Welcome to Kimo’s Vegas… The Players Edge!!

Ho, Ho Holly Madison (Hef’s ex) & Criss Angel celebrated their birthdays (41 for him and 29 for her) at Believe. Later at LAX, the birthday boy was spocked throwing money into the crowd.

PAUL RUDITIS has written over thirty books his latest is called “The Girls Next Door” and takes you into the Playboy Mansion, behind the scenes of the TV show and into the minds of Hugh Hefner’s girlfriends, Holly Madison, Bridget Marquardt, and Kendra Wilkinson. See the girls sign copies at Palms and Caesars Palace on season five… hard core fans will be happy to know season six is a go with a set of new girls.

What are the odds… Las Vegas got its worst snow fall (or is it the best…) in the last 30 years, closing roads and canceling and rerouting flights. The best snow quote goes to blogger David McKee who said “On Wednesday night -- after far too many glasses of wine, I went to sleep in Las Vegas... and woke up in Reno!”

If you’ve seen David Copperfield's An Intimate Evening of Grand Illusion at the Hollywood Theatre you may remember the illusion near the end of the show where he walks through a huge industrial and then makes it disappear. Last week an assistant was pulled into the fans spinning blades breaking his arm in multiple places and cutting his face. Show goers say they saw him fall to the ground and there was blood everywhere. The assistant is reported to be in good spirits joking with friends and co-workers after waking from surgery. 

6,119 closet Santas from all over the World ran/walked in the fourth annual Las Vegas Great Santa Run on the Fremont Street Experience. The Guinness Book of World Records was set last year when the run had 7,269 St. Nick’s.
