As Bette Midler’s stint on Las Vegas is coming to an end, it looks like Cher will be returning. The iconic diva is returning not only this month and through December 20th but also in Spring 2010. Tickets for the singer’s spring run at The Colosseum at Caesar’s Palace are going on sale this Saturday, November 14th. There will be 24 performances between April 10-25 and May 8-30. The director and choreographer of her show, Doriana Sanchez, explained “We are so excited to return to The Colosseum at Caesars Palace and have made wonderful, new changes to the show, including a number choreographed by my dear friend Tyce Diorio from So You Think You Can Dance. It pays homage to the great movie musicals, complete with incredible costumes by Bob Mackie. We are thrilled to be able to present some really fun and new things for the audiences to see.”

It was recently announced that Bette Midler will soon be ending her stint on the Las Vegas strip. After a relatively show two year run at Caesars Palace, the singer/actress will be giving her final performance on January 31, 2010. I think that it’s just about time that she puts an end to her show as her tickets haven’t really been selling as well as it had been. I wonder who’s going to take her place. Las Vegas has seen the likes of Cher, Celine Dion and Mariah Carey already. Could another diva make its way to the strip? Or is someone going to make a return?

The singer recently admitted that 50 Cent is very keen on singing songs with her… so keen, in fact, that he is willing to go for 1920’s jazz if necessary. Bette Midler said the following about 50 Cent’s wishes for a duet: “Little Jewish lady and the great big rapper. He’s such a doll. I love him. He’s gorgeous. I was hoping we’d sing songs from the Depression, but he’s so young that I don’t think he knows any of them. I’m going to have to check things out and see what he feels like singing.” Well, as far as 50 Cent is concerned he’d probably even go for heavy metal if Bette Midler asked it of him. This is going to be fun to see!
