Detroit Strip Clubs: Strip club proposal to land in lap of new Detroit council

Strip club proposal to land in lap of new Detroit council
The Detroit News
Detroit –The City Council delivered an early holiday present to strippers today, taking no action on proposed rules to require them to wear pasties and keep their distance from patrons.
Members voted down efforts to take up the measure today, the last scheduled day of the council term before a recess until year’s end.
That means if Detroit still plans on cracking down on the city’s 33 strip clubs, it would be the job of the new council that comes on board in January. Five newcomers, including incoming President Charles Pugh, will join four incumbents.
The proposed rules would have required dancers to wear opaque pasties, banned lap dances and licensed all workers at clubs. Officials have spent much of the year debating rule changes after a judge declared current regulations unconstitutional. The lack of action is a blow to churches who have vigorously lobbied the council to get tough on the clubs.
Detroit Strip Clubs: Topless Club Vote Delayed Until 2010
November 20, 2009 at 6:36 pm | In Detroit strip clubs | No CommentsThat means that by then, the Council will have five new members. Sheila Cockrel, who walked out of last Friday’s meeting, which prevented quorum and delayed the council’s vote, will no longer be on the council.
Cockrel said that she left last week’s meeting because she felt the ordinance, which would change the way strippers interact with clients, may not be constitutionally sound and that the ordinance was rushed through. She also added that if the ordinance passed, it may mean job losses for thousands of people in the industry.
Under the proposed rules, lap dances would be banned, strippers would have to stay 6 feet apart from any clients, wear pasties and be restricted from mingling with clients in V.I.P. rooms. An alcohol ban is also being proposed along with a zoning ordinance that would dictate where clubs could be established.

Detroit Escorts: Two Women Enter Pleas In Death Of Former Brighton Doctor
November 20, 2009 at 4:49 am | In Detroit escorts | No Comments11/19/09 – The two woman charged in the death of a former Brighton podiatrist have entered pleas in the case. 32-year-old Teanna Keens and 19-year-old Stephanie Cross pleaded guilty yesterday in Wayne County Circuit Court to 2nd degree murder for their part in the death of Dr. Gary Ceresnie. The 54 year old Ceresnie, who retired from his Brighton practice last year, died August 9th in a southwest Detroit neighborhood. Police say Ceresnie picked up Keens and Cross in a known area of prostitution and drove them to a house on St. John Street. Once inside, 24-year-old Darrell Harris and 24-year-old Kamico Jackson beat and robbed Ceresnie and then fled. Ceresnie made his way to the restaurant, where he died a short time later. An autopsy determined the cause of death was a heart attack brought on by the beating. Keens and Cross, who entered the plea in exchange for charges of open murder and armed robbery being dropped, will be sentenced December 15th. Harris and Kamico, meanwhile, are scheduled for a jury trial on December 3rd. If convicted, they face the possibility of life in prison. (JK)

Detroit Strip Clubs: Twilight fever: it gets its teeth into you
November 19, 2009 at 10:12 pm | In Detroit strip clubs | No CommentsStewart is an intelligent young woman, and, as her work outside the Twilight zone attests, she is also an extremely bright talent. She can count two of Hollywood’s most accomplished film-makers, Jodie Foster (with whom she worked on Panic Room) and Sean Penn (who directed her in Into the Wild), as mentors, and she knows that the success of the Twilight series has afforded her a tremendous freedom. She has yet to reach 20 and she can already choose the projects she wants. Few teenage starlets are blessed with such luxury.
Between Twilight and New Moon she shot Welcome to the Rileys, a tough, gritty drama in which she plays a teenage stripper, while between New Moon and Eclipse she filmed the rock’n’roll biopic The Runaways, in which she stars as the eponymous band’s leader, Joan Jett. “The whole Twilight thing is kind of weird,” Stewart says, “and people have all these huge expectations, but it means that I can help to get a movie financed, and people will think, ‘Let’s go see Bella in that stripper movie’. I’m glad that it means I can do that movie, and do cool projects like The Runaways.”

Robert Pattinson Felt Like Male Stripper in New Moon
Robert Pattinson felt like he was doing a “striptease” while shooting ‘Twilight Saga: New Moon’.
The British actor, who plays Edward Cullen in the vampire franchise which has taken the world by storm, felt completely overwhelmed when he had to film a scene where he strips off.
He told Parade.com, “I felt pretty goofy stepping out into the sunlight in front of 2,000 people in a town square, ripping my clothes off. I was essentially doing a striptease.
“But here’s the irony, it was also one of the moments where I’ve really felt closest to people’s attachment to Edward. There were so many extras in that scene who were ‘Twilight’ fans who had flown in just to be a part of it. It was quite uplifting and it was also very nerve-wracking.”
Detroit Strip Clubs: For detective, Tamara Greene a girl caught in ‘dope beef’
November 19, 2009 at 8:36 am | In Detroit strip clubs | No CommentsCarlisle was also the last man in charge of tracking down the killer of Tamara “Strawberry” Greene, the stripper at the center of the fabled wild Manoogian Mansion party hosted by then-Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick.
The lawyer was Norman Yatooma, the flamboyant counsel for Greene’s family, who is suing the city for $150 million in federal court, claiming the disgraced Kilpatrick covered up the investigation of her murder because Greene danced at the party and was beaten silly by his wife Carlita.
No evidence of a party has ever come to light. Nor evidence of Greene taking a beating with a high-heel shoe. Nor is there evidence that Greene’s death in a drive-by shooting on April 2003 was a hit ordered by City Hall.
…
Carlisle said he believed that a female cop, moonlighting as a stripper, was beaten by Carlita in late September 2002. He remembered having gotten a “cop down” call at home that instructing him to rush to the Manoogian.

November 19, 2009 at 1:49 am | In Detroit escorts | No CommentsBy Lou Grieco | Wednesday, November 18, 2009, 04:52 PM
Harrison Twp., Montgomery County — The North Inn Plaza, a hotel that sheriff’s deputies claim is occupied by drug dealers and prostitutes, has been closed temporarily by the order of a Montgomery County Common Pleas judge.
Judge Connie Price issued the temporary injunction and closing order Wednesday, Nov. 18. Price had hearings on the issue, as requested by sheriff’s detectives and prosecutors, on four days in late October and early November.
Price found that there was clear and convincing evidence that the hotel, 3636 N. Dixie Drive, has been the site of multiple prostitution and drug arrests in recent years. The sheriff’s office will change the locks and barricade the parking lots Thursday.
The hotel is owned by Empire Hospitality Group, whose owner, Sridar Kadaba, lives in New Jersey.
