Thursday night was also a big night for David Cassidy. The former teen idol and co-star Sheena Easton held the grand opening performance of their new show at the Rio, "At the Copa."
A "love story" in which the pair get a chance to showcase some of their big hits -- including a crowd-pleasing rendition of "I Think I Love You" from Cassidy's "Partridge Family" days -- the show was a mixture of Bob Fosse-type stylings, musical numbers and a rousing 19-piece orchestra.
One of the guests at Thursday's performance was actor Andrew Kavovit, 26, who played Cassidy in a recent TV movie chronicling the singer's tumultuous career.
Although there have been rumors over the past couple of weeks concerning backstage dueling egos between Easton and Cassidy, the show went off without a hitch.
