I saw her standing there ’80s teen queen Tiffany at Resorts Jan. 28

The queen of mall pop singers has grown up. Tiffany will perform at Boogie Nights in Resorts Casino Hotel on Jan. 28. Tiffany rose to iconic teen queen status in the late 1980s with hits such as the cover of Tommy James’ “I Think We’re Alone Now,� “Could’ve Been� and a revamping of The Beatles’ early hit, “I Saw Her Standing There.� She set a record as the youngest female artist to top the Billboard charts for a debut album selling more than 4.1 million copies. She made a mark with her tour of shopping malls across the country called “The Beautiful You: Celebrating the Good Life Shopping Mall Tour ’87.�

The tour kicked off at the Bergen Mall in Paramus, N.J. “We are thrilled to have Tiffany appear in Boogie Nights,â€? said Courtney Birmingham, Resorts director of advertising and public relations. “She is the perfect ďŹ t for Atlantic City’s ultimate ’70s and ’80s club and ďŹ ts in with Resorts theme of the weekend celebrating two great decades of entertainment.â€? Tiffany has been busy in the new millennium, becoming popular in both Europe and among the gay community. In 2005, she released “Dust Off and Dance,â€? loaded with dance tunes such as “Ride It,â€? “Fly,â€? “Be With U Tonite,â€? “Na Na Naâ€? and “ArtiďŹ cial Girlfriend.â€?

She also dabbled in low-budget movies. In 2009, Tiffany completed work on her ďŹ rst feature ďŹ lm, the psychological thriller “Necrosis,â€? about a group of friends trapped in a cabin during a blizzard. “Necrosisâ€? premiered at the 2009 Cannes Film Festival. She also starred in “The Asylumâ€? and the sci-ďŹ ďŹ lm “Mega Piranha.â€? Along with fellow ’80s teen sensation Deborah Gibson, Tiffany will star in the Syfy Network original movie “Mega Python vs. Gatoroid,â€? set for release this year. The singer will also participate as a presenter in the 2011 AC Weekly Nightlife Awards on Jan. 27 at Boogie Nights, along with the group Pretty

Poison. The band, which hit the charts years ago with “Catch Me I’m Falling,� will debut its new single “No Limits,� an ode to Atlantic City. Boogie Nights dance club features a regular lineup of celebrity impersonators, including Michael Jackson, Madonna and Prince. It also showcases characters such as Mr. Boogie, Roller Girl and Dee Dee Rivera. ■$, + "" && ' $ ) %% )( $ (%')( ( $% %) " % ' + "! %%'( %& $ ) & # %* ' ' ( %' #%' $ %'# ) %$ "" %' * ( ) ' (%')( %#

‘Boardwalk Empire,’ Buscemi win awards No stranger to Atlantic City, Philadelphia-bred actor Kevin Bacon mentioned Atlantic City in his brief synopsis of “Boardwalk Empireâ€? before handing the HBO show the award for Best Television Series, Drama at Sunday’s Golden Globe Awards. “Boardwalk Empireâ€? beat out “Dexter,â€? “The Good Wife,â€? “Mad Menâ€? and “The Walking Dead.â€? Among the collective on stage to accept the award were actor Mark Wahlberg, who ďŹ rst saw the possibilities of a series when he read the non-ďŹ ction book of the same name written by South Jersey author Nelson Johnson, and series creator and writer Terence Winter. The series, which focuses on corruption in Prohibition-era Atlantic City, also scored a Golden Globe for Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series, Drama for Steve Buscemi, who plays Nucky Thompson. The Thompson character is based on real-life political boss Nucky Johnson, who ran the city throughout the 1920s and beyond. Buscemi beat out Bryan Cranston of “Breaking Bad,â€? Michael C. Hall of “Dexter,â€? Jon Hamm of “Mad Menâ€? and Hugh Laurie of “Houseâ€? for the award. “I hope to do this for years and years and years,â€? Buscemi said in his acceptance speech. HBO has ordered a second season of the series. The show received another nomination for Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role in a Series, Mini-Series or Motion Picture Made for Television. But Kelly Macdonald, who plays the ďŹ ctitious Margaret Schroeder, Buscemi’s love interest, lost to heavy favorite Jane Lynch of “Glee.â€? â– Steve Buscemi, Paz de la Huerta star in HBO’s ‘Boardwalk Empire.’ | Gannett, Abbot Genser/HBO/File

You want Mohr?

Movies. Television. Stand-up. Books. Jay Mohr knows how to multitask. He brings the stand-up element to Borgata’s Music Box Feb. 4. Mohr, who rose to movie acclaim as a sports agent in the blockbuster hit “Jerry Maguire,â€? has based part of his act on what critics say are his dead-pan impressions of Christopher Walken, Al Pacino, Robert DeNiro, Jerry Seinfeld, Norm MacDonald, and even Tracy Morgan. “Why a show or an act has yet to be developed around this particular skill is beyond me, but I would pay hardcore cash to see him go up against a slew of lukewarm hacks ‌ any day,â€? said Benny Gammerman on entertainment website ology.com. A performance last year at the Wilbur Theatre in Boston drew this online review from a fan: “A real oldschool comedian who deďŹ nitely gives the paying audience their money’s worth. Jay covered old, new and everything in between. I’ll be on the lookout for his next show.â€? Among his many television appearances, Mohr starred in the sitcom “Gary Unmarriedâ€? from 2008 to 2010. Prior to that, he co-starred in “The Ghost Whispererâ€? from 2006 to 2008. On the big screen, he appeared in both drama and comedy ďŹ lms such as Clint Eastwood’s “Hereafter,â€? “The Adventures of Pluto Nash,â€? “Are We There Yet,â€? “Pay It Forward,â€? “Go,â€? “200 Cigarettes,â€? “Playing by Heart,â€? “Picture Perfectâ€? and “Suicide Kings.â€? Last May, Mohr shared his hilarious stories of fatherhood in his second book, “No Wonder My Parents Drank: Tales from a Stand-Up Dad.â€? It’s a tale of modern fatherhood told in an irreverent yet charmingly heartfelt voice. Publisher’s Weekly says Mohr, who starred on “Saturday Night Liveâ€? and was a producer for “Last Coming Standing,â€? knows how to be

funny, but was as clueless as everyone else when it came to parenthood. Hence the book. “There aren’t any do-overs. You learn on the y and do the best you can,â€? he said in the book. “Even so, Mohr makes it abundantly clear that, despite some mistakes, he has enjoyed every minute of being a parent to his son, Jackson, and he mines it here for comedy gold,â€? says the Publisher’s Weekly review. “Mohr’s dead-on insights and sharp observations ring true regarding serious issues like spanking and step-parenting, as well as lighter subjects like his son’s ďŹ rst haircut. Mohr also ďŹ nds pointed humor in unhappy topics, like his attempt to have another child with his second wife. He’s more than candid about his lousy swimmers. Mohr’s stand-up sensibility is occasionally trumped by his love for his son, but even then he stays honest and engaging.â€? His ďŹ rst book, “Gasping for Airtime,â€? published in 2004 and was a darkly funny, brutally honest memoir of his two years in the trenches as a writer and featured performer on “Saturday Night Live.â€? A frequent guest on The Opie and Anthony Show on satellite radio, Mohr is also well-known for his sports work as host of Fox Sports Net’s “NFL This Morningâ€? and narrator of the award-winning “Beyond the Glory.â€? Additionally, Mohr executive produced and hosted the ESPN series “Mohr Sports,â€? an original weekly comedy/music/sports talk hour. â–

2 slots players win more than $4M at Borgata Sunday was really, really lucky for two New York gamblers at Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa. Each hit progressive jackpots on different Wheel of Fortune machines, winning more than $4 million. That kind of luck has only happened ďŹ ve times in the Atlantic City market since 1997. “This is one of those cases where lightening struck twice for two of our customers on the same day and with the same type of machine,â€? said Joe Lupo, Borgata’s senior vice president of operations. “We couldn’t be hap-

pier for our winners. We’ve always said that Borgata is a lucky place to play.â€? Both winners chose to remain anonymous. The bigger of the two jackpots came on a penny Wheel of Fortune Special Edition game, which paid almost $3.5 million. The hit ranks among the largest penny jackpots in Atlantic City. The last time someone won a jackpot on a penny Wheel of Fortune was in May 2008. The second jackpot was later on a 50-cent Wheel of Fortune machine and paid more than $700,000. â–

Mr. Cupcakes is coming to town.

Johnny Manganiotis, who operates Mr. Cupcakes in Clinton, will engage guests Jan. 27 in the art of creating cupcakes and pairing them with wine. The pairing and baking demonstration takes place at the Viking Cooking School in Harrah’s Resort. Guests will be able to enjoy the unique avors of Cupcake Vineyards wine and the sweet samplings of desserts created by Mr. Cupcakes himself. “I actually just started pairing wine and cupcakes together not too long ago,â€? he said. “After participating in some events with Cupcake Vine-

yards, I thought it would be a good experiment for me and if I succeeded they might actually sell in my stores.� Manganiotis launched his bakery in 2007 at age 22. He has since opened two more locations with more on the horizon. In addition to The Food Network’s “Cupcake Wars,� he has been featured on a number of television and radio shows and in publications such as The New York Times. New Jersey Monthly selected his shop as having the best cupcakes. The pairing isn’t as easy as it might sound. Sweets often overshadow the taste of wine. “I didn’t want the cake to overpower the

wine, so I used Cupcake Vineyards red velvet wine and it was the perfect combination,� he said. At the Viking school, Manganiotis will be making his red wine cupcake with a chocolate ganache topping. All the guests will be able to ice their own cupcake. ■* -) $ + /#%% &(' +,* , (($#'! -) $ + ' ) #*#'! ," & /#," /#' *(&

Yippee ki-yay, pardner. And happy trails, too, as Boardwalk Hall gets ready to host a live rodeo for three days in April. The Atlantic City Boardwalk Rodeo, a Professional Rodeo Cowboy Association sanctioned event, promises to bring the biggest rodeo to the East Coast in the past 70 years. With more than two-anda-half hours of action, the rodeo will feature bareback, tie down and team roping events, as well as saddle bronc, steer wrestling, barrel racing and bull riding contests. The competitions will take place from one end of the arena to the other. The rodeo will offer a prize purse at $56,000 for participants. “This three-day event will bring thousands of vendors, competitors and fans into Atlantic City, and we will have the opportunity to showcase all of the city’s unique and stellar attributes,� said Dennis C. Gomes, head of Resorts Casino Hotel. “The rodeo is a real coup for Atlantic City, and a relationship that we hope will continue into the future.� This event is a direct result of Atlantic City Mayor Lorenzo Langford’s Strategic Planning Committee led by Gomes,

special events committee chairperson. In addition to Resorts, the other casinos are also on board: Atlantic City Hilton, Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa, Caesars Entertainment, Tropicana Casino & Resort and Trump Entertainment. “The rodeo promises to bring a fresh, new event to the city, continuing to broaden our appeal among new audiences,� said Langford.

Get in on hockey action Sunday The Trenton Devils come to Boardwalk Hall Sunday to take on the Wheeling Nailers. The Eastern Conference Hockey League afďŹ liate for the New Jersey Devils will battle its Pittsburgh Penguins afďŹ liate at 4 p.m. The game is the next in a series of winter ice hockey games in Atlantic City featuring farm clubs of the Devils. Before the start of the game, fans can meet New Jersey Devils alumnus Grant Marshall. A former right winger, Marshall is an inspiration to all with his remarkable story of recovery from a severe neck injury that he suffered while playing junior hockey. He went on to become a member of two Stanley Cup champion teams in the National Hockey League. Arrive early to meet Grant in person and get his autograph. Doors open at 3 p.m. With admission to the game, visitors can enter to win a four-night getaway to the Gran Caribe Real Resort Cancun, courtesy of Berman Travel. This vacation also includes two round-trip airline tickets on AirTran Airways. During intermission, fans can enjoy Mites on Ice (squirt divisions) with the Atlantic City Sharks playing the Brick Hockey Club or try their luck at Chuck A Puck. The Trenton Devils (formerly known as the Trenton Titans) are a team in North America’s premier “AAâ€? hockey league, the ECHL. The Devils play their home games at Sun National Bank Center in Trenton. Since its inception in 1999, Trenton has become one of hockey’s best developmental programs, with more than a dozen former players going on to play in the NHL. The team won the 2005 Kelly Cup Playoff series against Florida enroute to the ECHL Championship.
