Miss Knockout Contestant continues!! Sexy, beautiful girls in Bikinis at Studio 54!


Miss Knockout People's Choice winner Stacy Alexander

Miss Knockout Contestants

Miss Knockout Contestant Brittany Jenee

The search continued on 3/24 for MGM Grand’s official 2011 boxing ring girls with the final preliminary round of the Miss Knockout competition at Studio 54 inside MGM Grand last night. Fifteen sexy, bikini-clad ladies entered the contest, all eager for the chance to make it to the grand final competition next Thursday, March 31.

Excitement filled the air as the hot contestants posed on the red carpet outside the iconic nightclub. Fans rushed to surround the ladies and take pictures as they flexed their rock-hard, glitter-covered bodies and flashed their sexy smiles.

Inside Studio 54, the illustrious nightclub was filled from top to bottom with boxing-themed decorations. Punching bags hung from the ceiling, and the always sexy Studio 54 dancers tantalized the crowd with a red-hot routine to Lady Gaga’s “Born This Way” on a stage set to look like a boxing ring. The crowd anxiously awaited on the dance floor for the competition to begin as they moved to the electric sounds of DJ Forbes’ hot beats, like Chris Brown’s “Yeah 3x.”

At last, the 15 ladies made their way on stage as Studio 54’s own DJ Loczi introduced each contestant. The bikini babes worked the crowd, swayed their hips and flipped their hair, all trying to grab the attention of the judges, including KTNV’s “Cool in Vegas” reporter Molly Sullivan. Not only did each contestant wow the crowd with their drop-dead gorgeous looks. Their shining personalities from Loczi’s onstage questions had fans cheering in awe for the lovely ladies.

The choice was a tough one as the judges tallied up their scores and the crowd enthusiastically casted their vote for the “people’s choice” award. Lucky ladies Brittany Jenee, Kristin Ratatori, Marisa Rivera, Jessica Buehler and Stacy Alexander were announced as the finalists to move on to the grand finale competition where they will have the opportunity to compete for the official Miss Knockout title, a $5,000 prize, an official contract with MGM Grand and a VIP party with their friends at Studio 54 after every boxing match. Alexander took away the coveted People’s Choice award, and the ladies expressed their gratitude as they waved and blew kisses to the fans and judges.

All of the winners from the four preliminary rounds will gather next Thursday, March 31 at Studio 54 for the final competition and the chance to be one of the three lucky ladies crowned Miss Knockout.

Fan of Dead Pan Humor? Then you will really enjoy Steven Wright! At The Orleans!



Deadpan Stand-Up Comedian Steven Wright to Perform at The Orleans Showroom, March 26-27

Billed as the “Confucius of Comedy” by the New York Post, Academy Award-winner and Grammy Award nominee Steven Wright brings his trademark wit, absurdist one-liners and monotone voice to The Orleans Showroom, March 26 and 27, each evening at 8 p.m.

Beginning his comedy career at the age of 23 as a regular performer at Ding Ho’s Comedy Club and Chinese Restaurant in Cambridge, Mass., Wright got his first big break and was booked on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. Following his on-air performance Wright was invited to return the following week for a rare back-to-back performance, launching his career into high gear. His new kind of comedy and lackluster voice caught the comedy world’s attention and he appeared on Saturday Night Live, Late Night with David Letterman and many reoccurring appearances of The Tonight Show. As his fame grew, he was given two of his own HBO stand-up specials titled, A Steven Wright Special and Wicker Chairs and Gravity.

In 1989, he received an Academy Award for Best Short Film for his satiric film, The Appointments of Dennis Jennings, which he co-starred and wrote. Wright has appeared in several other small and big screen films including Mike Myers’ So I Married an Axe Murder, Desperately Seeking Susan, Half-Baked and has lent his voice to films for children including The Swan Princess and Babe 2: Pig in the Big City. He also appeared in Coffee and Cigarettes and The Aristocrats.

Wright’s ironic, deadpan comedy and bizarre observations continue to earn him regular guest spots on the late night talk show circuit with David Letterman, Jay Leno, Jimmy Kimmel and Craig Ferguson while spreading laughs, giggles and smiles while touring the U.S., Canada and overseas.

Showtime is 8 p.m. Tickets are available starting from $34.95, plus tax and convenience fees, and can be purchased by calling the Box Office at 702.365.7075 or visiting www.orleanscasino.com. Save on convenience fees by purchasing the tickets in person at Coast Casinos.
