Two women who are models and social media influencers say they were denied entry into a popular Los Angeles nightclub because of their size.

Ella Halikas said a bouncer told her and fellow “curvy” model Alexa Jay that they couldn’t follow their friends into The Highlight Room in Hollywood.
...
The women believe this problem goes beyond one nightclub. Halikas said she has received thousands of messages from other plus-sized women sharing similar stories of being turned away from bars and nightclubs.

“One of my plus-sized friends went to a club in New York City and they said, ‘Everyone else can come in,'” said Halikas. “They let in all her thin friends, got to her and said, ‘You can’t get in.’ She asked, ‘Why?’ and he goes, ‘If you want to come in, pay $4,000.'”



Many commenters side with the clubs:

It's been standard operating procedure for swank clubs to screen out people at the door based on the aesthetics of the owners. This is hardly new.

Look, classifying yourself as a model because you have an OnlyFans page is akin to me calling myself a soldier because I play Call of Duty. It's just wildly inaccurate. Every one knows the clubs cater to a certain aesthetic

I think some night clubs want to have a reputation of being a place where only attractive people go.  They let the bouncers make the call.

Maybe we should start a virtual club on this forum where we collect pictures of people that fit our aesthetic?
