"Voted Best Place to Spot Celebrities"
Voted Best Place to Spot Celebrities in Review-Journal's "Best of Las Vegas" readers poll '07 (staff pick)
"For a while, Tao's guest list was the barometer of sickeningly undeserved fame. But since Britney's New Year's Eve collapse, all Hollywood publicists send their clients here for the tabloid coverage they claim is unwanted. This velvet rope has become more difficult to pass than a 2-pound kidney stone."
Voted Best Nightclub in Review-Journal's "Best of Las Vegas" readers poll '07
The best place for celebrity sightings outside the Review-Journal newsroom, Pure is where the beautiful people -- and Paris Hilton -- flock to revel in their fabulousness. Sure, you could do your taxes, tune nine pianos and rebuild the engine to a '75 Ford Pinto in the time it takes to get into the place, but with 36,000 square feet of opulence and a swank terrace with some of the best views of the Strip, it will be worth the wait.
(Voted "Best Nightclub" and "Worst Club Line" in CityLife magazine poll)
Best Nightclub
"No matter how critical of the megaclub we've been, there's one thing we can't take away from it: People fucking love this place. Just check the line, an undulating mass of looky-loos and eager-beavers dressed to impress -- or just to show off their pecs and tits. Lorded over by resident DJs Hollywood, AM and Frank Richards, Pure continues to attract a rich tapestry of rich celebs to its pearly gates, while maintaining a Tuesday night soiree dedicated to us golden locals, a tough balancing act the club manages with a surprising ease."
Worst Club Line
"To our mind, all club lines suck the holy life shining inside your body out your anal pore. Seriously, have you seen Body English on a Sunday night? What about Tao on a Thursday? Both are, like, nine people thick in spots. Still, we sympathize with your anointment of the Caesars Palace megaclub's heathen gathering outside its doors, if for no other reason than there's more than one line. Last count, we spotted three -- one of which was devoted exclusively to women. So, yeah, Pure's line sucks. But so does everyone else's."
