She’s probably the only girl in America who could show up in a bikini at the entrance of a nightclub restaurant and be warmly welcomed inside! American Idol contestant Katrina Darrell, aka “Bikini Girl,” would simply not be turned away!

The welcome carpet was rolled out for her at Hawaiian Tropic Zone in Planet Hollywood’s Miracle Mile when she hosted a party there, and she welcomed many lovely ladies into her VIP booth. She even joined the go-go dancers on stage to shake her assets.

Our contributing photographer Scott Harrison was on hand for our photo gallery. Katrina spent the evening signing autographs and taking photos with fans but managed to find time to enjoy a strawberry-flavored hookah while sipping on Ed Hardy vodka cocktails.
