Bravo is unleashing ‘Project Vegas,’ and odds are you’re a candidate

Bravo is making its first attempt at developing a reality TV show in VegasVille and is pretty much asking any local resident with a pulse to apply.

“Project Vegas,” the working title of a heretofore mysterious reality TV series set in Las Vegas, is looking for the following (this information is from a flier trumpeting the series): “Showgirls, club promoters, moguls, models, restaurateurs, drag queens, professional gamblers, VIP service workers and everything in between.”

To apply, send two recent photos and contact information with a phone number ASAP to projectvegascasting@gmail.com.

No one, it seems, is off limits, and if you happen to be a mogul who models as a drag queen, Christmas might come early.

The flier also states, “We are scouting Vegas for the most beautiful, confident heartthrobs, heroes and villains to star in their own reality series. … It’s not only about you. We want your friends, family and frenemies, too!”

The show is not affiliated with “Sin City Rules,” formerly titled “Vegas High Rollers,” which premieres on TLC on Dec. 9.

The two projects reinforce the belief that, in Las Vegas, reality is quite the concept.

Criss Angel survives 'the most dangerous and frightening thing I’ve ever done in my life'

June 18, 2013 • 2:25 p.m.

For 10 nail-biting minutes, several thousand people stood in total silence and watched magician Criss Angel inch his way, blindfolded, across two steel beams swaying 50 feet in the air. This was no illusion for the “Believe” star. No tricks, nothing hidden, no sleight of hand or wizardry to divert attention. The "Mindfreak" star, who is shooting a new series of one-hour specials for Spike TV, was in full view of the audience members, who stopped shopping at the Fashion Show mall on the Strip.
