The True Story Behind Hulu’s Welcome to Chippendales

Spoilers for Welcome to Chippendales ahead

Before there was Magic Mike , there was Chippendales. Hulu’s limited series Welcome to Chippendales , premiering Nov. 22, tells the true story behind the revolutionary all-male revue founded by Somen “Steve” Banerjee in 1980s Los Angeles. But this tale of male strippers, jealousy, and murder is stranger than anything Hollywood could have come up with.

The eight-episode true-crime docudrama, starring Kumail Nanjiani , Juliette Lewis, and White Lotus ’ Murray Bartlett , is based on the 2014 book, Deadly Dance: The Chippendales Murders . The series, like the book, delves into the rise of the popular all-male strip club for women and the downfall of its owner. But to Nanjiani, who plays Banerjee, the man is more than a villain; he’s an example of the American Dream gone wrong. “He’s very uncomfortable in his own skin,” Nanjiani told the New York Times . “The only way he can feel he has value is by being successful. But I think he also felt a little bit of shame about the way he was making money.” Keep reading to learn the true story behind Welcome to Chippendales.

Who is Somen “Steve” Banerjee?

Banerjee was an Indian immigrant who moved to the United States in the 1960s. He worked for Mattel and operated a Mobil gas station in Southern California before buying a failing L.A. club in 1975, which he named Destiny II. (In the series, Nanjiani’s Steve explains that the name implied that it was the sequel to an already successful business.) But the dance club, which later hosted female mud wrestling and exotic dancing, struggled to find its audience.

Four years later, Banerjee and his partner, lawyer Bruce Nahin, renamed it Chippendales in honor of the wooden furniture style in the club and launched a ladies only club where they could watch men strip. “It was the first time ever where something was completely geared to the ladies,” Candace Mayeron, former associate producer for Chippendales, told 20/20 in 2021. “We built an environment for women to let it all hang out.”

How did Steve Banerjee get the idea for Chippendales?

It was club promoter and pimp Paul Snider (played by Dan Stevens) who suggested Banerjee turn his club into a strip club for women. “Paul Snider had seen some gay male review and thought it would be kind of like hammy and fun to do this for women,” Natalia Petrzela, the host of the podcast Welcome To Your Fantasy , which covers the Chippendales murder mystery, told Vice in 2021. “And he brought the idea to Banerjee and that’s how it began.”

Snider’s wife, Playboy Playmate Dorothy Stratten (played by Nicola Peltz-Beckham), reportedly suggested that the shirtless Chippendale dancers wear bow tie collars and cuffs as a nod to the Playboy bunnies. In the A&E docuseries Secrets of the Chippendales Murders , Eric Gilbert, the former creative director of Playboy, made the case that Hefner deserves credit for Chippendales’ success. “Hugh Hefner gave the greatest gift to Steve Banerjee by allowing him to take that cuffs and collar trademark and make it into a Chippendales look,” he said. “That reversal was such an eye grabber that women were just immediately locked into it.”

Banerjee hired Snider as Chippendales’ first emcee in 1979, but quickly replaced him after discovering he lacked the charisma needed for the role. In August 1980, Snider killed Stratten, from whom he was estranged, and himself. Stratten’s tragic death was the subject of two movies: Bob Fosse’s Star 80 and Death of a Centerfold: The Dorothy Stratten Story starring Jamie Lee Curtis .

Who is Nick De Noia?

Nick De Noia, played by Bartlett, was a charismatic choreographer who had won two Emmys for his work on the NBC children’s series Unicorn Tales. In 1981, Banerjee hired him to create routines for his Chippendales dancers, naming him the company’s in-house choreographer, but the two often butted heads. Former Chippendales dancer Read Scot told People that ​​ the pair “used to go toe-to-toe and just scream and curse at each other” over the direction of the shows.

In 1984, De Noia moved to New York and set up a new Chippendales show, which included a sexy Frankenstein send-up called “ The Perfect Man . ” He later launched a successful tour under Chippendales Universal, an independent organization which paid royalties to Banerjee for the right to use the Chippendale name. This tour brought in a lot of money for Banerjee, but caused a rift in the already rocky relationship between the founder and choreographer.

When did things start to go wrong for Chippendales?

Soon after its creation, Chippendales became a cultural phenomenon that spawned sexy calendars, appearances on Phil Donahue , and SNL spoofs . As Chippendales’ success grew, De Noia became the face of the franchise, even earning himself the nickname “Mr. Chippendales,” which didn’t sit well with Banerjee. “I think that [nickname] helped fuel the anger that Steve had toward Nick,” Mayeron told Elle in 2021 . “Their verbal fights became vicious.”

Banerjee had other problems beyond his jealousy of De Noia. For years, he had been engaging in corrupt business practices that put his empire at risk. In 1979, he hired someone to burn down a rival nightclub, Moody’s Disco. Five years later, he attempted to do the same with another competitor. By 1987, Chippendales filed for bankruptcy following a racial discrimination lawsuit brought forward by Black UCLA law student, Don Gibson, after he was denied entry to the nightclub.

As Banerjee became more desperate to protect himself, he became angrier about the deal he had struck with De Noia for the Chippendales tour. The contract, which De Noia had written on a cocktail napkin, stated that De Noia would own the rights to the tour and they would split the tour’s profits 50/50 in perpetuity. As the tour became more successful, Banerjee became convinced that De Noia was stealing from him and hired Ray Colon, a former police officer and nightclub performer, to help him take down De Noia. On April 7, 1987, De Noia was shot to death while sitting at his desk in his New York office.

What happened to Steve Banerjee?

For years, De Noia’s murder went unsolved, which seemed to embolden Banerjee, who had bought back the touring rights following the choreographer’s death. In 1990, he again enlisted Colon’s help in an attempted hit on Michael Fullington, a former Chippendales dancer and choreographer, and two other ex-Chippendales dancers who had formed a rival troupe called Adonis: Men of Hollywood.

The hitman Colon had hired didn’t go through with the job, but he did inform the FBI of the murder plot. When the FBI searched Colon’s apartment they found enough cyanide to kill 230 people, according to 20/20 . After spending seven months in jail, Colon agreed to help the FBI build a case against Banerjee—no easy task. In June 1992, Colon met with Banerjee in hopes of getting a confession out of him, but Banerjee refused to answer his questions out loud. Instead, he responded using Post-Its, which he then immediately flushed down the toilet. The following year, Colon met with Banerjee in Zurich, Switzerland and the FBI was able to get a recording of Banerjee confessing to giving Colon $500 to buy the guns used in De Noia’s murder.

In September 1993, Banerjee was charged with enlisting Colon to commit the murder of De Noia and the attempted murder of three former Chippendales dancers. After pleading guilty to murder for hire, as well as attempted arson, and racketeering, he entered into a plea agreement in which he would serve 26 years in prison and lose his share of Chippendales. On October 23, 1994, hours before he was scheduled to be sentenced for the murder-for-hire of De Noia, Banerjee died by suicide .

“I was on the courthouse steps with our emcee and two of our dancers, when someone came out and said there would be no hearing, because Steve had killed himself in jail the night before,” Mayeron told Elle . “I felt cheated, big time.” Scot, who was one of Banerjee’s attempted targets, agreed, telling 20/20 , “[Banerjee] didn’t get the punishment he deserved. He didn’t serve the time for Nick De Noia, for destroying lives, for trying to kill people. He got off easy. He was a coward.”

Did Chippendales survive the scandal?

After Banerjee’s death, his ex-wife Irene Banerjee, who died in 2001, inherited Chippendales. The Banerjee family is no longer involved in Chippendales, but Banerjee’s son, Christian, founded his own male revue, Strippendales, in 2020. “It wasn’t like I saw Magic Mike and wanted to emulate what I’ve seen,” he told the New York Post . “This came from a much deeper place in my soul.”

Chippendales has continued to hold a special place in culture. The touring show still performs throughout the world and its Las Vegas residency continues to be a popular destination 40 years after Banerjee opened the original club. “People aren’t just watching for sexual titillation,” Petrzela told Los Angeles Magazine when asked how Chippendales managed to survive the scandal. “They’re going out to have a social experience with their girlfriends. It’s a safe space for women.”

Welcome to Chippendales Trailer Offers a Battle of the Bulge

Producing cringe exercise videos starring male strippers is one way to achieve your American (financial) dreams. Somen “Steve” Banerjee, for example, pulled himself up by his bow ties to create a male-stripper empire, the Chippendales. Whether intentionally or not, he weaponized the tide of second-wave feminism to make a ton of cash off of women’s hard-won sexual freedom in the 1980s, promising a fantasy in exchange for paid lap dances. The capitalist tragedy about a cash business with a seedy underbelly will get a new life on Hulu with a series from the creators of Pam & Tommy led by Eternals ’ Kumail Nanjiani as Banerjee.

The show’s new trailer shows tantalizing tidbits — with Nanjiani starting small and working his way up to king of the male strippers. Figuring heavily in the trailer is Murray Bartlett as Nanjiani’s employee turned enemy in the world of sexy, sexy boys. Perhaps most important is the intensified version of Journey’s “Anyway You Want It.” Ah, the ’80s.

The podcast Welcome to Your Fantasy previously documented the events that led to the murder of the creative force behind the Chippendales with more than 100 hours of footage and 60 interviews, opting for a layered approach to the complicated tale. Annaleigh Ashford stars in this TV adaptation alongside Juliette Lewis, Andrew Rannells, Dan Stevens, Quentin Plair, Robin de Jesús, and Nicola Peltz. The stripper drama takes the stage on Hulu on November 22.

Biography - Chippendales

From the dimly lit nightclub in Los Angeles to the big show stage: as pioneers of male striptease, the Chippendales have been setting their own standards for over four decades. In addition to sizzling eroticism, elaborately choreographed dance and song numbers are an integral part of changing Chippendales shows. Wherever these muscle-bound entertainers perform, the predominantly female audience goes into raptures.

Making a virtue of necessity: Like many brilliant ideas, the foundation of the probably most famous stripper formation in the world is based on a seemingly hopeless situation. Because their nightclub called "Destiny II" was barely making a profit worth mentioning, Somen "Steve" Banerjee and Bruce Nahin first hired a group of male dancers and strippers in 1979.

Under the direction of Paul Snider, the stage performers, named after the Chippendale furnishings of their new venue, quickly advance to become a much sought-after export hit. The first Chippendales tours are still limited to US territory, but soon the whole world is at the feet of the handsome multi-talents. With their stimulating performance art, the Chippendales found a new era of stylish eroticism .

The Chippendales conquer the world

As the happy news of this extraordinary live experience quickly spreads, the Chippendales continue to cultivate their signature style. From the beginning, the white collars with black bow ties and the sleeve cuffs around the wrists act as a signature identifier. Even though the sleeves come off in the course of every Chippendales show, these elements run like a red thread through the choreographies presented with heart and soul.

After the turn of the millennium, the Chippendales are on the road in a quintuple line-up: while four ensembles are divided between the west and east coasts of the USA, Boston and the gambling metropolis of Las Vegas, a fifth formation takes on the Chippendales tours in Europe and South Africa.

Varying guest stars from US actor Tyson Beckford to German comedian Faisal Kawusi complete the well-rehearsed teams and provide surprise moments. Even stars from reality TV formats occasionally let their clothes down: TV Bachelor Paul Jahnke, for example, joined the strippers for the 2019 Germany tour.

That's what sets Chippendales shows apart

In addition to the excellent staging, Chippendales shows are characterised by the welcome interaction of the dancers with the female audience, who are sometimes even invited on stage. What could be more exciting than admiring the defined six-packs of your favourite actors up close for once? Of course, the obligatory Chippendales selfie after the show is not to be missed!

With a show lasting around 90 minutes plus an intermission, Ladies' Nights with the Chippendales are an unforgettable experience. Sipping freshly mixed cocktails and celebrating the special aesthetics of trained Adonis bodies: this is what a very special programme for a birthday party, hen party or simply an evening with your best girlfriends can look like.

In order to meet the demands of the show, Chippendales applicants go through a strict selection process. Besides a natural stage presence, special musical and dancing skills as well as a flawless, athletically shaped body are among the most important selection criteria. An acceptance with the Chippendales is like an accolade in the field of striptease art.

The Chippendales must be experienced live

Once you see the Chippendales on stage, you are guaranteed not to want to miss this titillating form of entertainment. A Chippendales ticket promises the best entertainment in revue style and a real Las Vegas feeling. Chippendales fans can enjoy the spectacular shows of the striptease dancers at numerous stations throughout Germany. If that's not a reason to celebrate!

Magnifique spectacle, de belles chorégraphies et de beaux fous rires. Sans oublier le plaisir des yeux à regarder ces beaux messieurs !! Un événement que je peux que recommander !

Wie immer absolutes Highlight!

Ich war vor ca. 4 Jahren das letzte Mal bei den Chippendales, und ich muss sagen, sie sind auch heute noch sensationell. Meine Freundin, welche ich fast etwas widerwillig mitgeschleppt habe, war am Ende so begeistert, dass sie mich anwies für das nächste Jahr wieder ein Ticket für sie zu nehmen. Das sagt doch alles? Man muss es gesehen haben!

Unvergesslich

Die Show war unglaublich. ich und meine Freundinnen hatten einen super Abend. Die Chipps sind hot hot hot! Ich kann die Show nur weiterempfehlen und werde selbst sicher wieder die Chipps besuchen.

Is Chippendales Still Around? Who Owns Chippendales Now?

When Chippendales first introduced all-male striptease performances in the late 1970s, it was practically unheard of. These performances soon soared in popularity with women, and Chippendales became the go-to destination for many. However, in the years after that, issues between the owners behind the scenes led to a shocking story of murder, attempted murder, and suicide. Now, A&E’s ‘ Secrets of the Chippendales’ delves into the company’s history and what became of a successful business. So, if you’re wondering the same, we’ve got you covered.

Is Chippendales Still Around?

Somen “Steve” Banerjee had owned a nightclub in Los Angeles, California, and in 1979, launched the first all-male stripper show at the venue. Over the next few years, it turned out that these shows made the club a highly profitable venture, and the entrepreneur in Steve wanted to expand on the success. This led to him hiring Nick De Noia, a television producer and choreographer .

At its height, Chippendales had clubs in several states, and Nick took them on the road, visiting many cities with dancers and putting on a show. At the time, Steve had signed over the rights to and half of the profits from touring in a now-infamous napkin deal to Nick. However, once it became clear that touring was a more profitable venture than the actual club, the relationship between Nick and Steve soured. This led to a murder-for-hire plot where Steve recruited someone to have Nick killed, ending with the choreographer’s murder in 1987.

After a guilty plea for the murder-for-hire plot, Steve killed himself while in prison in October 1994, before the scheduled sentencing hearing. Since then, Chippendales has changed owners but is still going strong. It has shows playing at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, continuing with the dancers wearing their trademark bowtie, collar, and shirt cuff costume.

Apart from the usual shows, they offer services for bachelorette parties and birthday parties, among others. While many other male revue shows have popped up since Chippendales’ inception, the latter is still considered a classic and garners a large crowd. Chippendales’ dancers were also supposed to go on a planned tour across the world, but it seems that the COVID-19 pandemic has put a pin in that for the time being.

Who Owns Chippendales Now?

During the 1990s, Lou Pearlman, a record producer who formed and managed the Backstreet Boys, bought the Chippendale brand. Lou wanted to turn it into a boy band at the time, but that turned out to be an unsuccessful venture. He later went to prison for fraud and died while in jail. According to a report from 2013, Chippendales is owned by several businessmen from New York.

Apart from the shows at the club, the company also sells licensed merchandise as part of the business. Furthermore, Steve’s son, Christian Banerjee, is also a stripper who launched his own company, Strippendales, in 2020. He hopes to reach the levels of fame his father’s company did during the 1980s.

Collars&Cuffs

The history of CHIPPENDALES begins in 1979 when the Indian emigrant Somen Banerjee bought an old bar in Los Angeles. Inspired by British furniture maker Thomas Chippendale, he converted the bar into a club called “Chippendales”. Here he develops a show with ten to twelve dancers who embody the most diverse types of men. Her legendary trademark: “Collars&Cuffs” (bow ties and cuffs). The club is so successful that the show is brought to New York, where it immediately hits home. With the two shows in the tourist cities of New York and Los Angeles, the CHIPPENDALES quickly made a name for themselves in the USA. Every woman who has seen the Chippendales tells her friends, sisters, mothers and grandmothers about this unique show. Today, the CHIPPENDALES perform in their very own Las Vegas theater year-round to a full audience.    It quickly becomes clear why the CHIPPENDALES are the undisputed No. 1 worldwide in the field of women’s entertainment: they have style and class. The exciting choreographies of the 10 – 12-man ensemble to current hits and classics, to the imaginative costumes inspired by women’s dreams, are accompanied by impressive lighting technology.

The show takes visitors away from their everyday lives to a very special evening full of passion and a zest for life. An experience that will be remembered forever!
