Where are the real celebs?????

She no longer looks like this...

I seem to be having remarkable bad luck with Celeb spotting in Vegas…I am not sure what’s wrong! So far I have spotted or been in the close vicinity of the following…Larry King (Nice but very small and wrinkly)…ICE T…(same as Larry but not so small), Montel Williams…(he is like the male version of Oprah here…think his talk show has been in SA several times…very nice dude...played Craps with him…rather he played, I chatted…) He only knew two things about SA really…(a) that his show was syndicated there and (b) the time he met Charlize on Oscar night!

So, so far a few quazi-celebs and Larry, right? You can imagine then, how pissed off I was that today I am in a lunch meeting with a magazine (like that “Lunch Meeting”…its very USA baby)…and who should be sitting at the table next me but Princess Lea! Her of Star Wars fame…yes indeed…Natalie Portman’s child was having a crab salad and ice tea (not the rapper, the drink) right next to me!

Okay she has aged a bit…well a lot actually…if she put her infamous slave bikini costume on now it might have turned a few stomachs at the restaurant. I am not sure why I found this so amazing….I guess my childhood wet dreams of me, my light saber and Lea came flooding back or something but I found it fascinating. Being the typical South African I pretended to unaffected and I didn’t ask for an autograph…but hell it made the meeting interesting!

So far we have done some great parties and some amazing clubs. Ghost is perhaps one of Las Vegas slickest places at the moment – located at the top of the Palms Hotel, its has an amazing view of the strip from the 60th floor or something like that and also sports a glass floor which looks right down onto the swimming pool below…believe me it took a few Jacks before I even ventured out onto it!

We hit Body English at the Hard Rock Casino on Saturday. Naturally I hate waiting in queues, but as we are well connected in Sin City we were escorted past the line (waiting time 2 hours!!) and through the velvet rope. Its party central in there, 3 floors, huge dance floor…its insane and typically Las Vegas!

Before that we hit Beachers Madhouse (http://www.beachersmadhouse.com/) which is at the Joynt in the hard Rock – the party is a literally a madhouse of strippers, dwarves and some guy that skips with women on his back…think I have seen it all now!

Okay its bed time for me…you guys are just waking up!
