The adult movie world’s top actresses will pose for a provocative party next month at the Palms. It all starts June 4 with the weekly Ditch Fridays and continues that night at Rain. The first girls set for the weekend of fun in the sun are Kayden Kross, Riley Steele, Raven Alexis, Joanna Angel, Misty Stone, Kagney Linn Karter, Courtney Cummz, Sara Sloane, Kirsten Price, Belladonna, Jenna Haze, Tori Black, Savanna Samson and Bobbi Starr. Several were at the Palms this year for the AVN Awards.

Meantime, Playboy Playmates took over the day-to-night celebration at Wet Republic and Tabu Ultra Lounge at MGM Grand. Jaime Edmondson, January 2010 Playmate, Heather Rae Young, February 2010 Playmate and Danielle Fornarelli, Playboy model, began the party at the ultra pool, where they mingled with fans and danced to DJ Hollywood’s poolside beats.

The ladies lounged in their cabana until sundown, when they moved the festivities to the nightspot. Dressed in short, sexy summer dresses, the Playmates turned more than a few heads upon arrival and danced the night away with fans while resident DJ Loczi spun hits from behind the wheels of steel.
