Bisous, Siegfried & Roy!

As previously announced, Siegfried & Roy took the Saturday night for a brief performance and their final bow ever!

The former lovers shared the stage as a part of a benefit for the Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health at the Bellagio Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. The center is aimed to treat brain disorders, including disorders similar to the one which Roy Horn now suffers from as a result of injuries the illusionist sustained due to the 2003 on-stage tiger attack.

The tiger who was responsible for Roy's severe injuries appeared as part of the duo's final illusion this weekend.

The two slowly performed a signature illusion as [Siegfried], dressed in white robes and a mask, stood inide a cage, which was then cloaked in drapes. As [Roy] removed the curtain seconds later, [Siegfried] appeared across stage, a hulking tiger in his place.

How brave!!!

If that isn't considered taking life by the balls, we don't know what is!

Siegfried and Roy's final performance will be broadcast this Friday on 20/20 as a part of Siegfried & Roy: The Magic Returns.

      Re: mamajud

      They broke up when Roy was no longer able to give, just receive. Siegfried was always just a receiver.



    6. 6

      that's a good couple dudes right there.



    7. 7

      Wild animals should not be used for entertainment. People act all shocked when they attack - Travis the chimp is prime example of this.



    8. 8

      I've seen them in person. They had a great show. Glad to see them doing alright.



    9. 9

      It's been speculated that this tiger didn't attack, but was trying to help/pick up Roy since he had a stroke at the moment the tiger "bit" him.

      But I agree that wild animals should not be used to entertain, unless it's just observing them in a conservatory because they are endangered.

      I didn't read that in The Enquirer. You should lay off the dust and beer.



    11. 11

      WHEN ARE THOSE TWO GOING TO GET MARRIED?



    12. 12

      Re: topper

      Perhaps you should read more than just the Enquirer. As for laying off of the dust and beer, NEVER!!!



    13. 13

      Re: Pixie Dust and Beer
      I just don't read The Enquirer, I read Perez and I don't appreciate you lying about S&R breaking up. They have ALWAYS BEEN tighter than J. Holmes in a virgin.



    14. 14

      loves the cats,so cute,oh my gosh,lov them

      Re: topper

      Breaking up as Lovers is not the same as breking up their friendship/partnership. I'm sure that they will always have a very tight bond. Did you read M'amajuds question #2 that I was responding to?
      I do not appreciate you calling me a liar when I am just passing on gossip that I heard. This is a GOSSIP site isn't it? Chill Out!!



    16. 16

      Re: Pixie Dust and Beer
      When did they break up as lovers?
      When did they break up as partners in the show?
      When did they break up as friends?
      Mamajud said it was news to her and I say it is news to me.
      Are making up gossip or repeating it?
      WTF are you talking about?!



    17. 17

      Re: topper
      Hopefully this will get things straight for you
      1. Perez refers to them as "Former Lovers"
      2. Mamajud questions the "Former lovers" comment
      3. Nobody is talking about them breaking up as friends/partners in the show

      Re: topper

      4. They admitted it themselves in an interview with a german magazine months ago and in their autobigraphy. Here is an excerpt from the interview:
      Here's the web page translation from babelfish.com…………
      Siegfried & Roy admit for the first time officially
      Yes, we are schwul!
      The Magier Siegfried and Roy
      Are enough hat's lasted, but the large Magier Siegfried and Roy admits now for the first time officially: Yes, we are schwul!
      The late Coming Out is in one with tension expected Autobiografie of the two to stand.
      The book appears shortly in the USA. "national the Enquirer" already now revealed some pikante details however.
      A Insider to the newspaper: "Siegfried and Roy loved themselves once very much. Meanwhile the Liaison changed itself however into a vocational partnership."

      Re: topper

      We remember: After the bad tiger attack in October 2003 Siegfried yielded not of the side of its partner, helped it fuersorglich with the months-long Reha.
      Also the spectacular tiger attack is topic of the book. Details, which now already oozed: The heavily hurt Roy is to have been clinically dead on the optical four times.
      The Insider tells: "he saw his the deceased nut/mother and his brother in the sky."
      Also those of show star do not leave blank their drug craze. Allegedly the two are to have been medicine dependent for many years.

      As you can see I am NOT making anything up or Lying as you accused me.

      If you want more info, go to babelfish.com yourself.



    20. 20

      It was really very touching. As the two aging gay blades held the cat cub and as the looked soulfully into each others eyes they said almost in unison, this is as close to pu**y as I'd ever really want to get?



    21. 21

      they ugly!



    22. 22

      FUCKING HOMOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



    23. 23

      Re: Pixie Dust and Beer – #5
      Yes , as you admit and I see that nowhere did they "break up". Your apology is accepted.



    24. 24

      Re: topper

      You are truly dillusional!! If anyone needs to apologize it would be you.

      They "broke-up" as Lovers:
      A Insider to the newspaper: "Siegfried and Roy loved themselves once very much. Meanwhile the Liaison changed itself however into a vocational partnership."

      Also it appears that you must have missed an issue of the Enquirer as that is where some of this info came from:
      The book appears shortly in the USA. "national the Enquirer" already now revealed some pikante details however.

      I can't beleive that I am wasting so much time on something so ridiculous as this. I am finished. Take it as you will-you obviously don't get it.



    25. 25

      Siegfried & Roy are awesome. Roy is the toughest son of a bitch around. He takes on a white tiger and survives. He is the real "super man." Say what you want about the act. Siegfried & Roy are tougher than nails. They did not put down the tiger that attacked Roy. Siegfried & Roy are kewl!!! Give them some luv:)



    26. 26

      Montecore is ole g. The act is (was) great. But, like my oppressed brothers of 400 years (tropic thunder - robert downey, jr), we must let our people go (Montecore). He deserves his freedom. Let Montecore roam free in the jungle. He will f' up people in the jungle like Chris Brown f'ed up Rihanna's face. Let freedom ring (bling).



    27. 27

      Love them… wish they will come back a couple of more times… they are truly magicians and keep on the fantasy!!!



    28. 28

      They're not together anymore?
      That makes me….really sad………

      ive got to hand it to the guys for (a) not destroying the animal that supposedly attacked him and (b) coming out of seclusion to perform a charity event when they knew they would be subject to this kind of scrutiny,



    34. 34

      these two are fantastic its never easy to get back from such a horrible thing but hes overcome his fears and gotten back on the stage amazing men



    35. 35

      i would love to see them live, they are awesome!!!



    36. 36

      I saw them once like 15 years ago. Did you know that, sweetie?

      Dad

    37. Laxer says – reply to this


      37

      I wonder if the audience was pre-informed the cat who attacked would be featured. I would have stayed, but I probably would forfeit my front row seat as a precaution.



    38. 38

      They put on one of the best shows in Vegas! I never got tired of seeing them and still can't figure out some of their amazing illusions! The one I particularly liked was when Roy would climb up on the back of an elephant, they'd lower a drape over them for 5 seconds, then let it drop and both were gone…then Roy would come from stage left riding it. I knew it was a trick…but how! I don't care about their personal lives…it's what they accomplished on stage that matters.



    39. 39

      these animals shouldnt be used to make money for those creepy homos

      hope they bite the other one next



    40. 40

      wth, "former lovers"?? aren't they together anymore? what happened? they've been together for like forever, who left whom? i would say awkward moment for them to continue working together in their magic act when they're not shagging each other anymore.
