These Amazing Vegas Acts Are Worth Every Penny
Frank Sinatra
“Ole Blue Eyes” has a long and storied legend as a Vegas performer. Part of the legendary ‘Rat Pack,’ Sinatra made his Vegas debut in 1951 headlining at the Desert Inn as a seasoned solo artist. Las Vegas was just beginning to emerge as a desired desert destination for relaxation and entertainment when Sinatra began his tenure.
A Smithsonian article said ” “He was the spark that changed Vegas from a dusty Western town into something glamorous.” While Sinatra became a Copa Room headliner, he also became a co-owner of the famous Sands, truly laying stake to the future of Las Vegas. Over the next twenty years, Sinatra’s performances in Vegas cemented his legend as one of the most influential and beloved crooners of his time.
