David King's "Shades of Temptation" at New York-New York.

Topless temptresses and bare-chested beefcake open up a world of guilty pleasures in the new show “Shades of Temptation” at New York-New York just steps away from the eroticism of Cirque du Soleil’s “Zumanity.”

How sizzling and torrid can one Strip casino resort get? British theatrical producer David King really had to push the envelope with his sexy and new production to compete -- and thanks to being inspired by the bestselling, racy S&M novel “Fifty Shades of Grey,” he’s succeeded, and as we Limeys would say, “Splendidly!”

Our photo gallery from contributing photographer Tom Donoghue tells the story better than any of my words can say. Suffice to say, it’s hot, very hot, with stunning women, and the girls will go gaga, too, over the gorgeous male dancers and “American Idol” vocalist David Hernandez, who gets all wrapped up by the wanton women, too.

The provocative and preening princesses use his body as a canvas to draw lipstick lines on while he sings “Want You to Be My Baby.” David finished 12th on Season 7 of the hit Fox show. Maybe if he’d added the lusting lipstick ladies to his act back then, he’d have been winner takes all.

Lose your inhibitions because this is a show that comes complete with a School for Sex. You can unleash your lust and peel back your passionate desires. The scene with three female dominatrixes taunting and teasing three beauties trapped in a cage with two “Eyes Wide Shut” masked men may be one of the hottest sex scenes ever staged in Las Vegas, and just when you don’t think that can be topped, along comes a French maid and her mistress.

Add in handcuffs and strawberries, and you’ll think you’re inside the filming of an adults-only film. One number has the glamour girls half-dressed in men’s suits -- outrageously brazen. The tension and rising heat of the menage a trois with two men and one woman gets torrid and is followed by three topless models and a male photographer that add to the naughty numbers.

No wonder David sings “Satisfaction” as the dancers smolder through striptease numbers in their stockings and corsets, and after 50 ways to rope your lover, the production reaches a climax with an erotically lit orgy scene.

Settle back and enjoy the photos. Then go experience the forbidden for yourselves. It is a turn-on journey into guilty pleasures and sizzling sexuality.
