I don’t really expect anyone to believe me because who am I. But Joey Ryan would frequent a club in Hollywood called Boarder’s. They have a night called Bar Sinister with burlesque dance where he’d tried to pick up on them and tell them how awful his life is.
His wife took everything in the divorce and Joey ended up offering his time to older men in West Hollywood to stay afloat while going through “rehab” which the girls say sounded more like a cult. He would constantly try to get the girls to come with him to his “meetings.”
