NOTES
UPCOMING Come back soon!
From the Editor A game changer
I recently got the pleasure and privilege of attending the opening-night ceremonies at the T-Mobile Arena, Las Vegas’ newest multipurpose venue that promises to bring in hot acts, sporting events and much, much more. (Country “king” George Strait plays this week.) Simply put, the 20,000-plus-seat arena is a stunning achievement, from layout to amenities to the performance area itself—no matter where you sit, you will enjoy great sight lines. The event itself was about as “Vegas” as you can get. Mr. Las Vegas himself, Wayne Newton, was the warm-up act, performing all his hits and playing no fewer than four instruments. Then Las Vegas-based band The Killers brought down the house, welcoming on stage not only Newton but also surprise guests the Blue Man Group and Dan Reynolds of Imagine Dragons, another supergroup that got its start in Sin City. I also got a look at another amazing facet of the T-Mobile Arena: Hyde Lounge, which hovers above the performance hall, offering panoramic views of not only the stage but the crowd, all in plush comfort. Trust me, this will quickly become one of the “must-visit” spots in Las Vegas. But it’s not just the arena you’ll be talking and Instagramming about once you visit—The Park, nestled nicely amid the arena, Monte Carlo and New York-New York, offers plenty to do and see, from the “Bliss Dance” sculpture to restaurants like Sake Rok and Beerhaus. Let the next phase of Las Vegas begin!

liked that name and suggested NOFX. I said, “It sounds just like Negative FX.” They said, “No, it’s different.” In fairness, I didn’t have any better ideas. I wanted to call us The Banned, but it was two against one. I thought, “Whatever … it’s not like it’s something I’m going to have to live with for the rest of my life.” When I started Fat Wreck Chords in the early ’90s … I asked my dad to cosign a bank loan for $20,000. … He may not have had faith in me, but he did loan me the money. And when The Longest Line recouped, and I offered to pay the loan in full, he told me not to worry about it. It’s funny, if I had been broke I’m sure he would’ve held the debt over my head forever, but because I was actually making money it was no big deal.
A Few Words With Fat Mike
The NOFX veteran talks about his storied career in band bio Few band biographies take as honest and unflinching an approach as NOFX: The Hepatitis Bathtub and Other Stories. Alternately funny, harrowing, insightful and violent, the book draws on author Jeff Alulis’ interviews with the punk band’s bassist Fat Mike, guitarists Eric Melvin and Aaron Abeyta (El Hefe), and drummer Erik “Smelly” Sandlin to push the narrative as well as reveal details about the band to fans—and to each other. They play April 18 at the House of Blues at Mandalay Bay. The following excerpts are from Alulis’ interviews in the book with bandleader and Fat Wreck Chords record label co-founder Fat Mike. –Matt Kelemen
24 4.17.15 4.17.16 LasVegasMagazine.com
Southern California has produced some of the best music and the most famous legends in punk history. … … It was, and still is, the biggest punk scene in the world. But if the ’80s L.A. scene was known for one thing above all else, it was violence. It’s funny how some of us romanticize that era. I guess that’s because it was so fun and exciting … to those of us who managed to keep our original teeth. I got a call from out of nowhere from a guy named Steve … Erik had passed him my number and told him I played bass, so he asked if I wanted to jam with him and a few friends. I showed
up to rehearsal and met the drummer Dylan, and the guitarist, Eric Melvin. … Steve quit after the first practice. We played our instrumental songs at a house party within a few weeks, and Dylan quit soon after that. Melvin and I hit it off famously though, and asked Erik Sandin to join us as drummer. We agreed to rehearse on his side of town to seal the deal. His dad had a plumbing workshop near their house where we could make a ton of noise. We called ourselves NOFX. … I’ve always hated that name. It was a rip-off of a Boston band called Negative FX that had recently broken up. Eric and Erik
Smiley recommended his friend Aaron Abeyta … … I suggested a Mexican-sounding name, like “El Jefe.” I don’t speak Spanish, so I didn’t realize the “h” sound is usually spelled with a “j.” You would think Aaron would know that, having been raised by Mexicans, but it turns out he speaks less Spanish than my daughter did at age 6 after hanging out with the nanny all day. I was never all that driven to have a kid … … but Duncan from Snuff told me it was a kind of love I could never otherwise understand. He said you can love your family, you can love your wife, but nothing comes close to the love of your own children. That love sounded like something I wouldn’t want to miss, and when I finally experienced it I discovered that Duncan was telling the truth.

Night of Delight
For an evening of great wine and a delicious dinner, look to Giada at The Cromwell, where each month a wine pairing dinner features a different winery. On April 20 from 6-9 p.m., Joseph Phelps Vineyards takes the co-starring role in the multicourse meal. Joseph Phelps’ president Bill Phelps (the second generation of the Phelps family at the decades-old winery) hosts. Cost for the dinner is $200, and in addition to an excellent evening, guests receive an autographed photo of Giada De Laurentiis and recipes to try out at home. Reserve your spot by calling 702.731.7778.
Eat, Drink and Drag
Last year, Señor Frog’s introduced the Drag Brunch at its Manhattan Times Square location, and this year the wildly popular event now comes to Vegas on April 23. Hosting the inaugural event at Señor Frog’s inside Treasure Island are RuPaul’s Drag Race alums Coco Montrese, Shangela and Yara Sofia, along with Las Vegas drag queens. Guests get over-the-top entertainment throughout the brunch, with both solo and ensemble performances. “The show centers around production numbers and comedy routines,” said producer Brandon Voss. The drag extravaganza kicks off at noon and ticket prices include food and unlimited cocktails until 4 p.m. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit vossevents.com.

April is considered as perhaps the best weather month in Las Vegas, with temps in the high 70s and low 80s.
One question
Carrot Top What do you remember most about Garry Shandling, who died March 24? If you asked me who is on my top-five list of all-time greatest comedians, Garry Shandling makes the cut every time. Which is one of many reasons his death was such an unfortunate loss. I first experienced Garry’s unique style in my early 20s, just getting into my own career, watching him on It’s Garry Shandling’s Show and later on his groundbreaking The Larry Sanders Show. To this day that’s some of the funniest material I’ve ever seen. There was something about the way Garry could deliver a joke; he would walk onstage and instantly you could tell he was going to be funny. His mannerisms, his expressiveness and especially the cadence in which he spoke. He was brilliant. That’s why I was so nervous the first night I met him. I was performing on Leno and Jay told me Garry was the lead guest. I have one particularly crass and probably insensitive joke involving a plate for bulimics (I guess you had to be there). I’ll never forget, after my performance, Garry came over, shook my hand, and told me how much he loved it. It was always such an honor to know that we were mutual fans of each other. His originality and creativity will be sorely missed and the world, a little less funny without him. Carrot Top performs at Luxor. Performances are 8 p.m. Wed.-Mon. Call 702.262.4400 for tickets.

Magical Moments Famously, he appeared to make the Statue of Liberty vanish. Is that any way for a gentleman to treat a Lady (Liberty)? Nifty, though, right? Nothing so immense unfolds at David Copperfield’s Las Vegas show, but expect an evening of invention and imagination by the magic man with the matinee-idol looks. Constantly updating, Copperfield brings his show in line with the social media age, performing illusions involving email and Twitter. License plates, a duck and an animatronic alien all enter into the entertainment. Things materialize and dematerialize. Correct predictions leave the crowd stumped, and they’ll leave you stumped, too.

Ringing in Success Rock and roll has a history of deliberate misspellings, with bands like Mötley Crüe, Def Leppard, Led Zeppelin, Limp Bizkit and many more changing up the basic words that make up their names. Other than an interestingly spelled name, Scottish indie-pop band Chvrches (pronounced “churches”) doesn’t have much in common with its syntactically challenged forbears. The band’s moody, synth-driven music, reminiscent of ’80s acts like Depeche Mode and New Order, is led by singer Lauren Mayberry’s ethereal vocals, backed up by Iain Cook and Martin Doherty. Cook and Doherty both put in time with influential indie-rock bands (Cook in Aerogramme and The Unwinding Hours, Doherty in The Twilight Sad) before hooking up with Mayberry in 2011. The band’s 2013 debut album, The Bones of What You Believe, ended up on numerous end-of-year best-of lists and made the top 10 on the album charts in the band’s native Scotland. The most recent Chvrches album, last year’s Every Open Eye, was similarly critically acclaimed and even more commercially successful, making the top 10 on the Billboard album charts in the U.S. All Music called it “an almost uncannily well-crafted second album.” –Josh Bell

Socially Conscious The Rich, Delicious Life In a nod to Michael Mina’s StripSteak tradition, every meal begins with a complimentary duck fat fry trio. While each style comes with a dipping sauce, mix things up by pairing the Old Bay version with the truffle aioli allocated to the truffle fries. The flavors are a hint of what awaits. StripSteak’s American wagyu rib cap is as good a cut as you’ll encounter. The rib cap is a smoky testament to the magnificence of meat as it melts in your mouth;

you’re welcome for the introduction to your new favorite. Steakhouses are commonly judged on the strength of their sides, and StripSteak’s riffs on the standards are certainly worthy. Unctuous mac and cheese is an umami bomb with black truffle, cheesy potato gratin is flush with smoked gouda and buttery potato purées include a rich lobster rendition that’s sure to make your cardiologist cower. –Jim Begley
In a time where social media runs everything, Yo Gotti picked the right time (2015) to release “Down in the DM,” his first No. 1 hit on Billboard’s Mainstream R&B/Hip-Hop airplay chart. To add more fire, Yo Gotti enlisted Nicki Minaj for the remix. But this isn’t his first claim to fame—Yo Gotti’s been in the music game since 1996. That long career makes the title for his fifth album, this year’s The Art of Hustle, really fit. This weekend, Yo Gotti takes the stage at Foxtail nightclub, performing his famed ode to social media and more. –Chanelle Hayes SLS Las Vegas, 10:30 p.m. April 22, cover charge applies, 21+. 702.761.7619

Between a Whip and a Hard Place It’s really a tale of empowerment, isn’t it? A young woman on a journey of self-exploration, 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 popular racy novel, and along the way discard the bonds they’ve been experiencing in their own mundane lives. Join the ladies as they find Anastasia on her college graduation day, lamenting a lack in her life that leaves her soooooo unfulfilled. It’s not long after meeting that she and her huge crush, Christian, sing and dance and discard their pants. Thank goodness Christian has his workout gear on, avoiding total nudity and showing off his extremely, extremely (extremely) well-toned stomach muscles to an awestruck Ana, and explaining through song his physical interests (rhymes with duck).
Bally’s, 7:30 p.m. Tues.Sun., 9:30 p.m. Tues.-Sun. (starting April 19), starting at $69 plus tax and fee, 18+. 702.777.2782
Christian has a few kinks in the bedroom, and he works them out in his Red Room of Pain, with feather dusters, dog collars, whips and chains. He’d really like a friend to join him, a friend who’ll sign a massive contract detailing what can and cannot be done in the hallowed hall. More musical numbers follow, with support from the leather

strap-clad cast, and the book club gals, who take Anastasia and Christian’s lessons to heart. Will Christian help Ana fill the huge hole inside her? Of course he will! No sad endings here, just a sweet story of a boy, a girl and their sado/masochistic tendencies. That’s something we can all get behind. –Nina King

Heated Moments Keeping the Flavor Fresh At Harvest by Roy Ellamar, the “farm to table” concept thrives. For meat lovers, fear not: There’s really something for everyone here, from a flavor-packed fisherman’s stew (fish and shellfish in a tomato broth) and slow-roasted porchetta (pork cooked with rosemary, parsley and garlic). And vegetarians will find plenty to love on Ellamar’s menu. Farro porridge, with wild mushrooms, a slow-cooked farm egg and black truffle, is so decadent and tasty it might have you reconsidering that whole meat thing.
30 4.17.16 LasVegasMagazine.com
Two other Ellamar touches are not to be missed: The snack wagon and the sweet wagon, both covered with a multitude of culinary delights. The snack wagon’s spicy steak tartare is an indulgent, meaty treat that will have you begging for seconds, and the eggplant caviar, while a bit reminiscent of baba ganoush, stands out on its own. Highlights from the sweet wagon include the almond pear tart, vanilla crème brulee, chocolate-covered popcorn and chocolate mousse. –Ken Miller
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. 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. It’s naughty, topless fun, sure, but it’s also one of the most entertaining things on the Las Vegas Strip. –KM

Have the Time of Your Life
Classic sounds bring memories swirling around Something’s sorely missing in this dictionary definition of the word “righteous,” described as: “acting in accord with divine or moral law; free from guilt or sin.” Fine and good, but what about “musically slammin’” and “nostalgically heartwarming”? You don’t invoke that word without pairing it with “Brothers.” Not if you’re an aficionado of those last two definitions, both of which are reinforced at the new Righteous Brothers residency. Original bro Bill Medley revives the iconic act with Branson veteran Bucky Heard stepping in for the late Bobby Hatfield, who died in 2003 (and receives a video tribute in the show as Medley sings a solo version of “Unchained Melody.”).
32 4.17.16 LasVegasMagazine.com
Accompanied by an eight-piece band and three female backup singers, Medley’s rich bassbaritone blends with Heard’s tenor vocalizations in Hatfield’s style to refresh the “blue-eyed soul” that made stars of Medley and Hatfield, whose classics—recorded between 1963 and 1975—are revisited here. And in a rebuke to the aging process, Medley’s deep, emotive vocals, even at age 75, still sound like they were newly excavated from a gold mine. In a show goosed by Medley’s impish oneliners, the duo also fit together in a kind of father/ son vibe—the source of much of Medley’s goodnatured wisecracks—and hit all the highlights from a storied career. Revel in the memories
when they launch into “Turn On Your Love Light,” “Little Latin Lupe Lu,” “Soul & Inspiration” and “Koko Joe.” Other highlights include Heard’s solo moments—closely echoing Hatfield’s memorable recording and goose-bump-inducing falsetto on the lush, romantic “Ebb Tide” and tackling Roy Orbison’s octave-jumping “Crying”; Medley’s duet with his surprise guest, his daughter, McKenna, replacing Jennifer Warnes on “(I’ve Had) The Time of My Life”; and the guys’ stellar “We Gotta Get Out of This Place,” “Rock and Roll Heaven” and “You’ll Never Walk Alone.” Climaxing this nostalgia fest is, of course, “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling.” Lovin’ feeling … found. –Steve Bornfeld

He’s bad, he’s bad and he knows it. It’s inevitable that Michael Jackson’s legacy would live on. In MJ Live, it’s like he never left. Backed by dancers and a live band, MJ Live showcases rotating impersonators Jalles Franca and James Times III. MJ Live brilliantly weaves in and out of postBad-era hits “Dangerous” and “Jam,” then reverts to “Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough” and “Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’” to “Beat It” and “Man in the Mirror.” Lasers light up the room on “Smooth Criminal,” smoke blows from under the stage during “Black or White” and zombies get into formation for “Thriller.” Remember Jackson’s 1983 “Billie Jean” performance on Motown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever? Fast-forward to present day where Franca and Times reenact that moment sporting sequined gloves and black fedora hats just like Jackson, mirroring his every step, turning and even mastering the moonwalk. It’s as if the real MJ is right in front of you. –Chanelle Hayes

Tender Steak & Seafood is a far cry from most other traditional steakhouses. Appetizers range from charcuterie and carpaccio to the seafood tower. An artisanal cheese board is the opposite, stretched along a horizontal surface, with three or five cheeses of your choice. Tender pulls its beef from a range of areas, including Kansas City, of course, but also New Zealand, Australia, Wyoming and Idaho. And you find those in different cuts—filet mignon, Strip loins and porterhouse, ribeyes, and different preparations—flat iron, dry-aged, there’s even bison on the menu. One unusual offering is the game tasting trio— Rocky Mountain elk medallions, venison osso buco and a wild boar chop. —Nina King Luxor, 5-11 p.m. daily. 702.262.4778

Hexx Cocktail
For King and Country (Music) Once upon a time, the man who would be king declared: “I want to reach the point where people hear my name and immediately think of real country music.” Since then, that goal has been checked off his bucket list because George Strait, who is widely acknowledged as the “king of country,” and is the genre’s foremost neo-traditionalist, has far exceeded that point. Should you require statistical backup, well, just tell us when to stop: recorded the most No. 1 songs—60 of them—and top-five songs in the history of music of any kind; only artist in any genre to have a top-10 hit every year for 30 years; named top country music artist of the past 25 years in 2010 by Billboard magazine; and as a touring performer, Strait earned
Billboard’s Legend of Live accolade in 2013, honoring the concert industry’s most bankable star based on chart and box-office numbers. Consider those a fraction of Strait’s career distinctions. “If ever there was a natural in country music, it’s Strait,” People magazine wrote, while USA Today observed that he “continues to make such consistent quality look easy.” As for the man himself: “Traditional country music,” Strait once said, “is something that’s going to be around forever.” You couldn’t get that from a more reliable—and yes, straightforward—source. –Steve Bornfeld T-Mobile Arena, 8 p.m. April 22-23, sold out. 888.929.7849

Rising up 460 feet from the Las Vegas Strip below, the steel fortress at Paris provides one of the most spectacular views of Las Vegas around. For romance and total ambience, it’s tough to beat the Eiffel Tower Experience. The tower, re-created at half the size of the original, cost a whopping $28.5 million to build. However, the Experience is worth every penny. Featuring 4-inch-wide square peepholes to provide uninterrupted sight lines, the observation deck allows an unparalleled view of all the city has to offer. You can peer below at the tourists crossing the street, or gaze toward the south end of the Strip. And, if you time it just right, you might be able to catch one of the Bellagio fountain shows across the way. For an added touch of romance, twilight is the perfect time to enjoy the Experience. Back on the ground, the once-miniaturized sights regain their monumentality. But for those few minutes, it’s almost as if you’re on top of the world. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff

Women will have as much fun as men here, if not more, as they tend to get a lot of free shots from the bartenders. If you’re feeling adventurous (and coordinated), have a drink poured directly into your mouth from the bottle. The timid need not apply here.

Snap! She’s Back Rita Rudner’s dead-pan observations and hilarious comments about life, love, marriage, relationships and about anything else you can think of have entertained thousands through the years. “Rudnerisims” include “I think men who have a pierced ear are better prepared for marriage. They’ve experienced pain and bought jewelry,” and “The older theory was marry an older man because they’re more mature, but the new theory is men don’t mature. Marry a younger one.” Expect dozens more as the adorable
Rudner appears in glamorous outfits and begins telling her jokes. Her trademark of pausing before dropping her hilarious punchlines and adjusting her facial expression for maximum impact upon delivery, cause peals of laughter from her audiences. Multitalented, Rudner is an accomplished actress, screenwriter, author and comedian. She likes to say she “leaped from chorus lines to punchlines,” even though she danced in six Broadway shows before she was 25 years old. –Penny Levin
Natural Feel An unassuming enclave, the Wildlife Habitat almost begs you to ask, “Am I there yet?” If not for the colorful denizens hanging around, the habitat would seem like just a beautiful gateway to the pool.

A swan dives into the water for an early dinner. The ibis wins the unofficial award for longest bill, while the flamingos look a bit ruffled. And in the water, giant koi congregate underneath the footbridge. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff Flamingo, 8 a.m.-dusk, free. 702.733.3111

A Year of Success
Caesars Palace hot spot continues nightlife reign When a nightclub has the world’s highest-paid DJ on its roster, you take notice. According to Forbes magazine, for the second year in a row, Calvin Harris is the top-earning EDM DJ, coming in at a cool $66 million. Also on Forbes top 12 list? Martin Garrix and Afrojack. What do all three superstars have in common besides fat bank accounts? All three are resident DJs at Omnia at Caesars Palace, one of the city’s ultimate nocturnal playgrounds, At the one-year anniversary celebration last month, with Harris behind the decks, record crowds showed up to toast the nightclub’s success—a nightclub that rose out of the ashes of the city’s first mega club, Pure. However, Omnia’s occupancy of the space has done it big-

ger, better and more jaw-dropping. The running design theme is a cross-section of modern and vintage, with soft and sexy flourishes—and bold and seductive touches. One thing did remain the same as Pure: the expansive terrace that overlooks the lights of the neon Strip. On the terrace, guests can dance directly under the stars to live DJ sets, order cocktails at the outdoor bar or book a luxurious VIP table that’s more reminiscent of a decked-out poolside cabana. Back inside, the 75,000-square-foot space continues with two levels and two separate rooms. The main room features the stunning and massive kinetic LED chandelier that fluidly moves up and down, side to side, and morphs into different shapes while glowing all the colors
of the spectrum. When the chandelier is in motion it’s definitely an Instagram moment you’ll want to document for the folks back home. On the mezzanine level, guests can book VIP tables that overlook the dance floor and DJ booth below. Patrons can take it down a notch in size by visiting the Heart of Omnia—think ultralounge with a more intimate vibe, smaller dance floor and the sounds of top 40, R&B and hip hop. This week Omnia welcomes Martin Garrix (April 19), Calvin Harris (April 22) and Nervo (April 23). Inside the Heart of Omnia are Turbulence (April 19), OB-One (April 22) and Rev Run and DJ Ruckus (April 23). –Kiko Miyasato Caesars Palace, opens at 10 p.m. Tues. & Thurs.-Sun. 702.785.6200

B&B Ristorante takes you on a tour through Italy By chanelle hayes Photography by big french
Lamb neck fritti

nosh cheers
For almost a decade, B&B Ristorante at The Venetian has transported diners to nearly 20 regions in Italy. From Veneto, Emilia-Romagna and Friuli-Venezia Giulia in the northeast to Piedmont in the northwest, to the central area of Tuscany, all the way to Abruzzo in the south, culinary master Mario Batali puts his culinary skills to the test while Joe Bastianich brings his vast wine expertise. A sommelier, an expert who lives and breathes wine, exists to guide you through the evening—a wine tour while you dine, if you will. The restaurant’s extensive wine list boasts more than 5,500 bottles, which happens to be one of the largest Italian wine collections on the West Coast and the largest Italian wine collection in Las Vegas for a single restaurant. With that in mind, your sommelier won’t steer you wrong with quarter-liter pours or full bottles to pair with your Italian feast ahead. An exclusive to B&B Hospitality Group is Flor Prosecco. A perfect match for seasonal dishes, the fruity champagne from Veneto heightens the flavor of the spring market greens. Lamb neck fritti, another in-season antipasti, breaded and fried with dark, succulent, shredded lamb meat packed inside, takes the meaning of exotic to a new level. The Prosecco’s acidity helps to cleanse the palate after the fritti. House-cured salumi—coppa, lonza and sopressata—is a favorite starter among diners; it showcases the restaurant’s sustainability efforts, with every part of the pig used. A staple of Ferrara in the Emilia-Romagna region, capellacci di zucca (hat-shaped stuffed pasta; the restaurant’s version is filled with a purée of marina di chioggia squash and ricotta, topped with Marcona almonds and sage), is accompanied by Bastianich Vespa Bianco 2013, a white wine made up of chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and picolit from Friuli-Venezia Giulia. The rich texture of the wine perfectly complements the pasta’s Luigi Guffanti butter sauce. Pastas with tomato-based sauces such as B&B Ristorante’s chitarra pair beautifully with Morellino di Scansano “I Perazzi” La Mozza 2013, a red wine from Tuscany. A classic dish originating in Abruzzo, chitarra is named after the guitar-like instrument used to make the long thin pasta. If you’re a pasta fanatic, savor the Mario’s Classics pasta tasting menu for specialties like goat cheese tortelloni and beef cheek ravioli with black truffles.

Caramel bonet
B&B house-cured salumi
On the meatier side, diners can look to the pork sirloin for two. The caramelized sweetness of the arista rub, a Tuscan-inspired mix of herbs and spices, enhances the flavor of the Berkshire pork’s saltiness. The pork sirloin comes with roasted root vegetables and fresh arugula; add a side of thick-cut Weiser Farm fingerling potatoes and a glass of Batasiolo Barolo 2011, a full-bodied red wine from Piedmont, for a match made in heaven. Your night isn’t complete without the caramel bonet, an Italian version of flan, accented with bits of candied cocoa nibs and sliced
mandarin oranges. The gelati and sorbetti are superb, with flavors depending on what fruits that are in season. A perfect wine pairing for such decadent desserts is Maculan Dindarello 2013 from Veneto. If you like moscato, then you’ll love this bottled wine with whiffs of honey and orange blossom. By the time your B&B Ristorante culinary and wine tour is complete, you’ll feel like you’ve traveled to Italy and back, all with the help of Batali and Bastianich’s brilliant concept of authentic Italy. And you don’t even need a passport for it. Buon appetito!

Wendy Macias
Model cocktail server captures the prize Three years ago, Wendy Macias had a goal: becoming a model cocktail server at Wet Republic. She didn’t become one then, but she kept her eye on the prize and bided her time, and Wet Republic is where you’ll find her today. In her old job as hostess at a Vegas steakhouse, Macias “would see this group of gorgeous girls come in every week,” she said. “And I was like, ‘What do these girls do?’ They were so hot and everyone wanted to be their friend. So I talked to them, found out they worked at the best pools and nightclubs, (and) asked how they got where they are.” So as soon as Macias turned 21, she auditioned for Wet Republic. “Auditioning was the most intimidating thing I’ve ever done,” said the Mexico native, who
46 4.17.16 LasVegasMagazine.com
was hired as a VIP cocktail server at Hakkasan (The Hakkasan Group owns both the day club and nightclub). “Luckily I got a call back. I was so excited. Even though it wasn’t for the pool, working at Hakkasan ended up being amazing.” After working at the nightclub for nearly three years, Macias decided this year she would audition again for Wet Republic. “And I got it!” she said, smiling. While the surroundings and day schedule are new, so far she loves it. “The crowd and vibes are awesome, plus I get a tan.” But Macias said what she cherishes the most “is giving people great customer service. At the end of the day, when they’re thanking me, that makes my day, because I’ve always worked really hard for that.” –Kiko Miyasato
Kicking back poolside with a cocktail in hand is paradise … or is it Pearadise? Wet Republic offers an assortment of specialty cocktails, like the Pearadise—a refreshing mix of Grey Goose La Poire vodka, triple sec, agave nectar, lemonade, soda, ginger ale and fresh lime. The packed menu also includes skinny cocktails, under 150 calories per serving, as well as margaritas, mojitos, frozen drinks, beer, wine and bottles of vodka, rum, tequila, scotch, gin, bourbon, cognac and champagne. Individual cocktails can be ordered both by the glass or pitcher. –KM

A Twist on Knits Why the look is the ultimate winter-to-spring transition trend Marled knits is a trend we love! This two-toned knit makes it easy to pair, and the best part is you can take it from winter to spring, making it the ultimate transition piece. Spring weather is often an unpredictable time of year, so planning what to wear is no small feat, and with many of the new trends and fresh colors hitting stores, it can be overwhelming to narrow down which looks will work best for you. A few tips:
Free People
• Try layering a marled knit for a pop of color over your winter whites. Remember, you can always loosen the knit by tying to your bag, wearing over your shoulders, or looping around your waist. • Use a belt over your marled knit to create a more form-fitting shape. • Add a leather piece under for interesting texture. So hang on to those sweaters—don’t box them up quite yet! –Nicole Chandler get the look

Through the sliding glass doors that open onto the terrace lies one of the most impressive aspects of the Sky Villa: The cantilevered, glass-enclosed pool that juts out from the side of the tower. With city views below and beyond, it just begs guests to take a dip.

Roll With the Punchlines At the height of his popularity in the 1980s, legendarily foul-mouthed comedian Andrew Dice Clay (Tropicana, 800.829.9034) was one of the first stand-up comics to regularly perform in arenas, once selling out two nights in a row at New York City’s 20,000-capacity Madison Square Garden.

see him in a much more intimate setting. He’ll be performing at the Tropicana’s Laugh Factory for three nights, coinciding with the recent premiere of his new Showtime series Dice.

Las Vegas, where Clay has spent much of his time since 2010, it features appearances from local entertainers like Criss Angel, Rita Rudner and Wayne Newton. Following his 2011 stint on HBO’s Entourage, Clay knows all about parodying his showbiz persona, but he’s still great at exploring that persona onstage, whether that’s in front of 20,000 people or 200. –Josh Bell

Who-What-Where More than 11 million viewers tuned in to the 51st Academy of Country Music Awards from the MGM Grand Garden Arena. The duet between Dolly Parton and Katy Perry was history in the making. Katy selected “Jolene,” “Coat of
Many Colors” and “9 to 5” for their musical mashup. Country artist Michael Ray was spotted at Tao Nightclub in The Venetian with girlfriend Carli Rayne. Ventriloquist Paul Zerdin enjoyed Absinthe at Caesars Palace, meeting
with the cast after. Criss Angel took in a performance of Blue Man Group at Luxor. Country music superstar Chris Stapleton dined at La Comida. Rising country stars Old Dominion celebrated their first ACM win at Green Valley Ranch.
J Lo gets $1M for wedding Planet Hollywood queen Jennifer Lopez (All I Have at Axis at Planet Hollywood) is reported to have picked up a cool $1 million check for performing at the lavish Moscow marriage of Said Gutseriev and Khadija Uzhakhovs. Said is the son of oil and media baron Mikhail Gutseriev, who reportedly shelled out $1 billion for the extravagant wedding celebration. The 20-year-old bride wore a $1 million, one-of-a-kind Elie Saab gown weighing 25 pounds with jewelry sewn into the train. Some of the guests groaned to Russian Tatler magazine that J Lo’s three outfits for her songs were too skimpy. I loved her quote about the nuptials: “The hardest thing I had to do was to pronounce the newlyweds’ names.”

Chippendales The Show at the Rio announced its latest celebrity guest host: Actor and model Antonio Sabato Jr. Sabato Jr.’s limited engagement with the popular, long-running male revue is from May 5 through June 5. Sabato Jr. recently competed on ABC’s Dancing With the Stars. “I am looking forward to joining the Chippendales in Las Vegas as their celebrity guest host,” said Sabato Jr. Showbiz superstars from across the globe are joining Criss Angel in his Sept. 12 Heal Every Life Possible concert for children’s cancer research, treatments and ultimately a cure. Angel’s son Johnny Crisstopher, who is battling cancer, will make the trip from Australia with his mother, Shaunyl Benson, who also will perform. Other performers include Vince Neil, Gary Oldman and Richie Sambora. Luxor comedy headliner Carrot Top, who jumped out of a huge cake, joined the 1,000 fans who turned out to sing “Happy Birthday” to comedy legend and Las Vegas resident Marty Allen, celebrating his 94th birthday at Rampart Casino. Longtime friend Sidney Poitier called in with a “Happy Birthday,” and Allen’s wife, singer Karon Kate Blackwell, sang a few numbers as well.
