Real Housewife Gretchen Rossi dazzled in a gray satin Bebe dress and love was in the air! She even had rhinestone hearts on her red polished toenails. She and boyfriend Slade Smiley were embracing and hand in hand on the red carpet, never letting each other go. When asked if she would be getting married to Slade (he asked her father for her hand in last week’s episode), she said, “I’ve been married, we’re just having fun now.” And never one to disappoint, Gretchen gave us some Real Housewives dish. For the first time in Housewife history the men will be at the reunion show. Her prediction, “Vicki will storm off the show and all the men will give Slade a hard time.” She and Slade were just at The Palazzo for Valentines Day. “We love the Palazzo!” “From the suites to the shopping to the restaurants its amazing!”

Dancing with the Stars and Brothers and Sisters star Gilles Marini was all smiles as he mentioned this was his first time at The Palazzo. “I’m so excited to be here and to have shrimp at Lagasse’s Stadium.” Gilles also enjoyed playing a game of pool inside the luxury boxes at Stadium. “This is great!,” he exclaimed. When asked if he knew who the newest cast members were for the next season of Dancing With the Stars he nodded but remained tightlipped. Inside the party he was seen dipping Gretchen Rossi. Could she be a possible new contestant on the hit show? He did drop that he would be “visiting the show” during the season.

Melrose Place hottie Shaun Sipos came down from his Palazzo suite in good spirits. “Let’s Roll!” he said while being escorted inside the party. He even dropped that in the new season of Melrose Place he and another character would start committing burglaries and someone would wind up in jail! After the premiere, Sipos and friends went up to LAVO nightclub to continue the festivities. Sipos also enjoyed a deep tissue massage at Canyon Ranch Spaclub and dinner at hotspot LAVO.

Inside the party guests sipped on fun cocktails such as the “Palazzopolitan” and “Fly Girl Flirtini,” sponsored by Veev, Ambhar, Belvedere and Tyku, while enjoying delicious Lagasse’s Stadium appetizers such as Beef Roulade, Creole Broiled Shrimp, Sausage & Peppers Stromboli and Chicken Satay and Mini Double Chocolate Cupcakes and Mini NY Style Cheescakes, all seasoned with the flavor profile that made celebrity chef Emeril Lagasse famous.

“Fly Girls,” will debut on March 24, 2010 on The CW. Be sure to watch the “Fly Girls” episode featuring The Palazzo on Wednesday, April 14.
