As a Drink Hostess

The Term “Drink Hostess”

The Term:

The terms Drink Hostess, Hostess Club, and Champagne Girl are English expressions used in various countries around the world to describe women who perform this type of work. In Italy, however, they are known as “Figuranti di Sala.”

The origin of this term dates back to the golden age of Italian night clubs, when a well-known theatrical impresario needed to make a contractual distinction between dancers and those who worked as entertainers within the venue.

At that time, Italian night clubs mainly employed dancers from Eastern Europe, France, and England. These performers would put on their shows every evening and, during the remaining time, entertain guests at the tables by talking, drinking, and dancing with them. To avoid confusion between the two professional roles, it became necessary to introduce a specific term that clearly distinguished them.

How the Job Works (Part 1)

The role of a Figurante di Sala, or Drink Hostess, requires strong interpersonal skills, friendliness, and initiative. She should have an attractive appearance, a cheerful attitude, and an elegant style, as her main task is to entertain guests and encourage them to stay in the venue for as long as possible. Clients pay for the time spent with the Drink Hostess through what is known as a “consumption,” which usually lasts between 15 and 30 minutes, depending on the venue’s policies.

Interaction with Clients

Guests seek different types of interaction with Drink Hostesses: some enjoy light flirting, others like to dance, while some simply prefer to talk and have a drink together. Payment is based on the time spent with the hostess and on the drinks ordered, which can range from simple beverages to non-alcoholic cocktails or bottles of champagne.

Availability and Requirements

Availability is generally required for six evenings per week, with an obligation to maintain an elegant and sensual appearance. The job is open to candidates of all nationalities. Applicants from outside the European Union must hold a valid residence permit.

How the Job Works (Part 2)

We have chosen to structure the Drink Hostess role into two parts for a simple reason. Today, although many venues are still referred to as night clubs, they offer a wide range of entertainment. Some maintain the traditional way of working as previously described, while others also offer the opportunity to perform private dances, as is common in lap dance venues.

The Evolution of Night Clubs

Some people describe these venues as hybrids. Those who look back to the past may say they are no longer what they once were. We prefer a more realistic perspective: venues evolve and adapt to the demands of their customers, following the same trend seen in all industries. Even when lap dance first appeared, time-based drink consumption did not exist as it does today.

The Three Types of Night Clubs

We can identify three main types of night clubs:

Night clubs without private rooms: the work is carried out exactly as previously described, with no private areas.
Night clubs with optional private rooms: both drink consumption and private dances are available upon request, leaving the choice to the hostess.
Night clubs with mandatory private rooms: in these venues, hostesses are expected to perform private dances when requested by the client.

Final Considerations

As in any industry, venues vary in quality and standards. When you contact us, we will discuss the different options, your preferences, and your earning expectations.

Questions and Answers

It depends on several factors, but earnings generally start from around €80–€100 per day and can increase from there. In addition to the fixed daily pay, venues usually offer incentive systems designed to encourage staff to generate more drink consumption.

Some venues pay daily, others at the end of the week, and others every two weeks.

Usually 50% of the price of the private dance.

Yes. The venue is required to provide you with a nationally recognized employment contract as a Drink Hostess, or as a Dancer if you choose to perform private dances as well.

Absolutely not! You owe us nothing.

Working hours are generally from 9:30 PM to 4:30 AM, with an additional hour on weekends.

No. The minimum contract is usually one month. However, some venues may be more flexible. This can be evaluated together on a case-by-case basis.

Venues provide a free taxi service with a driver for transportation to and from work.

Venues generally provide shared apartments with other girls. Some venues may instead offer accommodation in a hotel or residence.

Some venues do not charge for accommodation, others may require a small daily fee, while some only ask you to share the cost of utilities such as electricity and heating with the other girls.

You can start as early as the same day you contact us. You will be supported and advised throughout your journey, from departure to arrival at the destination you choose.

Lap Dancer.

The Term “Lap Dance”

The Term:

Lap dance, derived from the English word “lap,” meaning “grembo,” is a form of erotic dance in which a performer dances in close proximity to the client or in direct contact while he is seated. It usually takes place in nightlife venues or adult clubs, where an attractive dancer performs in a seductive way for guests seated on a chair or armchair.

Lap dance performances can also include more distant routines, often around a pole. Originally developed in clubs in Las Vegas, lap dance remains popular today, with estimates suggesting thousands of performers involved in hundreds of thousands of shows each year.

How the Job Works

How the Job Works

Role and Appearance

Lap dancers are typically known for their attractive physique and strong social skills. They usually wear sexy outfits or lingerie, combined with very high heels, which are an essential part of their stage attire. Their main role is to engage with clients in a natural way, inviting them to share a drink or to follow them into more private areas, such as the private rooms.

Objectives and Private Dances

The primary objective of a lap dancer is to encourage clients to join her in the private rooms. During these sessions, the dancer performs for the client and the show may include topless or full nudity, depending on the dancer’s choice and the venue’s policies. Each private performance lasts a minimum of 10 minutes and can continue for as long as the client wishes.

Stage Performances

In addition to private performances, dancers may also perform publicly on stage. In these cases, the show usually consists of one or two songs, sometimes chosen by the dancer, during which topless or full nudity may be part of the performance, engaging the audience present. These shows are an integral part of the entertainment offered in lap dance clubs, although they may vary according to the specific rules of each venue.

Questions and Answers

Earnings depend on several factors. Generally, an initial minimum salary is set, which may vary based on criteria such as experience and appearance. This amount usually starts from around €80–€90 per day. Some venues may also calculate the minimum salary based on the average number of private dances performed during the week or the previous evening.

In addition to the base salary, dancers receive a percentage from private dances, usually around 50%, as well as percentages on drink consumption and champagne bottles. As a result, a dancer can potentially earn several thousand euros per month.

It is important to note that each venue has its own payment system and policies, which will be clearly explained and discussed during the placement process.

In lap dance venues, dancers are usually paid every evening for their private performances. Any fixed base salary is arranged directly with the management. Many venues have their own payment systems, and in all cases, the details are clearly explained to the dancers at the time of hiring.

Show Girl.

The Term “Show”

The term:

We all know what the term “show” means, but here is a brief definition: in general, a show is an artistic performance presented for an audience, and it can take many forms, such as theatrical, cinematic, singing, or musical performances.

Shows in Nightlife Venues

The Importance of Shows in Night Clubs

As mentioned earlier, shows in night clubs were once an almost daily feature. Each venue had groups of dancers who entertained guests throughout the evening with drink consumption, and then performed around midnight.

Shows in the Past

In the past, some venues hosted various types of performers, from cabaret artists to magicians. These were considered the golden days of night clubs, frequented by well-off guests looking for an enjoyable evening. These venues were not intended exclusively for men, but were also attended by couples, including married ones.

Shows Today

Today, only a few night clubs still offer shows, and when they do, they mainly consist of striptease performances by Sexy Stars. These performances usually involve full nudity and take place mainly on weekends, while during the week they are less common.

Hostesses Performing in Night Clubs

There are some venues where a girl works as a Drink Hostess during the week and performs shows on weekends. In these cases, she usually receives a fixed daily salary and, for weekend performances, an additional pre-agreed payment.

Lap Dance and Performances by Adult Film Stars

In lap dance venues, shows take place every evening, while on weekends well-known adult film stars may perform. Typically, dancers perform on a platform around a pole, concluding the performance with topless or, in some cases, full nudity. Adult film stars, as the name suggests, offer more explicit performances, which do not require further detail here.

Questions and Answers

Usually, performers such as Sexy Stars or adult film stars perform only on weekends, generally from Friday to Sunday. Drink Hostesses in night clubs, on the other hand, usually work throughout the week or on the days with the highest attendance.

Girls working as Drink Hostesses who also take part in stage shows will usually perform between midnight and 1:00 AM, or whenever the venue owner considers it appropriate.For those working in lap dance venues, the management decides when performances take place. Generally, dancers take turns performing on stage, and in some cases this may include topless or full nudity. All these details are agreed upon directly with the venue’s management.
