AP is reporting:
A fire on Thursday burned through the roof of The Body Shop, a landmark West Hollywood strip club mentioned in a MÖTLEY CRÜE hit.
The blaze was reported at about 6:46 a.m. Thursday at the one-story club on Sunset Boulevard, the Los Angeles County Fire Department said.
Firefighters don't believe anyone was in the building at the time of the fire and were investigating its cause.
It took about an hour to douse the fire, which was mainly confined to the attic, fire inspector Frank Garrido said. One firefighter suffered a minor injury.
The Body Shop, which has been in operation since the 1960s and bills itself as the longest running strip club in Los Angeles, is one of several clubs mentioned in the 1980s Mötley Crüe anthem to the strip clubs of America, 'Girls, Girls, Girls'.
