Strippers

Stormy Daniels should never have been arrested at a Columbus strip club and the Chief of Police is launching an investigation to determine if the officers' motives were improper.

Chief Kim Jacobs says she will take the heat for the arrest at Sirens strip club ... where Stormy was busted for touching an undercover vice officer during her performance. As TMZ reported, the arrest was bogus because the law only prohibits touching by dancers who perform regularly at a club, and Stormy was a featured guest for only 2 nights.

Chief Jacobs noted a mistake was made, though she was not specific. She went on to say, "While the presence of Vice officers at this establishment is reasonable, the motivations behind the officers' actions will be reviewed internally ..."

5:00 PM PT -- Stormy won't be skipping out on a strip club appearance tonight after all ... she just said she's taking her talents to Vanity Gentlemen's Club in Columbus. She added that the owners of Sirens were "too fearful" to have her back.

Stormy Daniels just bailed from night 2 at the Columbus strip club where she was arrested Wednesday night, and her lawyer says there are various reasons why ... including "security concerns."

Michael Avenatti tells TMZ there were a variety of reasons why his client will not return to Sirens. He would not say if Stormy received death threats, but acknowledged there were safety issues.

Avenatti says Stormy wants to perform tonight and is looking for another venue in Columbus.

Michael Avenatti believes the police in Columbus, Ohio were well aware they had no grounds to arrest Stormy Daniels, but went ahead and did it anyway.

We spoke to Stormy's lawyer shortly after her strip club bust charges were dismissed Thursday. He said it's "ironic" the statute that vindicates her (because she's not a regular dancer at the establishment) is pretty crystal clear ... yet cops couldn't figure it out.

Translation: Columbus police knew what they were doing and targeted Stormy to put her in cuffs ... Avenatti just doesn't know what their motive was ... not yet, anyway.

Stormy's lawyer says they're going to get to the bottom of it, and are exploring her legal options.

Stormy Daniels can chalk this one up as a quickie -- the charges from her Columbus, Ohio strip club arrest have already been dropped.

Prosecutors say the "touching" statute only applies to strippers who "regularly appear" at the establishment. Stormy was merely a featured guest dancer, so she's in the clear.

As we reported ... Stormy was arrested Wednesday night after motorboating an undercover police officer while performing at Sirens. According to police docs, Stormy put both hands on Officer Mary Praither's butt and breasts, and then put her breasts in the officer's face.

A judge has already signed off on the dismissal of charges.

Stormy's lawyer, Michael Avenatti, said the incident reeked of a sting operation. TMZ broke the story ... sources connected with the club tell us the undercover officers waited in the back of the club for Stormy to take the stage, appearing as if they were gunning for her.

However, police say they were there investigating complaints of alleged prostitution and drug activity. They say two other strippers, who were also arrested, were the first offenders -- with one of them motorboating and groping Officer Praither.

They say Stormy's touchy-feely performance came later -- around 11:30 PM -- and she actually motorboated all 3 undercover cops, not just Praither. After Stormy's performance, she and the other 2 were arrested at the same time.

Stormy Daniels is now in the crosshairs of Columbus, Ohio prosecutors ... and our sources say the cops were gunning for her.

A source connected with the club where Stormy performed tells TMZ, the undercover vice officers waited in the back of the club for Stormy to take the stage, and it looked clear to her they were gunning for Trump's nemesis.

That said, we have reviewed court records and found that cops have amped up enforcement of the law this year. The law -- which prohibits nude or semi-nude strippers from allowing patrons to touch them -- was passed in 2007. Up until 2017, there were a total of 21 arrests. In 2018, Stormy is the 23rd stripper to be arrested under the law, so it's clear cops are cracking down.

Two other strippers at the club were arrested along with Stormy.

Stormy Daniels was arrested Wednesday night over an incident at a strip club, and it sounds like she got nailed in an undercover operation.

Stormy was performing at Sirens ... a Columbus, Ohio strip club. She was arrested for allowing a patron to touch her in violation of Ohio law. According to the law, only family members can touch a nude or semi-nude dancer.

That patron was actually Columbus PD's Officer Mary Prather. According to police docs, Stormy put both hands on Officer Prather's butt and breasts ... and then put her breasts in the cop's face.

In other words ... Stormy was done in by motorboating.

She was booked and released early Thursday morning on a $6,000 bond.

Her lawyer, Michael Avenatti, concedes the patrons did indeed touch his client but he describes it as a "non-sexual way."

Avenatti went on ... "This was a complete setup ... it's absurd that law enforcement resources are being spent to conduct a sting operation." He went on to allege it was a politically motivated arrest.

That's all folks -- famed porn star Mary Carey is off the pole and off the cheesy faux leather couch, after tying the knot with her new doctor husband.

Carey got hitched to Dr. Joseph Brownfield, an ER doc, Wednesday at the Bev Hills Courthouse. Last time we saw her, she told our camera guy ... once she put on her wedding band, she wouldn't be taking off her clothes for anyone but for the good doc. So, all porn and strip club gigs are off the table now.

As of May, Carey was still hitched to her previous husband, electrician Mario Monge. She asked the judge to finalize that divorce ASAP, so she and Brownfield could move forward with their nuptials.

Undecided on a career path? Adrien Broner might persuade you to become a stripper in just 2 mins!

The boxing star busted out STACKS AND STACKS of $100 bills at the Gentleman's Club: The Office in Miami on Thursday ... and just eyeballing it, seems like he's got between $50k and $100k!

Dude went absolutely BONKERS with the cash -- throwing so much money, he might be up there with the all time celebrity big spenders -- see here, here, here .... and here.

Broner has the biggest grin on his face as the guy recording him begs AB to take it easy with the money ... and of course, he keeps going.

Stormy Daniels is famous for taking off her underwear -- on camera and with Donald Trump, allegedly -- but now she's using her Trump-fueled fame to get women INTO lingerie ... for a price.

Stormy's launching her own line of intimates with designer Helen Hoey. They'll be sold at PULCHRA in Beverly Hills, which should already give you a hint they'll be high-end. We're told pieces in the collection will cost over $100 a pop.

The line is being described as "edgy and sophisticated with vintage aesthetics." Not sure what all that means, but seems like a lot of words for items that won't be on for very long.

Stormy will slip into the goods, first -- she's set to model in the lingerie campaign.

Welterweight champion Errol Spence absolutely brutalized a man on Saturday night and the happiest guy in the world about it was Adrien Broner ... who turned ALL THE WAY UP after the win.

Spence KO'd Carlos Ocampo in Dallas on Saturday ... and Sunday night he and Broner hit the hottest strip club in Texas -- V Live Dallas -- and kept the party going.

Errol was chillin' ... but not Adrien, who celebrated like it was his KO, even taking the stage to hit the shoot dance one time, which we're sure all the dancers trying to make nail school tuition appreciated.

One thing's for sure ... Stormy Daniels knows where her bread's buttered ... and soaked in baby oil, apparently -- 'cause she raked in big money in a New Orleans strip club Wednesday night.

Stormy was spraying herself down, and spitting up a mysterious white liquid, while shaking her money makers at NOLA's Penthouse Club. Besides the baby oil, she got showered in a lotta green ... as patrons showed their appreciation for her umm ... art.

President Trump's nemesis did an America-heavy set ... stripping, grinding and gyrating to "American Woman," "American Girl" and "Every Rose Has Its Thorn." Not-so-hidden messages to 45, ya think?

She reportedly charged fans $20 for a photo, and another $20 per autograph.

5/5 10:30 AM PT -- Stormy's assistant Michaela Catando tells TMZ the "Team Stormy" merch is being sold on Stormy's online store. She adds, while she's no longer full-time with Stormy, the two still do business together.

Stormy Daniels is about to give Donald Trump a run for his money when it comes to slapping slogans on merch.

Stormy's assistant, Michaela Catando, submitted an application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office last month to have "Team Stormy" stamped on shorts, sweatshirts, t-shirts, tank tops and underwear. Surprisingly, hats weren't part of the mix.

It's not the most original slogan, but here's what's interesting ... Michaela's Facebook page says she doesn't work for Stormy anymore. When we phoned Stormy's camp to see if Michaela was still on the payroll, they had no comment.

Boxing star Tevin Farmer is getting into another business where people perform shirtless in front of mostly male fans ... by opening up a strip club in his native Philadelphia.

Farmer is one of the most exciting young stars in the sport ... and when he talked to TMZ Sports he said opening the club was just something that kinda fell in his lap (pun intended).

"It's an opportunity that presented itself and I took advantage of it" ... adding, "It's lot of money to be made and I got to go get it."

The club is called Teasers and Tevin says there's definitely a type of lady he wants twerking and working in his establishment -- and a type of woman he definitely DOESN'T want.

"We want classy women. We don't want no ratchets."

Auditions were held this past week and Tevin was so kind as to give us a peek at the festivities.

You're welcome.

Who says you can't have your cakes and eat (chicken), too?

That's what Teyana Taylor did at V Live Dallas -- where she enjoyed a stripperific lap dance while chowing down on some delicious chicken.

Oh, and it was all going down with the G.O.O.D Music singer waving around a fat stack of cash to throw at the dancers!

Our strip club sources tell us Teyana dropped $4,500 during her visit before deciding to call it a night ... at 8 AM!!

Demi Lovato and Bella Thorne's policy for girls' night out is, apparently, the more the merrier ... especially if the more includes chicks on stripper poles.

Demi, Bella and a group of gal pals hit up Crazy Girls Strip Club Wednesday night in Hollywood. Not sure who their friends were, but the evening had all the markings of someone's bachelorette party ... or maybe just a wild birthday.

No dudes in their party ... although, we're sure they drew plenty of male attention inside the club. Afterward, they all piled into a limo to keep the party moving.

Stormy Daniels is flaunting her multitasking, and that's not a euphemism -- she was busy stripping in Detroit Tuesday night, while still keeping the pressure on President Trump.

The porn star did 3 shows at Truth Gentlemen’s Club in the D. These pics are from the early show at 8 PM ... which might explain the thin crowd. The club was expecting a capacity crowd of 800, but no dice.

Can't knock Stormy's hustle though -- she made the appearance smack in the heat of her battle with Donald Trump and his attorney, Michael Cohen. Days after going to court in NYC, and unveiling the infamous sketch of the guy who allegedly threatened her ... there she was shaking her real moneymaker.

If the Trump suit doesn't work out ... girl's gotta make a buck.
