Sam Ronson, Pam Anderson tricked into strip club opening appearance

fp_2144721_ronson_samantha_
Lindsay Lohan’s maybe off-again ex, Samantha Ronson, tweeted from a DJ gig on Saturday night that she was less than happy with the fact that she was working at a strip club. Promoters who hired her gave the impression that it was just a nightclub, not a topless gentlemen’s club. Shannen Doherty also expressed her surprise that the place was a strip club while Pamela Anderson probably knew about it ahead of time since she looked like she was trying to compete with the talent.

Next time, these stars will be reading the fine print!

Samantha Ronson, Pamela Anderson and Shannen Doherty were not too pleased when they found out they were headed to a strip club Tuesday night.

They all signed on to attend the grand opening of Sapphire Gentleman’s Club in NYC without realizing there would be topless dancers and bodypainted performers.

Ronson — who recently broke up with girlfriend Lindsay Lohan — was visibly angry for having to DJ at the event.

“Sam feels she got tricked into performing,” a source told Usmagazine.com the day of the party. “She didn’t know it was a strip club. She doesn’t want to go on tonight!”

In fact, she wrote on her Twitter page that she was not aware that the party was at a strip club when she signed on.

“Note to self: read the whole email … before saying yes to DJ gigs,” she wrote. “Sapphire??? Oops!”

Ronson, who refused to pose for photos or do interviews, worked the DJ booth as Sapphire dancers performed provocatively right in front of her. Still, Ronson focused on her music and did not look at the performers once.

“The silver lining to my night — it has never been more appropriate for me to play ‘Make it Rain,'” Ronson wrote on her Twitter page later in the evening.

Shannen Doherty was equally as surprised by the venue.

“I had no idea it was a strip club!” Doherty, who left after 45 minutes, told Us. “They told me it was a restaurant or club, so I was kind of in shock.”

Also in attendance that night was Pamela Anderson, who kept to herself in a roped-off booth. Her security guard told Us that she wanted to be “left alone.”

The NY Post also covered this story, but claimed that all the dancers stayed clothed until Ronson finished her set. They added the obnoxious detail that a stripper claimed “We were told she’s so girl-crazy, she can’t concentrate if we strip.” Ronson responded to this article on Twitter, saying “that’s retarded- they booked me telling me it was a regular club, not a strip club- i prefer people who i dj for to wear tops.” You can’t blame her for being annoyed if it wasn’t what she thought she signed up for.

The celebrities must not follow the news as much as we do as I remember reading a couple weeks ago that the place was a dual steak house/strip club. Ten to one Anderson knew ahead of time, though. The PETA advocate was getting mocked in the press for her hypocrisy at planning to attend the opening of a steakhouse. The fact that boobs were also on the menu was probably incidental.

    Didn’t these ladies even look at the contract?

    The name “Sapphire Gentleman’s Club” hardly sounds like a nursery school.

  2. boomchakaboom says:

    They didn’t know something called a “gentleman’s club” was a strip joint?

  3. barneslr says:

    Yeah, I agree. I may not be the most wordly person ever, but I know that “gentleman’s club” equals strip club or topless club.

  4. CandyKay says:

    And yet there’s so rarely any gentlemen there.

  5. Boom says:

    c’mon, they all knew what kinda club it was…..and they got paid for doing nothing (except for Sam Ronson). Probably more than i make in a year. So please stop complaining ladies.

  6. skeptical says:

    LOL poor Sam! when I first read about this it was only being mentioned as a steakhouse in what I was reading. clearly I didn’t read enough either. Ack! i would have shown up too!

    And depending on how firm her Jewish beliefs are… it could be a seriously bad thing for her to look at any naked woman she’s not involved with. She just might be seriously pissed!

    I think Anderson might have known the whole truth.. but then again doesn’t she normally go around half-dressed?

  7. ! says:

    I shudder to think of the nasty types of men who would watch a strip show while eating a steak. That is just disgusting.

  8. laughingdog says:

    Ronson “performing”? Spinning records, or more correctly: pressing play, isn’t performing. That’s just working.

  9. Anoneemouse says:

    Hmmm….the fact that the NAME of the place is “Sapphire Gentlemen’s Club” doesn’t give it away? Hello?

  10. the original kate says:
