Quick, before we have to get back to laboring! Britney Spears watches a pair of buff, shirtless men prepare her beach chair at the Mirage pool in Vegas over the weekend.
Rumor has it Brit may be back to work even faster than planned with a surprise appearance at the Video Music Awards next weekend, the same awards that are delivering our next episode of "The Hills" a whole day early.
But then it's not much of a surprise if there are already rumors about her return to the stage, right?

Girls just wanna have fun, and occasionally wield their own cameras: Audrina Patridge snaps herself while hosting a party at Christian Audigier The Nightclub at Treasure Island in Las Vegas. First Lauren Conrad hosted a soiree there, and now it's her (once and future?) bestie's turn, along with potential new TV love interest Corey Bohan. Can he be the JustinBobby of 2008?
The fourth season of "The Hills" premieres tonight at 10 pm. But why watch when we'll have your full recap tomorrow morning? And follow along with Audrina's recently announced network-TV debut in the new series "Do Not Disturb" at HotelChatter.

If you've got a bar, who needs a beach? Ryan Phillippe and girlfriend Abbie Cornish ("Stop-Loss," "Elizabeth: The Golden Age") drink Grey Goose and cranberries by the pool at the Venetian in Las Vegas. Later, the pair went to a performance of Cirque du Soleil at the Bellagio with hundreds of thrill-seeking Midwesterners.
Meanwhile, Phillippe's ex Reese Witherspoon was spotted in Morocco--not in a bikini, but fully clothed and sharing a meal with long-haired Jaunted fave Jake Gyllenhaal. So which would you choose for your summer vacation this year: Vegas or North Africa?

Slot machines and baccarat are so over: Eva Longoria is reportedly partnering with Victoria "Posh Spice" Beckham for a night spot in Vegas that introduces the soon-to-be latest craze in betting games: Dominoes!
Longoria opened her own Hollywood restaurant "Beso" last year, where it not only failed to die but has thrived. But it was in looking for venues to launch Beso II in Vegas, she was introduced to the Beckhams, themselves looking for a toehold in the scene.
Apparently, the dominoes were Posh's idea, so celebrities can cry and run away from the tables when they lose just like at age 5. Will they also offer Connect Four?

Celebrities losing weight is so 20th century; the hot new trend is going totally weightless! We told you about Joey Fatone taking a Zero G flight for his 31st birthday back in February, and now the anti-gravity flight provider has even raised the bar for those willing to spend $9,000.
On August 17, Zero G will host a flight out of Las Vegas for a select 16 people--the normal load is 35--with one very special guest, astronaut Buzz Aldrin. With more room to float freely for 30 seconds at a time, the lucky crew can mingle with Buzz and ask him about all the wild stuff he did when he was weightless for hours at a time.
We can think of what we'd want to do weightless in a plane, and it's dirty. If you're paying nine grand, we'd be hoping for a bit more excitement than throwing chips at each other from across the cabin!

Is it time to put Mimi out to pasture? A Vegas casino has reportedly made an offer to Mariah Carey for a residency there--with a $100 million price tag.
The Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino, which rose out of the ashes of the Aladdin this year, thinks the singer could be the next Celine Dion or Elvis. It's the same place whose clubs called in Heidi Montag's employer, Bolthouse Productions, to help them get with the times.
Vegas is a great place to make money (just ask Dion, who raked in almost $400 million over five years at Caesars) but we're not sure it's really Mariah's style!

Nevada is home to 28 legal brothels, and despite what you might think, most of them cater to truckers. The cat houses are located in rural areas and depend on business from horny long-haul drivers--and they're hurting thanks to the rising cost of gas.
Bobbi Davis of the Shady Lady Ranch told CNN:
Anything that has to do with discretionary income is down. Instead of spending $500 out here, [truckers] might only spend $300. I see it every time they raise gas prices.
In order to fight price hikes, Davis is offering discounted rates and gas card giveaways.
Brothels located near the casino meccas of Reno and Las Vegas say their business is up, but that hasn't stopped relentless self-promoter and Moonlite Bunny Ranch boss Dennis Hof from getting in on the recession discount publicity action. The Hof is launching a "Double Your Stimulus" special that gives customers who bring their government checks to the Bunny Ranch "twice the services for the same regular price."

Nothing screams summer fun like a national park, but who wants to visit Yellowstone again?
Located just outside of Baker, Nevada is Great Basin National Park. Just like some of the other parks we've featured recently, the park is somewhat out of the way. The National Park Service even warns in bold to plan ahead due to limited services! That must be why fewer than 100,000 people visited last year.
