Travelodge May Take Legal Action Against 28 People Who Had a “Gang Bang” on The Hotel’s Premises
Lacey Amour, who is 23 and hails from Wales, told The Sun that her profession results in continuous discrimination.
“This is one of the longest-running industries [adult content creation] to exist and we face injustice and discrimination that other industries don’t. We are all professionals,” she said.
Amour and her colleagues might be facing legal action due to violating the hotel chain’s terms on December 12, 2022. The group initially tried to film at a mansion but were kicked out in the cold. They proceeded to book 4 double rooms and a family room at a Travelodge at Newcastle’s Cobalt Business Park.
Once there, the group of 28 porn stars proceeded to take photos in public spaces. However, they claim to have only had sex in private in the rooms they paid for. But Travelodge has a policy that doesn’t allow for commercial activity on their premises without prior consent.
When media images circulated on the internet, Travelodge caught wind. A spokesperson for the hotel chain told LADBible that they were pursuing an investigation into the matter.
OnlyFans Model and Porn Star Lacey Amour Says This Is Just One More Form of Discrimination
But Lacey Amour, who has over 1,400 subscribers on OnlyFans, is saying that potential legal action is yet another example of the constant uphill battle of her profession.
“Nobody takes my job seriously and I’m constantly looked down upon because of it,” Amour told WalesOnline. “If you look at the comment section of any sex worker it will say something along the lines of ‘get a real job’, ‘classy’, ‘riddled’, ‘no dignity or respect’, ‘selling your body’ etc.
They act as if they don’t go to work all day making minimum wage, using their bodies to make the CEO of the company rich.
I have been turned down for business accounts and had bank accounts closed because of the nature of the business. I have been turned down by corporate solicitors that won’t represent my business because they fear being affiliated with me will damage their reputation.
I have had landlords more than happy to rent office space to me until they find out that I work in the adult entertainment industry — then being abruptly refused the opportunity to rent this office space.
Brands have declined to work with me due to my job, while in my personal life, some landlords won’t take tenants for houses who do sex work.
These are just some examples on a professional level when just operating your business as an entertainer. There is also discrimination in your personal life with bullying, assault, stalking, etc. Colleagues, friends, family, strangers will bully and discriminate against you every single day.
I work harder than someone who works a 9-5 and just as hard as any other entrepreneur. I’m a professional but not viewed, treated or respected as such.
Lacey Amour, speaking to WalesOnline
Despite all the drawbacks, Lacey Amour insists that the benefits of her job outweigh the risks and hassles. She said the financial aspect and freedom that it gives her to travel and do what she wants makes it all worth it. And when asked to describe her life in three words, she said, “Perfect,” “Exciting,” and “Overwhelming.”
And as a side note, Amour tipped her hat to Travelodge for the quality of their rooms and beds.
“Props to [the Travelodge] for the quality of their rooms,” she told LADBible. “One double bed stood strong whilst 28 of us did the deed on it at once.”
