The Stardust was a filming location for the 1998 film "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas", in which it is portrayed as the fictional Bazooko Circus casino. Subsequent films shot at the Stardust include "The Debtors" and "Pasty Faces". The resort was also featured in commercials for Miller Lite and Aflac, during the early 2000s. A television pilot for a failed reality show, titled "So You Wanna Be an Actor", was shot at the Stardust in September 2006, becoming the last production project to shoot there.
