Brandi Williams to MC Aces Gala
LAS VEGAS, Nevada – (PRESS RELEASE) -- TV poker tournament host Brandi Williams will MC Aces.com's star-studded Hollywood gala celebrating Warner Brothers' release of Aces the Movie, the sexy new poker movie sponsored by the popular online casino. The event, organized by celebrity party planners Alex Quinn Presents, will be held at The Friars of Beverly Hills on October 6th. Jazz/hip hop fusion artists 2Deep will entertain at the casino-themed extravaganza. Hundreds of Aces.com players have received special invitations and five Aces.com tournament champions are being flown in to attend the gala. Aces the Movie director and producer Daniel Zirilli and Christina Morris, star of the film, will be special guests.
"This party is the culmination of our sponsorship of Aces the Movie," explained Aces.com Manager Rene Quesada. "We're sending DVDs to our members, we've had the director and cast hosting online tournaments, and we partied at the WSOP with Christina Morris and Sheena Chou, two of the stars of the movie."
MC Brandi Williams has been called the 'Queen of Hearts,' and the 'Princess of Poker' by every gambling magazine on newsstands and over 7 million viewers worldwide watch her every week as host of the hugely popular show 'The Ultimate Poker Challenge.' The 24 year old who was named 'One of the 50 Sexiest Women of 2005' by Femme Fatales Magazine has worked alongside American Idol's Ryan Seacrest, and has shared the stage with other celebrities such as Alan Thicke and Donny Osmond. The former Arizona Cardinals Cheerleader just shot a pilot for the producers of Extra for a teenage version of their highly rated show.
"Brandi will keep the evening moving all right," said Francine Marseille of event coordinators Alex Quinn Presents. "It's going to be a casino night – Brandi will be introducing winners when she's not schmoozing the red carpet crowd or playing a few casino games herself."
2Deep -- saxophonist Vondell Henderson & vocalist Mike J (Michael Kurt Jackson) -- will keep the crowd swaying to their unique fusion of Contemporary and Classic R&B, Hip Hop, Jazz and Soul. 2Deep appeared last month at the Vanguard Hollywood and BB Kings, and have just released a new single, "Somebody".
