clubs in cali where black and latino girls make $$$
I am a 20 year old woman who is black and brazilian, I want to start up dancing but I am not sure where a mixed race young woman such as myself can make great money? I have heard alot of bad things about the upscale clubs, I hear that the girls of color don't really make any money! I think that is true, I worked at spearmint rhino for 2 days and hated it! the guys were not mean to me and I did make some money, but it wasn't great money. I made like 250, after they took there cut the first night. All the girl were nice to me, I will give them that but they did say that the black girls and latino girls that looked more exotic didn't last very long.
I live close to pasadena but I don't want to work in the san gabriel valley or in san bernedino, because I don't want to work close to where I live or run the risk of being seen by people that I know! If anyone one know of any places please let me know! Also I was thinking about working at godfathers in canoga park, does anyone know anything about that place? let me know that too!!! ;)

Black and latino girls do well in City of Industry. However, contact level is pretty high up there. Also, times are slow and a lot of girls of any race are making less than 200 a shift right now. You said you would rather not work in that area but if you change your mind you would do well there. If you have a nice booty and you're a good hustler its a plus.
Re: clubs in cali where black and latino girls make $$$
yeah I know all about the city of industry, I don't stay that far from there. Plus every guy I know goes to the strip clubs there too! I really want my dancing to be something that is very down low. It is not that I am embaressed, it is just that my biz isn't everyones. But also just to let the girls know that in industry alot of the girls do extra.

First off, go do a search on the board about ethnic girls and dancing. That should asettle any fears you may have. Second, don't let anyone tell you anything about how other ethnic girls do, they are just trying to scare you off. Dancers will tell you that you won't make money because they are afraid of you taking money from them regardless if you're white, black, green or plaid. Men are men and very few won't like you because of your color. I am mixed as well and always do well in "white" clubs (the "black" clubs won't take me, to hell with them anyway). All but two of my custies are white and I do just as well as the white girls if not better.
You have a great shape and you're beautiful. Go on ZBone.com and check the clubs out there. I would suggest Spearmint Rhino in Van Nuys. Feel free to PM me if you like and I'll meet you if you want.

Hardly anyone is making big money in SoCal, regardless of race. $250 a night is decent here.
Re: clubs in cali where black and latino girls make $$$
It's hard..I'm black myself..but what can ya do!? I just try out different clubs and see how successful I am in them.. If not, I move on.. It sucks at times, but oh well, that's life.
I was turned down at one particular club in OC because supposedly (from people who work there) they don't hire BLACKS nor Latin girls period. End of discussion.. It was quite interesting how that worked because as soon as my friend and I arrived at the door to apply, the bouncer who was like from the middle east, was speaking in another language, and when the manager came out..he was pretty straight forwarded and asked if we had licenses.. though at that time, we never danced before so we didn't know what he was talking about..he said to come back when we get one.. months later.. I heard from other dancers that there is only whites and a few asians that worked at the club only and some not have licenses at all..so who knows.. I just went home and called in other clubs..
Sometimes I would think or wonder if... It's not that they don't think that different races is not beautiful, it is because the management is trying to make their money in that particular area and it's nothing but white people in that city anyways!
So what did I do!? I went to a well known club about 20 min away from it and actually closer to my house..got hired and luv it there.. though it's still more white men, it's diverse at night.. sometimes I still feel weird at times at work but usually I have a smile on my face when I go home! sooo haha it's great.. if they don't want to dance, I just say "Well..have a good time"..
that's the customers lost if they don't like you and that's the club BIGGEST lost (as i would say!) if they didnt bother to want to hire someone or wutever! :)
I just try to have a positive attitude, but it sucks at times because the club I first went to is set up to attract people because it's on the side of a busy freeway! eek.. who cares haha

Damn straight. It's been rough for everybody.
I don't think your race matters at all. Every club I have been to had Latina dancers (it's extremely normal because of the mix of races in LA population) as well as some black girls. I've had a harder time being white than I would have imagined. There are a lot of Mexican customers in this area and it's hard for white girls to get them to buy dances (unless you have a big ass) - even communication is difficult. If you know some Spanish, you can dance anywhere and do pretty well, I would think.
If you are near Pasadena, you should try Pleasures. I hear from some girls that it's a decent club (topless) and the dances are minimal contact.
The higher end clubs are definitely not prejudiced - they just like their girls to look similar to Victoria's Secret models with little or no tattoos. That, and the tipouts are absolutely outrageous. It's hard to part with half of your money every night, even if you're making more than you would at a topless or bikini bar.
Re: clubs in cali where black and latino girls make $$$
Don't listen to what other girls say. There is no club where blacks and hispanics do well as a whole. Some blacks and hispanics just like some white girls do better than others.
Some customers will like you and some won't anywhere you go. And the places with LESS women of color many times are best for women of color who are articulate good saleswomen and personable.
I would stay where you are. $250 after tips outs is GOOD.
