Palms Casino Resort was the place to be as the 2nd Annual Fantasy Football Superdraft Weekend lured in celebrity and Hollywood faces to 9 Group’s infamous venues Friday night, Aug. 27.
Rain Nightclub hosted an album release party for R&B/soul singer best known for winning the title of American Idol (2004), Fantasia Barrino. Fantasia celebrated the release of her third studio album, Back to Me and treated the packed venue to a live performance of songs including new track, “Bittersweet” and her own rendition of “Purple Rain.” Other celebrity guests spotted at Rain Nightclub included: actor Ashton Kutcher and wife/actress Demi (Moore), actress Soleil Moon Frye (Punky Brewster), actress, model and former professional wrestler Stacy Keibler, actor and and DJ Danny Masterson, rapper and actor Flavor Flav (real name William Drayton, Jr.), Olympic gold medalist Michael Phelps, and actress Shannon Elizabeth. They all enjoyed Fantasia’s performance from the VIP booth on stage where many of them were seen dancing and enjoying mixed cocktails.

Kutcher and Demi dined with a large group of about 20 friends including Masterson, Frye, Elizabeth, Phelps and Keibler. The entire table shared signature appetizers such as rock shrimp, potsickers, sashimi and ravioli. Kutcher enjoyed the ribeye and spinach for his entrée while Moore had Morty’s lemon chicken and a side of steak fries.
