ap080210062867cher.jpg

As Bette Midler comes to the end of her run in Las Vegas, Cher is returning not only this month (and through December 20th), but also in Spring 2010!

YES!

Tickets for the legendary diva's spring run at The Colosseum at Caesar's Palace are going on sale this Saturday, November 14th!

Cher returns to Vegas on November 19 with a whole new opening sequence for concertgoers to enjoy. Director and choreographer of Cher's show, Doriana Sanchez explains:

“We are so excited to return to The Colosseum at Caesars Palace and have made wonderful, new changes to the show, including a number choreographed by my dear friend Tyce Diorio from So You Think You Can Dance. It pays homage to the great movie musicals, complete with incredible costumes by Bob Mackie. We are thrilled to be able to present some really fun and new things for the audiences to see.”

As for her spring shows, there will be 24 performances between April 10 - 25 and May 8 - 30.

Will U be heading to Sin City to catch Cher in action?

Farewell Miz Bette!

It was just announced that Bette Midler will be ending her run on the Vegas strip!

After a relatively short two year run at Caesars Palace, Bette will be giving her final performance on January 31, 2010.

We think it is about time - her tickets weren't really selling anymore.

Let's see, we've had Bette, Cher, Celine Dion, Mariah Carey… What divalicious mega star is on their way to Sin City next?

Who would U like to see?

We say Gloria Estefan!!!!

So ferosh!!!!!

Bette Midler threw a fabulous benefit gala at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York Friday night!

The benefit, called Hulaween, was held as a benefit for the New York Restoration Project, and Bette pulled out all the stops!

Among the attendees were Australian pop singer Sia, Martha Stewart and Michael Kors (we hardly recognized him!).

But the Divine Miss M's costume reigned supreme!

Bette Set To Be In Sex???

bettewenn5329858.jpg

Let's just cut the chase - Will Bette Midler be appearing in Sex and City 2?

No…and we're totally bummed.

Bette finally set the records straight about her rumored cameo. Though she was seen recently strolling with Sarah Jessica Parker on set, she was only there for moral support - for her daughter, Sophie.

Bette explains: "My daughter was a PA on the movie. It was a big thrill for her. She had a great time. She loves the business."

Oh well, maybe next time! There will be a Sex and the City 3, right?

RIGHT?!

Chatting With….

You must CLICK HERE to read a great interview the Los Angeles Times conducted with Perezzers yesterday in Las Vegas.

We talk about a lot of celebrities in the article - and many of them won't be happy with what we have to say!

Collaborate and Listen!

Yes!!! We told you it might happen!

50 Cent and Bette Midler are seriously discussing doing a duet, albeit the craziest duet ever to be recorded.

Fiddy was quoted as saying: "Me and Bette collaborating would be really hot. But I'd need to make something new for her. For the right song, we'd definitely get together."

Bette added: "He is one of the newest members of our tribe. He has really made my life worth living. 50 has been with me through thick and thin. I really can't rap, but I'd like to sing in the background on 'Get Rich or Die Tryin'."

Add this to the list of crazy things you never thought were possible.

Loves it!

Bosom Buddies

Talk about an unlikely pairing!

50 Cent was one of the honored guests for Bette Midler's New York Restoration Project's 8th Annual Spring Picnic at the New Leaf Restaurant & Bar in NYC on Tuesday.

They seem pretty joined at the hip!

And Fiddy cleans up rather nice.

We bet she got to call him Curtis. Maybe they should do a song together?

Unlikely Dinner Companions

fp_1870526_midler_stamos_scj_0203092.jpg

John Stamos and…. Bette Midler?

Yup!

The Full House alum was spotted out to din din at Orso in Los Angeles with the Divine Miss M. on Tuesday night.

We don't think it was a date - they're both attached.

They just have….a lot in common?

She's No Cher!

wenn1889004.jpg

Sources reveal exclusively to PerezHilton.com that Bette Midler's Las Vegas show has turned out to be a big dud!

"She can't move tickets," an insider tells us of Bette's show, which premiered last year.

Unlike Bette, Cher's performances - also at Caesar's Coliseum - are all almost always sold out.

"Between December 30th and January 4th, Midler performed 5 shows and only sold out one," a source tells us. "That's embarrassing! All those shows should have been sold out. It was the holidays!"

Poor Bette. Blame the economy!

Maybe it's time to slash the price of your tickets????
