Can You Get Me In?!

Ladies, ladies, ladies. Now I hope you did not think this blog was only targeting the wrong doings of males. For this edition, I’d like to point out the lack in club etiquette I have recently witnessed among bourgeoisie females when trying to get in.

No one wants to pay an entry fee at a nightclub, so like the intelligent club goer you are, you contact the promoters. Whether it's via Facebook or Text, you are informed of the venue, dress code, and the time to be there. Now being a club promoter in the past myself, I cannot stress this enough. When we say arrive no later than 11pm, we mean it. Oh but of course, you got so caught up in the self-photo opp (Yes, I am guilty too) that you arrived at 12am to a nightclub where you can hardly get through the entry gates.

You pay $20 to valet that BMW you know you did not pay for. You proudly rock that $300 Foreign Exchange dress and pair it with those 6” Louboutins. Being that Guestlist has been closed for well over an hour, the security guard looks you up and down and demands a cover fee. You protest the cover charge, I mean, how could they not let you in for free? After an obnoxious attempt of you marketing yourself as the “baddest female that ever walked into the venue,” the security guard mentions capacity and turns you away unless you decide to purchase that overpriced Grey Goose bottle. Mortified, you text the promoter "Can you come out? We can’t get in!”

After back to back text messages, the promoter reveals there’s nothing he or she can do. Your flirt tune changes. You exclaim that you have certain expectations in how to be treated as a guest. You are not the type to wait and most certainly are not the type to pay. Stop right there, rewind! She said she's not trying to pay a $20 to get in after being 2 hours late? Aren't you the same woman that proudly announces you don't need a man in your life, that you got that independent woman swag? Te-ha! Being the prideful woman you are, you turn away and head to the next club over and proudly check in on Facebook along with the 20 other bourgeois females who decided to arrive fashionably late.

Lesson: Ladies, promoters can only do so much, especially when it comes to one of the hottest nightclubs in Los Angeles. When we say be somewhere by a certain time so we can help you get in, be there. Otherwise feel free to enjoy the photos posted from the event on FB the following day.
