Alan Cumming Performer brings intimate one-man show to Las Vegas
Alan Cumming’s cabaret-style show, Alan Cumming Sings Sappy Songs, originated in his dressing room after performances as The Emcee in the musical Cabaret, but a two-week run at Manhattan’s Café Carlyle was so well received that taking it on the road was a natural next step. Part memoir and part homage to an eclectic group of pop songs (think Miley Cyrus, Billy Joel and Avril Lavigne), Sappy Songs, which Cumming brings to The Smith Center on July 23, enables the Scottish actor to make a more personal connection with audiences than roles on TV’s The Good Wife and in forthcoming film Battle of the Sexes can provide. He spoke recently with Las Vegas Magazine’s Matt Kelemen. Brexit happened after this interview was scheduled. It must have really torn you up being away from Scotland while there’s so much turmoil at home. Oh, yeah. Brexit’s been … there seems to be such a lesson for us in America where the same sort of fearmongering and jingoistic … what’s the word? Not “racism.” Xenophobia? Yes, that as well, but that being used to tell the public what it wants to hear with actually no real plan, no real political framework behind it. It has us reeling. It’s a mess. Now people are coming forward saying what a stupid thing this was, but at the same time, the silver lining for Scotland is it’s going to prompt another referendum for independence because it’s such a huge constitutional crisis. … We, Scotland, weren’t allowed to leave England, but England was going to force us to leave Europe. That is clear, yes. I think in a way it’s a terrible, terrible stupid mess, but I think for Scotland it could be a good thing. Considering the arc of your career, it almost seems as if
24 7.17.16 LasVegasMagazine.com
you’ve been heading toward Sings Sappy Songs since you chose an actor’s path. Like you came back to play yourself after finding refuge from the painful past you documented in your memoir by immersing yourself in other characters. Is that a fair assessment? I definitely feel that this show, and my book, are … I feel like I’ve been on this journey of being more authentic and honest as a performer. To be able to talk about myself, about my real life, actually allows me to connect more with the material, with an audience. … This show is a big deal to me, it really is. I really laid myself on the line. Do you think you’d be doing this if you hadn’t been cast as The Emcee in Cabaret in Sam Mendes’ 1998 revival, or would your path have led to a similar place? No, probably not. Doing The Emcee took me to America and to living here, so in that way, no. But actually I was doing cabaret— not the show but the form—in Edinburgh. (In July) it will be 34 years since I first performed at a cabaret show there with a friend of mine (Forbes Masson).
I started off when I was going to drama school. We had an act called Victor and Barry and performed it at the Festival. It became huge and had its own TV show and everything in Scotland. It was a character cabaret. It wasn’t just us talking. There were funny characters. It was just standing up, talking to the audience and singing songs. So that form I’m actually very familiar with. It’s a very Scottish thing,
so in a way I’m coming back to my roots. What’s your history with your musical director, Lance Horne? We go way back. … We actually shared a boyfriend. I wanted to sing one of his songs in my first show. We settled the songs and then I chose the one, annoyingly, that he had written about the exboyfriend, so we’ve got an intense back story. He’s great.

Be sure to take advantage of the summer menus at Emeril Lagasse’s restaurants. Delmonico Steakhouse at The Venetian features a $65 three-course meal with favorites like gumbo and Alaskan halibut. Table 10 at The Palazzo offers a $48 four-course menu that includes ahi tuna tartare and sweet corn soup. At MGM Grand, Emeril’s New Orleans Fish House’s Four for $48 menu includes baked lobster gratin and strawberry rhubarb crisp. Enjoy!
Italian Summer
Never been to a garden in Italy? No problem. On display through Sept. 7, Summer in the Waterfall Atrium and Gardens at The Palazzo transports guests to an extraordinary and elegant display, reminiscent of an Italian wonderland. Among an assortment of boxwood and olive trees, along with more than 5,000 orchids and other plants, stand 9-feet-tall mannequins wearing elaborate floral dresses and hats (drawing from vintage European designs), with rose petals tastefully constructed from recycled paper products. These hand-cut and painted rose displays are definitely meant to impress. The display is free to view 24 hours daily.

Las Vegas Boulevard has had several other names throughout its history, including 5th Street, Arrowhead Highway and Salt Lake Highway.

One Tequila, Two Hot spots to drink and party, all in the name of the spirit
It’s probably one of the most debated spirits as far as “What type of night are you planning on having?” Yes, once tequila enters the picture, all bets are off—one is either in for a memorable night, or a night that even the person with the best memory won’t recollect. To honor this spirit, July 24 has been dubbed National Tequila Day. The city offers plenty of places to imbibe, but the following are just a few hot spots to indulge. If you like your tequila with a party, Senor Frog’s at Treasure Island and Carlos n’ Charlie’s at Flamingo both have a long history of mixing the two. The former has been selling a fiesta-type atmosphere mixed with tasty tequila cocktails all around the world since 1969. At Carlos n’ Charlie’s, flair bartenders put on a show while whipping up margaritas and specialty cocktails—watch out for dancing and singing servers. For some serious tasting, visit T&T at Luxor. It offers dozens of labels that include blanco, añejo, extra añejo and reposado, plus mezcal, along with flights so you can taste multiple tequilas, from moderately priced to high-end, hard-to-find brands. Down the Strip, you’ll find Sammy Hagar’s joint, Cabo Wabo Cantina at Planet Hollywood Resort. Here, indulge in the Red Rocker’s famous Cabo Wabo tequila brand available in blanco, añejo, reposado and a private selection. One cocktail not to miss: the memorable Cocorita. –Kiko Miyasato

Tops in Props Let’s start with what we can’t start with: the Fifty Shades of Grey movie-watching companion device—practical, but with a hint of kink. Family-friendly we may be, but Carrot Top, its inventor, isn’t quite as circumspect.

Where did the prop-gag wit begin? Flash back to the Top’s days as a Florida college student, when he dabbled in standard standup that needed a goose—and got it when he swiped a “Neighborhood Crime Watch”
sign. “Everybody said, ‘Where did you get the sign?’ I said, ‘I took it—and how good is their crime watch if I’m taking their sign?’ It was funny and a friend said I should open with that.” The rest is comedy history.

Stronger Than Ever Not every band could come back from what Eagles of Death Metal experienced in Paris on Nov. 13 of last year, when terrorists attacked their concert. The band members escaped with their lives, and since then they’ve not only continued to perform, but they’ve also used the incident to help promote tolerance and healing. A wide range of artists covered the EODM song “I Love You All the Time,” with proceeds going to victims of the Paris attacks, and the band renamed its resumed European tour the Nos Amis Tour in tribute to those victims. EODM has emerged stronger than ever, performing around the world and energizing audiences with its catchy, groove-oriented hard rock. Founded by Queens of the Stone Age’s Josh Homme and longtime friend Jesse Hughes, EODM features a rotating lineup of musicians who tour with Hughes, and has included the likes of Dave Grohl, Mark Lanegan and Brody Dalle as contributors. That community of collaborators is now ready to take the band out of a dark time and into a promising future. –Josh Bell

A Classic Dining Experience 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. Don’t forget the restaurant’s famous “zip sauce.” 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
For years, Israeli electronic dance music producer and DJ Borgore was known for his dubstep musical stylings until he switched gears to the drum and bass genre. Borgore gets bodies on the dance floor with hardcore beats in hits like 2013’s “Booty Monsta” collaboration with Victor Niglio. Known for being an avid remixer, Borgore has remixed everything from Britney Spears’ “Womanizer” to O.T.

Country Survivor Chase Rice, part of Mandalay Bay’s Concerts on the Beach series, was bubbling at the surface of country music success in 2012 when his song “Cruising” became a hit for Florida Georgia Line. Hard work drove him through a successful high school and University of North Carolina football career, and Survivor: Nicaragua brought him national recognition in 2010, but within two years his debut album Dirt Road Communion cracked the Billboard Country Albums chart. Then 2014’s Ignite the Night became the No. 1 country album. The success of his latest single “Everybody We Know Does” will likely foreshadow the reception of Rice’s next full-length album, due out before the end of the year. Although his previous single, “Whisper,” stalled this spring before cracking country’s top 10, Rice is not one to be discouraged. Artists such as Garth Brooks and Kenny Chesney were inspirational for their showmanship; Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson
and Johnny Cash set examples for the outlaw outlook; and his late father inspired him to sing. As long as the crowds keep coming, he’ll be happy. –Matt Kelemen

Garden State Greats Big boys don’t cry—they scramble out from under hardscrabble lives to create one of the signature pop groups of the 20th century. Which leads to one of the beloved jukebox musicals of the 21st century. In Jersey Boys, we learn the compelling story of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons: how they found their sound behind the distinct falsetto of their lead singer; relied on backing from a local crime boss; and rode a roller coaster of career highs, personal lows and internal strife en route to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Propelling it all are tunes embedded in the soundtrack of several generations: “Rag Doll,” “Sherry,” “Big Girls Don’t Cry,” “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You,” “Who Loves You” and “December, 1963 (Oh, What a Night)” among them. Other songs from the 1950s and ’60s, such as “Earth Angel,” “Silhouettes,” “I’m in the Mood for Love” and “A Sunday Kind of Love” round out the musical’s score. –Steve Bornfeld Paris, 7 p.m. Tues.-Sun., $52.80-$184.80 plus tax and fee, VIP seating available, 12+. 702.777.7776

Lakeside Dining Done Right Awash in whites and splashes of color, Lago by Julian Serrano is contemporary without being over the top. And those lucky enough to be seated on the patio have one of the best seats on the Strip. Begin with the al cipollotto e speck pizza, which combines smoky cured meat with sweet onions and buffalo ricotta. The most surprising dish might be the polpo e fregola al nero, which delivers octopus alongside a Sardinian couscous dark with squid ink. Along more traditional lines, Serrano serves a variety of panini (try the vegetarian option) and pastas including textured malloreddos, with the gnocchi-like pasta effectively sopping up the rich, pork sausagefilled tomato sauce. The gnocchi alla romana is a flat, circular version of the familiar pasta. –Jim Begley Bellagio, brunch 11 a.m.-2:30 p.m. Sun., lunch 11:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m. Mon.-Sat., dinner 5-11 p.m. Sun.-Thurs., 5 p.m.-midnight Fri.Sat. 702.693.8865

One of Cirque du Soleil’s most vigorous exercises in athletic mysticism, KÀ was named for the Egyptian idea of ka. Brought to theatrical life, KÀ tells the tale of “the coming of age of a young man and a young woman.”

Sexxy is not your typical topless show. Not by a long shot. When is the last time you saw a strip tease to a song by Björk? Sexxy hits on several different styles of dance from various generations—everything from a cabaret-style number to “Big Spender” to a hot little number performed on a lips-shaped couch to “Cherry Pie.” But the real centerpiece here is producer and performer Jennifer Romas, who steals the show with her bathtub set piece, an intoxicating blend of dance and acrobatics that would fit perfectly into Cirque du Soleil’s Zumanity. –Ken Miller Westgate Las Vegas, 10:30 p.m. Wed.Sat., $39.95-$59.95 VIP plus tax and fee, 18+. 800.222.5361 Lago panini photo by Big French KÀ photo by Christopher DeVargas Sexxy photo by Gabe Ginsberg

Light Up Your Life 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 Montecristo Cigar Bar at Caesars Palace. Divided into four areas, Montecristo 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. Guests can breathe easy with Montecristo’s state-of-the-art ventilation system that ensures the 4,000-square-foot space doesn’t get too overwhelmed. In the Library, relax while enjoying sports on the large video wall made up of nine screens; or take a seat at the bar to play some video poker. Before leaving pay a visit to the 400-square-foot walk-in humidor that can store up to 1,000 brands, including Romeo Y Julieta, H. Upmann, Padron and Montecristo.
And speaking of the finer things, what goes better with a cigar than whiskey or cognac? Enjoy a pour of Louis XIII served tableside in a crystal Riedel glass. –Kiko Miyasato

Mature Punks It may be hard to believe that a band with top-selling albums titled Enema of the State and Take Off Your Pants and Jacket could be described as “mature,” but over the more than two decades of its existence, Blink-182 has grown from a trio of snotty, immature punks into a trio of thoughtful, mature punks. Singer-songwriter and bassist Mark Hoppus is the one constant throughout all that time, guiding the band through some rough patches and into its current strong state, with Matt Skiba of pop-punk band Alkaline Trio joining Hoppus on vocals and guitar. Longtime drummer Travis Barker rounds out the current trio, which released album California recently. All Music called California “their best in 15 years,” and Rolling Stone agreed, calling it “the catchiest music they’ve made since 2001.” Lead single “Bored to Death” topped Billboard’s Alternative Songs chart, proving that even as they mature, Blink still reaches their core audience. They’ll do just that in Vegas, combining the snide hits of the past with a hardearned musical and personal maturity. –Josh Bell

Royal Treatment
Crossover Classics Some songs get into your head after you hear them. Such is the case with the Oscar-winning “Raindrops Keep Fallin’ On My Head” from Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, one of the many memorable tunes courtesy of B.J. Thomas. The talented artist may be best remembered for that hit, but he also topped the charts with “I Just Can’t Help Believing,” “Everybody’s Out of Town.” “No Love at All” and “Hooked on a Feeling.” And during the ’70s, country music became very important for him. Thomas was
actually one of the most popular country/ pop recording artists of that era, with hits such as “Don’t Worry Baby,” “Whatever Happened to Old-Fashioned Love” and “New Looks From an Old Lover.” According to Thomas, some of his songs, which have a positive note to them, were his way of trying to overcome some life issues he was having at the time. Now he is on tour and stopping in Las Vegas to share his songs and talent. –Penny Levin Golden Nugget, 8 p.m. July 22, starting at $19 plus tax and fee. 866.946.5336
Kink With a Wink It’s really a tale of empowerment. A young woman ready to set the world afire, or at least learn how to look hot in a dog collar. In 50 Shades! The Parody, three book club members take on a racy novel. Join them as they find Anastasia lamenting a lack in her life that leaves her so unfulfilled. It’s not long after they meet that Ana and her crush, Christian, sing and dance and discard their pants. Christian has a few kinks in the bedroom, and works them out in his Red Room of Pain. Will Ana join him long-term? It’s all by the book. –Nina King Bally’s, 9:30 p.m. Tues.-Sun., starting at $69 plus tax and fee, 18+. 702.777.2782

What to do in Camelot? Eat a lot—at the Steakhouse at Camelot (Excalibur, 702.597.7449). Prep your palate with Alaskan crab cocktail, black angus sliders or oysters “Rockefeller-style.” Soups are your scene? Choose the lobster bisque or French onion soup. Then comes the main event. Let’s talk surf—say, Maine lobster tail, halibut or ahi tuna. Let’s talk turf—say, prime rib, New York steak, ribeye, flat iron or filet mignon. Let’s talk … delish. –Steve Bornfeld
He’s Done It All There’s very little D.L. Hughley (The Orleans, 702.284.7777) hasn’t done. In addition to acting in everything from movies to television, Hughley has worked as a political commentator, talk show host, game show and award show host, and even appeared on Dancing With the Stars. But Hughley’s forte has always been his hilarious look at life, which touches all of the bases—much like his career. He performs in Las Vegas July 22-23. –Ken Miller

Pools are not just for daytime fun If you want a place to party, Las Vegas will provide. There are the nightclubs, the lounges, the ultra lounges, the bars and the dayclubs—but that wasn’t enough.

Giada brings star style to weekend brunch 44 7.17.16 LasVegasMagazine.com
An evening at Giada DeLaurentiis’ self-titled Italian restaurant in The Cromwell will undoubtedly leave you pleasantly full, with happy memories of each morsel. The Food Network star designed her restaurant to capture that California feel, both in decor and in interpretations of classic dishes and DeLaurentiis’ family recipes on a delightful dinner menu. But that’s not the only meal that Giada excels in. During brunch, which was recently expanded from Saturday and Sunday to Friday as well, ask to sit on the Stripside patio area, where you can peek across at the street scene. You’ll find a number of treasures on the menu, including the gnocchi pomodoro, a comforting dish of lovely

Sunrise polenta waffle
Lemon-ricotta cookie ice cream sandwiches

little dumplings in a savory sauce. The sunrise polenta waffle could give any day a happy outlook—two sunnyside-up eggs rest atop a crisp waffle, with pancetta, maple syrup, chives and a creamy bechamel. And the caprese frittata really satisfies, too. The lemon-pesto grilled cheese sandwich goes way beyond the staple. Heirloom tomatoes and those bright flavors make the panini-style sandwich incredibly good. The tasting menu might be the easiest way to experience the breadth of brunch’s offerings. Start with a beverage, of course, like the La Marca mimosas (with a bottomless option), or the nonalcoholic Dolce Vita—fresh orange, peach purée, elderflower tonic, club soda and
blood orange syrup. First on the table are a plate of pastries—the selection varies, but be assured it’s excellent. You might find a polenta muffin pretending to be simple, but it’s so darned good—way better than your average cornbread. The antipasti platter has three selections— eggs Benedict deviled eggs, a mini pizza di pasta and a crostini with a creamy spread. Prosciutto in the deviled eggs adds a roundness to each bite. The savory mini pizza di pasta, crispy on the outside, tender inside and topped with a mound of shredded cheese, would make an excellent main dish in and of itself. But if you tried that trick, you’d miss out on the baked sausage and eggplant—layers and layers of mild, mellow
goodness. Chicken and waffles gets an unusual twist with the addition of cacciatore sauce, and the salmon cake Benedict, a Giada signature dish, gives the classic egg dish a nice update. Those choices are sure to present a tough time when you’re ordering your main course. One of the nicest things about brunch has to be dessert, and Giada really delivers in that category. The fragrant, puffy limoncello soufflé comes with a scoop of buttermilk gelato. And a combination of raspberry and buttermilk gelato creates a gorgeous little bite when sandwiched inside Giada’s celebrated lemon-ricotta cookies. It all adds up to the perfect ending to a latemorning/early afternoon idyll.

Jessica Alvarez
Model cocktail server keeps it real Jessica Alvarez loves Las Vegas, but her heart will always belong to New York City. “I’m a New York girl at heart—100 percent. I gotta check myself sometimes,” she said, laughing. One can quickly tell after meeting the Liquid Pool Lounge’s model cocktail server that she’s from the Big Apple—she talks fast and you get the feeling she’ll tell it like it is. But you’ll also pick up that she’s friendly, outgoing and real. “Growing up in New York definitely gives you a lot of character and culture; but it also gave me a good work ethic,” Alvarez said. And that work ethic shines through when she’s helping her guests at Aria’s intimate day club. To date, Alvarez has a lot of experience in the industry. Since moving to Vegas more than
46 7.17.16 LasVegasMagazine.com
a decade ago, she’s worked at many of the city’s top nightclubs and day clubs. This is her first season at Liquid. “For me, the Vegas industry has created a lot of opportunity,” she explained. “I never thought it’d be this much fun, though. I’ve gotten to travel, meet people from all over, enjoy life.” But it’s not just Alvarez who’s enjoying life—she’s making sure her guests at Liquid are, too. “Its my job to make sure that everyone that comes in has a good time. I’m very informative—how can I help them, how can I assist,” Alvarez said. “It’s also important that I make sure everyone that walks through the door feels welcome. I like people. I like customer service. I like to make people happy.” –Kiko Miyasato
“What I like about Liquid is it’s intimate and people that come here, many are European, know what they want and they’re down to have a good time,” Alvarez said. The specialty cocktail menu’s quality libations help keep the party going and match the upscale experience of the day club. A popular pick, the Watermelon Cooler, blends Grey Goose vodka, Marie Brizard watermelon liqueur, fresh-squeezed lemon juice, simple syrup and club soda. –KM

Nothing But Net It’s the year’s top trend It is all about the net. I am sure you’ve seen those see-through netted numbers in stores recently and wondered, “What’s that?” Well, it is this year’s biggest trend. From netted tops to netted shoes, this is being worn from head to toe. It has been spotted in the spring/ summer collections of Marchesa, Alexander Wang, Proenza Schouler and Creatures of the Wind. Literally everywhere you look, there is a designer net to be caught in. The coolest way to make this trend work in this Las Vegas heat is pair a bralette with high-waisted bottoms under a mesh dress. Don’t want to be that revealing? Try a net top with bralette and a paper-bag waist short or a net skirt over a shorter skirt. The key is to be revealing without revealing. And remember: Stay classy, my friends. –Nicole Chandler

Legends in Concert tribute artists dish on transforming into superstars By Steve Bornfeld Photos by Christopher DeVargas Melodically declaring that he needs your body, baby, from dusk till dawn (and your, muah, muah, muah, muah, muah, Kiss), Frank Moore—aka Prince—asks the crowd: “Ya’ll havin’ a good time? I hope so because I’m baking like a meatloaf under this wig.” Fortunately, he’s got a shaved head cooling his cranium below that copious mop. Speaking of artificial accoutrements atop the noggin … Beneath a blonde mass of hair weave, shortly after melodically declaring that she lives for the applause, applause, applause, she lives for the applause-plause, Katie Steele—aka Lady Gaga—stops to query whether we doubt she qualifies as a “legend.” Don’t we know she was the first musician to score Oscar, Grammy and Super Bowl gigs in the same year? “I think that makes me a legend in the making,” she boasts, her nasally honk and deliberate delivery evoking the star herself. At tribute production Legends in Concert, faux-fame is the name of the game. These two play with consummate skill. 52 7.17.16 LasVegasMagazine.com
Prince smolders from an Entertainment Weekly cover propped on the dressing room table, inspiring the hourlong transformation from Frank Moore to the sadly late—but culturally, surely eternal—Prince Rogers Nelson. Behold the tools of the tribute trade: foundation, lipsticks, eyeliners, blush, powder, purple eyeshadow and makeup brushes. Hanging nearby: sequined shirt, sparkly trench coats, platform boots and twin wigs (the luxuriously haired ’80s and shortercropped ’early-aughts). “When I started I looked like ghetto Prince: bad wig, not enough makeup, bad eyeliner, a moustache drawn on with a pencil,” says Moore. “Then I started working with drag queens who gave me tips.” Adjustments include contouring his nose. “There’s like a little ball on the top part of his nose,” he says. “Prince’s eyes have a shadow mine don’t have, so I paint that on. My lips are not as pouty and full, so I draw over my lip with a lip liner pencil.”

After sketching the outline of Prince’s moustache with black eyeliner, Moore fills in “hairs” with liquid liner. Next comes the Prince jawline—smoother than his morechiseled feature, so Moore softens it with black eyeshadow. “Otherwise,” he says, “I’d look like Dudley Do-Right Prince.” Black lipstick creates the sideburns, and lip liner adds the Prince cheek mole. Moore plies the sartorial trick, minimizing the height gap between the 5-foot-2-inch legend and his 5-foot-6-inch doppelganger: larger sizes. “People used to say I looked like Prince on steroids so I try to look as small as I can onstage.” Draped now in a glittery gownstyle coat, Moore runs a hand over the black-and-silver sequins that flip to gold under his touch. “When I put the wig on is when I really look like him,” Moore says, affixing it to his shaved dome, which gives way to a Princely brunette wave. “There you go—Prince!” * * * * * She’s holding up that green thing—a copy of a Swarovski crystal-studded leotard with heart-shaped shoulder pads that made a splash at the 2010 Grammy Awards, which Steele will don in 90 minutes as Katie becomes Lady. “It’s like wearing small toddlers on each shoulder,” Steele says. “And platform shoes. I had to take out extra insurance when I started wearing them.” She’s kidding. We think. “Here’s the bubble dress,” she says, gathering up the outfit that clacks as hard plastic orbs bang about. “I wear clear hooker heels with this that are 7 inches high.” Yet this costume is worn only for the finale bow. “It becomes a liability when you try to dance in it.” Inhabiting the persona of Lady Gaga, one of pop culture’s leading provocateurs, has been the 54 7.17.16 LasVegasMagazine.com
challenge since 2011 for Steele. Re-creating Gaga, a 45-minute process, requires major makeup tricks. “Gaga has massive Italian features. Katie Steele has smaller, Swedish features,” says Steele, who significantly enlarges them— making the eyes bigger and wider, the lips larger and longer, and contouring the chin. “I think our noses are similar but I still have to contour because (Gaga) got a bunch of nose jobs. If I could get her paycheck for a month I could do the same.” Cue the whacked-out costumes, plus a stockpile of hair weave—“you have no idea how much money I’ve spent on weave,” she says—and voila!: Lady Gaga. One caveat: “We don’t have the meat dress—it’s too hot in Vegas,” Steele says. “It’s in the freezer.” She’s kidding. We think. * * * * * Prince videos unspool as Moore—wailing on a replica of Prince’s signature cloud guitar— runs through “Little Red Corvette,” “1999,” “Let’s Go Crazy,” “Purple Rain,” “I Would Die 4 You” and “Kiss.” Striding Prince-like across the stage, Moore executes a leg split a la His Purpleness and cracks: “I hope you saw that because I’m not doing it again.” Once Moore departs, videos of Gaga stream onscreen as Steele— wriggling in a beige and silver bustier, fringes spinning around her hips—tackles a set bouncing through “Applause,” “Just Dance,” John Lennon’s “Imagine,” “The Edge of Glory,” “Poker Face” and “Born This Way.” During the segment she segues into a pristine white gown, and then That Green Thing, abetted by a bejeweled red eye mask. Striking a pose, she lets a wave of “Woohoos!” wash over her. Faux fame’s the name of this game. This is how you play it. LasVegasMagazine.com 7.17.16

The Golden Age
If you’ve been longing to throw your hands in the air and wave them like you just don’t care, The Art of Rap Fest (Downtown Las Vegas Events Center, 702.388.2111) is the place where you can say, “Oh yeah!” Sponsored by Backspin, the July 23 festival promises a night that will have fans reliving the golden era of rap. The incendiary Public Enemy headlines with social commentary from Chuck D, currently
enjoying a resurgence in popularity due to side project Prophets of Rage, and the man who made giant hanging clocks fashionable, Flavor Flav. Mount Rushmore of Rap members The Sugarhill Gang, pictured, will test you to see if you know every lyric of “Rapper’s Delight.” Other acts include the twice-reunited rock ’n’ roll-sampling rhyming duo EPMD, OG Furious Five members Grandmaster Melle Mel
and Scorpio, and one of the East Coast’s finest tandems, Mobb Deep. But perhaps the block party will hit its highest points when Kurtis Blow and his crew teach you “The Breaks” and how to play “Basketball” or when Naughty By Nature brings its slew of New Jersey ’90s hip-hop hits to the stage. Yes, on this night, everyone will be “down with OPP.” –Jason Harris

THE KATS REPORT
Around Town John Katsilometes is an awardwinning columnist who has been covering the city since 1996, and has been the author of The Kats Report since 2009. Visit his blog at LasVegasSun.com.
Who-What-Where Criss Angel certainly draws a vastly disparate collection of stars: Gary Oldman, Flavor Flav, Tony Orlando and Lance Burton, who all attended the world premiere of Angel’s Mindfreak Live! at Luxor, have been friends of his for years.
Khloe Kardashian and Trey Songz got cozy at Topgolf at MGM Grand. Kevin Hart was one busy guy recently. In less than a week, he was spotted partying at Chateau Nightclub & Rooftop at Paris, Omnia at Caesars Palace, Jewel at
Aria, 1 OAK at The Mirage and Topgolf at MGM Grand. Whew! Steven Tyler took in a performance of The Beatles LOVE at The Mirage, meeting with the cast after. Buffalo Bills running back LeSean McCoy partied at Chateau Nightclub at Paris.
Brooks muses on residency What would it take for Garth Brooks to return to a Strip residency, a la his 2009-’14 stint at Steve Wynn’s Encore? Say, The Park Theater? That venue is slated to open by year’s end, with officials seeking top artists to perform residencies in the 5,300-seat venue. “Jim Collins wrote the book called Good to Great, one of my favorites, and the whole essence is that you need to get the right people on the bus,” Brooks said during a local session with media at the T-Mobile Arena, where he performed in June. “That’s what makes it fun. If these other people are as nice as Steve Wynn, can make a handshake deal and stand behind it, then I’d be interested to meet with them.”

Billionaire Bill Foley, who paid $500 million to bring the National Hockey League to Las Vegas in 2017, said he’s serious about the team being a world-class competitor almost immediately. “Yes, we are going to bring a really competitive team to the ice,” Foley said. “We’re going to be very serious about that. This is not going to be a 10-year program. The future is now. We’re going to win right away.” Lorena Peril has returned for her second run as singer in Fantasy at Luxor, having embarked on a global adventure that saw her front the European tour of Grease and co-headline a cabaret show in Mexico with her husband, Ray Jon Narbaitz. “I know it will be fun,” Peril says. “That’s what I’ve missed, really, is the family atmosphere of the show. The support ... from everyone has been great.” Opening with a medley anchored by “C.C. Rider” and “Viva Las Vegas,” Wayne Newton’s performance in Up Close & Personal at Windows Showroom at Bally’s settles into a wondrous storytelling session. Often joined onstage by his wife, Kathleen, Mr. Las Vegas recalls some of the highlights of his legendary life and career. The loose format means you don’t get the same show twice.
