Like J.Lo's epic All I Have residency, Cardi's show has the power to dazzle the people for years to come. Jennifer's own show ended its two-year run last fall. “Here’s a glimpse into the most precious moments from the final show of #allihave,” Jennifer wrote about her last Vegas performance. “We came! We saw! We danced again (and again...and again) a beautiful night with so many beautiful people. So much love to the family represented here. I love you guys...it takes a village and boy do we have the crew to do it.”

The completed site will feature a 360-degree DJ booth, 65 foot lux bronze sculpture and lots of pools in the indoor/outdoor space.
