Celebrity hotspot Sheri's Ranch has strict protocols - particularly with some of the pricier experiences costing eye-watering six-figure sums.

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'.

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.

Song of the summer 2025: writers pick their tracks of the season
Summer is for out-of-office email bounce backs, smashing your laptop shut at 4pm and putting it off until tomorrow. This year, no song represents the simple thrill of shrugging it off better than Addison Rae's Headphones On. With a detached, lobotomy-chic delivery that's drawn comparisons to Y2K-era Madonna, the TikTok star turned serious pop scholar breezes through a list of anxieties, from her parents' relationship to the ever-present thrill of being bumped down a notch by 'the new it girl'. Ultimately, our laconic heroine swaps a panic attack for slipping those headphones on and riding it all out with a song. Clocking in at exactly four minutes, there's a straightforwardness to it all that I can't help but appreciate. Rae will make you dance without working too hard. And that's all I want right now. Alaina Demopoulos This song, sung by a six-woman international K-pop group, begins with an analysis of how malleable English slang is. 'They could describe everything with one single word, you know? / Boba tea, gnarly / Tesla, gnarly / Fried chicken, gnarly,' one member of Katseye sings, the bass thumping every time she says the most versatile descriptive word in the language, signifying intensity, both positive and negative. It's the early 2010s, and we're so back. The song is as maximalist as can be, similar to Skrillex's 2011 Bangarang or Kesha's 2010 hit TiK ToK. The music video, in which the group assembles a grotesque sandwich, calls back to 2010's Telephone, when Lady Gaga does the same. The song is fun and rowdy. It speeds forward, apt for TikTok (the app), where it first gained popularity with a distinctive, jerky dance. If you like Gnarly, I would suggest going in search of other songs by one of the song's writers, Alice Longyu Gao. Rich Bitch Juice and 100 Boyfriends feature the same mix of heavy bass and saccharine, electrified vocals and instrumentation. Blake Montgomery Since squishing a NOW! compilation's worth of ideas into three minutes on her solo single Angel of my Dreams, Jade has backed up what Little Mixologists always suspected – that she knows pop as if she has an MA in Bangers. Ahead of the release of her debut album That's Showbiz, Baby!, there's something invitingly scrappy to the way she's dovetailed from brash EDM to orgasmic disco, discarding cheap wigs and Jade-branded buttplugs in her wake. (To my mind, the only other pop act exploring genre this boldly is Sabrina Carpenter, who is something like a spiritual sibling to Jade as well as her stylistic opposite.) Plastic Box bottles a certain Scandinavian strain of sweet melancholy, with Jade playing the jilted lover over seductive electro-pop. Co-producers Grades and Oscar Görres, the latter of whom helmed most of Troye Sivan's slick Something to Give Each Other, hug her voice with rosy synths and a chorus that explodes in a cloud of confetti. It's an end of summer party that's chicer than SSENSE – and despite Jade's antics that made her so much fun to follow, Plastic Box proves that she's just as magnetic when she strips them away. Owen Myers To me, summer feels like going at terminal velocity down a waterslide: an unstoppable blur that before you know it has spat you out in the run-out pool of autumn, dazed and blinking. PinkPantheress's new 20-minute, 30-second mixtape Fancy That feels the same way, a rush of UK dance music history – heavy with samples of Basement Jaxx and Underworld and nods to Fatboy Slim and Groove Armada – guided by a flirt laying down the law in girlish RP. Illegal is the only time Pink's grip loosens, thanks to a hero dose of THC that leaves her tangled in lust, paranoia and shame. Between the reality-obliterating synth strobes, her sensory production makes you feel all the freedom and frustration of being high, close breaths and screams flickering through the slipstream. Laura Snapes There are plenty of songs of the summer about falling in love or partying or breaking up or going for a long, gorgeous drive, but there are hardly enough songs for summer lethargy. When the mercury hits 90 degrees, all my friends go insane, my technology stops working, and I start napping for at least one hour a day. Enter commie bf, a blunt buzzsaw of a song on which forty winks singer Cilia Catello yells that 'everyone and everything makes my ears ring' right before she and her bandmates unleash a maelstrom of nasty, dementedly catchy punk-pop. This is a funny, and fun, and ferocious track – loud and unruly, but so intensely catchy that even the guitar-music-averse among us would have to admire its moxy. Catello's sheer frustration rings through every second of the song, enough to shake you from that heatwave-induced stupor and get your ass back into gear, no matter how sweaty and malcontent you may be. Shaad D'Souza While pop fans fret about there not being a good enough song of the summer this year, the UK has gone ahead and anointed its choice anyway. MK's Dior is now at No 1 in the UK charts, standard behaviour for a country whose inhabitants need only the faintest hint of a 4/4 pop-dance beat on a temperate day to crack open a tinned cocktail at 11am and go 'wheeeeey' with arms stretched wide. US producer MK, AKA Marc Kinchen, has been around since the early 90s (he's behind the still-ubiquitous Push the Feeling On) and therefore brings a level of craft to bear on his productions that puts them into a different league to all other mirrored-wall nightclub fodder. 2017's 17 still shines like the white walls and high-tensile glass of an Ibizan villa; 2023's Asking is as good as build-and-drop dance gets. 2025's offering Dior is more coiled and sensual than those tracks, with a really dramatic delayed drop: silence and Chrystal's a cappella vocal fill the space where you expect the beat, creating a simple but spine-tingling effect. The high fashion references meanwhile make it a sort of sequel to 2023's equivalent dance-pop song of the summer, Cassö's Prada. Ben Beaumont-Thomas Best efforts notwithstanding, the vibes aren't great this summer. The news is terrible, the AI ominous, the culture still in an extended hangover from last year's Espresso buzz and Brat bumps. There is no obvious song of the summer – the charts are basically tracks from 2024 or Morgan Wallen (though you wouldn't know it in godless New York); Charli xcx basically headlined Glastonbury; people are too busy arguing over Sabrina Carpenter's album cover to remember her Espresso follow-up Manchild. In this muggy malaise, I've been stuck on Haim's Relationships – the LA trio's best pop song to date, a bright, deceptively airy anthem for being fucking over it. Lyrically, this lead single off the sisters' aspirationally titled fourth album I Quit describes the messy end of some ill-defined entanglement. But its spare, intoxicating production – simple piano chords, ambling bass, synths glimmering like barlights at 9pm dusk – evokes a more general, potent summer ennui. I normally want the bpm up when it's hot, but this summer, I've been circling blocks to Danielle's dreamy falsetto, ascending with her rhetorical questions – fucking relationships, don't they end up all the same? – and then crashing back to earth with her 'when there's no one else to blame'. Feelings? In this strung-out summer? Try me next year. Adrian Horton The most joyous sounding song of this summer addresses depression, numbness and the futility of it all. No Joy, by the tuneful New Zealand quartet The Beths, provides an ideal object lesson in the thrill of mixed messages in pop. The music couldn't feel more summery or light, fired by bouncy powerpop chords and chirpy backup vocals. The video, set in a candy-colored child's playroom, follows suit, with lead singer/writer Elizabeth Stokes deadpanning her way through lyrics like: 'All my pleasures, guilty / Clean slate looking filthy' and 'I feel nothing,' all while her bandmates smile with satirically exaggerated pleasure. It's impossible to keep a straight face while watching or listening to it, despite the fact that the numbness Stokes reports in her words reflects something sadly real. The lyrics chronicle her experience on the dulling SSRI drug she has used to deal with her depression. True as that may be for her, the song winds up giving the opposite feeling to the listener. When she sings 'no joy' over and over we feel nothing but – a twist that could make this the most ironic song of this summer, as well as the most irresistible. Jim Farber Welcome to sombr season. Summer '25 seems to have given us a new star, and he's Shane Boose – otherwise known by his melancholy moniker, sombr. A native of New York's bustling Lower East Side, at just 19 he has effectively launched his mainstream career with a series of chart-topping singles which flaunts the artist's emotional, guitar-propelled lyrics. Yes you read that right, the new generation has officially rediscovered actual instruments, with the teenage artist seemingly channelling alt rock acts like Arctic Monkeys and Radiohead, the latter of whom he's cited as a major influence. Songs like We Never Dated flaunt brutally honest lyrics accented by guitar-picking led it to become an instant breakout upon its late June release, which makes it a no-brainer when it comes to Song of the Summer status. Meanwhile, he's riding high on other explosive singles including Back to Friends, which recently was anointed as the most-streamed song on Spotify's global charts. Rob LeDonne Without a factory-made earworm to invade our every waking moment, the floor has opened up to a wider selection of artists this summer and, as there always should be in my opinion, a wider selection of vibes to go with it. Songs of the summer are typically characterised by the infectious perk and sweaty overwhelm of mid-afternoon sun but there's another seasonal feeling we all know, as the brightness starts to fade, that also deserves its space. Boston-born singer Khamari knows it too and in delicate downer Head in a Jar, he captures a brand of summery sadness that's also rather seductive, a deliberate dive into dark feelings that's as refreshing as an early evening breeze. It's a song about being pushed away from the centre of someone's life, forced to watch from a distance instead and, with a voice that has rightly earned comparisons to the mostly awol Frank Ocean, Khamari pierces right through. He's quietly been gaining buzz since his similarly reflective 2020 EP Eldorado and this one deserves to vault him from the outside in. Benjamin Lee You know you're in the right party if someone throws down this tune. The Chilean-German firebrand Matias Aguayo returned in May with a subversive dancefloor heater that has been building in notoriety over the subsequent months. It's sung in Spanish but translates to, Aguayo says: 'walking through the city on hot summer nights looking for the perfect dancefloor'. But it's also a mission statement, longing for 'revolutions in music and dreams in community' away from homogenisation, social media likes and solely facing the DJ booth. In the track, Aguayo remembers the freewheeling days of YouTube rips where you could hear 'raw, primitive and direct music' from, say, a Syrian wedding or Angolan teenagers dancing on the streets – references for El Internet's own jittery, restless rhythm and also his live DJ sets, where he sings and dances inside a circle in the audience, inviting onlookers to move freely with him and let loose. It's lithe, gonzo techno for sticky evenings in search of catharsis and connection. Kate Hutchinson

Star Trek star Tom Troupe dies aged 97, five days after celebrating birthday
Star Trek and Mission: Impossible star Tom Troupe has died aged 97, his family confirmed on Sunday. The actor passed away at his home in Beverly Hills, California from natural causes on July 20, just five days after his birthday. He is survived by his son Christopher Troupe, daughter-in-law Becky Coulter, granddaughter Ashley Troupe and several nieces and nephews. Tom was married to Sixteen Candles actress Carole Cook from 1964 until her death from heart failure at the age of 98 in 2023. Instead of flowers, requests for donations have been made to either the Entertainment Community Fund or the Pasadena Humane Society. The actor was born on July 15, 1928, in North Kansas City, Missouri. He moved to New York in 1948, and studied at the Herbert Berghof Studio in Manhattan in the early 1950s, after he was given a scholarship from the late Reversal of Fortune actress-and-teacher, Uta Hagen. Tom also served in the Korean War - which was fought from 1950 until 1953 - and was awarded a Bronze Star for his service. He married his first wife Sally Singer on June 5, 1955. The couple welcomed son Christopher before divorcing in 1962. After serving in the war, Tom returned to New York and made his Broadway debut as Peter van Daan in 1957's The Diary of Anne Frank, which also starred Joseph Schildkraut and Gusti Huber. The following year, he moved to Los Angeles, California, where he landed dozens of top film and TV acting jobs during the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s and 1990s. Some of his most notable acting credits included playing David Day in the Mission: Impossible TV series, as well as being cast as Lieutenant Matthew Harold in the Star Trek TV series, both in 1967. He also appeared in The Fugitive, The Wild, Wild West, Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman, Cagney and Lacey, CHiPs, Knots Landing and Murder She Wrote. On stage, Tom co-starred alongside Carole in The Lion in Winter, Fathers Day and The Gin Game. He also co-wrote a one-actor play called The Diary of a Madman. Tom also co-founded The Faculty, a Los Angeles-based acting school, alongside Charles Nelson Reilly, Lu Leonard, John Erman, and Dom DeLuise.

We were banned from entering Disneyland because of our ‘offensive' T-shirts, but our replacements were so ridiculous
GOING to Disneyland is a dream for many. But one couple was stunned when they were banned from entering the theme park because of their outfits. 3 3 The pair headed for their day of fun wearing matching couple shirts. The black T-shirt worn by the woman featured the hair of Princess Leia from Star Wars with the words 'I love you.' The shirt worn by the man was also black and featured a gun and read 'I know.' The shirts are in reference to one of the most iconic scenes of the franchise where Han Solo and Princess Leia kiss before he is dragged off by Storm Troopers. However, according to the post the T-shirt designs were deemed inappropriate for Disneyland. The poster wrote: "My friends were forced to change out of their "offensive" shirts at Disney." The pair then went to the gift shop to pick out some new T-shirts to wear for the day and what they found was shocking. "Look what they picked out as replacements in DISNEY'S GIFT SHOP!" the user continued. The picture then saw the couple hold up two shirts, one with a larger picture of Princess Leia with the words 'I love you.' The next shirt featured an image of Han Solo holding a gun with the words 'I know.' 3 Trolls branded my kids' uniforms 'inappropriate' but THEY'RE the real problem It's not the first time people have been dress-coded at Disney parks. Nicole DeLosReyes visited Disney World in Florida, and she opted for a pair of black jeans and a white knotted crop top. But as she tried to enter Epcot theme park within the Disney World complex, Nicole was told her top violated the park's dress code policy. In a viral video that's racked up over nine MILLION views, the star filmed herself hunting down the nearest gift shop for something to cover up with. She said: "Guys it happened. I got dress-coded at Disney. "I was told to leave or get a shirt. So now we're getting a shirt." According to Disneyland's website, the dress-code bans clothing with objectionable material, including obscene language or graphics, excessively torn clothing or loose fitting clothing which may drag on the ground and create a potential trip hazard, clothing which, by nature, exposes excessive portions of the skin that may be viewed as inappropriate for a family environment and clothing with multiple layers are subject to search upon entry.
