Photo Diary: Alice Does Vegas

published on 14 April 2004

Alice Hawkins travelled to Las Vegas to document the action as housemate Ashley Revell gambled the entirity of his assets on one spin of the roulette table. Hawkins' camera shows another side of this scheme: the $8,000 penthouse with private bowling alley, the round-the-clock chef and bar staff, and the thirty-stripper deep suite party to mark the event. Out of the casino, she took to the streets, demonstrating her keen eye for everyday burlesque.
