On-screen ‘Angels’ play all night long
May 14, 2007 - 9:00 pm
Cameron Diaz and Drew Barrymore, co-stars of "Charlie's Angels," have teamed up again, this time on an all-night tour of Sin City.
Spies say Diaz's night got off to a sentimental start Saturday. When her friend Colin Hanks and his girlfriend joined Diaz and Barrymore during dinner at Stack restaurant (Mirage), Diaz became teary-eyed as Hanks had a birthday cake delivered for his girlfriend.
But she later was seen dancing and laughing it up with Barrymore in the VIP section at Jet (Mirage).
Illusionist Criss Angel joined their party about 2 a.m. and began performing magic tricks. They all headed for Mandalay Bay about 3 a.m. and played roulette until 5 a.m., when Diaz and Angel sort of disappeared.
