A former Scores dancer has filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against the club alleging all sorts of mistreatment while she worked there back in 2005. In a lawsuit filed yesterday, Ruth Fowler says that the club pressured dancers into having sex with upscale clients as well as managers. Scores has denied accusations that prostitution took place in the club since having its liquor license revoked in March after police found dancers having sex for money on the premises. Among other claims, the NY Daily News reports that Fowler alleges "her audition lasted just 30 seconds while dancers who managers had no intention of hiring were forced to bump and grind for 20 minutes" and that "a manager once smeared a steaming hot steak over her face." Earlier this summer, Fowler published the memoir No Man's Land about her life as a stripper.
