@jhazzroucher: fair enough must be a Canadian/french thing :)

Imo Las Vegas care more about Céline Dion than Québec/France... And Jhazz is not from Canada if you implied such a thing.

Just wanted to point this out, not hating or anything, but in the last image she looks dead inside, just like Iggy does in her pictures.
