OCEAN'S Guys Hit VEGAS -- Only This Time For Real

(From The USA Today -- BY Kitty Bean Yancey)

THE OCEAN'S ELEVEN hunks are casting themselves in new roles -- as hoteliers.

BRAD PITT, GEORGE CLOONEY, and MATT DAMON, who starred in the 2001 movie about a VEGAS CASINO heist, are reteaming as investors in a new hotel just off THE STRIP. Their partner is RANDE GERBER, whose hip WHISKEY BARS have made him a major player in the hotel-lounge world.

Details of the new venture are still being worked out. One name under consideration -- THE RAMBLAS -- after the lively boulevard in BARCELONA.

THE NEW YORK POST said that Pitt, a design buff who is helping famed architect FRANK GEHRY on a project in ENGLAND, will have a hand in the hotel's look and style.
