Criticism and controversy
Lawsuit
In September 2010 the owner of the Hard Rock brand filed a lawsuit against the company which acquired the rights to the name of the hotel, Morgans Hotel Group, stating that the show has damaged the company name by associating it with "drunken debauchery, acts of vandalism, sexual harassment, (and) violence." Despite the lawsuit, truTV ran the third season. Morgans Hotel Group argued that "This show and the lively behavior it portrays have already been on the air for two years... it has brought enormous popularity to the Hard Rock brand.
Undercover Drug Sting
In 2010, undercover police officers investigated security guards and VIP hosts who were allegedly selling drugs to guests and allowing (at least on one occasion) an undercover officer to smoke marijuana in a public restroom after bribing a security guard. These stings occurred at the now-closed Body English and Vanity nightclubs also on the Hard Rock Hotel property and featured on the show. Hard Rock Hotel has reportedly fired all employees listed in the complaint, and agreed to pay a $700,000 fine.
