The Parlay
Starts up in March at Planet Hollywood, 3500 Las Vegas Blvd. South; 702.791.7827
This burlesque trots out twenty naughtily dressed dancers, lavishly twisted fairytale sets, and an all-female band to tell the story of how the "Peep Diva" (Mel B, aka Scary Spice) helps "Bo Peep" (Kelly Monaco) transform from a shy, timid shepherdess into a cleavage-wielding, hip-thrusting, strip-teasing sex kitten, just like her mentor. It's lonely at the top, Scary Spice.
Book tickets now at LasVegasPeepShow.comHarrah's is offering the marginally talented a stupendous opportunity: sign up your fake band, pick a number from a preset song list (Metallica, Alice in Chains, Chili Peppers, etc), then faux-jam your way through a series of local, regional, and national competitions to win a trip to Atlantic City, where your "band" will open for the B-52s at the House of Blues, and receive $10,000 -- which you'll immediately blow on mock-tails and candy cigarettes.
Sign-up starts March 1st. More info at Harrahs.com6611 Schuster Street St; 702.407.1967
Since times are tough for everyone, each month, Eminence picks a different luxury ride from its fleet of Lambos, Ferraris, Aston Martins, Maseratis, Bentleys, and Porsches, and slashes serious cash off the day-rental rate. This month: a Gallardo Spyder for $1,499, which still sounds outrageous, but is actually down $400 from the regular price (what were you expecting, a Valpak coupon?).

The northernmost Vegas icon is offering absurdly southern rates, plus package deals including free room upgrades, 2-for-1 show tickets, and tickets to thrill rides like "Insanity", which takes you 64 feet over the edge of the famous Tower and spins you with 3 G's of force -- so they're compensating for the cheap rooms by shaking the change out of your pocket.
Reservations at Stratosphere.comFeast your depraved eyes on this mugshot slide show, starring 50 of the city's most prolific prostitutes, arrested on charges of loitering, prostitution, and trespassing -- on your heart.
