| More than 100 Chippendales alumni and current cast pose on stage at the 35th Anniversary Chippendales celebration |
Ever wonder what happens when sexy, hunky Chippendales get older?
Now we know - like a fine wine, they just get better and better.
This weekend, the most famous male revue in the world, held a 35th Anniversary celebration at the Rio Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, which became a reunion of over 100 former and current Chippendales, including three original Chippendales from the Los Angeles Chippendales club from 1979 (Roger Menache, Richard Barash and Dustin Stevens).
Five alumni joined the current cast onstage for the evening's performance - and it was hard to tell they had ever left the show.
The evening kicked off a year-long celebration of events and projects that will include performances in Europe, Asia, and Australia; as well as a 35-city USA tour (including New York, Chicago, Dallas and San Diego among others) in partnership with LiveNation; and the beginning of production of a Las Vegas based reality show and Alan Ball’s highly anticipated film, “I Am Chippendales,” the true-life, and often scandalous story of how the brand became one of the most famous adult entertainment shows in the world.
I should note that some things DO change through the years at Chippendales. One thing, for instance, is that today men are definitely welcome at any performance. So, whether you want to go along with your best girlfriends for a bachelorette party, divorce party or your own party with your best buds, make your reservations. Chipppendales welcomes all.
