Cher in Las Vegas

cher

Over a year ago Celine Dion announced that she would not renew her contract to perform at Caeser's Palace. Since then it has been rumored that Cher might fill the spot left open by Celine. It's finally been announced and tickets went on sale today for concert's beginning in May 2008. She is reportedly contracted to perform approximately 200 concerts over the next three years. Tickets range from $86 - $227.

You know I'm going... ;-)

Now, before anyone starts complaining that she already had her fairwell tour (that went on for three years...) in all fairness, she just said she wouldn't TOUR any more. This is a resident show. So just let it go!

Caeser's Palace is now home to resident performers: Elton John, Bette Midler, Cher and Jerry Seinfeld. It seems that Caeser's has become the performance Mecca for gay icons in Vegas. Which is oddly fitting considering it is "Caeser's" Palace. I wonder if that says anything about Seinfeld??? Highly doubtful. I worked with him on a performance a few years back and would say he's one of the straightest performers I've met. The gaydar didn't even wake up.

Anyway... Anyone up for a little Viva Las Vegas??? I'm ready for a return trip!
