A year ago today I moved to Las Vegas! My how time flies when you’re having fun!! This is my 3rd contract at Jubilee and I’m struggling to finish. However, with a positive attitude, amazing friends, and lots of coffee, we are gettin thru just fine. I love Las Vegas. We work hard at work and audition for things almost every week. But on our down time we hang out by the pool in paradise. Not too shabby. :) I’m excited to spend the summer in Vegas livin the life, but then it’s on to the next adventure, whatever that may be. Cruise ship?! Fingers crossed. :) I’ve learned a lot from working at Jubilee. If you havnt seen me in the show yet, get your butt out here! Free tics on me! This is your official invitation! C’mon down! What a year it has been. Can’t wait for more fun!

My first Mother’s Day without my Momma! Thank you for always supporting me in life, and being my best friend.  This time last year I was packing to move to Las Vegas!  Even though it was a tough decision, she was there for me and sent me off on the journey of a lifetime!  Can’t wait to see you soon mom!  Love you so much!

Couple of unedited photos from this week’s pin up girl photo shoot with a couple of 1950s Air Force planes!  Pretty stoked on how they turned out!  I love the ’20s, and the ’50s. Clothes from those eras are just so much cuter.  Too bad I didn’t get my roots touched up a little earlier…but that’s what photoshop is for right?!  And those black bobby pins…ugh….whoops.  My “victory rolls” aren’t touching each other, but for my second try they turned out pretty good! Check out YouTube for victory roll tutorials like this one that I tried to copy.

WARNING! Boring personal diary entry: Will be attending lots of auditions next week and trying to get my reel together to submit to different shows.  Not feeling satisfied at Jubilee! lately.  The audience is less than appreciative and I just feel lost in the crowd in this cast of 85+.  Feeling a little down and out.  Been doing lots of Insanity workouts, on my 14th day, and trying to eat less, but just end up eating Taco Bell and chocolate instead.  What am I doing?! What am I missing?!

Waiting for Vegas to start heating up and the pool season to get going.  Looks like this weekend will break 100 degrees!  Summer is here, finally!

Quack! – My Chiropractic Experience

What a ridiculous day.  Wanted to write down this story and share so that anyone else out there may read it and be a little more informed than me.  And i mean just read this dude’s wiki page… doesn’t sound real believable.  And Palmer is like the main chiropractic school out there.

So my knee has been hurting me from work (dancing on a steel stage with sticky rubber on high heels), and Id been to a chiropractor before who maybe helped heal my knee.  I tweaked my knee and made an appointment with a chiropractor near my house hoping he would massage it out and put the muscles back in place.  Well.  NEVER go to this guy:  Max Health Center at 8475 S Eastern Ave Ste 101, Las Vegas, NV 89123.  (702) 898-3311.  The adjusting was all well and fine.  All the bones cracked and creaked which felt great.

Then they say I should get an xray because I haven’t gotten one within the last 6 months and its only $15.  Oooooo kay?

So I got one.  They iced my knee and a few minutes later the “Dr.” says “Let’s go look at your xrays!” Well, it was a full on crooked “S” spine that looked like scoliosis.  And I’m thinking, ok well, no one’s spine is perfectly straight, right? So he says a full back adjustment would work.  So I’m like sure, sounds good.  But then I look closer at the xray…there is a metal pants zipper in the xray……I WAS WEARING SWEATPANTS!!!! There is no WAY those were my xrays!  I was NOT WEARING PANTS WITH A ZIPPER!  He went so fast explaining my newly discovered “S” curve in my back nonchalantly like NO BIG DEAL YOU HAVE SCOLIOSIS CONGRATULATIONS, and then we were quickly back in the adjusting room.  I was about to say something, but we moved on. And I am so not confrontational, i just didn’t know how that was going to end positively…

Is this his TACTIC?! Just show people their new SPINAL DISEASE and then happily say no big deal, a couple cracks will fix it up!  AND ITS NOT EVEN MY SPINE?! I just cant believe there are still idiots out there TRYING this scammy stuff!  The rest of the appointment was great!  So nice, so comfortable.  Why bother with scamming people out of $15 every 6 months? Hardly seems worth losing a patient over.

Anyways.  Has anyone ever experienced something like this?  Id love to hear the story?  Should I call them tomorrow and ask to see my correct xrays?  I just don’t see how they could explain their way out of it?!  Guess I’ll call and give them a chance to explain.

Well I will not be going back, and I’ll write a BAD review on Yelp if there is no innocent explanation.  That’s probably the worst thing I could do to them, right?

Ugh.  On to the next Quack!

Come to the Peepshow!

Awesome Friday.

Started the day off at Moorea Beach Club at Mandalay Bay with about 30 Jubilee girls.  Love them!

Then went to happy hour at Double Helix Wine and Whiskey Bar in Town Square.  Great red sangria, amazing food, and lovely sitting outside.  Will definitely be going there frequently.  I highly recommend it!

After dinner we went to see Kelly, my former Jubilee dressing room buddy, (in the red dress below)  in Peepshow! at Planet Hollywood with Coco!

Jubilee! showgirls lining the red carpet at Planet Hollywood to welcome Cee Lo Green to Las Vegas for his new show Loberace!  Cee Lo said “heya beautiful” to me and I said “hii”.  He told all of us that we were gorgeous and “should get back on the back of his truck.” Lol.
