Iliza Shlesinger: ‘Any guy who’s been to Las Vegas with me knows it’s bath time’

The last famous person who phoned me after showering was Bill Cosby, a few years ago. This time, it’s Iliza Shlesinger, but she’s not trying to be sexy with me. She’s having hair issues and needs to multitask.

“My hair is just like five pieces of very soft straw that needs managing,” Shlesinger said. “I touch my hair a lot, and that makes it crazy. At one point, it’s like, ‘Oh, cute and clunky.’ At another point, it’s like, ‘Oh, can she not afford a shower?’ ”

Now, Shlesinger is in the never-humid-hair desert of Las Vegas, performing stand-up comedy Saturday at the Venetian’s “Lipshtick” series, with opener Fortune Feimster.

Shlesinger has performed several concerts and private shows in Vegas this year.

“It’s always nice to be paid to be in Las Vegas,” she said. “That way, you don’t feel like a total piece of human garbage when you’re hungover the next day coming home.”

What in the world does she do in quaint little Vegas that makes her feel like human garbage?

“You go for a party, right? Then you leave. You’ve lost a lot of money at the blackjack table. You’ve lost money drinking. You’ve probably broken a heel or two. You’re bloated from drinking. You’re fat and gross.

“I don’t think anyone leaves Las Vegas rejuvenated, their skin shining, their bank accounts glowing. No one leaves Vegas, like, ‘I didn’t make one mistake. That felt great. Back to work.’ ”

Shlesinger then said something even some locals can relate to: One of the perks of staying on the Strip is luxuriating (or whatever-ing) in those big hotel tubs.

“Whenever I play Las Vegas, they always give you a suite, and it’s really nice, and it always comes with a large bathtub. So cut to me, and whoever I’m with, saying, ‘Let’s go out drinking, but then, we’re going to take a bath.

“Any guy who’s been to Las Vegas with me knows it’s bath time.”

Shlesinger has a new podcast, “Truth and Iliza,” and you can pay your allegiance to her on Twitter (@iliza), where she displays her devotion to her cute little doggie.

‘BOARDWALK’ and ‘SPEED’ STARS

Another movie is getting set to film downtown.

Michael Shannon of “Boardwalk Empire” will portray a Vegas chef who falls for a woman played by Imogen Poots of “Need For Speed.”

It’s being produced by Christopher Ramirez under local Lola Pictures, with New York’s Parts & Labor (“Love is Strange”).

The film will shoot Dec. 1 around Vegas and then relocate to Paris for a week in January.

More casting should be announced soon.

$2 MILLION BRAS

You’ll remember I told you two Victoria’s Secret models, Adriana Lima and Alessandra Ambrosio, would show off $2 million bras featuring 16,000 rubies, diamonds, blue and light blue sapphires.

Well, this happened Thursday at Fashion Show Mall. Feel free to peruse the photos, courtesy of fullpicture.com, which are not actually on the models. So. Oh well.
