Singer Sean Paul hosted and performed at Tao in The Venetian on Friday night alongside DJ Mauricio. The Jamaican singer dined at the restaurant before making his way upstairs to the nightclub; actor and comedian Pauly Shore also dined at Tao.
Sean, joined by a group of friends including Luxor headliner magician Criss Angel (“Believe”), stood atop his booth to look at the crowded dance floor. His set included “Like Glue,” “Gimme the Light,” “Temperature” and “Give It Up to Me.”
Afterward, he was presented with a three-tier cake topped with a gold chain in celebration of his 40th birthday this month. Also at Tao: Julius Peppers of the Chicago Bears celebrating his 33rd birthday with friends and Elvis Dumervil of the Denver Broncos partying with friends at a VIP table.
Last Thursday at Tao, Dallas Cowboys players Morris Claiborne and Gerald Sensabaugh partied together with friends at a VIP table on the dance floor.
At sister hotspot Marquee in The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, singer Jay Sean was seen with friends at a set of VIP booths in the club’s main room. The group enjoyed a special delivery of cupcakes while taking in the sounds of DJ Dirty South.

In the spirit of Venice, The Venetian is a little piece of romantic Italy right here in Las Vegas. The Venetian is an "all-suite" hotel, with rooms accented with plush linens and Italian marble. The 4,027 suites are divided into two towers: The 36-story Venetian Tower that offers guests a taste of luxurious Las Vegas and the Venezia suites, which guarantee 12 floors of high-end elegance. The top five floors are the hotel's highest level of luxury with its private access, concierge lounge, upgraded features and even a dedicated staff.
Entertainment at the Venetian includes shows such as Tim and Faith - Soul2Soul, featuring Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, and Rock of Ages.
The flagship of Venetian nightlife is TAO, an ultra-hip nightclub located inside of TAO Asian Bistro. V Bar is The Venetian's super smooth ultra lounge, made by the owners of New York City's club Lotus and Los Angeles' super swank Sunset Room.
The Venetian features 19 restaurants including Thomas Keller's award-winning French restaurant Bouchon, Mario Batali's B&B Ristorante, Aquaknox for fresh seafood and the 42,000 square foot TAO Asian Bistro. There's also the food court inside the Canal Shoppes for those looking for a quick bite.
Guests can float along The Grand Canal Shops in an authentic Italian gondola ride and pass stores like Burberry and Kenneth Cole along the way. And if you haven't caught a real celeb, on the street in Vegas, you can head over to Madame Tussauds to check out a wax version.
