The Blurbs: Water Sports at Water Club, Britney NYE at Palms, P-Rod at Venetian

Sex selling: According to the honchos at the new Borgata tower, The Water Club, the most popular item sold in the mini-bar is the Passion Kit - lube, wrenchcoats n more bedroom toys. Similar kits are standard issue at the Hard Rock

Celebutards: Britney Spears fan? Going to Vegas on New Years Eve? You're in luck! Ms. Spears is planning on kicking off some kind of tour with a New Years Eve spectacular Palms, which is owned by her "friend" George Maloof. I'm shocked to say that I'm now two degrees separated from Britney Spears via George Maloof - not that George and I are super poking each others Facebook profile or faving our Flickr's, but he practically sat on my lap at the Podcast-A-Palooza. Can I trade Britney for Lohan?

Meanwhile... comedian Paul Rodriguez has been named the host of the Real Deal poker game show / gong show thingy coming to the Venetian. Apparently Chuck Barris wasn't available. Boo!

Why Comments Rule Dept. - The Toronto Star's theatre critic Richard Ouzounian filed a 1000 word report about how great the food is at the Palazzo, which was neatly summarized by the one (and only) comment posted by counsellor_35.

Of course, $1,000.00 for three nights in a standard room, not including any of the aforementioned meals, shows, or use of the Spa (or your plane ticket there, for that matter), might be a tad more than most readers of the Star can afford. But why would a columnist worry about details when he can boast about his holiday?

I have a hunch we're going to be hearing even reactions like this as the new higher ticket resorts open in the future - ongoing economic quagmire or not.

Yeah Britney and George Maloof as "friends."
You've know they've done the nasty. He was on come casino show (on the Travel Channel I think) the other day talking about his and her "dinner dates."
They were giving tips on how to meet celebrities in Vegas but the show never left the Palms. I think it panned to Red Rock for like 10 seconds but that was it.

I would credit Mr. Maloof with better judgment than doing the nasty with our dear Britney. He seems to do OK for himself.
