DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - A former stripper is demanding an end to the new cable
television show "Stripperella," an animated series featuring Pamela Anderson as
the voice of a stripper who moonlights as a superhero.
Janet Clover, 37, filed suit Monday against Anderson and comic book legend Stan
Lee, who created "Stripperella" as well as "Spider-Man" and "The Hulk." Also
named as defendants are Viacom TV Networks doing business as TNN.
Clover claims she is Stripperella's "true creator," according to the lawsuit
filed in Daytona Beach circuit court.
Clover, an unemployed Palm Coast resident who identifies herself in the lawsuit
as "Sensual Entertainer's Home Studio Founder," said she wrote and filed the
suit without the advice or assistance of an attorney.
"This office challenges Lee to produce proof of his creative work, as true
authorship belongs to Tanga's Jazz," she wrote, referring to an adult club in
Tampa where she claims she asked Lee about the concept of Stripperella a year
ago during a private dance session.
"Evidence to support is available upon request," she wrote.
Viacom officials in New York referred comment to media spokesman Robert Pini in
Los Angeles, but he did not return several phone messages.
Anderson's agent, Hedda Moye of Los Angeles, declined to comment.
"I'm just trying to get this off TV because it's not his idea," Clover told The
Daytona Beach News-Journal. "She was supposed to be a nurse, which is what I'm
studying for. I can't remember much about Mr. Lee, little bits and pieces come
back. You know, I meet a lot of men."
"Stripperella" first aired last Thursday on TNN, which is being renamed Spike
TV. Viacom is the cable network's parent company.
