Competition for Naked Cowboy

Naked Cowboy is acting like a  more and more like major corporation every day, sending out cease and desist letters and threatening lawsuits whenever someone else wants to strip down on Times Square.

Now he’s asking 50-year-old Sandy Kane, a.k.a. Naked Cowgirl, to pay him a franchising fee for use of the concept. Click here to read about the battle in the New York Post. Would you believe there’s already another Naked Cowgirl who is paying him a fee?

How much would you pay for the priviledge of standing nearly nude on Times Square. Naked Cowboy wants Naked Cowgirl to pay him $500 a month. I guess he needs a clothing allowance for all those tighty whities he’s going through.

I wrote a column on Naked Cowboy in 2008 when he was in the middle of a lawsuit with Mars Inc. for dressing up an M&M as a Naked Cowboy Candy on its Times Square billboard. Click here to read column.
