Which celebrities openly made out in front of people on New Year’s Eve? Which famous guy hit on a whole restaurant booth of women? I have answers.
Kissing-happy John Legend performed at Aria’s club Haze after he and model Chrissy Teigen made out in front of cameras at midnight.
Kissy-face singer Miguel sang at club Tao in The Venetian only after making out with girlfriend Nazanin Mandi.
The flirter was Olympic gold medalist Ryan Lochte. He went to SHe by Morton’s in Aria with Olympic friends Cullen Jones and Ed Moses. He chatted up an entire booth of ladies, did shots with them, and drank peach champagne with his pals.
Vegas’ own Ne-Yo took an entourage of 40 people to Caesars Palace’s club Pure, counted down to midnight from the balcony, then went inside and performed.
Adam Levine and fiancee Behati Prinsloo went to Light nightclub in Mandalay Bay after eating at the restaurant’s incredible sushi restaurant Kumi.
Arnold Schwarzenegger and his girlfriend, Heather Milligan, hung with a few friends at Planet Hollywood’s Strip House for the second year in a row.
Floyd Mayweather was at Tao with friends, and he requested songs from DJ Politik.
Paris Hilton DJ’d as planned at Hyde Bellagio. Her family was there. But her boyfriend, River Viiperi, was not, so she texted him a video of her singing, then he Tweeted that video of his “gorgeous blondie.”
Eva Simons also sang at Hyde.
Katy Perry performed a private concert at Caesars Palace while boyfriend John Mayer “watched inconspicuously from the sound booth,” reports Mark Gray for People magazine. The couple then did post-midnight Dom Perignon revelry at their own private party in the hotel’s new bar Fizz.
NeNe Leakes Tweeted from Vegas, but it wasn’t clear where she was.
And Bruno Mars performed his Cosmopolitan show, then went to a soft opening for Cosmopolitan’s fancy new bar with the name I can never remember, Rose. Rabbit. Lie.
TODAY IN BRITNEY
“Divas” drag star Frank Marino met Britney Spears at her New Year’s Eve show. That crazy Marino, who just got more plastic surgery as I reported recently, told Britney, “You better work, bitch,” a play off her “Work Bitch” song. Britney played along and told him, “You better return to work, bitch.”
HOME TWEET VEGAS
@chrissyteigen (after that make-out session with John Legend): “I enjoy opening and not using Las Vegas minibar intimacy kits”. (She attached a photo of herself holding a pink feather to her face.)
