Meanwhile, over at the Palms, stand-up comic and TV host Chelsea Handler was with her beaufriend, top TV executive Ted Harbert, who at 53 is 20 years older than her. Palms owner George Maloof hosted a dinner in his N9NE Steakhouse for Chelsea, Ted and 12 of their pals. The twosome started with lobster dumplings and followed with mushrooms and onions on a petite filet streak and Chelsea adding mac and cheese as a side dish. Both enjoyed their vodka on the rocks. After dinner she went up to both the Moon and Playboy Club. Next night after her show in the Pearl concert theater she repeated the two nightclub parties but was presented with a Playboy key. Also at N9NE was Vegas-born and Eldorado High School grad Steven Jackson of the St. Louis Rams, and after dining at the Nove Italian restaurant comedy actor Martin Lawrence hopped up to Playboy. Oscar award-winning American rap group Three 6 Mafia partied until 3 a.m. at the Rain nightclub after their hip-hop performance.
