Internet hackers send out unauthorized Siegfried & Roy news release

By Robin Leach

An unauthorized press release announcing Siegfried & Roy’s pending involvement with producer Nicole Durr’s new Sahara show Raw Talent Live was sent out at the weekend -- as the result of an illegal internet hacking. Nicole’s PR folks revealed that somebody gained the password to access their mailing lists and sent out a “totally untrue and unfounded” news story announcing the illusionist’s involvement with ND’s next show.

The report rumored that the “Masters of the Impossible” were returning to a new venture with her on the Strip. Siegfried & Roy manager Bernie Yuman stated there was no truth to the false story -- and that the only magic performance the headliners would be doing will be the “one night only moment of magic” for the Keep Memory Alive gala to benefit the downtown Lou Ruvo Brain Institute at the Bellagio on February 28.

So if you read any headlines and stories stating that Siegfried & Roy are reuniting to resume magic performances here in Vegas, please ignore them -– except for the one-night only history-making KMA benefit!
