Daniels took to the stage in Florida days after suing Trump in a bid to break her silence over alleged affair
THE porn star who was allegedly paid to stay quiet over an affair with Donald Trump has been pictured stripping in Florida.
Stormy Daniels, 38, took to the pole at the Solid Gold strip club in Pompano Beach just days after suing the US president in a bid to "break her silence" over the alleged incident.
She whipped the crowd into a frenzy in a very racy, sparkling red dress before removing her clothes completely.
The adult film star - real name Stephanie Clifford - was showered with dollar bills as she danced energetically on stage.
Trump's attorney Michael Cohen claims he - not Trump - paid Daniels $130,000 (£93,000) to sign a non-disclosure agreement.
But a watchdog group has now asked the Justice Department and the Office of Government Ethics to investigate whether the secret payment violated federal law.
They claim the agreement made prior to the 2016 presidential election may have been illegal because Donald Trump did not list it on his financial disclosure forms.
Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics argues that Cohen's payment may have been a loan to Trump and, if so, needed to be disclosed.
In her lawsuit, Daniels said she was paid off as part of a nondisclosure agreement to ensure she didn't share details of an extramarital affair with Trump.
Clifford sought to invalidate their agreement in order to "set the record straight."
In the suit, she alleges that Trump "at all times has been fully aware of the negotiations... the existence and terms of the Hush Agreement, the payment of $130,000, (and) the use of (Essential Consultants LLC) as a conduit."
CREW argues that Trump's 2016 financial disclosure form did not include any reference to Cohen or Essential Consultants LLC, and that if the allegations are true, it should have.
In a letter, they say that Cohen is required under the New York Rules of Professional Conduct to keep Trump informed about "all material developments", including settlements, with Clifford.
Cohen said that "neither the Trump Organization nor the Trump campaign was a party to the transaction with Ms. Clifford, and neither reimbursed me for the payment, either directly or indirectly".
The White House has said that none of the allegations are true and that the Clifford case has already been won in arbitration.
The White House and the Trump Organization did not respond to requests for comment on Friday.
The Justice Department declined to comment.
"It is mere common sense that there is no way that an attorney would engage in a negotiation finalization and payment pursuant to an agreement and not disclose it to the client," said Clifford's attorney, Michael Avenatti.
