This is the Year of the Monkey, which began on February 8, 2016. Têt’s celebration is the longest holiday, which may last up to seven days. Têt is normally the biggest and most important holiday in Vietnamese culture, almost like New Year’s Day, Fourth of July, Thanksgiving, and Christmas all rolled into one. It’sa holiday that is based on history but has also evolved into a modern celebration that incorporates new elements to produce new traditions.Now that you understand Têt, let me continue sharing this phenomenal event, with you. This Vegas action, southern style casino, hosted their first most popular Têt celebration with a show stopping concert, and stunning surprise custom runway lingerie fashion show organized by Le Quan, President of VNB magazine. The show opened with a great band and flashing fireworks style, club lights. Renown MC Alexander Nhat Nguyen introduced each distinguished featured star, Singers: Cat Tien, TranThai Hoa, DJ-Singer Thuy Khanh, Quang Minh, Hong Dao, Mai Tien Dung, all gave outstanding performances.

VNB’s super hot models strutted on the runway, wearing custom runway lingerie by Deborah LaPearl and Hot Cocoa. The show featured four sections of live models wearing stunning tasteful sexy lingerie, rave wear, and club wear. We asked the designers about the sexy side of lingerie, they both replied, “ We believe lingerie is for anyone who wants it-no matter their size, age, sexuality, ethnicity, ability, or budget.” Both lingerie collections are specifically designed to fit the body of any woman’s curves.In all, 10 models were from various countries with diverse backgrounds. Make-up / beauty expert Renelza Duckette, enhanced their exotic looks. Carmen Zhu, the back stage coordinator for VNB magazine, kept everything behind the stage running smoothly.These flawless international super hot models strutted down a custom built runway, whilethe singers performed. The models flirted, on stage with the camera, danced and flipping their cover-ups around as they strutted on and off the stage. Shortly after, in another scene, the models did catwalks to the beat of DJ-Singer Thuy Khanh, while blowing kisses to the audience. The show featured combinations of tasteful skimpy, sexy, panties, bras, and baby doll lingerie trimmed in feathers while sparkling with crystals. During the show, attendees were encouraged to dance in the aisles. The models also danced as they continued walking the runway. In closings, it was a night’s hour-long extravaganza featuring outstanding, phenomenal Vietnamese entertainers, combining a tasteful lingerie fashion show. All of this was made possible by: Benny Lu Marketing Director, Mike Le president of High Rollers Team and his star performers, Be Henderson, Le Quan president of VNB Magazine with his lingerie fashion show team, and of course the Horseshoe Casino’s management. I can truly say that this holiday celebration was exceptional, noteworthy, and impressive.
