  1. Wow!!! I live in a world where having Criss Angel, Holly Madison, and Joey Fatone makes your event "star studded"? Really? Having "Carrot Top" at anything just means there is free food available. Ah-to think this group compares to the true giants of entertaiment that Vegas had in years gone by is incredible!!! Forrest Duke is turning over in his grave right now!!!

  2. I am not familiar with Peter Lik but his smile is contagious and his photographs are spectacular.

    Holly Madison looks really great in the all black dress that is styled on the 1950's balloon dresses with bat wing sleeves.

  3. I think someone needs to learn what the term "star-studded" means. Or just desperate times in this town.
