Divine News: Bette Midler to play Vegas 20 weeks a year!

The Divine Miss M just gave me another reason to visit Las Vegas. Liz Smith reports in her column today that Miss Midler is currently rehearsing for a big extravaganza that will replace Celine Dion at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace. Celine is fine and all but Bette? She is a total original and the three times I've seen her in concert have all been fun and different. She tells Smith that her characters Delores Delago, the Mermaids and Sophie will be included along with a lot of new stuff. She will open in Vegas in February.
She really is a rose, the wind beneath our wings...
