    Thumbs down I finally went to audition, didn't work out, ugghh!

    Ok, so finally got the balls to go audition, I went to the first club and the bouncer sent me around back to the employee entrance, told me to Buzz the door. So I sat in the car pretty nervous inside, went up to the door with my bag. They buzz me in. I was right inside the dressing room, a few women were in there topless, I kinda felt like i was intruding just as someone coming in to audition, but didn't show it, just played it cool. There was a woman, older, plain, dressed in street clothes. She asked me, how can i help u with a smile. I figured she was the house mom. I told her i was there to audition, then instantly, her smile went away, her eyebrows went down, she gave me a quick look up down and she said, we're not hiring for night shift, come back in the daytime. What's up with that? We're they really not hiring for nights? Or did she just think i wasn't fit for night shift? It was just weird how fast her tone and body language changed.

    So, anyway went to another club after that, the bouncer said we're way to busy, can't get u in right now. Then went to a third, the manager came outside and spoke to me in the parking lot. He was very nice and encouraging. He said he would probably hire me, but he doesn't audition girls without a sheriff's card first (Vegas) he told me some clubs will give ua referral without auditioning (you HAVE to have a referral to get one) but when i called the club's he recommended they all said the same, they don't give out referrals, and won't audition without a card, so now, my new dilemma. How do i get a referral if i have to have one first, but can't get one without referral. After all three clubs, calling three more, and still No actual audition, I felt a little defeated. Any advice, I still really want to dance, and I found out i had the courage to actually go for it. It was kind embarrassing, No one even auditioned me, I know I'm a good looking girl, Damn, am i that bad, I can't get the time of day? Did i do something wrong in my approach? Thanks in advance.

    Honestly, the first two situations sound like a gentle rejection. The third sounds legit.

    Sapphire gives referrals without an audition. That's where I got mine. I went in during the afternoon thru the front entrance. There will be someone in the cage to give it to you. Getting it in the afternoon worked because it gives you time to go get the card before 5 and be ready for night auditions. Good luck!

    yeah.. would be helpful to know what clubs you went to.. also maybe a brief description of your body type/look. oh and you didn't mention what time you went in? if it was at night during a busy time then yeah, understandable they said they couldn't get you in or whatever.


    i also got my referral from sapphires, though they weren't exactly friendly. i remember being a bit taken aback at first by the rudeness but that's just how vegas is, you get used to it.


    every club in vegas is always hiring for every shift. if they tell you they aren't, they're just trying to nicely reject you for whatever reason. just move on and go somewhere else- there are tons of clubs and you'll eventually find a place you fit in.

    I went to cheetahs first, then og's, finally deja vu
    It was a Friday night so, makes sense.
    I'm about 5'4" 150 and I think Mr body's about average I'm constantly told i have a big ass for a white girl, but my boobs are only B cup, stomachs not toned, but flat
    Thanks for the feedback, I'm moot going to give up, Just keep trying different times whatever, but i was a little butt hurt lol

    hmm ok. well, your #1 problem i think is that you went on a friday night. if you haven't been hired yet and want to work on a weekend night you need to go in around 7-8, before it gets busy. the managers don't want to deal with auditioning and paper work when it's crazy busy. you'd be better off going in on a weekday first tbh.

    secondly, your body doesn't really sound like the vegas standard which prefers top heavy to bottom heavy. most of the thicker girls i saw were toned and most had fake boobs. unfortunately "average' in the real world is considered "chunky" at clubs like rhino and sapphires. when i started there i was 5'1" and 100lbs with implants. i took some time off and gained about 12lbs.. had to re-audition and almost didn't get to stay on my shift. one of the dj's even told me i got fat. my bmi is 21, i'm not fat. but that's how it is. you can be a drug addict with a jacked up face and no ass but if you're super skinny with fake boobs you have a way better chance of being hired than a pretty, put together girl with a thick body and small boobs.

    i say try cheetahs, deja vu and OG's again but go on a weeknight. you could also try crazy horse 3, but again, go on a weeknight. you can get your referral at any of those too. a friend of mine went into crazy horse 3 around noon and they gave her a referral, took like 5 minutes, they just handed it over and let her know that it doesn't mean she's hired. hustler club is worth a try too. i feel like you should avoid sapphires and rhino for now- they'll probably just be assholes and mess with your self-esteem.

    if you can't get hired for night shift at any of those you can also try either working day shift or the late night shift (2AM or 4AM). you can actually make just as much $ on those shifts, but i found it hard to adjust to the crazy hours.

    also- it helps to come in all dolled up in a cute dress and heels, curl your hair, wear a full face of makeup with lashes, bring a super cute stripper outfit, nails done, etc. that can make a big difference.

    good luck

    I just want to add don't get discouraged! I am your exact size when I'm in perfect shape, 5'4 and 150. Sounds heavy, but I am proportioned and also have a big butt. I just tend to weigh heavy, it's my build. Seriously, I have egg-shaped friends who I outweigh by 20 pounds. However, like the person above you said, high-end clubs like Spearmint Rhino tend to like the skinnier girl look. But that body type is just not me. I can eat perfectly, exercise an hour a day, and I am always going to be a thicker hourglass. Also, you don't have to be at cream-of-the-crop fancy clubs to make good money. I've worked at plenty of "mid-tier" clubs day and night shift and made good money.

    Definitely work out and look your best and be as fit as you can for YOUR body type, but please don't hate yourself if you can't get down to a size "top-tier" ritzier clubs prefer. There is plenty of money to be made, and men like all shapes. (By the way I am NOT cutting down any ladies who are naturally skinny)

    Let us know how it goes! I actually want to try Vegas myself (I'm in Dallas) so keep us posted.

    If all else fails, audition day shift at Cheetah's. It'll at least get your feet in the door of the dance industry. You can build experience and get in shape and practice or whatever while working day shift.
    One day, the people who never believed in you, will brag about how they use to know you 💋

    PREACH! If I had only a week to spend in Vegas, I'd try for the competitive, bigger clubs, since I'd have better odds of hitting a good shift during that week. BUT, if you live in the area and aren't just visiting, then you should absolutely try some of the clubs that you don't hear mentioned very often. There are some serious hidden gems out there.

    And if you find a club that matches your style and preferences, that is MONEY (setting yourself up for success), whereas working at a busy club that doesn't fit your style and preferences can be a huge downer, both financially and mentally! If you're a top girl in a dive or mid-tier, you can easily make more money than an average-to-low earner in a busy, high-end club.
