Mario Lopez In VEGAS! Celebrates New Book & Birthday W/Wife Courtney


At Andreas
Extra! host Mario Lopez and his wife Courtney Mazza Lopez celebrated their respective birthdays and the launch of his new book, "Just Between Us,” in high style last night at Andrea’s restaurant and XS nightclub in Encore at Wynn Las Vegas.

Before meeting up with their group of 12 friends for dinner, the two lovebirds stopped in the lounge at Andrea's where Mario sipped on a Sinatra Smash cocktail in front of a giant photograph of Andrea Wynn’s eyes emanating from the LED screen behind the bar.

Mario and Courtney then stepped up onto the celebrity hotspot's terraced dining room to join their party where they experienced Executive Chef Joseph Elevado’s mastery of Asian flavors. The table shared a chef’s sashimi platter, crispy tuna, hamachi sudachi, special crab roll, spicy tuna roll, shrimp and burdock roll, California roll, Wagyu and lobster roll, soft shell crab roll, scallops, seared salmon, sea bass, short rib, miso black cod, New York strip, five spice lobster, chili shrimp tempura, shrimp pad Thai and a variety of vegetable sides. The table drank Moscow Mule, Sinatra Smash, Asian Pear and Bringing Sexy Back specialty cocktails.

For dessert, Courtney was surprised with a presentation of celebratory cake pops for her birthday while the table nibbled on a flight of mini ice cream cones and a flaming Mt. Fuji. Mario quickly posted on his Twitter account “Birthday girl @CourtneyMLopez crushin the cake pops @AndreasEncore.”  He also posted a photo of the cozy couple toasting together at Andrea’s.
 
At XS
Shortly after midnight, the group made their way to XS nightclub to continue the celebration. With Courtney by his side, Mario led the group into the venue. He began grinning and was overheard saying “whoa” when he saw the LED screens flash “Happy Birthday Mario.” Guests went wild as Mario, Courtney and friends were escorted in style down the nightclub’s signature golden staircase with 10 beautiful XS Angels flanking both sides, waiving light wands to direct them to their stage side table. As soon as they arrived, the group began taking and posing for photos.

Once they got settled, the XS Angels presented Mario with a three-tiered black and gold birthday cake. He posed for photos as confetti poured down and the XS Angels waved sparklers and signs spelling out “Mario.” Mario posted a photo of his cake presentation to his Instagram account with the caption “Things are starting to get crazy here @XSLasVegas.”

At 1 a.m., XS staff surprised Courtney with a three-tiered sparkly pink birthday cake to ensure she had her own special moment. XS Angels waved sparklers and held signs spelling out “Courtney.”

The group danced and partied into the early morning hours as headliners Morgan Page and Fedde Le Grand owned the stage.

LA Clippers In Vegas...Where???

Thursday night at TAO Asian Bistro in Las Vegas, the Los Angeles Clippers enjoyed a team dinner while in town for training camp. The group, which included Chris Paul, DeAndre Jordan, Blake Griffin, Matt Barnes, Glen "Big Baby" Davis and Jordan Farmer among others dined on TAO signature entrées and Chris Paul's favorite dessert, the LAVO Oreo Zeppole brought over from the Italian restaurant in the Palazzo. Towards the end of dinner, Big Baby Davis asked the TAO lounge DJ to play his song "Big Baby Gon’ Turn It Up" which is currently available on iTunes. As the song played throughout the restaurant, Big Baby ripped open the curtains in the private dining room and gave guests in the restaurant an impromptu concert, lip-synching to his own song and dancing with his teammates. The restaurant diners loved it and danced along with him as he entertained the crowd.

Upstairs at TAO Nightclub, hockey forward and captain of the Colorado Avalanche, Gabriel Landeskog was spotted at a VIP table with teammates. The team is in town for a pre-season game against the Los Angeles Kings on Saturday.
