Table dance

The film Coyote Ugly, set in the New York City bar of the same name, led to a fashion for bartop dancing establishments.

Hogs and Heifers encourages dancers to leave their brassiere hanging from the ceiling to commemorate their dance.

In 2002, the Hilton sisters Paris and Nicky were reputed to be constant table dancers at club Bungalow 8.

Nicky denied the allegations and claimed that they only dance on the banquettes, and added that she did it purely "because it was fun".

At another restaurant named Da Silvano, it was reported that Kim Cattrall, Candace Bushnell and Patricia Duff were seen table dancing together.
