downright funky outfits. If you forgot your rave wear, don’t worry. Boxes are strewn throughout the club with accessories for you to put on. FYI: Partygoers who come dressed in themed costumes receive

free admission. The party also takes place literally under the sun. An expansive patio houses sofas, lounge chairs and speakers to keep the music blaring outdoors, and there are unbeatable views of the Las Vegas Strip and valley beyond. Champagne spraying and cryoguns used to shoot smoke and confetti high into the air keep the ambience pumping, and giant glow sticks and strobe lights welcome the sunset. This Saturday, Jan. 9, Ghostbar welcomes Mark Stylz and Exodus on the decks; and, ladies can enjoy open champagne bar from 1-2 p.m. So, who’s ready to do some crazy daytime partying? –Las Vegas Magazine Staff Palms, 1 p.m. Sat., $10 females, $20 males, 21+. 702.942.6232

Short rib tortellini gigante with arrabiata sauce

Fresco Italiano combines old-country feel with new ideas 42 1.3.16 LasVegasMagazine.com

nosh cheers

For a place so new, this feels so completely comfortable. The new Fresco Italiano in Westgate channels that open-air dining experience we so often associate with Tuscany—a peaceful table laden with delights. The décor here actually pulls in several elements of Italian influence, including the stone patio, elegant dining room and even a train-car excursion, with the countryside flowing past. The “windows” can be seen from most parts of the dining area, lending an unusual aspect to the dining experience. No matter where you are sitting, you’ll appreciate the menu, small enough to peruse easily, yet wide enough to give everyone in your party plenty of options. Without a doubt, you’ll want to start with a nice glass of wine to accompany soft Italian bread dipped in balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Fresco features only Italian wines on the wine list, including dessert wines. If you need a guiding hand, just ask—the charming staff, from waiter to general manager, is happy to help. Move on to antipasti—the chef can put together meats, cheeses, marinated vegetables or fresh olives, whatever suits your taste. Ask for the lavosh—soft and crispy with light charring on the edge and warm with flakes—to accompany fresh, soft mozzarella, smoked Gouda, goat cheese rolled in pistachios, capicola or prosciutto. And although the family–style menu created by chefs Michael McNeilly and Justin Hancock

Charcuterie

presents many classic flavors, you’ll find plenty of twists on those, too. The pasta portion of the menu is mix and match, where you can pair pastas such as penne, pappardelle or a soft, lovely Asiago-filled gnocchi with Alfredo, clam or arrabiata sauce. The arrabiata fully lives up to its angry name, a spicy marinara-style sauce spotlighting chunky tomato, garlic and chilies. Get that with the short rib tortellini gigante and you’ll be in heaven—the moist, stuffed tortellini measures maybe three or four inches. Polenta-encrusted eggplant Parmesan plays with the traditional dish, layering thinly sliced melanzana with mozzarella peppers and polenta

Gnocchi with Alfredo sauce

in a massive wedge that is then flash-fried and served on a plate of marinara. It works very well; the eggplant is tender without being even slightly mushy. And it’s too huge to even attempt on your own; be gracious and share. Like a meal at home, take your time and indulge. The perfect ending may be the unusual panna cotta—a layered dessert presented in a large glass. Dig through the whipped cream and raspberries and you’ll hit a crème brûléestyle sugar crust; a bit further down is the light, creamy pistachio base. Now, drain the last drops of your wine and finish off your latte— you’ve arrived at your destination. Eggplant Parmesan

But it’s at The Bank that she’s found a solid second career and treasured co-workers. “The ladies—we’re like a family here. We get along so well.

Jaime Lynch presides over the sensual charms of Fantasy Stepping offstage—gliding, really, with liquid-like grace—she tilts the microphone toward a male audience member in the front row and asks how long he’s been married. “Three years,” he says, affirmed by his missus’ nod. “Good job,” sexy show host Jaime Lynch tells the gent she’ll later coax onstage to do a shy-guy Elvis shtick as lasses gyrate around him. “You’re going to get (fill in the naughty blank) tonight.” Should the production’s theme be unclear, cast your eyes back onstage as the fetching young ladies, free of pesky, constrictive breast garments, frolic on a bed as a recording blasts: “Nasty boys don’t ever change—oh, you nasty boys.” Welcome to Fantasy—a sensual kaleidoscope of hot gals crossed with cool choreography, the comedy of Sean E. Cooper and powerhouse singing/joiede-vivre hosting of Lynch. “This is the culmination of all the jobs I’ve done over the years,” says Lynch, a veteran singer/dancer on the sexy-show circuit, having performed in past Strip productions including Peepshow, iCandy Burlesque and Sirens of TI. “I want to represent the show and the girls in a classy, fun way.”

48 1.3.16 LasVegasMagazine.com

Over 75 minutes—and going into its 17th year at Luxor—Fantasy spotlights its topless, tantalizing dancers in an array of numbers, including the snappy opening set to Little Mix’s “Salute,” a seductive fan dance, a sensual and gymnastic shimmy up and down a red silk, floor-to-ceiling ribbon, and other sexy segments synced to an eclectic soundtrack. Interspersed throughout is Cooper’s comical impersonations of James Brown (spouting amusing gibberish), Michael Jackson and even Beyoncé. Threading it all together is Lynch, who commands the showroom with her rip-the-hide-off-the-ball pipes on “Try a Little Tenderness,” plus interpretations of Jordin Sparks’ “I Am Woman” and Miranda Lambert’s “Little Red Wagon.” “I grew up dancing and acting, but I didn’t start singing until my 20s, which is not common for singers,” says Lynch, who has played catch-up quite nicely. “For years it felt like everyone knew me only as a dancer and now they know me only as a singer. The newer dancers, when they find out I can dance, they’re kind of shocked.” Yet it was the provocative hoofing in all her previous productions, which

also included American Superstars and a local Pussycat Dolls production, that propelled her to the upper ranks of Vegas stalwarts. “Every one of those jobs was a stepping stone,” she says. “It gave me this great foundation, kind of a Showgirl 101. I use all of it every night.” Once she slipped into hosting, she had to acquire an additional skill—working the crowd. “When I first started doing it I was terrified, but now I can tell from the beginning of the show how the audience is responding—even before I come out, I can feel it,” she says. “I want to break down that fourth wall immediately and connect. It’s a give and take of energy.” That explains a smile so wide that the corners of her mouth might meet at the back of her neck. And the impassioned appreciation she exhorts the audience to show for dancers who not long ago included Lynch herself. And the swanlike stroll through the aisles, fixing a gentle, friendly gaze on reticent showgoers to relax them. And sexily teasing, then amiably calming a cluster of bachelorpartiers whose vocabulary, at least here and now, amounts to “Woo-hoo!” and saliva-specked wolf whistles. Can you blame them? Just take a look onstage.

The coming year in Las Vegas brings new experiences By Kiko Miyasato Now that 2015 is behind us, look ahead at what’s to come in 2016. Las Vegas’ vibe is one of constant change, and that’s part of the city’s appeal—there’s always something different to experience and a reason to return. It’s time to get excited as Las Vegas Magazine takes you through what the city has coming for the new year.

Las Vegas Arena

50 1.3.16 LasVegasMagazine.com

Las Vegas Arena From the outside, it’s an impressive achievement, and the Las Vegas Arena will be a big draw when it opens in spring. Estimated to cost $375 million, with 50 luxury suites, VIP entrances, a 2-acre outdoor plaza and LEED Gold Certification, the 650,000-square-foot arena will accommodate up to 20,000 guests for concerts, sporting events and awards shows.

Jennifer Lopez She’s graced TV, radio and the silver screen, and now will take the stage beginning Jan. 20 at Planet Hollywood Resort’s Axis Theater. One of the biggest celebrities on the planet, J.Lo will dazzle in her headlining residency show, All I Have. Concertgoers can expect Lopez to sing her own hit songs, ballads, Latin music and funk, all backed by a live band, dancers, costume

changes and dazzling state-ofthe-art technology. Superstar Concerts Not only will the Las Vegas Arena be a big draw for entertainment, the venue has already booked its stage with superstar power. Janet Jackson unleashes new music from her latest album, Unbreakable, as her world tour makes a stop at the Arena on May 14. Another musical gi-


ant, the Dixie Chicks make a stop on July 16 during their DCX MMXVI World Tour. And, considered the King of Country Music, George Strait plays multiple dates at the Arena, April 22-23, Sept. 9-10 and Dec. 2-3. Jewel Nightlife never slows down in Las Vegas, and 2016 welcomes another new player, Jewel at Aria Resort and Casino. Scheduled to open in the spring, Jewel will offer nearly 30,000 square feet of party space, with five-themed VIP suites on a mezzanine level, walls of light and LED technology and rich and opulent textures and embellishments running throughout the entire venue.

Beer Park by Budweiser With plans to open in early 2016—just in time for the Super Bowl—Beer Park by Budweiser will have 10,000 square feet of outdoor playground with grills, picnic tables and multiple TVs for sports viewing. The Paris venue will offer more than 100 various beers, 36 of them on tap; the food menu will offer American cuisine, including meats grilled on a custommade Budweiser Beachwood Grill. Roaming carts will sell concession-style treats. Electric Daisy Carnival It’s been a massive hit since its 2011 move from L.A. to the Las Vegas Motor Speedway, and the Electric Daisy Carnival

returns once again June 17-19. However, 2016 marks the 20th year that Insomniac puts on the electronic dance music festival—so partiers should not only expect one massive, unforgettable blowout but even more surprises and more over-the-top experiences. Sugar Factory American Brasserie Sweet lovers everywhere can begin to rejoice as Sugar Factory American Brasserie will open its largest location in the brand’s portfolio sometime this year. The venue will cover 16,000 square feet and two levels at Fashion Show. The restaurant and retail haven will offer cocktails, cuisine and its

famous confections and couture pops. A highlight will be the 3,000-square-foot Chocolate Lounge ,where chocolate fondues are paired with wine, champagne and liquor. Topgolf Las Vegas Score! Or should it be “fore”? Come this spring, a four-level entertainment complex on the MGM Grand grounds will house all things golf. The facility will offer 102 climate-controlled hitting bays that can host six players at a time and a 215-yard outfield. Special features will include VIP cabanas, a stage for live musical acts, water features throughout the facility, views of the Strip, event spaces and a restaurant and bar.

Celine Dion’s newest production draws on a wellspring of emotion When life lays you low, art can lift you up. On the stage of the Colosseum at Caesars Palace, one woman is lifting herself. And carrying us with her. “I have missed you very much, your applause, your cheers,” Celine Dion told fans recently on the night she ended her yearlong absence from their lives. “But I did not miss your love because I knew I always had it.” At the urging of her throat cancer-ravaged husband, Rene Angelil—she put her career on hold to care for him—Dion returned to resume her superstar showcase and wow the faithful. As Angelil watched via a live camera feed, before the show his devoted wife discussed how she has coped with her family’s misfortune. “My three children and my wonderful husband wanted me to be here because I’m not quite sure if I was ready to be here.” Yet the lady proves otherwise. Elegantly she strides toward us in a floor-length gown before a full orchestra. After she delivers “I Surrender,” fans roar, on their feet, some not to take their seats again for nearly two hours. “I’m trying to stay as grounded as possible. I want to show my (three) children that sickness

is part of life, and I have their backs. We got this. We’re doing this. It’s OK. And you cannot be crying and depressed and constantly talk about, ‘Oh my God,’ you know?” Vintage Dion footage flows across screens and years peel away as she performs “Where Does My Heart Beat Now,” followed by “Because You Loved Me,” “It’s All Coming Back to Me Now” and “The Power of Love,” the circumstances of her life infusing them with pathos. “The songs have meaning now. I sang them but now I mean it. To me they will become different songs. The words will become alive more than ever before.” Alone on a stool, as she delicately interprets “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face,” film of her family enjoying private time unspools behind her. Crowd cheers erupt when Angelil’s face pops up. Queen’s “The Show Must Go On” is her articulation of the night’s theme. After “I’m Alive,” she says, simply: “I love you, Rene.” Again, the crowd screams. “(He’s) passing along his strength to me. We have talked about things. I’m being heard many times, through my interviews, through

my songs. It’s time for him to be heard. This is his time and it’s going to be the way he wants it to be.” Beyond moments of personal emotional resonance, Dion treats us to a flat-out good time. Duets with holographic Sinatra and Elvis. Prince’s “Kiss” and “Purple Rain.” Wading into the crowd to press fan flesh—connecting with her de facto extended family that remains bonded to her through the tough times and the good times. “There are a lot of people who are alone struggling with battles. I think that would be the worst. When you have family around you, I think that helps tremendously.” With an impeccable rendition of “My Heart Will Go On” and an achingly gorgeous “Somewhere Over the Rainbow,” the soft-spoken, golden-voiced chanteuse brings her return to a touching, misty-eyed climax. Before it all, Celine Dion had gazed into the camera’s red light at the back of the Colosseum and addressed the man she loves, urging him to do what we all just did. “Promise me something—just enjoy, just enjoy.”

1. Giada at The Cromwell Giada De Laurentiis is in the kitchen about every other week at her first restaurant, and that includes breakfast from 8 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. daily. Order up specialty dishes such as the strawberry polenta waffle or breakfast contadina with eggs, polenta cakes, spinach, oven-roasted tomatoes and toast. On weekends, find more variety on the brunch menu. 855.442.3271 2. Bouchon at The Venetian Thomas Keller’s breakfast brings French delights from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. Monday through Thursday. Start with pastries, and then add to the carb overload with brioche dorée, a French toast with vanilla custard, caramelized apples and bananas, or gaufres au levain, sourdough waffles with strawberries. 702.414.6200 3. Veranda at the Four Seasons This restaurant’s breakfast delights diners every Monday to Friday from 6:30 to 11 a.m. and Saturday and Sunday from 7 to 11 a.m. Indulge in buttermilk griddle cakes or the s’mores French toast. Other worthy options include the breakfast panini or house-smoked Atlantic salmon on a bagel with cream cheese. There’s a breakfast buffet on weekends from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., too. 702.632.5121 4. Du-par’s at the Golden Gate Order breakfast round the clock at this classic diner inside Golden Gate. Pancakes are the specialty, so pick the buttermilk hotcakes in stacks of three or five, and choose French toast made with thick white bread and served with blueberry or boysenberry compote. 702.366.9378 5. Hash House A Go Go at The Linq, Plaza and Rio This diner specializes in giant servings of farmfed breakfast. The massive plates, seemingly suited for an army, include favorite Andy’s sage fried chicken Benedict, sausage gravy and buttermilk biscuits, or the griddled Hash House meatloaf with two eggs. Hung over? Go ahead and order the O’Hare of the dog with a 24-ounce Budweiser and a side of bacon. 702.254.4646, 702.386.2594, 702.777.7777 6. Rí Rá at The Shoppes at Mandalay Place The Irish sure know how to serve up a breakfast worthy of your worst hangover. This Irish pub puts breakfast on the agenda from 8 to 11 a.m.

Monday through Friday with the Kilcullen omelet with house-brined corned beef, an Irish Benedict made with potato cakes and rashers, and a breakfast boxty, the potato sandwich with Hollandaise sauce, Irish sausage, tomato, potato and egg. 702.632.7771 7. Guy Fieri’s Vegas Kitchen & Bar at The Linq A Hangover Recovery bloody Mary is a must for any morning after, and Guy Fieri gives you an entire menu of options for yours, including the amount of heat and garnishes such as pineapple, pickled veggies and candied bacon. If it’s food you need to sop up that alcohol, get there for the 8 a.m. daily opening and order the chicken fried bacon biscuits and gravy or the Dragon’s Breath chili cornbread Benedict to knock that hangover out. 702.731.3311

8. Crossroads at House of Blues Breakfast runs from an early 7 a.m. to late 1 p.m. at this Southern joint, where you can sate your hunger pangs with Southern specialties such as biscuits with black pepper country sausage gravy and “Big Ole’ Flapjacks” made from scratch. Go local with The Vegas, an omelet with Swiss cheese, Black Forest ham, spinach, garlic and tomatoes. 702.632.7607 9. Pantry at The Mirage Your grandma’s pantry never looked so good. The Mirage has taken the nostalgia of a bygone era and turned it into Pantry, a 24-hour spot serving breakfast, lunch, dinner and late-night. But the menu focuses on breakfast around the clock—one side of the menu is dedicated to the eggs, pancakes and other dishes generally only served in the morning. 702.696.7050

Someone’s Got to Say It Name a controversial subject and chances are excellent that comedian Eddie Griffin (Rio, 800.745.3000 Ticketmaster) will discuss it during his stand-up comedy act. Be prepared to listen to side-splitting, irreverent and shocking dialogue that touches on religion, the Bible, politics, sex, celebrities, racism and, oh, just about anything that could possibly offend someone.

But this uncensored routine is thoroughly embraced by fans of this funnyman, who starred in the popular television sitcom Malcolm & Eddie and had roles in movies like Scary Movie 3, Double Take, Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo, Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo and Undercover Brother. For a comic who didn’t know what it meant to be working “blue” in the comedy field, he has

now perfected this genre, and you’ll hear him express opinions that many of us may think but wouldn’t verbalize. Griffin is here to entertain and that he does. Laughing is supposed to be good for the soul, and there’s plenty of that in one of his shows. There may even be some pithy comments from Griffin about the soul and what we all tend to believe in. –Penny Levin

Big Play, Big Winnings Downtown Grand Hotel & Casino (702.719.5100 or downtowngrand.com) recently launched its $250,000 Slot Tournament, culminating in the grand finals in December 2016. There are four ways Downtown Grand Rewards members can qualify for the tournament: hit a jackpot of $1,200 or more in a calendar month; earn 1,000 base slot points in a calendar month; be the top slot point earner on any given day; or win a weekly drawing (any member with recorded play is automatically entered into the drawing). The top 50 scores every month from the semi-final rounds win spots in the grand finals. All told, 600 players will compete in December. “One of the great features of this tournament is that if a player does not win a spot in the top 50 that month, they can requalify for another monthly session while they are here,” Jim Simms, CEO of Downtown Grand, said in a news release. “We’ve also just launched one of the best slot point programs in the city, so this tournament gives local and out-of-town guests an extremely compelling reason to play at the Downtown Grand Hotel & Casino.” –Ken Miller

Capturing All the Predators’ Action While more than 15 species of sharks lurk underwater at the Shark Reef Aquarium (Mandalay Bay, 702.632.4555), next door visitors can now take a look at the inner workings of said sea creatures. Recently opened in conjunction with the Aquarium, the new Sea Monsters Revealed exhibit features animals preserved in a process called polymer plastination. That allows people to discover the anatomy of species like the whale shark, mako shark, sunfish, and individual organs of tropical fish, crustaceans and octopuses—quite the scholastic experience. And the Shark Reef Aquarium itself models itself after an ancient Indo-Pacific temple slowly being overtaken by aquatic reptiles and the very ocean itself. The aquarium’s deepest and most immersive level houses the 1.3 million-gallon main attraction. You’ll find yourself within a shipwreck below the waves, with all manner of sharks, sea turtles, sawfish and other species swimming above, beside and even below. It’s nearly impossible to catch a glimpse at every single critter inhabiting this tank, but stick around for as long as you can and try. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff

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. To mark Mat Franco: Magic Reinvented Nightly’s 100th performance at the Linq Hotel, America’s Got Talent winner Mat Franco and his cast and crew celebrated with a magic-themed cake presentation. The company was presented with a cake designed by Las Vegas’ Showboy Bake Shop. The cake featured elements from Franco’s close-up magic show, including a replica of the cannon used in the show, a deck of playing cards and more.

WhoWhatWhere Flamingo Las Vegas headliners united as Marie Osmond was spotted in the audience of Olivia Newton-John’s Summer Nights. Immediately following the show, Osmond went backstage to visit and take photos with Newton-John. In November, NewtonJohn announced that she will extend

her highly popular residency at Flamingo Las Vegas through 2016. Joel McHale (The Soup) surprised American Express Card members at Centurion Lounge in Vegas’ McCarran Airport, manning the check-in desk and passing out ridiculously large teddy bears to guests with small carry-ons!

Eric Hosmer, first baseman for the 2015 World Series-winning Kansas City Royals, was spotted at a birthday celebration for sports bettor Dave “Vegas Dave” Oancea at FIZZ Las Vegas inside Caesars Palace. Britney Spears impersonator Derrick Barry attended Newton-John’s show at the Flamingo.

The wacky, antic-filled web series The Gazillionaire, which chronicles the beginnings of Absinthe at Caesars Palace, was named Best Web Video at the 2015 Digital Media Awards. The 10-episode web series starring The Gazillionaire and his former personal assistant Penny Pibbets launched on YouTube in September 2014. Zappos chief Tony Hsieh, magician The Amazing Johnathan and yours truly have appeared in cameo roles of the video series. Kevin Federline, the father of sons Jayden James and Sean Preston with Planet Hollywood Resort headliner Britney Spears, has reportedly landed a six-weekend DJ residency at Crazy Horse III Gentlemen’s Club, or as Federline says: “My favorite gentlemen’s club.” He recently debuted a song he produced titled “Crazy Horse” at the club’s annual Neon Flow XXXmas bash. Federline was with his wife Victoria Prince and in a tweet joked: “She likes strippers more than I do.”

Baseball stars Bryce Harper and Kris Bryant awarded keys to the city MLB hometown heroes Bryce Harper and Kris Bryant got the ultimate recognition from our Mayor Carolyn Goodman recently. To honor Harper, who attended Las Vegas High and College of Southern Nevada, for winning the National League’s MVP Award and Bryant for his Rookie of the Year Award, Madame Mayor gave them official Keys to the City. No, that doesn’t mean that they can waltz into any casino and play for free. NBC Sports anchors have speculated that when Harper, who is an outfielder for the Washington Nationals (his stat line for 2015 was a staggering 42 home runs, .330 batting average and 118

96 1.3.16 LasVegasMagazine.com

runs scored), becomes a free agent after the 2018 season, he’ll be in line for a $500 million contract. Bryant, who graduated from Bonanza High and attended the University of San Diego, is third baseman for the Chicago Cubs. For the second consecutive year, The Venetian and The Palazzo team members accepted all-star pitcher Clayton Kershaw’s challenge to pledge $100 for each of his strikeouts during the 2015 MLB season. His strikeouts for the Los Angeles Dodgers, 301 in the regular season and 19 in the post-season, raised $32,000 from the hotel’s citizen program, Sands Cares. Kershaw’s foundation assists at-risk children.
