Celebrity Justice
Burglars Hit Kelly Monaco's Vegas Penthouse

Kelly MonacoKelly Monaco narrowly escaped a run-in with a burglar who broke into her Las Vegas penthouse early Thursday morning -- by hiding behind her bed while it all went down.

Sources tell TMZ Monaco was asleep in her penthouse at the Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas around 4:00 AM when she heard an intruder banging around inside the living room. We're told Kelly hid behind her bed -- but the bad guy never tried to get into the bedroom.

When the coast was clear, Kelly emerged from her room, saw that her place was trashed, and called police.

Las Vegas P.D. confirms to TMZ a burglary report was filed, but would not confirm what was stolen.

We're told Monaco is now using a personal security team -- and plans on keeping the bodyguards around as long as she's in Vegas ... which could be a while. She's currently starring in "Peepshow" at Planet Hollywood with Mel B.

Planet Hollywood had no comment.

16. Glad she is safe but one would think there is better security at such a pricey location.

19. Why do you guys always use the worst pictures of people? Kelly is a beutiful girl, why did you have to use this photo? I am glad that she is ok and was not harmed.

23. A buglar? No wonder she woke up. He was playing a trumpet in her living room at 4am. I was always smarter than that.

24. 9. I know, it's performing. I'm a dumb f@#$ idiot, moron and retard.There, saved all you spelling police the trouble. My English teacher used to warn me about partying all night vs studying, but it was so worth it!

It's great that you corrected the performing spelling error. How about your name now? 'THEY'RE all going to laugh at you' would be correct. THERE is not.

28. Another one of those celebrity tales where a whole bunch is missing in between the PR release and the truth.

29. Wow, that must have been really scary. How did that guy get in???

30. Glad she is safe. At least she'll get publicity out of it. I believe Kelly won the first Dancing with the Stars, even though she was not the best, she did manage to show her crotch in almost every dance. That's probably where crotch lady got the experience to appear in Peepshow" in vegas.
