With several months to go before Bette Midler takes Céline Dion’s place at the Colosseum at Caesar’s Palace, she is keeping herself busy . . . planting trees. The Divine Miss M joined New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg in the Bronx this week to plant the first tree of an ambitious goal of one million. While Ms. Midler, founder of the New York Restoration Project, ensures that from a distance the boroughs look much more green, ticket sales for her upcoming Las Vegas stint put her at number five in the rankings.
The eco-friendly songstress would be pleased to know that also “new” to the Vegas chart this week is the show Stomp Out Loud (Mister D: If I’m not mistaken, these guys were featured in Bette’s “Mondo Beyondo”), a unique musical production performed amidst piles of salvaged junk. The show claims the number ten spot, demonstrating that rhythm and recycling can go hand in hand.
