Rita Ora, Jessica Lowndes, Kellan Lutz At TAO And LAVO Las Vegas
International pop star Rita Ora hosted TAO Las Vegas Nightclub on Saturday, March 30, 2013. Donning a floral print Kye dress, Ferragamo boots and jewelry by Ambush, Rita posed for a few shots on the red carpet.
Ora took photos with fans before joining friends in the restaurant where the group dined on signature favorites.
After dinner, they made their way into the nightclub where DJ Five led the charge in the DJ booth. As he announced Rita’s arrival, the club cheered and all eyes turned to the pop star, sparking a camera phone frenzy.
The songstress and friends overlooked the dance floor from their VIP booth and took in the high energy club scene including TAO’s Bottle Fairy, who amazed Rita with her flying acrobatics.
Later in the night, she jumped on the mic and took to the stage, treating partygoers to a surprise performance of hit songs “Radioactive” and “RIP.” Rita captivated the packed room as hands filled the air and fans sang along to every lyric.
Also spotted at TAO was 90210’s Jessica Lowndes, who stopped by Rita’s table in the dining room to say hello to the singer, who once guest starred on the TV show. Lowndes and friends, including new boyfriend model and former rugby player Thom Evans, enjoyed favorites including Satay Bass, Crispy Rice, Kung Pao Chicken and more before heading up to the nightclub.
They did celebratory shots in honor of Thom’s upcoming 28th birthday on Tuesday. Earlier in the day she soaked up the sun at TAO Beach, drinking Skinny Girl Margaritas and snacking on Lobster Tacos.
Twilight star Kellan Lutz treated his father Brad to a special birthday dinner at TAO. A dinner of Yellowtail Jalapeno, Buddha Chicken and Sushi was topped with a birthday dessert.
At LAVO Saturday actor AJ Buckley shared appetizers and entrees with fiancé Abigail Ochse, who was celebrating a birthday. They later hit TAO Nightclub.
