Prince Harry’s Vegas strip

Friday, 22 Aug, 2012 0

The Internet was afire yesterday with viral images of Britain’s ginger Prince Harry partying in Vegas. Celebrity gossip website TMZ published nude photos of hell-raising Harry, who had presumably been playing a game of strip pool when a fellow guest snapped the pictures.  Other images published along with the nude shots showed a shirtless Harry partying at the MGM Grand Resort & Casino’s Wet Republic Ultra Pool.

The images quickly went viral with some news sites reporting the nude photos were taken at the Wynn Las Vegas & Encore Resort and others saying the VIP suite shown in the snapshots was at the MGM Grand.

TravelMole contacted both the MGM Grand and Wynn Las Vegas for clarification.  The statement from Wynn’s flack was a frosty, "No comment!" .

While the MGM Grand confirms that Harry indeed partied at the Wet Republic Ultra Pool, they said that the VIP suite, shown in the nude pictures of the Prince, is not at the MGM.

The most thoughtful response, however, came from Courtney Fitzgerald of the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority:

"Las Vegas is excited that Prince Harry continues to visit the destination for his stateside getaways. Las Vegas is about adult freedom and that means different things to different people.  It’s important for friends to know what activities can be shared publicly and what activities are protected by the code of "What Happens in Vegas, Stays in Vegas."

Words of wisdom.

Friends don’t let friends with cell phone cameras ignore the Vegas Code.
