“Magic Mike Live” in Las Vegas

The live cabaret version of the “Magic Mike” movie franchise officially premiered at the Hard Rock Cafe (natch) in Las Vegas (where else?) this past week. Magic Mike Live was conceived by Channing Tatum, who starred in and produced the movies, and is co-directed by him and Alison Faulk, the films’ choreographer. They worked together with Tatum’s wife Jenna to create a show that asks and tries to answer the question “What do women want?” A show where straight women could be “appreciated very, very hard.”

From the looks of things from a distance (sadly, we were not flown to Vegas to attend the premiere), Magic Mike Live seems to combine erotic female fantasy with Tatum’s sense of humor, but (thankfully for most) without much Chippendale cheese or seedy Vegas raunch.

USA Today reports a lot of toned abs and little skivvies, but no complete nudity. The 360 degree stage features 13 diverse dudes who dance, sing, perform acrobatics, and of course strip — sometimes as a group, sometimes with female performers, sometimes during one-on-one lap dances with audience members. The female host creates a safe space with the safe word “unicorn” and a lot of girl power talk. You don’t throw dollar bills but the pink “thank you” slips provided (after all, tickets are like 130 bucks a pop!). The performers give out just as many compliments as they do rolling pelvic thrusts. There is a lot of eye contact. This is male stripping with love.

In the new venue, there’s even a “Pleasure Bar” featuring toys from our friends at LELO, to help promote the idea of embracing female sexual pleasure without shame.

According to “Ellen,” they’ve already sold over $3 million in tickets. Which hopefully means it’ll still be going strong the next time you get a weekend away in Vegas. Start dropping the birthday party/bachelorette party/anniversary/Mother’s Day hints now! Vegas is possibly the only place that you can catch a raunchy show and then spend the remainder of the night hitting casinos – the Vegas Strip has it all making it the perfect location for any of these parties or celebrations.

It might not be a bad idea to get some practice in before you decide to put your money down on the table for real – we recommend using any of the specially branded casinos found online. If you search for “online casino” online, you will be sure to find millions of results. It can be difficult to find the best sites to use by searching by yourself, you so might want to take a look at the reviews found at best-casino.net to see which online casinos are currently considered amongst the best so that you can find the perfect place to start trying out some of these games for yourself. If you are based in the UK, you might want to narrow your search down by only reading about UK casino sites. You can find reviews of those, as well as information on the best bonuses, on Casino-bonus.me.uk. If you want to win big, it’s always best to do your research.

To be honest, many women find it difficult to leave the ‘Magic Mike Live’ show for obvious reasons. I suppose this is why more and more of them are heading to Paybyphonebillcasino.uk and similar sites so that they can enjoy the show in all of its glory whilst still getting the Las Vegas gambling experience they signed up for at the same time! If you have never been to Las Vegas, you need to change that… and sooner rather than later!

    1. Hi Lisa! Here are some tips that might help you get over your embarrassment — remember: you can always start small at first (i.e. don’t take everything off before you jump on him), dim the lights real low (like nearly pitch black), or you could even blindfold him and let him FEEL the striptease! https://www.emandlo.com/tag/stripping/
