The Goddess of Slots is taking over the world by land and sea.
Few names shine as brightly as Lorraine Bencivengo-Ziff in the world of casinos and social media influencers. This actress and entrepreneur transformed a single jackpot win into a blossoming career, earning her the nickname "Goddess of Slots."
As Lorraine's influence grows, so do her exciting ventures. This month, she'll resume filming a new television series called “Bloodhound,” which is based on a true story. “I’m incredibly excited to be part of Bloodhound. It’s a gripping mystery based on a real-life, unsolved heist, which makes it even more fascinating,” she said.
“This series has all the elements that drew me to it—suspense, intrigue, and a great cast and crew.”
Lorraine says Michele Kanan wrote and directed the show and that Sean Kanan, who you might know from The Karate Kid/Cobra Kai, plays the role of Special Agent Chris Stone. “Not only is he insanely talented, but he’s also such a generous actor. He brings so much energy and depth to every scene, and I’ve learned a lot just by watching him work,” Lorraine said.
The Goddess of Slots is Heading To The High Seas
Hollywood isn’t the only place she’s making waves.
Fans can join her on the "Goddess of Slots" Virgin Voyages cruise in September. “I’m so excited for this upcoming cruise! It’s going to be a blast,” she said.
This 5-night Dominican Daze adventure promises meet-and-greet opportunities, exclusive prizes, a cocktail party, and other surprises, including:
- Special Offers
- Slot Tournaments
- Specialty Restaurants
“I feel like we’re going to create some really unforgettable moments, and I can’t wait to share them all with everyone onboard,” Lorraine said.
How Did Lorraine Become The "Goddess of Slots"?
After graduating from college, Lorraine worked as an actor in movies and television. She earned a Master's Degree and became a school social worker and therapist while also investing in property and rentals.
She kept auditioning and chasing her acting dreams until one day, between acting gigs, she walked by some slot machines at a casino. She decided to play and hit a jackpot. The moment was caught on camera, and when she posted it online, it went viral.

“Becoming a social media influencer happened almost by accident. I was between acting jobs when I hit a jackpot at a casino, and we caught it on video. When we shared it on social media, it went viral, and that’s when I realized there was a whole world of casino influencers,” she said.
A friend told her about the opportunity to become a social media influencer for the casino industry. She realized she loved the spontaneity and fun of creating videos, so she chose to pursue this new career path.
“What started as a fun way to stay active between acting jobs quickly became a second full-fledged career, and I’ve embraced it ever since. In fact, one of the upcoming TV series I’m in resulted from the Goddess of Slots persona. I can’t speak much about it right now except to say it will be lots of laughs,” Lorraine said.
Powerful Collaborations Create Solid Foundation
Her journey as the Goddess of Slots led her to collaborate with premier casinos and slot manufacturers, turning heads across the gambling world.
Last year, Lorraine joined forces with George Goldhoff, the president of Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City, to launch AGS's thrilling Rakin' Bacon Sahara slot. It was also the scene of a half-million dollar Criss Cross Poker win.
She then traveled to Peppermill Reno, where she offered her followers an exclusive preview of Aristocrat Gaming's latest innovations.

Lorraine didn't stop there. Teaming up with Scott "Raja" Richter for a livestream from Hard Rock Tampa, she unveiled The Phoenix Link, another exciting game by Aristocrat. Her year culminated in a thrilling run at the prestigious Atlantis $1 Million Slot Tournament, where she showcased her skills and advanced to the semi-finals.
The Legend of This Social Media Influencer Grows
Lorraine tapped into a unique niche, becoming a powerful influencer in the casino industry.
From a viral jackpot win to carving out a name as the Goddess of Slots, Lorraine Bencivengo-Ziff continues to elevate her status in the casino world with flair and passion.

And it’s hard to argue with that.
