International television and film star Pamela Anderson will join illusionist Hans Klok – the world's fastest magician -- in The Beauty of Magic, the new show at the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino Theater for the Performing Arts. She replaces Carmen Electra.
"The stage spectacular will combine the illusions of Klok, fresh off his sold-out European tour with brand new illusions created just for Las Vegas, with the electrifying Anderson in a completely new and unique production," stated press notes.
"I love magic! I love doing things out of the ordinary and of course I'm always up for an adventure, as this will definitely be one," said Anderson, the former "Baywatch" star. "I knew that one day my dream of being a Vegas showgirl would come true -- even better a magician's assistant. It's every girl's fantasy. I'm thrilled!"
After performing his first magic trick at the age of ten, Hans Klok went on to win a number of magician championships as a young man, including the European Youth Magician Champion Trophy, the Tommy Cooper Trophy and first prize at the Grand Prix of The Netherlands. He soon began to appear on television specials in both Europe and the United States, including "The World's Greatest Magic" on NBC and "The Masters of Magic" on ABC. Now hailed as the fastest magician in the world and "The Dutch Copperfield," Klok's live stage shows have been selling out large arenas throughout Europe and Asia for the past decade.
The Beauty of Magic is produced by Stage Entertainment in conjunction with Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino.
