It's official that the most prestigious event in the bodybuilding world will return to Vegas for four days starting Sept. 24. The bodybuilding competition is held annually by the International Federation of BodyBuilders and the win is considered the highest accolade in the field. Hometown hero Jay Cutler will defend his title for the third consecutive year.

Fitness enthusiasts from around the world will take part in the Mr. Olympia, Ms. Olympia and Fitness and Figure Olympia Championships at the Orleans Arena. Ms. Olympia, obviously for female bodybuilders, will feature winners Iris Kyle, Adela Garcia and Jenny Lynn, all returning to defend their titles in the events. Luxe Life will talk with Jay closer to the event and have that exclusive interview just before the big weekend and the Sept. 27 finals!
