Dancing With the Stars hero parties with Olympic medal winner; first photos of star fashions

By Robin Leach

It was an all-star turnout at Tryst, the Steve Wynn nightclub, when pro dancer Maksim Chmerkovskiy from Dancing with the Stars partied with a glittering crowd, including Tim Hutton, an Olympic silver medal winner in Beijing, as a member of the United States Olympic water polo team. Maks has been choreographing new routines being added to the Franco Dragone "Le Reve" water-themed spectacular at the Wynn Las Vegas. He posed for photos with fans, including cocktail server Angie Feliciano.

Also partying at Tryst were NBA players Jermaine O’Neal of the Toronto Raptors and Corey Maggette of the Golden State Warriors. Mindfreak illusionist Criss Angel made a late-night appearance -- and ran into on-again/off-again galpal Giselle Diaz. Spies tell me though that they did leave Tryst together! Watching the magician being mobbed by frenzied female fans was former fighter Mike Tyson and Miss Washington, Elyse Umemoto, who was second runner-up in last year’s Miss America pageant. Don’t jump to wrong conclusions because they were at separate tables!

Luxe Life also has obtained the first photos of the three dancers we will be monitoring on the new season of DWTS set to begin Sept. 22: Former Flamingo headliner Toni Braxton, Vegas nightclub regular Lance Bass and sassy Kim Kardashian, who has shot many of her Keeping Up with the Kardashian episodes here.
