"I'm not advertising fresh meat"

An advert on the Facebook page of strip club Goldfinger in Kópavogur, a suburb of Reykjavik shows three scantily clad women and the text, "Just arrived... Andrea from Hungary, Lila from France, Alice from Canada." Owner Jaroslava Davíðsson denies that any kind of human trafficing or prostitution is implied. 

"They're just foreign girls who apply for work to dance," explans Davíðsson to mbl.is. "Some stay for a few days to visit Iceland and some don't even work here, just do a few shows and leave." She adds that she has seven female dancers at Goldfinger who have worked there for nine years. The Facebook ad was shared into a group for buyers of erotic massages and Davíðsson states that she didn't know about the share. 

"I didn't notice, I usually really watch out for these kind of shares or inappropriate comments. Everything is clean and nice at our establishment." She adds that all the women applying to Goldfinger from abroad receive an Icelandic social security number (kennitala) and denies that prostitution takes place. "No, no, no. Impossible. We work five nights a week, I pick up the girls and drive them to work and I drive them back home. That's it. There's prostitution downtown and there's prostitution on the internet but the dancers at Goldfinger consider themselves to be artists. Our women are on another level. We don't offer erotic massage, there's no prostitution, nothing."
