The Hills Hotel :: Vegas Vacation at The Venetian

Where: 3355 Las Vegas Boulevard South [map], Las Vegas, NV, United States, 89109

What, you forgot to tune in to The Hills last night because you thought it was airing on Monday? Apparently, last night's eppie was meant to be a special lead-in to the VMA's (which we're not even going to address right now), and luckily our DVR caught it -- but if yours didn't, check out our brother blog Jaunted's detailed recap here.

Alright so: the gang went to Vegas via the private jet of some dude that Lauren was dating but has since broken up with but in true Hills fashion they were all like "oh, whatever, let's take the plane anyway."

They jetted out to sin city and headed straight for The Venetian, the hotel lucky enough to have been selected to serve as the backdrop for the heartwrenching, sincere rollercoaster of drama that is Lauren C's life.

Where 'The Sopranos' Watched the Series Finale

Where: 5731 State Road 7 Aka 441 [map], Hollywood, FL, United States, 33314

James Gandolfini, Lorraine Bracco and some of the rest of the Sopranos cast chose (i.e. were paid) to watch the series finale of their hit show at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Fl. Ironically, this is where Anna Nicole Smith died thus ending, in a way, her own show.

However you want to interpret the show's ending**, the series is over and the cast celebrated its passing with a bang.

The elaborate dinner, featuring a cocktail area which re-created scenes from the program, huge overhead screens to show the final episode, and special touches like a cannoli tree for deserts and cakes decorated with bullets and guns, was off limits to the average fans, but that didn't stop people from lining up to catch a glimpse of the stars on the red carpet.

We just hope they didn't serve the manigott next to the recreated scene of Phil Leotardo's last moments.

**Since we're from New Jersey we feel obligated to weigh in on the finale here with a few words: Tony Soprano gets whacked in the end, because the show starts and ends with Tony and when Tony ends, the show ends, capisce? We're sure there is some fancy shcmancy literary way to interpret the finale but this is how we run "this thing of ours."
