Fantasy fulfilled? Even the one about Joan Crawford and the overly large, yet docile, badger?

Playboy model Sara Stokes checked in at Torrid inside Planet Hollywood Resort’s Hawaiian Tropic Zone Friday where she signed copies of her latest cover and took photos with fans. Stokes was also celebrating her birthday. What better way to celebrate than to sign naked pictures of yourself? That’s pretty much how we handled birthdays 17 through 24. We’re not sure why we didn’t draw the same crowd, though.

Adrienne Curry hosts at Prive inside Planet Hollywood Resort tonight, where she’ll continue to do exactly what she’s done the last few years: Make everyone around wonder how in the hell former Brady Buncher Christopher Knight could land a 20-something Playboy model. We’re still befuddled, but we suspect she’s just been blazed the whole time. Click for more words and pictures »

Local model Sara Stokes celebrates both her birthday and the release of Playboy’s Hot Housewives special, of which she has the cover. So all in all, it’s a banner August for those of us who enjoy both cake and nudity. Which is to say, all of us. The shindig gets going at Planet Hollywood Resort’s Torrid, where Stokes will autograph 150 copies of the cover for fans. You’ll probably have to ask nicely if you want cake, though.

Not content to slowly suffocate comedy in its crib with Meet the Spartans, Carmen Electra is back with monumental asshats Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer for the sure-to-be excreble Disaster Movie in which she plays — oh, Christ, we can’t even keep talking about it.

Anyway. Electra hosts at Prive inside Planet Hollywood Resort Saturday night at 11:30 p.m. If you go, try to stop yourself from breaking down and sobbing uncontrollably when you realize that Disaster Movie will probably make about $85 million worldwide.

On Friday at Prive, Tera Patrick hosts, in case you wanted to go see the girl with the more respectable body of work.

Red? Check. White? Check. Boobs? Check. All right, truth in advertising.

In an unbridled display of patriotism, Torrid at Planet Hollywood Resort’s Hawaiian Tropic Zone held Red, White and Boobs on Independence Day for a celebration of everything that makes this country great: Cutthroat competition, and the promise of fake breasts.

The silicone-hopeful competed for a breast augmentation courtesy of Dr. Pancholi of Cosmetic Surgery of Las Vegas. Joining the good doctor at the judges’ booth were Playboy cover model Tiffany Holliday and Playboy model, DJ Roxanne Dawn.

Producer, rapper and mogul Jermaine Dupri hosts Money for Nothing tonight at Prive inside Planet Hollywood Resort and will do a DJ set. Dupri got his big break as a producer when he unleashed Kriss Kross on the world. So — uh — thanks? If the Daddy Mack will not, in fact, make you jump, jump, you can scope the alternatives by reading on. Click for more words and pictures »

My Stepmother is an Alien star Juliette Lewis was on hand at Prive inside Planet Hollywood Resort Saturday night to celebrate her 35th birthday with four friends. They drank Mojitos, Grey Goose and Perrier-Jouet Rose champagne. Lewis danced on the couches while grinding on her girlfriends before wrapping things up around 3:30 a.m. To be fair, her excitement wasn’t just for her birthday, but she’s still that psyched about Natural Born Killers co-star Robert Downey Jr.’s success with Iron Man. She was equally enthusiastic four years ago about Woody Harrelson’s turn in She Hate Me.

On Friday at Prive, Lauren Bosworth celebrated her graduation from UCLA. So now she can finally get down to the serious business of 20th century existential philosophy after putting all that MTV stuff behind her.
