One of the great charitable causes that Mirage headliner Terry Fator quietly supports is his work with America’s wounded warriors. Terry went to the Universal Hilton in Los Angeles to raise money for the Iraq Star Foundation caring for the brave service members injured on duty in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Terry put on a free show for the troops and their supporters, with all proceeds going to the charity. Our contributing photographer Joan Jett was on hand for this photo gallery.

Terry, incidentally, will be joining me as one of the four revolving celebrities at Matt Donnelly’s Celebrity Tarot Lounge on Friday and Saturday of next week at the Stage Door Theater in Town Square when we try our skills at improv comedy in a very much unscripted, unrehearsed and unexpected production!

Check out ImYourPuppet.com to take a starring role in Terry’s new viral video campaign. You can pick one of three of his ventriloquist dolls, pop your name and photo where indicated and, voila, you are making news as a new star on the Strip in Terry’s show! It’s amazing technology and a fun way to ensure that Las Vegas is on the world map.

Back home at The Mirage, Terry recently met gorgeous Pussycat Dolls singer Nicole Scherzinger when she stopped backstage at his show.
