It’s new website time, kids! Our sister site, SpyOnVegas.com, is launching version 3.0 of all the oh-crap-I-can’t-believe-I-did-that-last-night photos you can handle. We’ve seen it, and it’s completely awesome. You should make sure to refresh like a fiend today. To celebrate, The Bank at Bellagio hosts the launch with Steve Aoki in the DJ booth.

All-American Rejects singer Tyson Ritter was in at The Bank inside Bellagio Sunday night to do “Dirty Little Secret” among other songs when Avril Lavigne came out to join him on stage for two songs. Now everyone’s going to be like, “Oh, those two should totally date,” or however that would look when a 15-year-old girl texts it out. Which would totally fit Lavigne’s M.O. of trying to hang around guys capable of impregnating her with the Most Musically Annoying Baby in the History of Babies.

Pete Wentz, apparently worse for the wear when he hosted at Jet inside The Mirage New Year’s Eve, was having a tough time with the countdown after a little too much partying. You know your New Year’s is going well when you’re wrestling with single digits.
Over at Bellagio’s Yellowtail, Leona Lewis had dinner, turning up on a crutch after a fall off a horse. Robin Thicke was headlining The Bank where he did a few songs off his new album — 5,000 copies of which were distributed to guests at The Bellagio. You know who didn’t need a copy? Growing Pains star and Robin’s father, Alan Thicke. Although Kirk Cameron probably had to have his copy smuggled to him in a hollowed out Gideon’s Bible. Not just for sneaking booze into church anymore!
Over at Haze, DJ Tiesto went for 4 1/2 hours and climaxed with the 10-foot-tall Kryoman robot shooting confetti. And lasers. Because robots should always have lasers. He even found time to send out a Tweet, “Ddoing the sound check at Haze, this club is the most beautiful one I have ever seen!” Of course he’d say that. There was a laser-equipped 10-foot tall robot hanging over his shoulder if he didn’t say anything nice.
He did One Tree Hill, too. He must wake up every night screaming.
A man who should be awarded some sort of Congressional medal or at least hazard pay of some sorts for appearing between Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway in Bride Wars, Bryan Greenberg, was with Victor Rasuk at Fix last night inside Bellagio. The two of them are starring in the upcoming HBO series from Mark Wahlberg, How to Make it in America. It sounds like it’s going to be Entourage for East Coast business professionals. The probably should’ve called it The Boobs and Cars Variety Hour: Manhattan Edition. This is why anyone who complains about Entourage never featuring any character development or problems are missing the point: The show is a delivery system for exotic rides and naked broads. No one complains that the needle is trite and derivative when they’re getting shot full of swine flu antidote.
The guys went from Fix to The Bank for shots, and talked up the waitresses with tales of New York City — although Greenberg, the Nebraska native, was embarrassed when he was recognized. They said they plan to dine at Aria’s Union today and then come back to The Bank.

Thank Christ someone’s finally doing something about getting “Poker Face” played in this town. Lady Gaga does the first of two nights tonight at The Pearl inside the Palms. Kid Cudi, the scheduled opener, won’t be performing. That’s OK, though, because you’re probably too busy putting together you’re best pants-less outfit for The Gaga Wars tonight at The Bank inside Bellagio, where the best Gaga outfit will win $2,000.

So, people really want to hear ‘Boom Boom Pow’ live, huh? (Photo by Joe Fury. Additional photos by Erik Kabik | Retna)
Perez Hilton’s sparring partner, Will.i.am, pulled guest DJ duties at Z-Trip’s Revolution Friday night at Rain inside the Palms after the U2 show, rocking the turntables until 3 a.m. The band had their official afterparty at Bellagio’s Bank, complete with Fergie and the other two Peas, Taboo and Apl.de.ap. We’re pretty sure they agreed to tour with U2 just because those two could relate to Larry Mullin and Adam Clayton.
Also at Rain was Red Sox center fielder Jacoby Ellsbury. See, he had time to hang out at Rain because he’s not playing baseball. Because Boston got swept. Swept by the Angels, who didn’t even get out of the ALCS. (Is that enough Yankee-fan insufferability yet? What’s that? It’s not? Well, OK …) It’s going to be fun once the Yanks bounce the Phillies and the new Stadium can ring clear with “Oh! Oh! Se-Ven!” chants to take the place of “Nine-teen! Eigh-teen!” Hey, it’s a start.
Also at Rain was blogger and daughter of U.S. Sen. John McCain, Meghan McCain, who caused a firestorm recently when she posted this pic to Twitter. Really? The most controversial thing about that pic is that she looks like a cam girl from the late-’90s. (Holla, early adopter Internet nerds.) Do we really want to get into a situation where we’re going to make girls uncomfortable for putting their boobs on display on the Internet? Then where would we be? Back to having to leave the house to get porn, that’s where. No one wants that.
Speaking of hussies, though, LeAnn Rimes ducked into Socity Cafe inside Encore for breakfast. She sat alone, which is the most surprising news we’ve heard all week.

DJ Tiesto did his thing at a surprise performance last night at The Bank inside Bellagio where he was filming a video for “Feel It” with Flo Rida and the Three 6 Mafia. SpyOnVegas has a full gallery of the show. But how did it sound? Well, check it for yourself over 10 minutes of video.
Apparently things got a little tight at the door, though, as the Light Group has issued this apology.

Normally only turning up in town on holiday weekends, DJ Tiesto is making a special appearance tonight at The Bank inside Bellagio and celebrate the release of his album Kaleidoscope. He’s shooting a video for “Feel It” with Three 6 Mafia featuring Flo Rida and Sean Kingston. Cameras roll first at Jet inside The Mirage before Tiesto ducks behind the turntables at The Bank at 1 a.m. Start thinking now about whether you’re calling in tomorrow, or just plan on being useless all day.

Hey, did we mention we’re having the official DailyFiasco.com launch party Sunday night at The Bank inside Bellagio with Lindsay Lohan good influence DJ Samantha Ronson? We did? Good. Don’t forget it or we’ll have to get an angry, gun-toting Dennis Farina to come settle your hash. Lucky for you, we can call Dennis off if you plan on coming.
