Adult film star Stormy Daniels performed in an Ohio strip club Thursday night after charges prompted by her appearance the night before in another venue were dismissed.
Daniels, whose legal name is Stephanie Clifford, gained notoriety after suing President Donald Trump following an alleged affair.
She had faced three misdemeanor counts of illegally touching a patron, including three undercover detectives, while performing at Sirens Gentlemen’s Club in Columbus on Wednesday night.
She performed at a different venue Thursday night, but in the same city. She was originally scheduled for another performance at Sirens that night, but her attorney, Michael Avenatti, said she opted to find another club.
Daniels was seen entering the Vanity Gentlemen’s Club on Thursday evening. When she left later, CNN’s Sara Sidner asked if she was hoping for an apology from Columbus city.
“No,” she replied. “I think they (Columbus police) were doing their jobs and there was a miscommunication.”
Daniels said the past 24 hours had been “intense, but totally worth it.”
Detectives among patrons she allegedly touched
In a probable cause affidavit obtained by CNN affiliate WSYX, detectives who were at the Sirens Gentlemen’s Club said they observed Daniels remove her top and force patrons’ faces into her chest.
