Courtney Stodden
is no longer scheduled to work the pole at the famous Abbey club as
initially planned. The internet meme, who rose to fame for marrying
much-older guy Doug Hutchison when she was just 16, was supposed to
dance and sing live at the famous gay bar in West Hollywood on
Thanksgiving Eve, November 21.
Courtney's mother Krista Keller tells E! News, "It was too much for the
Abbey to handle, too much press and controversy. Courtney's not
disappointed. She rolls with the punches." Her rep, meanwhile, blames
SBE which owns the club for the cancellation, "The reasons for the
cancellation provided by SBE are a mystery to us and based on fear, in
our opinion."
"It is most unfortunate that a venue such as the SBE-controlled Abbey
needs to approve and censor performers that audiences want to see, and
would not be able to control the crowds and paparazzi anxious to see
Courtney's show," the representative additionally states.
"Courtney Stodden has a huge gay fan base and truly loves and adores
everyone in the community," the spokesperson adds. "At this time,
Courtney is heartbroken and we are currently seeking alternate
opportunities for Courtney to make her debut club performance in West
Hollywood."
Courtney, now 18, was supposed to debut her single "Reality" during the
gig. "I'm super excited, it's going to be such a fun night!" she
previously gushed. "You can expect to see a whole lot of sexy- me
singing live and super-hot backup dancers!" She went on, "I love, adore
and respect the gay community so much and can�t wait to meet
everyone."
