You don’t know what to feel. You’re looking down at the seat that matches the number on your ticket in your hand, and you cop a squat on that bad boy as the lights start to go down. The air is warm with excitement. You don’t know what you’re going to see, you just know its gonna be good…

Wouldn’t just be great if you could get that kinda vibe every time you go out? It’s no wonder Mystère by Cirque du Soleil set its stage in the entertainment capital of the world, Las Vegas. Its visual orgasm of exploding excitement just tantalizes your mind. The show is jam packed with explosive acrobatics and acts to entice your eyes and keep you on the edge of your seat. I can’t even begin to explain the feeling that takes over your body as you intently witness these feats that seem inhumanly possible or that just blatantly defy the laws of

The anticipation of having the chance to spend a day at ARIA Spa in Las Vegas was more exciting than my actual arrival into the city. The spa is located in one of the most visually appealing and sexy architectural structures that I have seen. Positioned in the City Centre, it is also surrounded by some of the most luxurious stores. As I entered ARIA, I was instantly amazed by its brightness, beautiful design, and pleasant staff. I quickly shopped at the boutique—strategically located at the front entrance of the 80,000-square-foot structure—available to spa and salon visitors.

After registering my name at the front desk, I was then asked to proceed to the elevator across from the concierge. As I passed the...

As I entered the SAXE Theatre to a sold-out, mixed crowd of young and mature viewers, I was unsure what “Vegas! The Show” would have in store for me for the remainder of the night. But to my pleasant surprise, I was instantly captivated and amused by the group of dancers, entertainers, magicians, and showgirls—outfitted in beautiful attire adorned with Swarovski crystals—who all wowed the audience. “Vegas! The Show” can be viewed as a tribute to some of the most talented and well-known artists who helped to put Las Vegas on the map—from the Rat Pack to Elton John.
I was especially impressed by the performance of two identical-twin male tap dancers as they easily captivated the audience. Their choreographed tap-dance number performed with such skill and ease had me daydreaming of the 50s. And the talented performers...

V-The Ultimate Variety show's purpose is to strictly entertain, and provide insight on Las Vegas and the early days. The show consists of a series of acts; from talented musicians, singers, dancers and a magician. Wally Eastwood, the shows highly energized and entertaining host, uses his high energy juggling routines to entice and energize the crowd of all ages. V surely does not disappoint, as dancers are thrown into the air, while some widely celebrated and popular acts use balance and strength to show their talent. I was pleasantly surprised that V did not need the six set changes, or millions of dollars worth of pyro techniques throughout the show to make it the great show that it is.

Not only does V-The variety show entertain, but you will feel almost a sense of great admiration for all of the performers, artist and celebrities who made Vegas what it is today.

If I said, “David Spade was in my living room last night,” most people would think I was referring to watching him act in one of his popular shows from my favorite couch. After 15 years of the comedian on Saturday Night Live, Just Shoot Me!, and, most recently, Rules of Engagement, as well as in countless movies such as Tommy Boy, Black Sheep, Grandma’s Boy, and Grownups, you can’t blame them from simply imagining my taking in reruns of his shows or a DVD of one of his films. But I’m referring to seeing him in the setting of the Venetian Showroom.

Spade’s recent stint from November 5-6 in 2010 in the intimacy of The Venetian’s theatre, marked by his laid-back demeanor, made me feel like I was chillin’ with a buddy from the comfortable confines of my home. But don’t get me wrong—Spade is no ordinary buddy. His act, made famous by his trademark sarcasm, will and can attack anything.

In a city that never sleeps and many legendary entertainers have called home, there is one that stands alone, Elvis Presley. Viva Elvis, the newest Cirque du Soleil masterpiece, located in the Aria Resort Hotel and Casino, takes you through a breath-taking journey of the "King of Rock and Roll's" life. As if you had stepped into a time machine, Elvis's voice echos throughout the theater seranading you, leaving you feeling breathless. Viva Elvis embraces some of the most important moments of Elvis's life, recreating them on stage by blending some of his most memorable songs with artistic expressions of air-defying acrobatics and dance numbers that will have you girls wanting to put on your poodle skirts and hit the local swing joint.

The requirements for most clubs are quite simple: First you have your music, then your attractive women and attractive men, then your liquid courage to keep everyone’s “mojo” going all night long, and then your fifty-foot waterfall…WHAT?! This is Las Vegas, people, and out here you must crush the competition with the most outlandish attractions that leave your “clubbers” picking their bottom lips up off the ground. Let’s face it: The club scene is always going to be saturated with beautiful people, and you want them over at your club. What better way to attract these people than to create a remarkable atmosphere in which the great outdoors and the elegance of the interior design are married perfectly, resulting in one of the greatest clubbing experiences?

This alluring and sultry casino brings a perfect fusion of high-life culture and the “who’s who” feeling directly to the heart of the Vegas strip. Conveniently set in the epicenter of the hustle and bustle of the city, Planet Hollywood is located where you really want to be.

Along with a prime location and a variety of shops, the casino provides some of the most recognizable restaurants associated with the stars of Hollywood, such as Pink’s Hotdogs, a personal favorite of mine. And while giving their customers some of the familiar tastes of a hometown meal, these restaurants really do make you feel as if you’re rubbing elbows with celebrities, or at least in an environment where such things could happen.
