Longoria Parker to Host New Year’s Eve Party to Celebrate
LAS VEGAS – Eva Longoria Parker will introduce her contemporary steakhouse with Latin flair, Beso, and her luxurious new nightclub, Eve, with a New Year’s Eve grand opening celebration at the much anticipated CityCenter complex in Las Vegas. Located at Crystals, Beso and Eve occupy two stories at the entrance at The Park across from ARIA.
“I am thrilled to be expanding my restaurant franchise, and cannot think of a more perfect location than Crystals at CityCenter,” said Eva Longoria Parker. “Vegas is full of energy, excitement, and in the city of lights, Beso will be right at home.”
Beso, the Spanish word for kiss, combines Longoria Parker’s Latin heritage and her passion for cooking with the culinary talents of celebrated chef, Todd English.
The result is an array of memorable dishes, from flavorful, tender cuts of aged beef to an assortment of fresh ceviche selections.
Like her popular original Beso in Hollywood, the Las Vegas interpretation will pair delicious fare with impeccable service and a luxuriously hip ambience; a can’t-miss combination for the A-List.
Deep chocolate browns and rich gold finishes envelope Beso’s 6,000-square-foot interior, with a splash of red marking the exhibition kitchen as tribute to the brand’s signature kiss.
Custom-designed chandeliers handmade from the Swarovski Crystal curtain created especially for the 2009 Academy Awards are the prevailing design feature of the gorgeous dining room, where floor-to-ceiling windows showcase the backdrop of CityCenter’s striking architecture.
The lounge at Beso, a dynamic meeting spot for before and after dinner, is designed to encourage a vivacious mix-and-mingle atmosphere. A patio is situated on a bustling corner of Crystals overlooking the ARIA porte cochere, and will offer outdoor dining year round.
On the second level, guests will be swept into the elegant atmosphere of Eve where a breathtaking 50-foot arched ceiling and lavish VIP booths accentuate the glamorous interior.
The highly anticipated 8,000-square-foot hotspot will be enveloped in black with accents of sparkling gold, and mirrored windows will showcase the nighttime views outside.
One-of-a kind colossal video screens surrounding the dance floor are a striking, state-of-the art feature unique to Eve alone. Renowned DJs and a premium sound and lighting system will make Eve the ultimate nightclub to dance the night away.
Longoria Parker will host a grand opening celebration on New Year’s Eve, and will lead revelers in a countdown and champagne toast to ring in 2010. Guests will also enjoy an array of signature hors d’oeuvres from Beso, as well as an open bar from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. Advance tickets to this exclusive event are available now for $125, and may be purchased by calling 702.227.EVE8 (3838) or via email at reservations@evethenightclub.com
Longoria Parker opened the original Beso in Hollywood with partner and celebrity chef, English, in March 2008. Located on Hollywood Boulevard, Beso is accompanied by Kiss Nightclub, a rich Victorian-themed hotspot set lavishly above the restaurant, creating the ultimate venue for celebrities and guests to sip champagne while enjoying the reverie of music from Hollywood’s hottest DJs.
For more information about Beso and Kiss Nightclub in Hollywood, guests may call 323.467.7991 or visit www.BESOHollywood.com
Beso and Eve are located at 3720 Las Vegas Boulevard, South.

Comes to The Orleans Showroom December 6
Las Vegas—For more than two decades, Lee Greenwood has created and embodied the sound of America. Most well known for his single “God Bless the USA,” Greenwood will be performing traditional Christmas songs in Lee Greenwood’s Tennessee Christmas at The Orleans Showroom December 6.
With more than 20 albums and countless hit singles like “I.O.U,” “It Turns Me Inside Out,” “Somebody’s Gonna Love You” and “Dixie Road,” Greenwood’s distinctive voice, insightful lyrics and unparalleled showmanship has earned him countless awards including two Male Vocalist of the Year awards from the Country Music Association.
While growing up on a farm near Sacramento, California, Greenwood began studying music at a young age, learning to play an astounding 10 instruments.
After finishing high school, Greenwood began to play shows in Las Vegas, where he became one of the most popular entertainers on the competitive casino circuit.
As he matured and honed his craft, he was discovered by Larry McFaden who brought him to MCA Records Nashville, skyrocketing his solo career.
In 1982, Greenwood burst onto the country music scene with his first gold album Inside Out cementing him as a star with hits such as “Ring on Her Finger,” “Time On Her Hands” and “She’s Lying.” A year later, he released his platinum album Somebody’s Gonna Love You with popular singles “Hearts Aren’t Made to Break (They’re Made to Love),” and “Going, Going, Gone.”
On his album You’ve Got A Good Love Comin’ in 1984, Greenwood penned “God Bless the USA” which today is the most recognizable patriotic song in America. Other hit albums such as with Love Will Find Its Way To You, This Is My Country and American Patriot, Greenwood has perfected his music and touched young and old audiences alike.
Today Greenwood continues the tradition of songwriting as he embarks on two new recording projects. Having recently completed a collection of pop standards in “Proven,” including Ray Charles’ “I’m Busted” and Cyndi Lauper’s “Time After Time,” he has proved he is a versatile musician and performing artistic.
Greenwood is staying true to his country roots as he works on a new album that will introduce him to younger mainstream country fans.
