Zipporah Foster isn’t finished yet.
The 28-year-old exotic dancer from Gresham is filing lawsuits against Portland-area strip joints faster than a drunk can throw singles. Foster is already suing three clubs where she’s worked (see “Strip Fees,” WW, July 1, 2009). Next up is Shimmers, a Southeast Portland dive she plans to sue as early as this month.
The suits, all filed since June, allege Foster should have been paid the state’s minimum wage of $8.40 an hour for her time at the pole. Instead, most strippers nationwide dance for tips only. On top of that, they’re often expected to pay the club a “stage fee” for each shift—and tip out the bar staff.
