Real Housewives of Miami star Lisa Hochstein did not give consent to a Copenhagen Gentleman’s Club to use her likeness for a promotional ad, so she isn’t happy to learn of what’s happening across the pond.
Buckle up, I’m going to take you for an adventure … all the way to Denmark!
How it started:
Lisa was stunned when Instagram user @bitchofbravo DM’d her the image.
Later, the content creator posted the photo of a golden-hued promo shot to their Insta page along with a screenshot of an online chat with Lisa H. She captioned her post, “But is that even Lisa or just another one of Lenny’s creations? 💅💄💕”
“A Gentlemen’s Strip Club in Copenhagen uses a nude winged image of what appears to be a golden Lisa Hochstein for advertisement without the stripper’s (their word, not mine) permission.”
“But, they probably have the rights to the photoshoot if she indeed modeled for them…… thoughts? 🧐 Thanks to @therealbearywhite for catching this!”
Lisa was rightfully angered. “OMG, they are definitely not allowed to use my image!!!”
The RHOM star wanted more information. “Do you live there? Is there any way you can get any more photos or video, and the address?”
How it’s going:
I did some digging … aka I asked ChatGPT to be the Brain to my Penny, via wristwatch (that’s an Inspector Gadget reference, FYI), to tell me the name of the club based on the photos from @bitchofbravo‘s post.
Brain told me “that’s a storefront sign for a strip club/gentlemen’s club in Copenhagen. The design features a topless golden-winged angel, but this appears to be part of the advertising artwork on the exterior, not an actual gold statue inside the club.” ChatGPT thought the image was a statue out front, when it’s clearly a photoshopped image.
“I wasn’t able to find a record of any Copenhagen club having a gold statue as a centerpiece or décor item,” continued Brain. “It’s possible this specific venue uses the winged figure as its theme or logo? That might have led to stories about a “gold statue.”
Brain concluded, “It’s Angels Club – Gentlemen’s Club in central Copenhagen.
Address: Nørregade 1, 1165 København K. The winged ‘angel’ motif in your photo matches their branding.”
Something is rotten in the state of Denmark ….
I googled Angels Club in Copenhagen, and the following gif was me at first glance of their site …
The image featured on Angels Club’s website appears to be Lisa Hochstein.
Literally, Lisa’s image is the first thing seen when visiting the website. The image is used in the category Forside, which translates to front or outside.
However, the image was not used in the next category, “Frække,” a Danish and Norwegian word meaning “naughty,” “mischievous,” or “risqué.”
Please note, the sections Frække dansere and Frække videoer were pics/videos taken by Angels Club for Angels Club. In other words, the performers (most likely) gave their consent to use their image, as it is self-promotion. (Unlike Lisa Hochstein …)
