Chippendales®, the hottest brand in ladies entertainment, is about to get even hotter this summer when Joey Lawrence, star of television, music, stage and screen, adds "Las Vegas headliner" to his already impressive career. Lawrence will join the acclaimed Las Vegas production as the celebrity guest star for three weeks only at the Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino (June 7th through June 24th, Thursdays through Sundays), where he will flex his vocal cords and muscles as he sings, dances and hosts the #1 male revue in the Las Vegas.

"We are thrilled to have someone as talented as Joey joining our show this summer – he's a true triple-threat," says Kevin Denberg, Managing Partner of Chippendales. "With the combination of our award-winning show and the forthcoming 'Magic Mike' film starring Channing Tatum, the male revue is making its way back into the mainstream and we expect the addition of Joey to drive even more excitement to the industry."

For more than three decades, sinful schoolboy charm and naughty fantasy colliding with the boy next door has been the winning combination that has established the Chippendales® show as a must see for birthday girls, bachelorette parties, and girls who just want to have fun. The iconic bare-chested men with their trademark cuffs and collar are a household name across the globe and instantly associated with being The Ultimate Girls Night Out™! In March 2012, the production won both the Readers' and Critics' Choice in the annual "Best of Las Vegas" awards – adding to an already impressive collection of accolades. On May 31st the show will mark another Las Vegas milestone - its 4,000th performance at the Rio.

Charming and entertaining and an undeniable talent, Joey Lawrence is one of the most sought after actors in the entertainment business today. With a career spanning over twenty-five years in film, television, and music, Lawrence has been in the public eye since he was six years old. He rose to pop-culture fame as a teenager on the 90s hit television series "Blossom," where his character Joey Russo stole the hearts of teenage girls around the globe. Today, Lawrence can be seen starring on the #1 ABC Family series "Melissa & Joey," costarring Melissa Joan Hart, which is about to debut its second season.

In addition to numerous sitcoms, Joey has starred on Broadway as Billy Fiynn in the hit musical "Chicago" and, in many feature films, including "Urban Legends: Final Cut." No stranger to pop music world, Joey's international hit single "Nothin' My Love Can?t Fix" hit #10 on Billboard Top 40 Mainstream charts. He is currently working on his third studio album, and in late 2011 released the brand new single "Rolled."
