Cher, Tom Brady and Sylvester Stallone were among the stars celebrating the launch of Fontainebleau Las Vegas — the newest upscale resort in Sin City.
Located on the Las Vegas strip, the 150,000-square-foot resort/casino promises a ‘new era of luxury hospitality’ with world-class dining, nightlife and entertainment.
The Fontainebleau towers over Vegas at 737ft-(224m) tall, boasts 3,644 ‘exquisite’ hotel rooms and suites, according to the website, and is certain to become the go-to stay for Hollywood’s elite.
Cher, 77 — who was in New York City last week — looked winter chic in a shiny silver jacket decked out with rhinestones and a matching corset top.
She also modeled a silky black maxi skirt and strolled the red carpet in black satin ballet flats.

At $3.7billion (£2.9billion), the Fontainebleau is second in cost to the $4.3billion (£3.4billion), 66-story Resorts World that opened in June 2021 a short walk down Las Vegas Boulevard.
It is the tallest occupiable building in Nevada and second-tallest in Las Vegas, behind the nearby Strat tower observation deck at 1,149 feet (350 meters).
The name of the 3,644-room, 737ft-(224m) tall Fontainebleau recalls Miami Beach’s icon among destination resorts, which Soffer’s family acquired in 2005. But the project in the Mojave Desert has its own lore about starts, stops and changing ownership since work began in 2007.

Soffer, the Miami-based chairman of Fontainebleau Development, lost funding during the Great Recession and walked away from the project in 2009 with the building about 70 per cent complete.
Various new owners stepped in, including famous financier Carl Icahn and New York developer Steven Witkoff. The latter announced plans in 2018 to redesign and rename the resort The Drew, but progress stalled again during the pandemic.
Meanwhile, sitting idle, the hulking shell of a building with an incomplete street-front facade was occasionally used by area firefighters for high-rise rescue training. Last July, with work progressing toward opening, a smoky rooftop fire raised alarm but caused little damage.
Soffer and Fontainebleau Development reacquired the project in 2021 and partnered with Koch Real Estate Investments to finance and finish it.
He called completion ‘the fulfillment of a long-held dream and a testament to the spirit of our brand, which has stood for seven decades’.
Mark Tricano, Fontainebleau Las Vegas president, told state gambling regulators last month that the resort will employ more than 7,000 workers.
The property has 1,300 slot machines, 128 gambling tables and more than 36 bars and restaurants – some featuring chefs with Miami roots.
Officials said hotel room rates for the opening started around $300 (£239) nightly.
The structure is the tallest occupiable building in Nevada and second-tallest in Las Vegas, behind the nearby Strat tower observation deck at 1,149 feet (350 meters).
The Fontainebleau was built on the site of the El Rancho hotel, which dated to 1948 and was imploded in 2000 after Soffer and condominium developer Turnberry Associates bought it.
Fontainebleau is adjacent to the newest section of the Las Vegas Convention Center, a $1billion expanse that opened in January 2021, and has a down-the-Strip view of the brightly lit Sphere concert and entertainment venue that opened in September.
