Renowned Casino Brings in Fashion Phenom

(Calgary, AB, Canada) - may 28th, 2009 - The mega million dollar Calgary Stampede Casino has joined forces with fashion phenom Bian Variani to energize their entertainment endeavours and to be the new frontman for a series of incredible upcoming events.

Known throughout the fashion world for creating exciting and outrageous stage shows, Variani has been lured to Calgary from Vancouver to ignite Stampede's events calendar. Known for his artistic vision and a flair for the dramatic, Variani has recently revitalized Vancouver's fashion scene and staged breathtaking fashion events throughout all of North America.

Bian Variani is famous for his dramatic entrances and spectacular openings, having burst on to the stages at his shows atop racing motorcycles or even by skydiving. Variani explains, "Our shows are theme-related; it's more entertaining that way." His productions are always intensely energetic and filled with elements of pop culture such as hot dance-club tracks, live acts, and professional dancers. This ostentatious approach is a natural fit with the image of Stampede Casino and the joining of forces by these entertainment giants is guaranteed to generate an intense amount of excitement and critical acclaim.

After rocking the United States with his unique brand of enthusiasm and marketing expertise, Variani lived in Vancouver for several years, bringing Canada's former haven of fashion and nightlife back to life. "Vancouver used to be recognized for its nightlife, as a hot spot for fashion and entertainment," Variani states. "I wanted to come back out here and put a wardrobe of personality and character back into our city."

Being surrounded with glitz and glamour doesn't faze Variani; in fact, he calmly states, "I feed off of the energy that the bright lights bring. I love the challenge of taking people higher than they ever imagined they could go." With his penchant for thrilling the masses, there is no limit to his potential contributions for Stampede Casino's upcoming events: concerts, runway fashion shows, modeling and talent contests, world-famous celebrity appearances, UFC fights, and even a TV reality show with a fashion theme. These and many more exciting events are scheduled and will be produced under the direction of Variani, the self-proclaimed "fashionista of Canada".
