"A dive-bar chain that opened in the East Village in 1993 and became famous for its appearance in a 2000 film, Coyote Ugly is the subject of a joint lawsuit filed in December 2022 by models Eva Pepaj, Lina Posada, and Dessie Mitcheson, who claim the bar used their photos in advertisements in a way that made it appear they had previously worked at the club even though none of the women were ever hired by the chain." - Luke Fortney
