(Amargosa Valley, NV) Grand Theft Auto (GTA) 3D and HD Era Games (GTA III through GTA V) let you pick up a courtesan, pay for their services, then attack, shoot, or run them over with your vehicle to recover your cash. In video games and in movies and on TV, sex workers are treated as punching bags or punchlines. This is something many men learn when they’re young and plays into the stigma against sex workers, something the Cosmic Kittens at the sci-fi-themed, full-service, world-famous legal brothel Alien Cathouse deal with on a regular basis.

Brothel workers face a lot of sex work stigma since their jobs are in real life, as opposed to OnlyFans models who are mainly online and porn stars who film for studios or make their own content and generally deal with the stigma online, at trade shows, or sadly from their friends and families. Brothel workers get it from those sources as well as clients. But no matter what type of sex work you do, sex work is work and no more or less legitimate than any other type of labor in a capitalist society.

“Working in a brothel is a real job with real regulations/rules set by the state and the house, but we’re like entrepreneurs setting our own prices; all negotiations don’t end in bookings, and we have the right to refuse service to any customer,” says Emily Marie.

“Many courtesans get a higher-quality man than in the dating pool and get paid for it. Some people think sex work is immoral and then judge people for buying it. No one would do this work if there wasn’t a demand for it,” says Jade Maxine.

“People think we’re like a one-dimensional character on Law & Order SVU, but we’re real women with real jobs trying to rise above the stigma in the media that has people’s minds already made up about us. But when they come to the Alien Cathouse, they realize we’re a special kind of woman making men and women feel at ease and rocking their worlds. We’re no different from them; we just have a different job and/or skill set,” continues Emily Marie.

Known as the final frontier of sexual adventure, the Alien Cathouse ladies are referred to as Cosmic Kittens. Formerly owned by Dennis Hof, they’ve been fulfilling fantasies since 1970, served over 180k satisfied customers, and continue to thrive. Just one hour from Las Vegas, the sci-fi-themed, full-service, world-famous legal brothel in the purple building is right next to the mysterious Area 51 Air Force facility, where the US captured and crashed UFOs, off Interstate 95 (soon to be I-11). Alien Cathouse has a rich history of the paranormal, built over railroad tracks and a prominent trail during the Gold Rush, where many travelers were robbed and killed, with their ghosts haunting the area, making it perfect for “Ghost Hunters” to cover for an upcoming episode.

It’s a perfect destination for a couple’s holiday, a singles trip, or a guys’ weekend, and it’s close enough to Death Valley and Area 51 to top it off, making it “The Ultimate Alien-Themed Adventure.” Facebook has groups devoted to it. Alien Cathouse has received coverage from ABC News, NBC News, Time Magazine, Vice, NPR, Gizmodo, International Business Times, Daily Star, Thrillist, MEL Magazine, ASN Lifestyle Magazine, and more. In 2026, Alien Cathouse earned a Best Brothel Worldwide nomination at the ASN Lifestyle Awards, and two Cosmic Kittens earned Best Legal Sex Worker nominations.
