Wayne: Up Close & Personal

Wayne Newton remains the definitive Mr. Las Vegas, an enduring crooner whose name even honors a thoroughfare at the city's international airport. From childhood performances alongside his brother Jerry to headlining six nightly shows in Vegas, he built a legendary career there. Over decades, he cemented his VIP status, evolving from 1960s youth singer into the debonair Mr. Entertainer of Sin City, once its highest-paid performer. With more than 30,000 live performances logged and continuing to grow, Newton has dominated Las Vegas for generations.
