Las Vegas Show Reviews
iCandy The Show by Guy Chapman
iCandy Las Vegas – A Sexy Night On The Town – When it comes to the art of burlesque, there are two things to take into consideration: Have a little bit of tease, and leave the rest to imagination. For that reason, the talented ladies of iCandy The Show at the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino put on a show that is both polished and sexy, while remaining true to form to the spirit of burlesque. Located within the Saxe Theatre in the Miracle Mile Shops, the showroom treats awaiting patrons to a collection of film clips of vintage burlesque dancers (including Bettie Paige) as guests find their seats.
Newkirk’s Notes – comments on Las Vegas from AccessVegas.Com publisher Ted Newkirk:
Hello From Las Vegas – We’re smack dab in the holiday season which means unusually low readership. Many are wrapped up (no pun intended) in celebration, friends and family, TV specials, and what have you. So, we’re still getting you the latest Vegas news, but otherwise going to hold off on commentary and readers letters until after the first of the year when everybody will be back to their normal routines.
From all of us here in Las Vegas, we want to wish you a very merry Christmas and a happy holiday Season!
The Christmas Spirit – Usually,
I leave you with a great holiday photo from Las Vegas this time of
year. But… I’d like to do you one better:
Many of the stars of the Las Vegas shows you know
and love are doing a Christmas Special live from Las Vegas this Friday
at 3:00 PM
Pacific Time. And… if that time does not work out for you, it will be
played throughout the weekend. Live, streaming, online.
Head on over to Vegas
Video Network Live from Friday at 3:00 PM on through the
weekend to enjoy some Las Vegas holiday cheer!
