Spears' video set off a wave of backlash against Micky's West Hollywood.

On Yelp!, the establishment has plummeted to 2.5 stars and has received a deluge of negative attention.

"I'm so shocked at what happened," wrote one reviewer.

"The disgusting display of sexual harassment has me sick to my stomach. Consent is a human right. And for anyone to feel as if they can't deny someone .... In fear they'll get removed from an establishment. Is sad."

Spears argued with other employees of the bar and got his drink refunded in the video.

"I would be completely embarrassed if I was running this establishment!!!" wrote one review.

"Do not waste your time or your money."

Spears says he and his friend were removed for "endangering others" with no further qualifiers offered.

"My brand is comedy, laughter, my goal is to make you guys laugh," Spears, himself a bartender in Los Angeles, added.

"But most importantly, I use my brand to help educate, and to focus on keeping bar patrons safe. I make videos to teach everyone to keep themselves safe… and that's why I was so passionate and upset last night."

AG Pam Bondi's Brother Blames 'Rabid Partisans' After Getting Absolutely Walloped In DC Election

MAGA Republican President Donald Trump has often bragged about his overwhelming victory over Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris, claiming he won by a landslide. But while he did manage to finally win a popular vote in 2024, something he lost in 2016 and 2020, it was hardly a landslide.

About 90 million eligible, registered voters didn't bother to vote at all in 2024, while Trump garnered only ~77 million votes, VP Harris received about ~75 million—a difference of only ~2 million which is less than the population of Trump's hometown of Queens, New York City.

Kristi Noem's Past Views On National Guard Come Back To Bite Her After She Backs Trump Amid LA Protests

California Governor Gavin Newsom called out the hypocrisy of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem after sharing a clip from last year showing she'd once criticized the Biden administration for considering deploying the National Guard when Democrats suggested it as a response to Texas' immigration crackdown at the time.

That's noteworthy because Noem has made an about-face, defending President Donald Trump's decision to deploy the National Guard to Los Angeles amid ongoing protests in response to his administration's immigration raids by claiming he'd taken this drastic step "for the safety of this community ... to keep peace."
