Midler To Close Vegas Residency In January



Veteran entertainer Bette Midler will bring the curtain down on her Las Vegas residency in January.

The Hollywood singer/actress has been a regular at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace Hotel and Casino since debuting The Showgirl Must Go On in February 2008.

But she will perform the show for the last time on 31 January, it was announced on Thursday.

In a statement, Midler says, "What a fabulous two years this has been...

"These legs have had such a great run in the desert - it may be time to haul them to places with more humidity and fewer slot machines."

Midler is bringing the Sin City show to an end so she can head back into the recording studio to compile an album of love songs.
