From L.A. to FLA: Octomom Promoting Her Sex Video By Stripping at West Palm Beach Club [UPDATED]
Florida, she's all yours: The most infamous mother of 14 who can't afford her house payments is schlepping to the other coast to promote her solo (read: masturbation) sex video.
Nadya "Octomom" Suleman will be appearing for a few nights in July at T's Lounge in West Palm Beach...as a stripper, according to the Huffington Post.
That's right, you lucky Floridians! Well, luck is relative:
And while T's Lounge features all-nude strippers, Suleman will remove only her top and will not be available for “private performances" in the club's champagne room.

But Angelenos, if you haven't had your fill of Octomom yet, she says she's got a ton of appearances lined up to coincide with the mid-June release of her adult film, and that means she might taking some of it off locally, too.
Um, yay?
Let's just hope she takes her cash and uses it to keep up her mortgage payments and the plumbing in her La Habra home.
UPDATE June 7, 2:20PM TMZ reports that Octomom has cancelled her stripping gig "because she thinks club staffers are talking smack about her." Suleman withdrew from the deal Wednesday morning after learning of an offensive interview conducted with a bartender at the club. The barman reportedly said "...it was only a matter of time" before the mother started stripping," adding, "She must be a little crazy, normal people don't have that many children."
