Haute Event: Fergie and Kanye West Help Open the New 1OAK on New Year’s Eve
On New Year’s Eve, Kanye West joined party host Fergie to celebrate the premiere of the highly anticipated 1OAK Las Vegas at the Mirage. After much speculation surrounding his Twitter campaign to DJ on New Year’s Eve, Kanye took the stage and thrilled party-goers with a three-hour set.
Dubbing himself YEEZYWORLDPEACE, Ye mixed tracks for Fergie, her hubby Josh Duhamel and some of the biggest names in Hollywood to usher in a new era of the 1 OAK brand with 1 OAK co-founders Richie Akiva and Scott Sartiano.
Despite being in the same city and and with rumors that Kanye has been getting close with Kim Kardashian, the two did not spend New Year’s Eve together and instead Kanye had a stunning brunette on his arm.
The exciting New Year’s Eve party and weekend celebration marked a pre-cursor to 1OAK’s grand opening weekend slated for Jan. 27, 2012.
A star-studded lineup of celebrities broke the new club in, including Joseph Gordon Levitt, David Katzenberg, Kid Cudi, Topher Grace, Big Sean, Jason Ritter and bandmates from Foster The People including Mark Foster, Mark Pontius and Cubbie Fink. The celebs danced the night away to the sounds of West and 1OAK resident DJ Jesse Marco
A surprise came from the host herself as Fergie took to the mic after the New Year’s BANG, while confetti guns shot white snowflakes into the air filling the 1,600-person venue and thrilling party-goers.
Fergie even serenaded her husband with ’80s songs. Following the performance, Fergie sliced herself a piece of her New Year’s cake for herself and Josh as YEEZYWORLDPEACE played through the night for the entertainment industry’s finest.
