Vegas Is On Fire!
Filed under: Sin City
The Monte Carlo in Sin City is ablaze, sources reveal exclusively to PerezHilton.com.
"There's a big cloud of black smoke above the hotel," a Vegas insider tells us. "It's very scary."
No word yet on what started the fire. Or the damage it caused/is causing the property.
Update: Sources tell us the hotel is being evacuated.
Four Monte Carlo employees are stuck on the roof.
Fire crews are on the scene.
The inferno first broke out around 11 A.M.

Traffic is backed up all over Las Vegas.

What do you mean revealed "exclusively" to you? I read about it on the news AN HOUR AGO. Trust me, you aren't special.
THIS isn't a news site!!
sources reveal exclusively?! TURN ON THE NEWS!

Yikes, hope they get the employees down safely…as for the hotel, I'm sure they have plenty of money to re-vamp after the fact. It IS Vegas.

ZOMG!!!! MY BROTHER GOT MARRIED THERE!!!!
Perez, i've always been an avid reader of your website, and i just wanted to say that you are FABULOUS, and i love you! thanks for always putting the top stories onto your website, and for working so hard to provide us with this information. I love how you call Jessica Alba, "Dont Call Me Latina". And you even provide us with information on the "Z-List" celebrities, information thats pretty hard to find. LOL
Aww! I just saw La Cage there last week.
QUICK!!! Call Mary Kate!
LOL. SERVES THEM RIGHT.
WHO CHARGES 12.99 FOR A DAY OF INTERNET ?!
Oh My God! I canceled my reservations for this weekend, I totally would have been there!
lol @ perez's sources being cnn and headline news
It's on every freakin' news channel!!!!
Oh my goodness, I hope those people on the roof are all right!
oh shit, so many good news these days!
I can see it out of my upstairs window - spreading fast! If you live in Vegas, they are telling everyone to stay at home/work - I guess the freeways are all getting backed up, too.
DEAR GOD - Britney was in Vegas!
When will the whore stop?
Wow… what an EXCLUSIVE *roll eyes* My MOM broke the news here in Iowa ("The hotel we stayed at last week is on fire!!!") before you did!
I live in Vegas and I can assure the the whole city is NOT on fire and there is not traffic all over the place….keep it real, Perez, keep it real.
I am so sad I love that HOtel .. I really do I love that it is a lil kick back in fast pace vegas… ahhhh I am sad.. Save the hotel please
GUYS. Focus on whats important, the actual fire. Quit crying about who taddled the story first. I was just watching the news and it said that according to one source people are trapped on the roof. They made it clear it was Perez's website. Therefore its an exclusive. Now quit crying and just pray that the fire doesnt spread any further and kill people!
Perez…you're being ridiculous and losing any bit of credibility trying to tell us "the real news". This story was on the new 30 minutes ago and is now on almost every news channel non-stop. Don't you need to give that photo a credit to CNN or something?
its out now
fuckers
The city of sin is burning to the ground!! Just like Soddom and Gammorah. Repent!!! The world is about to end.
PS–Don't look back!!
It's Paris, Britney, Lindsey and Heath Ledger on the roof. He lives–he should fuck them all, then push them off!!
Perez, are you seriously retarded? I think you are. This wasn’t reveled exclusively to you. What the hell is wrong with you lately? You’re lying left and right out of that huge butt of yours! People are staring to notice how full is siht that you are!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oops she did it again?! I hear that Brittany's there? She probably dropped her marlboro reaching for her big gulp orange soda after blowing her grifter paparazzi boyfriend.
NO NOT VEGAS!!!!!
That's awful! I hope everything is okay, and everyone in the building is safe!
Re: Rachel – Ditto.
Re: Sources Exclusively Reveal???? – Hey you fucking idiot–who cares who reported it first–it's news–you're suppossed to spread it around–just like gossip–so to all you retards who constantly complain that someone else reported it first–shut the fuck up!!
In brooklyn they call that jewish lightning
Re: kim –
I dont understand why everbody come son this site and bashes it, if it ssuch shit WHY ARE YOU EVEN LOOKING AT THIS TO BEGIN WITH?RETARDS
sorry, you kinda lose credibility when you use phrases like "The Monte Carlo in Sin City is ablaze, sources reveal exclusively to PerezHilton.com." and "Vegas insider". This isn't exclusive, nor is it from an insider. NOW, if it's from the person who started the fire and they called you while actually starting the fire, then maybe ya can get away with it.
First Heath and now THIS!
By exclusive you mean you ripped someone else's story, copy and pasted it right? Real exclusive you ugly, fat fuck. I wish someone would fly a plane into your drug, homo-infested apartment.
here's hoping no one got hurt!
I can see it from my office window… its crazy..and now its going to suck to try to get home!!!
Perez,
STOP SAYING THINGS ARE BEING REVEALED "EXCLUSIVELY" TO PEREZHILTON.COM.
DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT "EXCLUSIVE" MEANS???!!!!
YOU ARE NOT THE ONLY ONE REPORTING ON THESE STORIES YOU CATEGORIZE AS BEING "EXCLUSIVELY" REVEALED TO YOU.
SO SAD. ITS RIGHT BY MY JOB..
I WORK BEIND THE MANDALAY BAY HERE IN VEGAS AND ITS ON FIRE ALL RITE….ITS CRAZY!! I JUST HOPE EVERYONE IS OUT SAFE…..I CAN SEE EVERYTHING THROUGH MY OFFICE WINDOW……
I had such a good time there.
I will never forget that week in Vegas, or those under age boys from San D something. Or that hot Dr. from San Something.
i love boys
