How A Rock Of Ages Lead Rocks (and Relaxes) Vegas
Time for another My Vegas. It’s hard trying to keep tabs on all the happenin’ stuff in Sin City, so we’re calling in expert advice. Every time we bump into a Vegas celeb, we’ll grill them on where they rate and what they like to do (yes, handily, this can also double as a stalker’s guide to Vegas).
Readers may not yet relate the celeb featured in our latest installment of My Vegas as a Vegas celeb. For good reason since we grilled Kyle Lowder, who plays Stacee Jaxx in Rock of Ages, a show that just made it's debut at the Venetian a few short days ago. But we're told soap opera fans may recognize him from...wikipedia...wikipedia....Days of Our Lives or The Bold and the Beautiful.

Calm Down, Peeps: Coco Is Back Tonight
Ok, everyone. Just breathe deeply. It's all going to ok. Ice had a tiff with Coco. Coco skipped on peeps(how) to go went to New York to see Ice. (See update below.) Ice probably laid down some law and order. (You knew we couldn't resist that.) And, tonight, she's back in the saddle corset on the Peepshow stage once again.
Recently, VegasChatter asked Coco about her Vegas, where she likes to hang when it comes to dining, dancing, relaxing and more. Ultimate fans intent on scoring a photo or an autograph, if you can't track down Coco in Vegas now, there's not much more we can do for you. Here's Coco's world, right now:

Fat Frank, Absinthe's Clown On The Wire, Shares His Vegas Secrets
Fat Frank's first step on the high wire occurred in a dream. His Absinthe co-star and mentor, Tony Hernandez, suggested he join his team in attempting one of the most dangerous and deadly high-wire stunts -- a seven-man pyramid. (We’ve provided video below.)
Frank had never even been on a high wire, but Tony believed, instructed him on the considerable risk and gave him a month to think about it. One night, Frank had a dream of a long high wire heading off into a black abyss, with nothing but darkness below. In the dream, he took one step onto the wire, and then immediately woke up. He awoke with the knowledge that since he had already taken the first step, the next would surely be easier.
For three years, Fat Frank has lived on that wire. And, behind that character is a classically trained actor, clown and acrobat who’s the latest interview in our My Vegas series. Meet Paul Lopez. The unlikely sex-symbol of the cast of Absinthe. If you’ve seen the show and, you should, nightly he creates an indelible and lasting impression. We won’t give away his crowning glory. It’s for you to discover. Once seen, never forgotten. And, why Frank? Well, in a warped version of the Rat Pack…

Melody Sweets: Hot Chocolate, Mimosas, and Margaritas
Time for another My Vegas. It’s hard trying to keep tabs on all the happenin’ stuff in Sin City, so we’re calling in expert advice. Every time we bump into a Vegas celeb, we’ll grill them on where they rate and what they like to do (yes, handily, this can also double as a stalker’s guide to Vegas).
No we haven't completely lost our minds yet, although we have had our doubts, and this isn't a VegasChatter Flashback. This My Vegas installment continues our discussion with Melody Sweets since we had to break to cool off, one too many times a lot to ask of the Absinthe star.
Last week, Melody let us peek behind the sparkly curtain to learn about performing as a child, leaving New York City, starring in the absolutely excellent Absinthe, and hinted at her future plans. Today, we add Melody's favorite Vegas places to our little black stalking book.

Absinthe's Melody Sweets Talks To Us About Snakes and Sock Puppets
The Green Fairy, star of Absinthe, object of our affection, burlesque star, top Halloween costume idea. Anyway you slice and dice it, you can't help but notice Miss Melody Sweets and wonder what tickles those green feathers. Which is why we camped outside her dressing room in a jet black wig and panty hose until she caved asked her nicely for an interview for the sake of our readers.

Our Pop-In With Food Network Star's Vic Vegas
Former Food Network Star contestant Vic Vegas popped up with a special restaurant menu at Rumor Resort and before we got our creme bruleed last night we had (quite) a few questions for Vic on his Vegas intentions and reality show life. We also managed to pry a few of his Vegas favs for the record. And by pry, we mean ask once - the guy loves to talk Vegas just about as much as we do.
After five years of trying and two Food Network Challenges, Vic landed himself a spot on the seventh and most watched season of Food Network Star. And to think, we skipped an SAT question if the answer didn't immaculately #2 that circle with a wooden pencil after three seconds. We're glad Vic has more patience than us so that the rest of the world could discover what we've known for awhile: the hairless tattooed wonder knows how to cook.

Dolly Parton: Good. Strip Clubs: Not So Much. This Is Josh Strickland's Vegas
Josh Strickland: good. Josh Strickland x 2: better.
Another Wednesday, another My Vegas. It’s hard trying to keep tabs on all the happenin’ stuff in Sin City, so we’re calling in expert advice. From now on, every time we bump into a Vegas celeb, we’ll grill them on where they rate and what they like to do (yes, handily, this can also double as a stalker’s guide to Vegas).
There’s not much we can say about this one (apart from recalling the first time we saw him in Serendipity 3 with Holly Madison and we shrieked “WHO IS THAT BEAUTIFUL MAN, FOR VERILY HE IS LIKE AN ANCIENT GREEK STATUE” to our companion) so we’ll keep it short. One name: Josh Strickland. One action: swoon. Here’s where he and the gang (Holly Madison, Angel Porrino, Laura Croft and some of the girls of Peepshow) like to hang.

He Hates XS But Loves Excess: Here's Tom Lowe's Vegas
Another Wednesday, another My Vegas. It’s hard trying to keep tabs on all the happenin’ stuff in Sin City, so we’re calling in expert advice. From now on, every time we bump into a Vegas celeb, we’ll grill them on where they rate and what they like to do (yes, handily, this can also double as a stalker’s guide to Vegas).
You already know we heart Vegas! the Show and you probably have an inkling that we heart its star Tom Lowe just a little bit more. We still think he has the best back story in Vegas, so we took the opportunity to squeeze some more tidbits out of him about his favorite haunts. This is where you’ll find him (although you may need to break the law to do so. And in this case, VegasChatter totally condones lawlessness).

Bring Back Elvis, Hookers and Mobsters: It's Zowie Bowie's Vegas
UPDATE: Ignore any reference to lobsters you may have seen. As our commenter pointed out, he wants hookers and mobsters back. Which makes a lot more sense. Sorry, we must have got the giggles at the word "hookers" and lost concentration.
Another Wednesday, another My Vegas. It’s hard trying to keep tabs on all the happenin’ stuff in Sin City, so we’re calling in expert advice. From now on, every time we bump into a Vegas celeb, we’ll grill them on where they rate and what they like to do (yes, handily, this can also double as a stalker’s guide to Vegas).
This week, VegasChatter Towers is abuzz with excitement at the imminent return of Zowie Bowie to Red Rock (they kick off their residency Friday night), so to mark our giddiness properly, we asked the pair (Marley Taylor and Chris Phillips) to talk us through their favorite spots. Liking that zebra-print couch they’re on? It’s a VIP booth in the Rocks Lounge, where they’ll be based.
Before we start the video, we’d just like to note how completely enchanted we were by them – we’d been told by lots of people how lovely they were, but they were in the Tom Lowe realms of super-lovely. Funny, too - they more than lived up to expectation. And how lush does Marley look as a brunette? Anyhoo, enough gushing and crushing, here’s where to find them.

From now on, every time we bump into a Vegas celeb, we’ll grill them on where they rate and what they like to do (yes, handily, this can also double as a stalker’s guide to Vegas).
Last week we kicked off with Mr Las Vegas, Norm Clarke. This week, we branch out with what must be two of the hunkiest men on the Strip, Billy Jeffrey and Juan DeAngelo from the Chippendales. We caught them at their calendar launch party at Venus Pool Club. (Excuse us for shouting, it was really loud).

What's Your Vegas Nickname?
In a clever way to get folks to join their My Vegas networking site, Visit Las Vegas has created a Vegas nickname generator. Remember nickname generators were all the rage in 2001? We particularly spent many wasted cubicle hours with the mob nickname generator.
Anyways, the Vegas nickname generator works in a similar way except aside from entering your name, you also check off all the types of things you like to do in Vegas (doing shots and hooking up is not listed.)
