The Rio All-Suite Hotel becomes beefcake central today through Wednesday as Chippendales dancers -- from East Coast, West Coast and European tours, the Boston cast and the Rio's resident troupe -- congregate for the 2006 "Men of Chippendales" calendar.

The 21 hunky guys -- including Las Vegan cast members Jeff Beech, John Brice, Kevin Cornell, Charles Dera, Matt Kennedy, Steve Kim, Nathan Minor and John Rivera -- will pose for photographer Dan Peterson in the Rio's presidential, palazzo and honeymoon suites.

And Peterson definitely has experience when it comes to Chippendale dudes -- and calendars. During a 1980s stint in the Los Angeles edition, he appeared in (or on the cover of) five Chippendales calendars. Since then, he's photographed more than 350 other calendars.
