Your 5 best bets for entertainment in the week ahead

Mariah Carey

Basically, this is just a hobby. Mariah Carey probably put a little money away over the years, but now she's engaged to Australian billionaire James Packer (son of one of Las Vegas' favorite gamblers) and described her 35-carat diamond ring as "a nice chunk." So watch her sing, just for fun, all her No. 1 hits at 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday in the Colosseum at Caesars Palace. Tickets are $55 to $250; call 877- 427-7243.

Jennifer Lopez

It's Super Bowl weekend and we find Mariah Carey on one side of the Strip and Jennifer Lopez on the other? Are we gender-typing to wonder what happened to all the guy stuff? Artie Lange, George Strait, Joe Rogan and a UFC card we care about? Call this one the Super Bowl of Sequins. Those on Team J-Lo convene at Planet Hollywood at 9 p.m. Friday and Saturday. Tickets are $59 to $219; call 855-234-7469.

Lil Wayne

If it's Lil Wayne co-starring with President George Washington, it must be a Super Bowl ad (for apartments.com). But you can see Lil Wayne live Saturday with the formidable team of Method Man and Redman in a big-game weekend party at the new Foundry club inside the SLS Las Vegas. As far as we know, sizzurp is not on the cocktail menu. Tickets are $30 to $40; call 702-761-7617.

Bob Levy and Mick Foley

"The Reverend" Bob Levy may be one of the most familiar voices in comedy, thanks to his frequent-guest status with Howard Stern and Opie & Anthony over the years. Levy is also a former wrestler, which is why it makes sense to see him teamed with WWE legend Mick Foley at 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday at the South Point. Tickets are $20 to $30; call 702-797-8055.

Blood, Sweat & Tears featuring Bo Bice

If you're going to lose "American Idol," makes sense to lose to Carrie Underwood, right? As Adam Lambert did with Queen, Bo Bice now teams up with pioneering jazz-rockers Blood, Sweat & Tears, at 8 p.m. Friday at the Golden Nugget. Tickets are $36.56 to $112.86; call 866-946-5336.
