Flamingo Here He Comes!

Comedy Magician Nathan Burton as seen on America's Got Talent and the Surreal Life will be opening a NEW show at the Flmaingo Hotel & Casino on April 21st. He currently performs at the Planet Hollywood Hotel & Casino just down the strip.

Nathan is a natural-born performer. “I performed my first magic show at age of four, and although nothing worked correctly, I knew then that performing magic in front of people is what I wanted to do for the rest of my life,” Burton said. “I’m absolutely thrilled to have the opportunity to perform inside the legendary showroom at Flamingo. And because my show is at 4:00 p.m., it’s the perfect way for visitors to spend an entertaining hour in the afternoon before gearing up for their big night on the Strip.”

I have seen his show several times and I am a huge fan. It's also pretty cool that he is a a fan of this blog! So if you have a comment or question for Nathan leave it here on the comment form and I'm sure he'll see it.

Best of luck to Nathan and the sexy show-girls on the new show! I know it'll be better than ever - I can't wait to see what new things are in store!

Nathan Burton Moving!

My buddy Nathan Burton (from America's Got Talent) who currently hosts his blend of comedy magic at the Planet Hollywood's V Theater will have a new home very soon. The new home will be the Flamingo Las Vegas main showroom.

With Society of Seven leaving, Nathan will fill the 4pm time slot in the theater, with Toni Braxton and George Wallace still headlining as well.

Vegas EXCLUSIVE!

VEGAS EXCLUSIVE:

Howard Lefkowitz, President of Vegas.com, Nathan Burton, and Robin Leach.  Howard and Robin stopped by backstage separately to visit Nathan before his show on Saturday.  They are looking at Nathan's computer at a set design for a very exciting future show...  Robin stayed to see the show because he had never seen it.  As he was walking out he said to Nathan's Mom (who works for the show), "Tell Nathan that his show is great" in his still heavy English accent.

The second photo is of Nathan and Frank Marino as Joan Rivers from "La Cage" playing at the Riveria.  Frank is the longest running headliner on the strip - 23 years!  The third photo is of Nathan and the Cher impersonator of 'La Cage" - (didn't get her real name).  But, she looks fierce and is hilarious.  And get this, Cher's day job is an elementary school principal and most of the parents of the school have seen her show!
 
Both photos were taken at a television taping for a new TV show coming out soon. The filming took place at the Tryst inside Wynn Las Vegas.

Celebrities react to Cher coming to vegas and give The ZOMG Blog EXCLUSIVE quotes:

"Welcome to Vegas, Cher. Remember, what happens in Vegas, happens at TheZOMGBlog.com." ~ Nathan Burton (magician at Planet Hollywood V Theater)

"The first song I ever sang as a child was "If I could turn back time. Cher is and has always been one of my idols. She has a stunning mix of rock and fashion. Without her influence I truely would not be the artist I am today! I can keep going if you want! I want to see her Vegas show!" ~ Megan McCauley pop singer

"As long as Cher's alive she will always have fans, especially in Vegas. She is a legend and people will always want to see her show, I'm just not one of those people." Jenileigh Sawatzke - Miss Wyoming and reality TV star from "Crowned"

"I really can't wait to see what she looks like and how she's performing after so long of keeping in the quiet." Dori - lead dancer from CatHouse nightclub Las Vegas

Nathan Burton & President Ford

Magician Nathan Burton known for his mix of comedy and magic has a show in Las Vegas at the Planet Hollywood hotel & casino. He has been seen on many TV shows including "America's Got Talent" first and second seasons.

Before Nathan was headlining a Vegas show and doing magic for millions on TV he was a little kid using his walkie-talkie to confuse Secret Service agents.

Nathan's Father was a minister at the St. Margaret's Episcopal Church in Palm Desert from 1978 - 1983. During that time, President Ford and his wife often attended services at St. Margaret's.

The president's daughter Susan Ford was married at the church. During the rehearsal the evening before the wedding, the Secret Service agents heard someone talking on their walkie talkie channel, saying things like "10-4, over and out" And – you guessed it – the culprit was Nathan. They quickly confiscated the 7-year-old's walkie talkie until after the ceremony.

So all you have to do is be a little boy who plays with secret service and wow you learn how to make yourself disappear. I always knew the secret service was magic!
