I run Vegas sex resort loved by A-list CELEBS with over 100 beauties – we offer unique experiences they won't forget
AT a picturesque ranch near the Vegas strip, madam Dena Duff offers a discreet service. Celebrity hotspot Sheri's Ranch has strict protocols - particularly with some of the pricier experiences costing eye-watering six-figure sums. 10 10 Dena Duff, 54, has been the madam of the venue in Pahrump, Nevada, for 19 years. She says the brothel, which is licensed, has been turning the heads of the famous who flock from Sin City. And staff have measures in place to ensure sex-obsessed A-listers don't get caught. Duff told The Sun: 'We've absolutely had celebrities and well-known people come through these doors. 'But whenever anybody asks me who they are, my lips are sealed. 'Usually, if they're of a higher profile when they arrive, it's set up prior and we have arrangements where they go right with the lady that they're coming here to see. 'Or we have private areas where we could do a meet and greet. 'There is a bar and restaurant at Sheri's and many clients do hang out in the bar, have a drink and have some lunch. 'We also get people who come in just to have lunch and aren't actually looking to see any of us. 'It's not strictly necessary that if someone comes, they have an appointment. 'We follow an appointment protocol without having to put celebrities out in the bar for everyone to see, if that's something they'd prefer. 'That happens even sometimes just for people who are very shy and nervous, even if they aren't necessarily famous, but then of course we are prepared as well when these higher profile clients come in.' Prostitution is illegal in Las Vegas, but is legal at Sheri's Ranch, which lies around 60 miles from the strip, thanks to a loophole. Some of the pricier experiences cost six-figure sums - particularly for stays at their hotel, staff confirmed. Each worker determines their own rates - and the resort has 100 licensed sex workers who rotate, with 25 available at any one time It now also offers customers the chance to film their experiences with women who work there, keeping a copy with permission. Married porn star Electra Rayne, 28, has been working as a sex worker at the venue for two years. She offers packages including a 'double porn star experience' with fellow adult actress Summer Hart. Rayne says she also hosts 'toy parties' and knows a colleague who offers a 'double redhead experience'. 10 She told The Sun: 'The idea of exchanging sex for money was always something that really interested me. 'I really like being able to bring joy to lots of people. "It's not necessarily sexually gratifying, but it is gratifying to be able to figure out what someone wants, what is enjoyable for them, and then to be able to give it to them. "When I moved to Las Vegas, I had heard that there were legal ranches. 'I didn't know very much about them but I've always been a big rule follower to the point where my family actually makes fun of me. "So this is not something that I was going to just start doing myself. 'But once I moved here, I had a friend who started working at Sheri's, and she actually had a really good time there. 'And so I was like, okay I'm going to give it a try. "I also do porn, and I was only planning to do it once as an opportunity for my fans to come meet me, but I ended up enjoying being there so much and enjoying the staff so much that now I'm there every month." 'DOUBLE PORN STAR EXPERIENCE' Rayne also cleared up the "common misconception" that prostitution is legal in Las Vegas. 'In order for a county in Nevada to have legal brothels, it has to be in a county below a certain population threshold, and then also it has to be done at a licensed brothel," she said. 'So I couldn't just meet a client in my county and go to see them at their hotel or something, that would still be illegal. "They have to come to you, not the other way around.' She continued: 'One thing that's actually a great example of what's happening right now: a really good friend of mine, her name is Summer Hart, she is also a porn star. 'She is a more famous porn star than I am, but we've been really good friends for years. From me being like, 'oh my God, I love working there, it's so great', she finally was like, okay I want to try it. 'So she is coming for her first time in just a couple of weeks, and we'll be there at the same time. We have been actively marketing a double porn star experience. 'Sometimes other ladies will get together too when they have common interests or there's something about them, like I have a friend who is a redhead and is planning to put together some packages with another redhead for a double redhead experience. "There's a lady that I love booking toy parties with.' Duff began working at the venue in 2006 following a chance tour she took there when she visited with her mother-in-law for lunch. She was pulled to one side and was offered a job she has held ever since. Rayne says she has seen endless eye-opening requests from customers since she started working there. And she says her wife is 'fully supportive' of what she does for a living. Rayne added: "Some things that I do are pretty interesting, things that people don't necessarily think about. I never in a million years thought I'd be a porn star. It was just like a bucket list thing 'I have a client who comes to see me who likes to try on my skirts, but what's interesting about him is all of the rest of the sex is very vanilla and normal. 'I love when guys bring me their wives and they really just want to watch while I play with their wives. Those are some of my favourite appointments." She added: 'I never in a million years thought I'd be a porn star. It was just like a bucket list thing. 'I started stripping to pay for college. I absolutely loved stripping. I finished my degree, and I started going to work with my degree but I was still dancing on the side. 'And then in 2019, I had 3 surgeries, and I was diagnosed with a chronic illness, and so I racked up $10,000 in medical debt, and I was back in the strip club for one week in March of 2020 when all of the strip clubs closed. 'So I hopped on the OnlyFans train at that time like everyone else did. 'Then in March of 2021, I quit my day job to do adult work full time. In October 2021, I moved from Chicago to Las Vegas for my job.' She added: 'My wife is super supportive. In fact, on my first trip to Sheri's, she drove me and she helped me bring in my suitcases.' With its unique luxury packages and 100 licensed sex workers on rotation, the popularity of Sheri's Ranch shows few signs of slowing.

‘I need justice,' mother of Pahrump shooting victim begs 3 suspects to turn themselves in after shooting at park
LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — The Nye County Sheriff's Office is still searching for three teenage suspects in a deadly shooting that happened Saturday in a Pahrump park during a community movie event. The shooting victim, identified as 22-year-old Joey Perry, suffered four gunshot wounds, three to his back and one to his neck, Sheriff Joe McGill said during a news conference Monday morning, where the sheriff's office made a public plea to help find the suspects. Perry's family members attended. 'I'm Joey's mom,' Mari Eusiello said. 'I'm lost and torn. My heart is shattered.' Pahrump is about 60 miles west of Las Vegas. The shooting occurred in Ian Deutch Memorial Park around 10 p.m. on July 5. McGill said officers responded to a fight involving around 50 teens, four of whom were in the actual fight. The rest were watching or cheering it on. McGill said the fight was stopped, and the officers left. Ten minutes later, the deadly shooting occurred. A woman who saw the fight and subsequent shooting contacted police and told them what she saw as the suspects left in a red vehicle, later identified as a Chevy Camaro. 'She then heard what she described as automatic gunfire and the vehicle left at a high rate of speed,' McGill said. McGill identified the suspects, including the juvenile due to the seriousness of the crime, as: Carlos Blakely, 18, Anthony Aguilar, 17, and Fabian Ferrante, 19, another person initially identified as a suspect, Brandon Port, 18, turned himself in to police and is no longer considered a suspect in the case. The suspects are facing charges of murder, conspiracy, and possession of an altered firearm, McGill said. 'This witness knows that Blakely commonly carries firearms to include a fully automatic Glock handgun.' 'We are not sure what started the fight in the first place or if the fight is even involved in the shooting,' McGill said. Officers are also investigating other incidents that may have occurred at the park. McGill did not elaborate but did say he received information Monday morning 'that there was a comment made that a green light was put on Joey. For what reason, I don't know.' A 'green light' is street slang for giving the go-ahead to commit a crime. 'I need justice for my baby. Please turn yourselves in. Be brave and face the consequences,' Eusiello pleaded. McGill is urging anyone who has information or video, or photos of the gathering, fight, or shooting at the Ian Deutch Memorial Park on Saturday night to email: sheriff@ or to call (775) 751-7000 (5), or to contact Crimestoppers at (702) 385-5555.

Nevada commission to decide Michele Fiore's fate as Pahrump judge
LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — Pahrump judge and former Las Vegas City Councilwoman Michele Fiore was awaiting a commission's decision Friday on whether or not she could return to her courtroom after receiving a presidential pardon. Last month, President Donald Trump pardoned Fiore, a Nye County Justice of the Peace, after a jury convicted her of taking money meant for fallen police officers' memorials and spending it on herself. The jury deliberated for two hours, convicting her on one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and six counts of wire fraud. Following Fiore's federal indictment last July, the Nevada Commission on Judicial Discipline suspended her from office with pay amid the proceedings. The commission later suspended her without pay after her conviction. Trump pardoned Fiore on April 23. First elected as a Republican Nevada assemblywoman in 2012, Fiore later served as Las Vegas mayor pro tem and unsuccessfully ran for governor and treasurer as a Republican. Nye County Commissioners appointed her to her judgeship in late 2022. Last June, before her indictment, voters re-elected Fiore, who is not an attorney, to that position. Fiore and her attorney, Paola Armeni, appeared on Zoom before the commission Friday to ask the panel to remove her suspension order. 'When does this end?' Armeni said, adding the commission only has jurisdiction over a judge's actions as a sitting judge. 'The commission can no longer issue, rescind, and reinstate based on this conviction, based on the pardon. There is nothing before this commission about her conduct as a judge, nothing.' Fiore did not speak during the meeting. The commission's deliberations were private and not shown on the Zoom live stream. After Trump issued her pardon, Fiore promised a return to the bench on Monday, April 28, in the immediate aftermath of the presidential pardon. That Monday, she did not appear, telling the 8 News Now Investigators, who attended court that morning in Pahrump, that she would return to the bench 'once the procedural formalities are concluded.' 'On Monday, I will walk back into my courtroom as the elected justice of the peace — not because man permitted it, but because God ordained it,' Fiore originally said in a statement announcing her pardon. On June 8, 2014, Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department officers Alyn Beck and Igor Soldo were gunned down while they were on their lunch break in northeast Las Vegas. Fiore claimed to raise money for statues for the fallen officers, and some of the high-profile citizens from whom she collected donations were Republican Nevada Gov. Joe Lombardo and the union boss Tommy White, both of whom testified at trial. During the trial, Lombardo said he was a victim. He has not commented publicly on the pardon. 'The only way my full story will ever be told is if I write it myself,' she said in late April, criticizing the media coverage. Fiore has alleged investigations into her began following her support for rancher Cliven Bundy and the armed standoff he had with the government in 2014. In court documents filed last year, she claimed the government had labeled her as a 'domestic terrorist.' Fiore could face state charges should the attorney general or the district attorney decide to move forward. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
