Dancers join minimum-wage suit against Iowa adult entertainment club


Nine exotic dancers have joined a lawsuit against a West Des Moines club where they contend they worked without salary and had to pay the owner for the right to work for tips.

In 2022, former dancer Cierra Turner sued Pretty Women Inc., which owns the gentleman’s club Beach Girls at 6220 Raccoon River Drive in West Des Moines.

The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa, alleges violations of state and federal minimum-wage laws, unjust enrichment and unlawful tip sharing.

Turner’s attorneys are seeking class-action status for the lawsuit, enabling them to combine the claims of multiple dancers into a single proceeding.
