Check out Miss T & T and Erik Estrada & Carrot Top party for Cinco De Mayo!

Check out Miss T & T! Erik Estrada Celebrates Cinco de Mayo at Tacos & Tequila

Television icon Erik Estrada celebrated Cinco de Mayo with the best fiesta on the Strip at Tacos & Tequila (T&T) at Luxor last night. Hundreds gathered for the CHiP’s-inspired bash, including local celebrity talent and performers such as Carrot Top, “Baywatch” beauty Angelica Bridges and the cast of FANTASY, Defending The Caveman’s Paul Perroni, members from Thunder From Down Under, Sandra Benten and Lori Legacy from Menopause The Musical, comedian magician Murray Sawchuck and illusionist Jonathan Silver. The entertainers all walked the red carpet donning a traditional sombrero before heading inside to enjoy the fiesta.

In the midst of the excitement Estrada, Bridges and KVBC entertainment reporter Alicia Jacobs crowned “Miss T&T Hot Tamale,” Jennifer Affrot. Affrot was one of 11 contestants to compete in the all-out battle of brains, beauty and brawn to win the coveted title, a one-year modeling contract with T&T and Hennessey Black and a $5,000 cash. Her runner up, Rashel Razza took home a $500 cash prize.

The fiesta continued well into the night with live human rooster fighting competitions, a mischievous photo booth contest, a live mariachi band and resident DJ Ernan spinning the hottest beats. Partygoers enjoyed the second-annual fiesta calling it “the best on the Strip.” Owners Michael Frey and Craig Gilbert were enthusiastic about the turn out and are already planning next year’s event.

The Four Tops and their Soulful Classics coming to The Orleans!

Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Legends The Four Tops Bring Soulful Classics to The Orleans Showroom May 7-9 The Four Tops, whose meteoric rise to fame began with their 1964 Motown hit “Baby I Need Your Loving,” bring their soulful songs to The Orleans Showroom, May 7, 8 and 9. One of the few groups to have hits in three consecutive decades, The Four Tops’ songs were splashed across the pop and R&B music charts from the 1960s through the 1980s. “I Can’t Help Myself,” a 1965 R&B and pop smash, is one of Motown’s longest-running chart toppers. In the years that followed, The Four Tops continued to produce anthems that defined a generation, including such favorites as “It’s The Same Old Song,” “Reach Out I’ll Be There,” “Standing in the Shadows of Love” and “Bernadette.” Their extraordinary run of classics continued with “Shake Me, Wake Me,” “Ain’t No Woman” and “When She Was My Girl,” which went to No. 1 in 1981. Audiences also know the tunes of The Four Tops from their R&B hit “Are You Man Enough,” from the movie Shaft in Africa, and the song “Back To School Again,” heard in the film Grease 2. Their final solo Top 40 hit, “Indestructible,” was heard around the globe as the theme of the 1988 Summer Olympics, held in Seoul, South Korea. Showtime is 8 p.m. Tickets are available starting from $39.95, plus tax and convenience fees, and can be purchased by calling the Box Office at 702.365.7075 or visiting www.orleanscasino.com.

Coming soon to Cox Cable..Check out Chef Tina Martini!

M Resort Spa Casino and Cox Communications Partner to Bring “Martini Time with Chef Tina Martini” to Estimated 400,000 Households!
Officials from the M Resort Spa Casino and Cox Communications today announced an agreement to bring the M Resort’s innovative new cooking show, “Martini Time with Chef Tina Martini” to more than 400,000 households. The partnership enables the show to air on Cox 96 in Southern Nevada three times a day, two days a week beginning Monday, May 10. “This is an exciting relationship and one that I couldn’t be happier about,” said Anthony A. Marnell III, Chairman and CEO, M Resort. “Our goal with the show has been to provide a form of healthy entertainment – to educate and entertain the public. Now, with the help of Cox, we are able to further that goal, reaching even more people.” In addition to airing on Cox 96, “Martini Time with Chef Tina Martini” will also steam live on www.Cox96.net and be available via ON DEMAND (Cox Channel 1, Best of the Valley.) Those who tune into the show can expect to be greeted by Chef Tina Martini, also known as the “naturopathic chef.” Chef Tina’s unique ability to connect and educate people on the nutritional value of food we eat caught the attention of Cox Communications Vice President Steve Schorr. “This is great for the entire community,” said Schorr. “Not only will local families learn the secrets of one of our great chefs, but they will be able to gain delicious recipes that they can duplicate at home.” The format of the show will largely remain the same with opportunities for a live audience and special local celebrities to cook with Chef Tina during the filming. Shows will focus on three key areas of living healthy - nutrition, fitness and mind/body - while simultaneously providing easy recipes and practical kitchen advice, tips and techniques for the home chef. “It’s been a dream of mine to have my own television show,” said Chef Tina Martini. “I love what I do and I can’t wait to share that with more people. We have so much fun in the cooking studio – we’re really cooking and talking about the value of food in a fun and inspiring way. Now people at home get to see that!” Chef Tina will continue to perform her regular live shows Thursday-Sunday at 12 p.m. and 4 p.m. inside the custom cooking studio at the M Resort’s Studio B Buffet. Tickets to all shows are now $39.95 and include reserved seating inside the buffet. Tickets can be purchased through Ticketmaster online at www.ticketmaster.com or by calling 800-745-3000.
