New York, Feb 4 (ANI): Brad Pitt has revealed that his strangest job before he became a hotshot actor was to drive strippers to their gigs.
The 48-year-old actor made the revelation in an interview with James Lipton for talk show ‘Inside the Actors Studio’.
“I drove strippers, which was interesting,” the New York Post quoted the actor as saying on the show.
“It was an odd job. There’s a place called the Job Factory where people listed odd jobs they needed for a little while and you’d go and sign up.
“It said, ‘Drive strippers.’ I said, ‘I got a car.’ My job was to go to the place and get the assignment, then go to the girl’s apartment, pick her up, and drive her to the party,” he revealed.

New York Strip Clubs: Ben Gazzara, Risk-Taking Actor, Is Dead at 81

The two had had bit parts in the 1969 comedy “If It’s Tuesday, This Must Be Belgium,” but it was in “Husbands” (1970), directed by Mr. Cassavetes, that they, along with Peter Falk, really made an impression as unhappily married men out for a drunken night on the town together. As Mr. Gazzara wrote in his autobiography, “In the Moment” (2004), the on-camera camaraderie was so convincing that people assumed the three men had been lifelong friends; in fact they had barely known one another when the filming began, though they became friends during it.
Mr. Gazzara’s most important role for Mr. Cassavetes was in “The Killing of a Chinese Bookie” (1976), in which he played a strip club owner in debt to the mob. “It’s a thoughtful, intelligent interpretation of a role that just may not have as much depth to it as he’s ready to give it,” Vincent Canby of The New York Times wrote of Mr. Gazzara’s performance.

Nick: …And saying it. And saying it. And saying it…
To a guy standing on the sidewalk: “Oh you’re a male model, come on in.”
Nick: It’s important to note how casually this male model was standing on the sidewalk, and how out of his way the bouncer went to get him in the club. Do you think he recognized him from the J. Crew lookbook?
Puja: I personally loved his work for JC Penny’s Fall collection.
Nick: I haven’t seen it, but I’m sure it’s great.
“Let the girls through!” Nick: …And saying it. And Saying it. And saying it…

New York Strip Clubs: Netflix Series Lilyhammer: Little Stevie’s Gangsta Rap Debuts February 6

Monday February 6 marks the debut for the first of five original series Netflix is currently developing for their 23.5 million-strong subscriber base. Lilyhammer was produced in Norway and its recent debut there garnered the highest ratings ever for a Norwegian dramatic series.
The series stars Little Steven Van Zandt (The Sopranos, Bruce Springsteen’s E Street Band, Little Steven’s Underground Garage) as the main character, Frankie (The Fixer) Tagliano. Tagliano could be a distant cousin to the beloved but ruthless strip club owner and loyal consigliere Silvio Dante from The Sopranos. It’s great to see Van Zandt take a starring role in an episodic series — he, you should pardon the expression, kills it.
The story begins as Tagliano, a mobbed up New York bar owner, becomes a FBI informant and is sent away on the witness protection plan by his own request to Norway. Why Norway? Because he saw the lovely quiet town of Lillehammer on TV during the 1984 Olympics and it looked serene — and who in their right mind would expect to find him there, of all places.

New York Strip Clubs: State Dept. pulls visa sponsor’s designation

The agency also plans on “re-emphasizing the adult entertainment industry prohibition by specifically prohibiting jobs with escort services, adult book/video stores, massage parlors, and strip clubs.”
Another change: Capping the number of hours a student could work at 40 – a move the agency predicted would be “by far the most controversial.”
“Almost all SWT employers expect their participants to work more than a 40-hour week,” Ereli wrote.
Critics say that’s one of the problems with the program: Students, like the ones in Pennsylvania, are often exploited – working long hours with no overtime and forced to live in substandard housing. The AP interviewed dozens of students across the country who complained about working conditions, many in resort areas in Florida, the Carolinas and Pennsylvania.

The AP also found that third-party brokers forced some women – mostly from Eastern European nations – to work in U.S. strip clubs.

New York Strip Clubs: ‘Unsung:’ ‘Full Force’ Recap

But the group had another idea. They wanted to produce a band with a lead female singer. They wanted a woman who was Latin and seemed to be the real Roxanne. Then Lisa Martinez was found. She auditioned for Full Force in Brooklyn and was terrified when she first met them. They wrote a song for her that was supposed to be from the woman’s prospective. It was called, “I Wonder If I Take You Home” and was a hit for the group Full Force created for her, Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam.
Full Force went on to sign with Columbia Record and immediately had the hit, “Alice.” They also created the Alice Sandwich dance move which had Paul lifting up a woman and one of his brothers on stage.
The group had everything going for it, including, in their own words, a stripper mentality; they dressed like rockers and hip hop singers, and had the right hair style, the jheri curl.
