Sybil Jo and Elly Arrow discuss the increasing trend of female celebrities using strip clubs (and in one case, escort prostitution). Is this a way to signal status? To bond over the objectification of other women like men do? What if the celebrity is an actress researching for a movie role or if the woman is an ex-dancer herself? What does it mean for the rest of us when the (American) elite declares the stripping world their social hub?
