Shortly after midnight, the group made their way to XS nightclub to continue the celebration. With Courtney by his side, Mario led the group into the venue
He began grinning and was overheard saying “whoa” when he saw the LED screens flash “Happy Birthday Mario.”
Guests went wild as Mario, Courtney and friends were escorted in style down the nightclub’s signature golden staircase with 10 beautiful XS Angels flanking both sides, waiving light wands to direct them to their stage side table. As soon as they arrived, the group began taking and posing for photos.
Once they got settled, the XS Angels presented Mario with a three-tiered black and gold birthday cake. He posed for photos as confetti poured down and the XS Angels waved sparklers and signs spelling out “Mario.” Mario posted a photo of his cake presentation to his Instagram account with the caption “Things are starting to get crazy here @XSLasVegas.”
