ST. LOUIS, Mo. (KMOX) – Missouri Lt. Governor Peter Kinder breaks his silence on the exotic dancer allegations, issuing a brief statement of denial and blaming the scandal on Governor Jay Nixon.
Former Penthouse Pet and exotic dancer Tammy Chapman told the Riverfront Times and KMOX that Kinder was a nuisance customer in the 1990s, when she allegedly performed dances for the then state senator at a metro-east strip club. She claims Kinder had to be asked not to return after he became “aggressive” during her dance routines. Chapman also claims that in recent months, she ran into Kinder at a south St. Louis bar known for its “pantsless” waitresses, and Kinder allegedly offered to let her stay in his Brentwood condominium, which is campaign-funded.
The Kinder statement does not address any specific allegations.
“Like most people I am not proud of every place I have been but this woman’s bizarre story is not true,” the statement says, “The Democrats have tried to use these tactics against me in the past and they have failed. Jay Nixon may want to make up false stories about the past, but I, like most Missourians, remain focused on the issues that are important to Missourians like jobs and education.”
