From Beverly Hills To The Strip: Brian Austin Green & Tori Spelling Host '90s Party At Voltaire

A dance party at the famed Peach Pit in Beverly Hills – but make it in Vegas. 

Voltaire at The Venetian Resort Las Vegas is turning back the clock for one night with its high-energy "'90s After Dark Party" on Dec. 28, hosted by “Beverly Hills, 90210” icons Brian Austin Green and Tori Spelling. The celebration will transform the intimate venue into a nostalgia-filled throwback to the decade that helped to define pop culture. And to make the night feel even more like the '90s, the Backstreet Boys are performing at the Sphere ahead of the party at Voltaire, so you can make an entire night of it. 

The night features a DJ spinning the greatest hits of the ’90s, surprise moments, and a special performance by fellow “90210” alums and R&B group Color Me Badd. Whether you’re going to see Backstreet Boys and then heading to Voltaire or just going to Voltaire, Vegas is the place to be to bring some '90s nostalgic back this weekend. 

Brian Austin Green had some time to chat with The Blast about the special event and everything “90210" ahead of the exciting trip back to the '90s in Sin City.

Take A Trip Back In Time To Enjoy '90s Nostalgia In Vegas This Weekend With Brian Austin Green & Tori Spelling

Voltaire, located inside The Venetian Resort Las Vegas, will be transforming into something straight out of Beverly Hills in the '90s on Sunday, Dec. 28. Think Peach Pit After Dark, but Vegas-style.

"You can expect a little fun trip back to the decade when our show existed," Green told The Blast exclusively. "It's all '90s music that we're playing. Color Me Badd is performing, which is pretty cool. It's following the Backstreet Boys show at the Sphere, so it's like for people who are traveling into town to see that and to kind of re-experience and relive it, you don't have to then go back to your hotel, you can come to Voltaire inside The Venetian, literally right outside of Sphere, so it's an easy thing to walk to. You can make a fun night of it."

Green said that the event is all about nostalgia. It's an absolute must if you always wanted to hang out at the Peach Pit After Dark in the '90s while watching "Beverly Hills, 90210."

"We really wanted to make something that was nostalgia that made people from that decade look at it and go, I always wanted to hang out at the Peach Pit After Dark. That would have been really fun," he continued. "So now the idea is that we recreate the fun of it. And we want to do more of these things and we want to have surprise performances, we want to have surprise guests, and we really want to make something that feels like that."

While reminiscing about the iconic decade, Green said it was "one of the better decades" with "so much culture, fashion, and music."

It's David And Donna's 25th Wedding Anniversary!

Not only is the dance party going to bring back those '90s feels, but it's also going to make many of us OG "90210" fans feel a bit old.

"It's the 25th wedding anniversary of David and Donna. So, it's their silver wedding anniversary," Green said. "They are the Silvers. So, we've been doing a lot of stuff already together just because David and Donna were this iconic couple that people sort of strive to be. We're celebrating what would be the character's 25th wedding anniversary." 

Something that many fans may not know is that Green and Spelling didn't speak for nearly 18 years after the show wrapped.

"We've sort of talked about it and we don't completely understand how it happened or why, but we've honestly buried the hatchet on it and we're like, listen, never again will it happen because I love her to death and I hope the feeling is mutual," he shared with The Blast.

He continued by saying that he was 27 years old when they shot the wedding episode (so now we all feel old!) and it's been fun "remaking the relationship that we always had, because you forget sometimes those connections, those bonds that you had with people when you were younger."

"And it's one of those things where we can just look at each other and I know what she's thinking and she knows what I'm thinking," he said. "So it's a cool relationship and it's not something that I will honestly have with many other people."

Brian Austin Green Takes A Trip Down Memory Lane To The Early Days Of '90210'

Let's take it back to the early days of "Beverly Hills, 90210."

The iconic teen drama helped to define '90s pop culture when it debuted in late 1990. The show followed a group of friends navigating high school and early adulthood in the privileged world of Beverly Hills. The show became a cultural phenomenon that helped to influence fashion, music, and teen TV. But what many may not realize is the popularity of the show didn't take off immediately. Once it did, it never slowed down.

"At that time in television, people weren't watching numbers the same way and calculating and making steps based on that. Fox was this really small fledgling network that was, for all intents and purposes, it was a cable network at that point, which is why we kind of got the shot that we got, because nobody watched the show for a while," Green said. "It was just a pilot. I'd shot a dozen or so pilots before then, so it was just one of many. So did the pilot, and that was kind of like, okay, cool, nice working with all of you, maybe see you again on some other job. And then because Fox was what it was, they picked us up for the first 13 episodes. We didn't really have any success, but Fox didn't have anything to fill that time slot with."

The show then got picked up for the back nine episodes and came up with the idea with Aaron Spelling of having summer episodes, which was something other shows didn't typically have.

"It went from nobody watching to everybody watching within like a week and a half period of time," Green said. "It was a massive success overnight, but it wasn't that way from the beginning. It took us seven months for that to happen."

Sharing More About Filming '90210'

When asked if any fond memories stick out in his mind from filming the show, Green said there were so many during its 10-year run.

"What sticks out to me was all the family time around the show. We shot the show in Van Nuys, which there's literally nothing in the city of Van Nuys," Green shared. "We were in warehouse spaces that Aaron Spelling had purchased and converted into studio spaces. It's like sound stages."

One shocking fact that many may not realize, other than it being filmed in warehouse spaces, was the "robust block" that they were on. Next door, they were manufacturing porn, and on the other side, workout equipment. And because they weren't on a typical studio lot with other shows, the cast didn't immediately realize just how big the show was.

"Because we weren't on a studio lot, we didn't have a sense of how big it is what we were doing. We would work and then would spend time in each other's dressing rooms, and we would all hang out and you'd hang out with the crew and all of that and then go home and had your own life," he continued. "It was the weekends that reminded you of how big the show was because then you couldn't go anywhere, you couldn't travel or do anything outside of home but during the week it's not like we were on the back lot where you'd walk around see other people and they'd go, 'Hey, your show's awesome' and you would be reminded of that every day, so I think that honestly that led to the uniqueness of the show and the relationships that we have with each other."

Spending 10 years together on set made them all family. They went through highs and lows together, fought and made up, and experienced all different things in life together.

Some Rapid-Fire Fun With Brian Austin Green

Of course, we had to have some fun with Green before letting him go back to planning his Vegas visit and '90s party at Voltaire.

TB: If you could bring one trend back from the '90s, and leave one in the '90s, what would they be?

Green: I would leave the fashion in the '90s but I would bring the music and culture back.

TB: If the party at Voltaire was an episode of "90210," what would the episode be called?

Green: "Blast to the past."

TB: Who broke character on set the most?

Green: Our characters were so intertwined with us, and it wasn't a sitcom, so we didn't have those moments where you broke character and then got to laugh and go back into it.

TB: If TikTok existed back then, which character would have been the best content creator?

Green: Donna (said without hesitation)

TB: Is there a specific '90s song that when you hear it, it instantly brings you back to set?

Green: Tribe Called Quest, "Midnight Marauders" album. That was the one for me, almost through the entire decade that was the one that I always went back to. It was a perfect album for me.

TB: Is there anything we didn't talk about that you want to before we conclude?

Green: We didn't talk about how my fashion sense has changed, which is hurtful (he said with a giggle). Not the fit. That's the thing. Like, the fashion, there are some patterns and some things you look back on and you go, that's kind of cool. Nothing fit. Things were horribly cut and done on people, so I think, you watch the show back and go, pattern's great, material's great, that shirt he's wearing is like a washing machine box top.
