Category: Curse of the Chippendales

Chippendales was born in 1979 from a West Hollywood club called “Destiny II” owned by Somen ‘Steve’ Banerjee and Bruce Nahinwned when promoter Paul Snider suggested that they have an all-male strip revue. Destiny II’s owners were trying anything to attract attention to their club, so they decided to try out Paul’s idea. He was inspired by an all-male strip club in Canada that catered to gay men. His idea, however, was to have an all-male show for women. Paul’s idea turned into an international sensation but ended in murder and mayhem for him.

The male adult entertainment brand Chippendales and the 1990s cartoon series Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers have very similar names for a good reason: they have the same origin for their names.
