An exotic dancer and model from New Zealand appeared at a Gold Coast court on assault charges today accused of throwing a glass at a Neighbours actor inside a strip club.
New Zealand-born dancer Danielle Lee, 25, appeared at Southport Magistrates Court in Queensland. Lee is accused of assaulting Neighboursactor Scott McGregor, who plays Detective Mark Brennan.
Lee, who uses the stage name Ivy at Hollywood Showgirls, had been working at the Surfers Paradise strip club on April 6 when she allegedly got into an argument with the actor, the Daily Mail reported.

Police claim Lee "picked up a glass in a fit of rage and threw it at McGregor" in the early hours of April 6.
"I know a conversation took place between the two of them, but I'm not privy to what was said - I don't know if he said something wrong or she said something wrong," he told The Courier Mail.
"But regardless of what was said… we terminated the dancer immediately. She is banned from the club."
