Think we wanna know you, know you.

Morris Day and the Time showed some [jungle] love to the Hard Rock last night, stopping in to oh-e-oh-e-oh at Godskitchen in Body English.

Cover band Ashley Red played over in Wasted Space, going on at 4 a.m. and keeping it acoustic.

Apologies for not being able to work in a Jay and Silent Bob reference in here. We couldn’t get around the swear word. You deserve better.

Looking back on it, Shannon always regretted getting that tattoo the week before she had to attend the yearly DEA, CIA, FBI and DARE conference, but it was even worse a month later when she couldn’t get Amy Winehouse to leave her alone.

The Rosencrantz and Guildenstern of Entourage, Jerry Ferrara and Kevin Dillon, will host Body English’s Smashtime at the Hard Rock Hotel tomorrow night. How much free weed do you think fans hand Ferrara? With as much pot as Turtle smokes, he has to be as much of a minor hero to potheads as half the cast of Weeds.

Also on Saturday, DJ AM spins at Pure inside Caesars Palace, while Joe Calzaghe hosts an afterparty at LAX inside Luxor following his light heavyweight fight with the legendary Bernard Hopkins — Calzaghe’s first fight in the United States, and his first in the weight class.

Meanwhile, Studio 54 at MGM Grand turns cop-friendly as police agencies are invited for the Baker to Vegas afterparty. So leave your portable meth lab at home, kids.

Monday night’s My Chemical Romance show at The Joint inside Hard Rock Hotel saw Killer Ronnie Vannucci take in the concert along with Joss Stone and Drew Carey.

After the gig, Carey bought a tricycle adorned with 5,000 Swarovski crystals for his nephew. It’s nice to see The Price is Right has totally loaded Carey up on Eff You money that he can afford to buy a blinged-out trike for his nephew, who will undoubtedly now grow up to be a gay biker.

We’re not impressed, though. The tricycle we got from an uncle one Christmas was actually encrusted with diamonds. And had a motor. And it flew. With rockets. It was pretty rad.

Yesterday was the first day of the CTIA Wireless convention, so how do a bunch of wonky cell phone tech nerds celebrate? Do they get treated to a cacophony of dial tones? A symphony of ring tones? No, they score Busta Rhymes at a private event for MTV Mobile at The Joint inside the Hard Rock Hotel.

What the hell, people? Gadget groupies notch Busta Rhymes? That seems cosmically unfair, somehow. Anyway, Busta performed with Chester French, the duo named after the sculptor of the Lincoln Memorial and Teyana Taylor, the fashionista rapper, which both seem more in the speed of people who argue over the relative merits of different Blackberry models. Uh, no offense, CITA.

Also seen out and about last night was Busta Rhymes’ pretty much polar opposite, Teller, of Penn & Teller fame, dining at Wolfgang Puck’s Cut inside The Palazzo.

Grammy winner and sorta-local homeboy Ne-Yo got the crowd pumping at Body English inside the Hard Rock Hotel last night for the weekly Smashtime Saturdays party hosted by E!’s Sal Masakela, Ben Lyons and DJ Clinton Sparks.

Ne-Yo joined Sparks on stage along with DJ and producer Felli Fel of Los Angeles radio station Power 106. Sparks started rocking Felli Fel-produced tracks such as “Buck in Here” and “Finer Things,” the latter of which features Ne-Yo and Kanye West, at which point Ne-Yo grabbed the mic and started singing. After Sparks hyped the crowd with more music from Ne-Yo, Felli Fel took over the ones and twos, spinning the hot tracks his L.A. audiences are used to hearing. Click for more words and pictures »

Ladies, prepare to indulge! (Photo by Ray Alamo | SpyOnVegas.com)

Indulge Fridays at Body English inside the Hard Rock Hotel is more than just a successful weekly party. It’s more than just a ladies’ night, where Las Vegas’ honeys pay no cover and drink free champagne before midnight. It’s also potentially lucrative, as top makeup, fashion and accessory lines give away thousands of dollars in merchandise.

Tonight, Vegas boutique Lot 9 will be on hand with more than $10,000 in giveaways, including such designers as Alice & Trixie, Fighting Eel and Nu Collective. How much more do you need to fulfill the ultimate girls’ night out?

Well, if NASCAR racers are your type of thing, maybe get to the Hard Rock a few hours before Indulge’s 10:30 p.m. start time to meet Fitz Motorsports-sponsored drivers Mike Bliss and Kenny Wallace at The Joint, where the fast-driving dudes will be signing autographs from 8:30 to 9:30 p.m. You didn’t forget it’s NASCAR Week, did you?

You know, whenever we roll up to the Hard Rock Hotel, we always do so in a Bentley.

No, wait, that’s Snoop Dogg who does that. Like last night, when he played to a packed house at The Joint, slow-drawl rapping his way across the venue’s stage. After he wrapped up dropping the lyrical bombs, Snoop kicked it backstage with friends in the dressing room.

Elsewhere in the Hard Rock casino last night, AC Slater looked for a date to the Bayside High School prom. Oh, no, sorry, that was actor Mario Lopez. Whoops. Also spotted this morning was Pauly Shore, having a meal at Mr. Lucky’s 24/7.

OK, so we covered what some of the top restaurants in Las Vegas are offering on Valentine’s Day, but maybe you’re looking for something a little … naughtier. Well, never let it be said DailyFiasco doesn’t come through for you.

Perhaps you might want to find a new, ahem, “friend” for your V-Day 2008. Well, Penthouse Club Las Vegas (3525 W. Russell Road) is hosting a party for AdultFriendFinder.com on Thursday with a Stoli open bar from 7 to 8 p.m. Maybe you’ll be enticed to join the site after meeting some of its members. And maybe you won’t spend the rest of the night alone. Or maybe you’ll just stay at the club and drop a few Benjamins on the Penthouse girls. Whatever.

If you’ve already found a friend, however, maybe an evening at Scores (3355 S. Procyon St.) might be more your style. The renowned gentlemen’s club is offering a special “Berries & Bubbles” package for couples. For $289 per couple, the club will provide round-trip luxury transportation to and from a local hotel, complimentary VIP admission, VIP main floor table seating, one bottle of Louis Roerderer Brut Champagne (“Baby Cristal”), strawberries and whipped cream and even all tax, tips and gratuities! Though we’re pretty sure those tips don’t include cash for your live entertainment, if you catch our drift. Click for more words and pictures »

If you were at the Hard Rock Hotel on Saturday night, you probably couldn’t throw a poker chip without hitting a celebrity. Actor/DJ/professional clubber Danny Masterson — or DJ MomJeans or whatever the hell he is calling himself these days — stopped by Body English for the weekly Smashtime event, where he joined a table with E!’s Sal Masekela and DJ Clinton Sparks. Sparks and Masterson kicked it after Sparks’ set, discussing turntablism and some house party at which the pair played in Miami back in the day.

MTV DJs D-Wrek and D-Nice — in town for the Pink Taco grand re-opening party on Friday — also stopped by Smashtime to check out Sparks’ work on the turntables.

AGO restaurant continued putting celeb-drawing spices in its Italian food, pulling in Tera Patrick and husband Evan Seinfeld for dinner Saturday, while rapper E-40 wandered the casino, giving the roulette wheel a shot. Click for more words and pictures »
