Now we know why Justin Timberlake flew Southwest to Vegas -- so he could have more money to throw down on the blackjack tables once he got there!
JT was spotted at the Hard Rock's Peacock Lounge this weekend, at the casino's VIP tables. He may not fly first class -- but he sure gambles that way.

Southwest Airlines would now like to open pre-boarding to all passengers traveling with small children, anyone who needs special assistance, or any former '90s boy bander who has won six Grammys.
Even though he's worth a kazillion dollars, Justin Timberlake skipped the private jet for a low-budget Southwest Airlines flight from Burbank to Las Vegas on Friday afternoon. This is how the rich stay rich.
According to a TMZ spy who happened to be on the same flight, JT and his bodyguard were allowed to board the plane first -- but somehow the massive bodyguard got stuck in the dreaded middle seat anyway. We're told the bodyguard tried to shoo away a passenger who asked for an autograph after the flight, but Justin happily signed anyway.
Even when flying budget, Justin keeps it first class.

Southwest Airlines is in big, big trouble -- not just with the FAA, but with a band of angry cyber-geeks pissed about the half-naked bikini model on one of their airplanes.
Ever since SW put Bar Refaeli's Sports Illustrated micro-bikini clad cover shot on a Boeing 737, people have been leaving tons of scathing comments on the Southwest Airlines customer blog page, describing the plane as "a Las Vegas Strip taxi cab" and "a flying porn ad."
But Southwest is standing by their Bar-fly, telling us: "We are proud to have partnered with Sports Illustrated on this promotion," adding that the response has been "about 70% positive, 25% negative and 5% neutral."
