90210 STAR CELEBRATES A “NIP & TUCK” 21ST BIRTHDAY
It was a double celebration for Hollywood newcomer AnnaLynne McCord on her visit to Vegas. She celebrated her 21st birthday at the hot Pure nightclub in Caesars Palace, and also the great news that she’s joining the cast of the new Beverly Hills 90210 series.
The young actress, who is recognized from last season’s Nip/Tuck plastic surgery drama series, arrived shortly after midnight looking stunning in a bright blue dress.
She’d enjoyed a fabulous “family and friends” yellowtail jalapeño and Kobe sliders dinner at the Strip’s chic sushi spot, Social House. At Pure, AnnaLynn danced and sang along to the mega mix spun by DJ Hollywood as the Las Vegas Pussycat Dolls serenaded her with a sexy rendition of happy birthday, complete with a gorgeous cake.
She blew out her candles and took photos with fans mingling with her party through the night.
One of Maxim’s Hot 100 beautiful people of 2008, actress Ashley Scott celebrated her birthday just three resorts north on the Strip at the new sister nightclub, Christian Audigier, in Treasure Island.
Celebrity friends including actress Amy Smart and comedic actor David Spade joined her large party sprawled over two of the nightclub’s biggest VIP tables. They sipped on Grey Goose Vodka cocktails and danced to the master mixes of resident DJ CyberKid until the lights were turned on pre-dawn. Ashley and Amy posed for photos with lucky fans after the birthday girl was presented with a beautiful yellow cake topped with crimson red roses and a slew of flashy sparklers. Revelers throughout Club A all joined in to sing-along to a hip-hop rendition of “Happy Birthday.”
An impressive group of professional athletes has literally called the Pure nightclub their second home the past few days. Kansas City Chiefs running back and now frequent Luxe Life boldprint name, Larry Johnson partied until the early morning hours sipping on Dom Perignon Champagne.
He took over the mic chatted to the crowd and let fans take photos. Close by on the main stage, Marcus Banks of the Miami Heat enjoyed the company of friends; Houston Rockets point guard Rafer Alston snagged a supreme spot on the dance floor where he moved and grooved to the sweet sounds of DJ Hollywood and Computer from the reality show Adventures in HollyHood.
Meanwhile at Pure’s other sister club, LAX in the Luxor, NBA player Earl Watson from the Oklahoma City franchise partied until pre-dawn with shots of Patron until the club closed.
Also partying there were Amare Stoudemire of the Phoenix Suns who stuck to Patron shots and Grey Goose vodka and Antoine Walker, now with the Memphis Grizzlies who ordered up fine Perrier Jouet rose champagne! Another Patron booster was actor and standup comic Bill Bellamy. On the lower level dance floor professional boxer Daniel Judah mingled with fans while Mindfreak magician Criss Angel watched over all from a lavish VIP loft.
I’d be remiss not to mention Pure’s other sister club Aura even though its 3000 miles away from the Vegas Strip In the Bahamas. Remiss because that’s where partner Stevie Davidovich, subject of a Vegas IRS investigation, is allegedly running the action these days and it’s where the Pure club there played host to celebrity guest DJ Nick Cannon and his new wife Mariah Carey.
There’s no lessening in the newlywed’s passion and in-between the open hugging and kissing Mariah was the most laid-back ever, even posing for photos, kicking back and greeting fans way into the early hours.
They also greeted Miss California USA Raquel Beezley, Miss Nebraska USA Micaela Johnson and Miss Arkansas USA Rachel Howells and vacationing Sacramento Kings player Kenny Thomas and his lovely wife.
