WELCOME TO Kimo’s Vegas ... The Player’s Edge!

MARC BELL, KEYMASTER of the Penthouse men’s magazine empire, says the magazine is considering expanding into a casino themed after it ... or maybe it can bite the Palms/Playboy model and open a suite, a pool and have Pets as dealers in an existing hotel?

THE KARDASHIAN SISTERS have agreed to be the paid-to-party celebrities at LAX on New Year’s Eve ... Or perhaps you’d rather be with Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz at Pure.

THIS YEAR’S New Year’s Eve fireworks will be set off from parking lots and not rooftops as usual, so the best views will be ground level at Caesars Palace, Luxor, Mandalay Bay, MGM, Paris, Treasure Island and the Stratosphere ... Fire in da hole!

J. TERRENCE LANNI, chief executive officer and chairman of the board for MGM Mirage, abruptly resigned last week for personal reasons. A few days earlier, the Wall Street Journal revealed that USC did not issue him an MBA, leading some to speculate that as the cause of his rushed retirement. It’s unlikely a diploma would be such an important factor since the capo di tutti capi has been chairman of the company since 1995 and CEO since 2001 ...

I DON’T GET IT ... For the first time ever, a topless Las Vegas show goes un-topless. The longest-running show on the Las Vegas Strip, Jubilee!, has announced that you can bring your 13-year-old to its 7:30 p.m. Saturday shows - but it’s really made for adults.
