Superstar CeeLo Green arrived on The Strip this evening and, in his signature over-the-top and flamboyant style, played a flaming piano while he paraded down Las Vegas Boulevard toward the residency home for his new show “Loberace” at Planet Hollywood.

Green is well-known for his work with Gnarls Barkley, as a solo artist and his big hit “Forget You” and as a judge on NBC’s “The Voice.” “Loberace” debuts in the “Peepshow” theater on Wednesday, with a VIP grand opening Saturday night.
