A Las Vegas-interested FrontBurnervian passes along the following item from here:
There’s buzz making the rounds that Billy Crystal turned down $500,000 to perform at a private Walgreens convention at Paris Las Vegas. Why? They were going to put him on before Jessica Simpson. Walgreens upped the ante, Crystal accepted, but then turned it down.
As our friendly FBer points out, “Depending on how you feel about Billy Crystal, that’s either funny or sad.” I’m going to go with funny. Wait. Sad. No. I was right the first time.
