    Default stupid newbie question

    ok yea this q will definatly show my inexperience! ha ha ha anyway I went to a strip club for my first time ever 2 weeks ago. I mentioned to one of my loud mouthed friends that maybe I should start stripping. So what does she do? She goes up to one of the dancers and shares with her that she has a friend that wants to be a stripper. la la la dadada to make a long story short I had ppl coming up to me asking if I was a stripper, I had the DJ and the bartender tell me when to come audition and what to wear, IT WAS CRAZY! So now I am thinking about it, so here is my real question~
    Does the club pay you? I mean besides tips, does the club itself pay you hourly? I have heard of things like "house fees" and whatever so I'm not sure what I'm getting myself into.
    Thanx Again!

    There is a thing called "House Fees" which usually pays the bouncers, DJ, make-up/hair stylists(if your club has them....) Which can range greatly...you'll have to ask your club if they charge... Some clubs also REQUIRE you to tip the DJ or bartender or whatever...

    Other than that, I have heard that a lot of clubs don't pay their dancers hourly like at a normal job, but they get to keep all of their tips or a large portion of their tips.


    Try to find that Stripper FAQ site, its posted somewhere else in the Newbie Board. It helps explain that a little better!

    Good luck!

    There are some topless or bikini clubs that pay you per shift, but there's not many. Nude clubs (where you can probably earn more money)mostly don't pay you and go by the house fee/stage fee system. On top of that you may have to tip staff members. The club might also take part of the money for each dnce you do.

    Typically you pay the house a fee to use the premesis as a independant contractor. Can range greatly. Some clubs are as little as $15... some as much as a few hundred a night.

    You usually tip the bouncers, DJ, housemom (if they have one) and SOME places you tip the manager...

    You should go in for an audition and ask the manager how this particular club works... theyre all different

    You need to do a lot of reading on this board before you audition.
