As we mentioned last month, Criss Angel's new Cirque du Soleil show, Believe, opened to very very bad reviews.

Even large publications have bashed the shiteous show.

And now, in what looks to be a sign of bad times for the show, tickets are already being offered at almost half price!

The official Cirque site mentions everyone can enjoy "A Haunting Journey with Criss Angel at 40% Off."

Only 40% off? Maybe if it were free people would be willing to go watch it.

The site adds:

"CRISS ANGEL Believe is a haunting exploration deep inside the inventive mind of mystifyer Criss Angel as he hovers between the land of the living and a surreal world. Enjoy 40% off tickets to select performances to CRISS ANGEL Believe!"

Wonder if the show's closing is coming anytime soon?

Guh-rosssssssssssss!

A Perezcious reader had the great misfortune of witnessing a neck-sucking fest between ex-Girl Next Door Holly Madison and glorified birthday magician Criss Angel at a party in Cabo San Lucas this past weekend.

Just look at that hickey!

Good thing it's scarf season!

Last month, Hugh Hefner's former "girlfriend" - Kendra Wilkinson - got engaged to her football player boyfriend, Hank Baskett of the Philadelphia Eagles.

And if Kendra and Baskett are still together by June 27th of 2009 (and Hef is still alive!), it seems the young couple will get married at the Playboy mansion.

But, never one to miss out on the media attention, it seems funny that Holly Madison was conveniently spotted at a jewelry story looking for rings with loser boyfriend and "magician" Criss Angel.

An inside source says the two were spotted at the Berger & Son Fine Jewelers in the Fashion Show in Las Vegas mall on Christmas Eve.

The source says, "They were looking at one ring and Criss said, 'Would you marry me?' Holly didn't say anything. She just looked at him."

But when the two spotted a crowd forming outside that's when "Criss handed the ring back to the sales guy and said, "Thanks."

So, could these two madly in love kids actually be getting married?

Not according to Holly's rep. Why she even has a rep, we don't know.

Madison's rep said, "Criss bought Holly a ring for her birthday. It's a flower ring."

And there you have it.

Though sources say that Madison and Angel's families all met up for the first time last week when they celebrated Christmas together. Wonder if this is getting serious?

We doubt it!

He likes to play!

Holly sure picked herself a winner!

Criss Angel's new Cirque du Soleil show is apparently still sucking major balls.

Not only are critics and bloggers ragging on Criss Angel Believe, but taxi drivers - listening to clients bash the show and disliking it themselves - are also bearing the bad news. And, in a town propelled by cabs, that's a major death blow.

The Cirque production at the Luxor, brought in $5 million in pre-sales, leaving a $95 million gap to fill of the $100 million the show is rumored to have cost.

On the other hand, the much more simplified magic show of Lance Burton at the Monte Carlo is faring much better with audiences.

Less is more!

Who knew you could ever say that about Vegas???

As we mentioned previously, after 7 years of being together with Hugh Hefner, his now former girlfriend is shacking up with "illusionist" Criss Angel.

And slowly but surely, Holly Madison is opening up more about her relationship with Hef and releasing some very interesting details.

Such as it seems Hef didn't even see the breakup coming. Madison tells TV's Extra, "I'm just kind of sad about my breakup with Hef. I wish he would've seen it coming. Everybody was surprised when it happened because even though I was unhappy for a long time, the split happened suddenly… The signs were there. I was depressed for awhile."

Does this mean money and fame can't buy you happiness?

So just why did she split from Hef?

The platinum blonde says, "I want to be with somebody I can have more of a future with eventually. Hef and I can't get married and have kids…so it was fun while it lasted but it wasn't right for my old age. I got too old for Hef."

So is she still sharing a room with Hef?

Nope. She reveals that she's "been staying in the guest room. Hef was kind enough not to kick me out of the house….but my condo should be finished [soon]…"

Yea, a condo she mostly likely bought with Hefner's money!

And now that Hef is dating some new nobodies, just what does Holly think about that?

Holly says, "He does not waste any time but I'm happy for him. I want him to be busy and happy and having fun."

As for her personal love life, she adds, "It might be refreshing to date someone who is not high maintenance. Sorry, Hef, you know you're high maintenance. I love you but you know you're high maintenance."

Good job repeating it three times. We Loves It!

Oh, and as for Criss and Holly being an "official" couple, Criss said, "We're good friends and we love spending time with each other." And then he added, "Friends with benefits. Yeah!"

Wow, what a catch!

"Believe that it's unbelievable. Unbelievably bad. In Las Vegas, his mash-up with Cirque du Soleil is a magic trick gone terribly wrong. If Criss Angel were blindfolded, straitjacketed, run over by a steamroller, locked in a steel box and dumped from a helicopter into the Pacific Ocean, he still might be easier to salvage from disaster than "Criss Angel: Believe," the gloomy, gothic muddle of a show that officially lurched into being on Halloween night like some patched-together Frankenstein's monster."

As we mentioned earlier, the gala premiere of the disaster that's Criss Angel Belive by Cirque du Soleil at the Luxor Casino, Las Vegas, took place on Friday, Halloween.

Thankfully, Hef's old girlfriend Holly Madison was at Criss' side for the big event.

We're sure he needed a boob shoulder to cry on after the show's shiteous public roll out.

Look how coupley they are!

Congrats for finally going public with your not-so-secret romance!
