Dita Von Teese
Queen of Burlesque ready to entice Las Vegas Dita Von Teese has spent the better part of a quarter century advancing the timeless art of burlesque with stage productions that are as elaborate as they are seductive. The self-proclaimed “International Queen of Burlesque” recently spoke with Las Vegas Magazine’s Matt Jacob about the challenges of casting, being a “glamour evangelist” and her decision to incorporate men into her latest show, The Art of the Teese, which stops at House of Blues in Mandalay Bay on July 10. What was the most challenging part of putting together The Art of the Teese? Finding performers who know how to keep the energy high, because (the show) has to feel like a roller coaster. I’ve been to a lot of burlesque shows that aren’t mine, and sometimes they last too long or people are onstage too long. So it’s important to find those acts who are so good that those six minutes they’re onstage is so riveting and exciting—performers who are distinctive and have such strong personalities. I’m not interested in putting on a show full of pretty little pinup girls. I want (my shows) to be something that changes your mind forever about what burlesque is and what sensuality and beauty is. For this tour, you’ve added men to the roster for the first time. What inspired the decision to introduce the “Vontourage”? For the longest time, when I performed onstage, I always had these French maid female backup dancers who picked up my clothes (as I undressed). One day I thought, “Why am I not doing this with men, and having them pick up my clothes?” It just made sense. Plus, it kind of changes the entire dynamic … and is just a totally different energy. It’s worked well and gotten a great response.

You’re reviving your iconic Martini Glass and Champagne Glass routines in The Art of the Teese, but you’ve redesigned the glasses, including adorning the champagne glass with more than 250,000 Swarovski crystals. Was it just time to freshen things up? Every time I do the glass, it’s like doing my hit song. But I always want to do it in a different way. … I work on the designs with Catherine D’Lish, who has been my creative partner for the last 18 years. We woke up one day and said, “Let’s do the ultimate glass. It’s time.” The glasses are hardly your only elaborate stage props. What are some of the others you’ve created? I had a big birdcage. I had a big Chinese opium den. I have a big Swarovski crystallized bull that I ride. I’ve got a big toy box full of gigantic props! Ginger Valentine, who is one of the performers in the show, is doing an act that I created with Catherine in the early 2000s—we’ve passed it on to her. It’s always fun to go into my space where all my things are kept and see how they can live a new life. When and how did your interest in burlesque manifest? My mother loved to watch
old movies and she collected antiques, so I grew up with this imprint and obsession with women of 1940s and ’50s cinema, and that just never left me. I mean, I worked in a lingerie store when I was 15 years old,
because lingerie was symbolic of womanhood and femininity. I call myself a glamour evangelist. I’m here to preach and hope it rubs off on some other women who will find their confidence the same way I have: with glamour.

Looking for something fun to do? Head to Beer Park at Paris for its bi-weekly Summer Movie Series event.

This week’s screening on July 11 is the iconic ’80s blockbuster, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. No need to purchase tickets, simply order any of Beer Park’s food or drinks and settle in for the movie.

Carrot Top doesn’t just entertain his audiences at Luxor: He gives them shots as well! The redhaired comedian dispenses more than 110 gallons of Crown Royal every year. Between 1951 and 1963, when more than 100 nuclear bombs were detonated above ground at the Nevada Test Site, you could buy postcards calling Las Vegas the “Up and Atom City.” The High Roller observation wheel at The Linq Promenade contains enough cable to stretch 4.8 miles. Female impersonator Frank Marino’s now-legendary Joan Rivers character got him sued by Rivers in 1986, but the two settled out of court and later became friends.
One question
Toby Allen of Human Nature What experience had the most profound impact on the adult you’ve become? There are few experiences that shaped the man I have become more than my high school years. I was a boarder at a school with a tradition steeped in football and farming. At 12 years of age, with a love for music and performing, I was an easy target for the mockery of my peers and older students. The first few years there were particularly difficult, not only dealing with limited time with my parents and family but also keeping my head held high day to day. The flip side of my experience didn’t become apparent until I had left school and gone out into the world to fend for myself. All the things I was forced to do during high school—like my own washing, managing my nonschool hours and taking responsibility for a younger group of students as a dormitory monitor—combined to fill me with independence and confidence to look after myself that I may not have had otherwise. As for the bullying, which continues to be a major problem in a lot of schools, it ultimately shaped me into a man that has been able to trust in the things I love doing and appreciate the support and love of those who have been there for me in the toughest times. Human Nature performs at The Venetian. Shows are 7 p.m. Tues.-Sat. Call 702.414.9000 for tickets.

Come On, Get Happy No entertainer on the Las Vegas Strip has changed and varied his show over the decades more than drag queen extraordinaire Frank Marino, and starting July 10, he’s shaking things up with Frank Marino’s Divas Las Vegas once again. For starters, his show will now go on at 4 p.m. Friday through Monday and at 8 p.m. Wednesday through Thursday, rather than 9:30 p.m. “For years and years,

people have been saying the show is on too late,” Marino said. In addition, you’ll find new happy hour packages, one of which includes a 32-ounce drink and free souvenir Divas cup. “The more you drink, the better we look,” Marino joked. And from Friday through Monday, take advantage of Marino’s happy hour buffet/brunch deal, which includes a meal at
Harrah’s buffet and a ticket to the 4 p.m. Divas show (the brunch option is available only on Saturdays and Sundays, and includes unlimited champagne for an additional $5). “So many people these days are asking for dinner shows,” Marino said. “Divas brings the dinner show package back. And with a 4 p.m. show, it also gives you the chance to see two shows in one evening.” –Ken Miller

Based on the popular television series, CSI: The Experience is an educational way to take a look inside the world of forensic science. The walk-through exhibit is a crime-solving playground where many of the displays are interactive. With clipboard in hand, you’ll play super sleuth to solve crime scene No. 1, 2 or 3. With a little help from videos including CSI cast members and real forensic scientists, gather evidence such as bullet casings and strands of hair. After you’ve collected all your clues, head to the lab to research evidence through DNA and fingerprint analysis, photos, toxicology reports and microscopic analysis.

Dishing It Out
More Than Just the Meats BLT Steak is known the world over, and for good reason: It never disappoints. No matter where you find one, you’re going to have a memorable experience, and nowhere is that more true than the outpost at Bally’s. The amazing Gruyère popovers, served with sea salt and butter, are almost good enough to make you want to skip the rest of the meal. Almost. Other starters include a delectable tuna tartare, served with avo-

cado and soy-lime dressing, and the smoky/ salty double-cut smoked Neuske bacon. Steak options range from New York strip to porterhouse, and it’s recommended you order a sauce. As good as filet mignon or bone-in-ribeye are here, they only get better when dipped in peppercorn or Béarnaise. If steak’s not your thing, BLT offers fine alternatives, such as the ultra-juicy lemonrosemary chicken. –Ken Miller
Throwing aside the traditional stand-up comedy routine, Vinnie Favorito unleashes his fire-breathing improvisational wit upon the audience, which is impossible to shield. He’s unrelenting, unapologetic and totally unfiltered. No subject is sacred; Favorito is going to find a way to make fun of you. But humiliating people is practically Favorito’s love language. It’s his great equalizer, for how can we expect to love each other for our differences if we can’t laugh at them, too? –Alex Haase Westgate Las Vegas, 8 p.m. Wed.-Sun., $49-$100, $125 meet and greet plus tax and fee. 800.222.5361 BLT Steak photo by Peter Harasty Vinnie Favorito photo by Christopher DeVargas

Watching a performer push his strength to the limit is a suspenseful and beautiful act. Absinthe at Caesars Palace, a variety show with touches of vaudeville, burlesque and circus acts, delivers such spectacle again and again. Host The Gazillionaire and his assistant deliver bits of R- and sometimes X-rated comedy. The Green Fairy, portrayed by sexy and sultry singer Melody Sweets and tap-dancing twins Sean and John Scott all shine, but the feats of strength will grab a whole other side of your attention. Acrobat Ruslan Khusinov stacks chair upon chair, balancing in precarious positions until he adds a final eighth chair and then looks down from a handstand at the top. Another fierce balancing act is four-man team Atlantis, creating a fluid human totem pole. Absinthe is truly intoxicating, easily mixing lighter, hilarious entertainment with acrobatic acts performed with grace, ease and perfection. –Kiko Miyasato

Call him a freak. Dude doesn’t mind. Really. When your show is titled CRISS ANGEL Mindfreak Live!, you can’t mind the “freak” label, can ya? Besides, it’s all by design. “I wanted to create the ultimate magic experience, to embrace technology that no Vegas show up to this point has,” Angel said. “For me, it was about creating a journey, the magic of emotion that would connect people and take them on a roller coaster ride. Some of it would be scary, some of it creepy, some of it funny, might
even make you shed a tear, but I wanted to give people tons of revolutionary magic.” Highlights of the production, all to the accompaniment of a rocking live band, include sawing a woman in half (but declining to reassemble her), an upside-down straitjacket escape, disappearing (and reappearing in the crowd), and a levitation stunt in which the goth-glossed performer levitates above a ladder, across the stage and inside a metal sphere. It’s positively “freak”-ish. –Steve Bornfeld
Beer-Brined Chicken Wings Happy hour is always a good time in Vegas, and food makes it even better. Public House in The Venetian recently introduced its happy hour and it’s daily! Joining $5 and $6 sangrias and Bloody Marys in the bar and lounge are beer-brined chicken wings, with a spicy Calabrian chili glaze and fried cauliflower with sweet chili sauce. Dip those into blue cheese dressing, or opt for poutine with duck confit for $6 each. Now that’s a happy happy hour!

This and That The choice is yours at Vice Versa Patio & Lounge at Vdara Hotel & Spa. There’s many ways to enjoy the lounge tucked away off the main floor of the property. In the mornings, dig into some small plates from the breakfast bar while sipping on a Bloody Mary (Friday through Sunday from 9 a.m.-noon). If afternoons are more your thing, stop by for Happy Afternoons, Vice Versa’s version of happy hour (11 a.m.-3:30 p.m. Monday through Thursday). Dig into small plates like mini grilled brioche sandwiches, garlic edamame and rock shrimp lettuce wraps, plus specials on seasonal cocktails, craft beer and wine. During the evening hours, settle in at the bar or lounge, or take the party outdoors to Vice Versa’s sizeable patio, complete with water features, fire pits and plenty of seating for both lovers and friends. A bonus is the lounge’s attention to detail when it comes to the cocktail menu—a practice in mixology and the use of fine ingredients creates a menu that is both

A Royal Tasting
Eat Up His Stand-Up It might surprise you to learn that standup comic and Broadway, film and television star David Alan Grier is a foodie and has a food blog called Chocolate Glutton! where he likes to “discuss, obsess and share the love I have for all things gluttonous,” as he notes on his official website (morning buns are his latest subject). But the talented star is much better known for his television work such as the sketch comedy series In Living Color and his own Comedy Central special The Book of David: The Cult Figure’s Manifesto.
Currently, Grier plays Jerrod Carmichael’s father in the comedy series The Carmichael Show, now in its third season. Grier got his start on Broadway in The First, for which he earned a Tony Award and was also a member of the original Broadway cast of Dreamgirls. Here in Vegas, Grier wraps up his talents in a hilarious stand-up set. Joining Grier is Kira Soltanovich, who played pranks on the show Girls Behaving Badly and was also a correspondent on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. –Penny Levin

They’ve Got a Point
U.S. Darts Masters expands to Vegas If you thought the game of darts was just a way to pass the time in a pub, think again. The skillbased sport as been on the rise internationally for nearly 25 years, has produced a small circle of stars and strives to offer larger purses to winners in order to make turning professional a realistic aspiration for amateurs. With the establishment at the Tropicana this year of the World Series of Darts’ U.S. Masters, the Professional Darts Corporation hopes that the spirit of competition and celebration inherent to modern dart playing will catch on in North America as well.
34 7.9.17 LasVegasMagazine.com
“Darts is a huge sport in America, but it’s not seen as a professional career for players, and we want to change that,” said Barry Hearn, founder and chairman of Matchroom Sport, which acquired the PDC in 2001. “That might not happen overnight, but we’ve always had great support from the American darting community and that’s certainly been the case since we announced that we were bringing the World Series of Darts to Las Vegas.” The U.S. Masters brings professional darts back to Sin City for the first time since the PDC’s last Las Vegas Desert Classic in 2010. Eight
North American qualifiers face off against eight top-seeded international stars, with the winner earning the title of U.S. Darts Master. Tough competitors Phil “The Power” Taylor, “Mighty” Michael van Gerwen and Peter “Snakebite” Wright are set to play, and when they make entrances to amplified anthems as fans cheer them on it will be apparent to the uninitiated why darts is enjoying its resurgence. Big screens and cameras enhance the spectator experience, but it’s the celebratory atmosphere complete with costumes and sing-alongs that elevate darts from a pub pastime into a sport. –Matt Kelemen

The 24,000-square-foot, two-level space, designed by the Rockwell Group (which also designed Hakkasan Group’s mega club Omnia at Caesars Palace), features two distinct areas, the main club and the mezzanine level, fit for two different types of partygoers. On the main level, heading to the dance floor, you first have to pass through multiple tall, mirrored doors leading to the sleek nightclub, highlighted by the DJ booth and VIP booths with burgundy leather upholstery. If you’re occupy-

ing one of the 50 VIP booths, you’ll be escorted through a tunnel of bronze arches, and an antique glass chandelier summons you through the alluring corridor. Jewel’s technology scheme is one of a kind, too, with massive, dual-sided LED video screens and state-of-the-art effects that light up the venue and make it sparkle. The mezzanine level houses five VIP skybox suites: The Blind Tiger, The Studio, The G.O.A.T., The Gallery and The Prestige. Each of the skybox suites has its own entrance, its own décor and its own vibe (one wraps guests in a sexy speakeasy feel while another is as top-notch as it gets, with champagne-hued, tufted walls and a brass-beaded chandelier). And the vantage point from each skybox suite offers a great view of the
main club down below. The mezzanine level also features a bar and separate dance floor, if you want to break away from the main club. Basically, there’s something for everyone at Jewel. Besides the nightclub’s aesthetics, Jewel sure knows how to pack a house with its stellar talent and DJ roster. Since opening, the venue has welcomed celebs such as Drake, Jamie Foxx, The Chainsmokers, Lil Jon, Steve Aoki, Swizz Beatz and Steve Angello. Join Vegas industry elite for the weekly event Flawless Mondays with duo LA Leakers performing; DJ Irie and Jauz lay down the genre-bending beats July 14-15, respectively. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff Aria, opens at 10 p.m. Fri.-Sat. & Mon., cover charge applies, 21+. 702.590.8000

Take a flavor exploration at El Dorado Cantina
Queso fundido with mushrooms

nosh cheers
If you're looking for a great Mexican restaurant on the Las Vegas Strip, you’ll find several. But one of the best in Vegas isn’t even on the Strip. El Dorado Cantina, in an industrial area not far from the Strip, will make you happy you’ve ventured out. (Plus, it just opened a new El Dorado Express on the Strip, so technically it is on the Strip). Since it opened three years ago, El Dorado has garnered a huge amount of acclaim for its organic, non-GMO cuisine, and rightly so. This place rocks! Chef Francisco “Paco” Cortes was key in developing the wide-ranging menu, which pulls from traditions and spices all over Latin America and helping build relationships to purveyors of sustainable products. Although the website carefully lets you know that organic and non-GMO ingredients aren’t guaranteed, it also lists the companies that the restaurant sources from, all the way from meats and dairy to chips. You’ll want to start with guacamole and a margarita, of course, because who wouldn’t? Guacamole is prepared tableside by your server, who uses a mortar and pestle made of volcanic rock to combine garlic and cilantro, onion, jalapeños, tomato and avocado. The fragrance alone will drive you crazy. The Smokey Margarita also delivers on fragrance and flavor—El Silencio Espadin mescal provides intense flavor, tamarind purée adds to that, and Sweet Heat syrup gives a little touch of spicy ghost pepper. Order two if you must. Other appetizers include the queso fundido, which becomes vegetarian-friendly with the addition of mushrooms and raja peppers. It’s served sizzling on a skillet, and the cheese is crispy underneath and soft and scoopable above. If you’d like even more protein, try the chorizo variety. And who wouldn’t want to indulge in chapulines? The crispy fried grasshoppers are a very old Mexican dish that have a surprising following. Taco Tuesday can definitely occur every day here—you’ll find al pastor and carnitas, corn rajas, and pulled chicken street tacos as well as many signature varieties including cactus, short rib, cabeza, veggie, shrimp and cheese.
Pulled chicken tacos
Deep-fried ice cream
Cochinita pibil
3025 Sammy Davis Jr. Drive, 24 hours daily. 702.722.2289
The entrée list may make you reconsider your tacos—in the cochinita pibil, pork has been marinated with achiote and wrapped in banana leaves. And accompanying habanero onion citrus mix adds a huge kick. The Mexican corn is an exceptional side dish as well—on cob or off. To cool off that kick, try the deep-fried ice cream. Vanilla bean ice cream is coated in cereal flakes, fried, and covered in rich banana and chocolate sauces. For a traditional dessert, get the flan. This might be from an old family recipe, and you'll want every bite (if you don’t, I do—just call me).

Jessica Buckmaster
Lead cocktail server takes nothing for granted Disneyland is not the happiest place on earth, at least according to Jessica Buckmaster. “Me and a girlfriend came out here during spring break our senior year of college,” she recalls. “We fell in love with Las Vegas and thought ‘Wow, this is the happiest place on earth!’” About a month after graduation, they moved to town. That was eight years ago. Today, Buckmaster says, “working and living in Las Vegas has literally given me everything in every possible way. It’s given me a career all these years. I’ve made my best friends. I love it here.” Careerwise, Buckmaster is enjoying her eighth season with The Venetian and The Palazzo. She started out as a cocktail server on the casino floor, graveyard shift, but as soon as summer rolled around she moved outdoors to The Palazzo’s upscale pool club—this year, the
40 7.9.17 LasVegasMagazine.com
pool club was rebranded as The Aquatic Club— where she’s the lead cocktail server. “There’s a lot of great things about this particular venue that makes me proud to work here,” says the Ohio native. “Our job is to befriend our guests. We don’t have huge DJs; people don’t come here for that. We have repeat customers because of the experience that we’re able to give them. Some guests feel like family.” For Buckmaster, it’s not just a job—it’s a pleasure working in a position that, year after year, she has cherished. “You can make a wonderful living and when the expiration happens for walking around in a bikini, you know that it was beneficial that you were able to do it all these years. I didn’t come from much, so this is amazing. It’s given me everything I have.” The happiest place on earth, indeed. –Kiko Miyasato
As part of The Aquatic Club’s new feel, a specialty cocktail menu was created, too. The ambience and décor of the pool club’s image is a throwback to the popularity of posh country clubs, where guests played tennis and rounds of golf … and of course, imbibed delicious cocktails, like the Tee Time. All eyes will turn your way when you sip this cocktail, which is served inside a hollowedout watermelon. The fresh and lightly sweetened treat is mixed with Absolut Lime vodka, Pok Pok Som ginger vinegar, fresh watermelon juice, fresh lime and mint. –KM

Flipping the Script In the late ’80s, Keith Sweat’s debut album, Make It Last Forever, rocketed to the top of the charts, selling more than 3 million copies and breaking records with singles like “I Want Her” and title track “Make It Last Forever.” “The music scene at the time I came out was good but I helped make it better,” Sweat

says. His new jack swing style, which was created by Teddy Riley, was relatively unusual but made a huge impact on the industry. “I don’t take credit for it because you had people like the O’Jays out and New Edition, those type of people,” Sweat says. “I just added to what was already out there with
a different type of vibe. I kind of flipped the script a little bit.” For his Vegas show, Sweat delivers tons of hits but it’s more than just a typical concert. “I’m going to make it a nice, intimate setting,” says Sweat. “The show will be entertaining, as all of my shows are.” –Chanelle Hayes

Appropriately enough for a band with the word “confessional” in its name, Dashboard Confessional started with singer-songwriter Chris Carrabba alone, pouring his heart out. The first Dashboard Confessional album, 2000’s The Swiss Army Romance, was a solo side project for Carrabba, who was the singer for hard rock/emo band Further Seems Forever. The sparse acoustic sound of Dashboard Confessional’s early releases ended up defining the emo genre as much as the heavier sounds of bands like FSF, though. Dashboard Confessional has released six studio albums, all built around Carrabba’s emotionally vulnerable songwriting. Although it’s been eight years since the last full album, Carrabba recently told Billboard that he has at least 40 songs ready, and the band teased fans with a four-song covers EP in January. –Josh Bell The Pearl at Palms, 8 p.m. July 15, starting at $55 plus tax and fee, must be accompanied by 21+. 702.944.3200
Reggae Jam
Summertime in Vegas is full of reggae concerts, and there’s no better place to catch the laid-back island music on a hot night than at Mandalay Bay Beach. That’s where you can see reggae bands Dirty Heads and SOJA, two of the most popular American reggae crossover acts around. Dirty Heads (pictured) hail from Southern California, where their early influences included the local punk and ska scenes. Dirty Heads’ 2016 self-titled album reached the top of Billboard’s independent albums chart and the top 20 of the overall albums chart. The most recent studio album from SOJA (2014’s Amid the Noise and Haste) also made the Billboard top 20, and the Virginia-based band is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year. Like Dirty Heads, SOJA brings in influences from genres outside reggae. The combination of the two bands will make for a perfectly chill night. –JB Mandalay Bay Beach, 9 p.m. July 15, $39.50 plus tax and fee. 800.745.3000

Songs and Comedy One drunken karaoke moment in the late ’90s changed the course of Dan Finnerty’s life. On impulse, he delivered a rendition of Helen Reddy’s signature song “I Am Woman” to the crowd in a bar and was an instant hit. Within a few years, he had an act that sold out clubs in Hollywood and attracted celebrities and filmmakers, including director Todd Phillips. The Dan Band became the best-known wedding band in the movies, appearing in Phillips’ Old School and Starsky & Hutch while Finnerty starred in films such as The Terminal and Rock of Ages. He also gained visibility as a comedy correspondent for The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and fronted The Dan Band for a Bravo special in 2006. Television audiences were able to see what wowed Mark McGrath and Pam Anderson on the club circuit when Finnerty and two bespectacled backup singers blazed through a set of songs made famous by women. “You Oughta Know,” “No Scrubs,” “Hold On” and “Genie in a Bottle” are just a sampling of karaoke favorites that Finnerty and company bust out complicated choreography to while making audience
members laugh at well-placed f-bombs or cry due to the emotional triggering of the song itself. –Matt Kelemen

Modern Troubadour Prince Royce garnered his 10th No. 1 single on Billboard’s Tropical Songs chart in April with “Déjà Vu,” a collaboration with Shakira that also became his 15th No. 1 Tropical Songs radio hit. The Bronx-born bachata singer has come a long way since first topping the chart with his cover of Stand By Me in August 2010. Royce, born Geoffrey Royce Rojas 28 years ago to immigrant parents, released his fifth studio album, Five, in February and has come to personify the contemporary bachata singer: a romantic troubadour blending the contemporary form of the traditional Dominican music with modern forms of R&B. That means collaborations with a host of popular artists. Shakira was joined by Chris Brown and Zendaya on Five, and on previous efforts teamed up with artists such as Pitbull and Jennifer Lopez, Snoop Dogg and Selena Gomez. Royce generates hysteria among fans at his concerts, and his old New York City borough is proud enough to have named a street after him in May. With no shows scheduled beyond the current tour’s last date in Chicago, concertgoers able to catch him this summer will be the envy of less fortunate fans. –MK

It’s a whole new, familiar Soul2Soul for Tim McGraw and Faith Hill The numerous hit songs, the millions of albums sold, concerts all over the world, the truckload of awards. Make no mistake about it: Tim McGraw and Faith Hill are bona fide superstars who possess immense talent. And yet you could argue the country music couple’s most impressive achievement has nothing to do with any of those songs, albums, concerts or awards. Last autumn, McGraw and Hill celebrated 20 years of wedded bliss—otherwise known as an eternity when it comes to couples in the limelight, particularly in the music industry. Let’s put that number—20 years—into historical perspective: McGraw and Hill were married the same year ER and Seinfeld were America’s top two television shows, and Independence Day and Twister finished No. 1 and No. 2 at the box office. The same year Muhammad Ali lit the torch to officially kick off the Summer Olympics in Atlanta, the Dallas Cowboys won their last Super Bowl and the New York Yankees won their first of four World Series titles in a five-year span.
The same year Hootie & the Blowfish won the Grammy for Best New Artist, LeAnn Rimes won the Academy of Country Music award for New Female Vocalist of the Year, and the No. 1 album on the Billboard charts was Alanis Morissette’s Jagged Little Pill. They were married five months before Carrie Underwood’s 14th birthday, two months before Swift celebrated her seventh birthday and one month before Bill Clinton won reelection. Further perspective on the McGraw-Hill union: It’s lasted longer than the marriages of Ike and Tina Turner (16 years), Sonny and Cher (11 years), Carly Simon and James Taylor (11 years), Michelle and John Phillips of The Mamas & The Papas (eight years), George Jones and Tammy Wynette (six years) and Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert (four years). And while some marvel at how long pop music’s reigning king and queen, Beyoncé and Jay Z, have remained hitched, the fact is Bey-Z will have to keep the knot tied until April 2028 to reach the 20-year marriage milestone.
To show that their love for their fans is nearly equal to their love for one another, McGraw and Hill commemorated their momentous anniversary by holding a secret show in Nashville, where they announced a revival of their recordbreaking Soul2Soul Tour. Days before launching the 65-city engagement on April 7 in New Orleans, McGraw and Hill gave fans T-Mobile Arena a treat by releasing their 7:30 p.m. July duet, “Speak to a Girl.” The 13, starting new single is among sevat $100 plus eral songs hubby and wife tax and fee. will perform in tandem 888.929.7849 onstage while likely gazing into each other’s eyes. Should their love story last another 15 years, McGraw and Hill would reach a marital landmark established by two other country music legends: Johnny Cash and June Carter defied the odds with a 35-year marriage that ended in 2003 when they died four months apart.

Peeking behind the curtain at the personas of Penn & Teller ONSTAGE, THEY’RE A MYSTERY— that’s the point. Few magicians have bewitched, bedazzled and befuddled America—and Las Vegas, in particular—as long as loquacious Penn Jillette and his decidedly un-loquacious partner, the single-monikered Teller. Want to know how they achieve the seemingly unachievable in the illusionary arts? Not happening, kids. That’s primo-confidential. Other info about the mysterioso magic mavens is not. A few facts about this iconic act: We fibbed. Teller is not technically single-monikered. He’s actually Raymond Joseph Teller. Just not on the marquee. Along with ex-partner Weir Chrisemer (who later quit show business), the duo gained notice as a trio in an act called The Asparagus Valley Cultural Society, performing at San Francisco’s Phoenix Theater. Previously, Teller had teamed with Chrisemer for an act called The Othmar Schoeck Society for the Preservation of Weird and Disgusting Music. Marquee assemblers are eternally grateful for their breakup. How to put this? Well, in 1999, Penn was granted a patent for a hot tub jet he designed to … um … make

women feel good—inspired after taking a soak with Debbie Harry. Teller’s voiceless persona originated when he performed magic at college frat parties, as he discovered that when he shut his trap, frat boys focused more on his magic and less on heckling and throwing beer on him. Would that work with heckled standup comics? Probably not. Among their numerous TV guest appearances, the duo were characters renamed Rebo & Zooty in an episode of TV’s Babylon 5, and in Katy Perry’s 2009 video, “Waking Up in Vegas,” the singer tossed the twosome out of a hotel room. Often asked about his one red fingernail, Penn wrote on Twitter: “Wear my Dad’s ring and my Mom’s nail polish. Just for remembrance and respect.” Shade? “Jelly Apple Red” by Essie. Books? “They’ve penned a ton of them, many cheekily titled. Among their joint tomes: Penn & Teller’s Cruel Tricks for Dear Friends, Penn & Teller’s How to Play with Your Food and Penn & Teller’s How to Play in Traffic. Many honors have been bestowed on the duo, including the 2005 Richard Dawkins Award, honoring
those who raise public awareness of atheism. They did not thank God in their acceptance speech. Though he has called Teller his best friend, Penn has said that the two share few common interests, and that unlike famously volatile partnerships based in intense personal relationships—such as Jerry Lewis and Dean Martin, or John Lennon and Paul McCartney—they benefit professionally from giving each other “space” in their offstage lives. Teller has confirmed that dynamic (yes, Teller actually speaks during interviews). Proving the previous point, here’s a choice quote from Teller, speaking about not speaking: “People come up to me on the street and make some little joke—like they’ll say, ‘Excuse me, sir, what time is it?’ And I’ll say, you know, ‘5:15,’ and they’ll say, ‘Hey! Made you talk!’ And that’s merely a way of saying, ‘I know your work and I like you.’’’ We’ll give the final word to his chattier partner, as Penn pondered his future: “I intend to do the Penn & Teller show until they pry my cheesy magic wand from my cold dead fingers.” Perhaps not the ideal marketing slogan, but nonetheless … good to hear.

Marvel Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N. is a completely immersive experience By MATT KELEMEN
WHEN THE AVENGERS FIRST ASSEMBLED IN THE 1963 DEBUT ISSUE OF THEIR EPONYMOUS COMIC BOOK, there was no way creators Stan Lee and Jack Kirby could have known they were launching a legacy that would expand into animation, countless spinoffs, a movie franchise and, finally, a Scientific Training and Intelligence Operative Tactical Network located in Las Vegas. Marvel Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N. opened at Treasure Island last May, offering visitors a chance to immerse themselves in all things 60 7.9.17 LasVegasMagazine.com
Avengers while training to become agents of S.T.A.T.I.O.N. For Marvel Comics fans, it’s an attraction whose time has come. Most of the original Avengers comic lineup are represented in their Marvel Cinematic Universe form, with Captain America’s exhibit coming first on the walking tour. The evolution of 4F World War Two enlistee Steve Rogers into a red, white and blue superhero, thanks to an experimental serum, is related with illuminated displays that look designed for a movie set. Interactive features allow
agent trainees to gauge coordination and grip strength. An app available as a mobile download or handheld S.T.A.T.I.O.N. device continues to provide audio narration as the Captain America room leads to Bruce Banner’s laboratory, where the Hulk’s brain can be examined via video monitors. Some heroes’ costumes are assembled together in display rooms (Black Widow, Hawkeye), while others have entire rooms dedicated to their legacy. Thor’s hammer is mounted in a large room, surrounded by a Bottom center photo by Tomek Pleskaczynski

semicircle of floor-to-ceiling displays dedicated to the god from Asgard, where guests can vainly attempt to wield it with their mortal strength. The Iron Man room has multiple Stark Industries-designed suits on display, including a primitive prototype and gargantuan Hulkbuster. The Vision’s birth cradle and wormholegenerating Tesseract are represented in all their sci-fi wonder. Both science and fiction are well represented in general. There’s a lot of reading that can be done, with the S.T.A.T.I.O.N. itself serving as All other photos by Christopher DeVargas
an educational primer for all things Avengers. Novices can be schooled on the backgrounds of many main characters and plot elements while more advanced trainees can expand on their knowledge base with esoteric information. Einstein’s influence on the fictional space portals of Asgard is explained, and Iron Man Neural Interface Training enables guests to experience flight and fight simulation through the power of their own eyesight. The interactive aspects of Marvel’s Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N. reach a climax at the end of
the training, with visitors taking on the powers of one of six Avengers to fight super-villain Ultra as a team. More interaction awaits in the 7,500-foot retail section, where action figures, apparel and other assorted collectibles are for sale. It’s a good 60-to-90-minute experience depending on how much interaction and information one can handle in one visit, but for fans of Marvel’s most venerable superhero team it’s a rare chance to be fully immersed in a universe that once only existed in comic books and imaginations.
