AI Summary
This bill amends Tennessee's laws regarding adult-oriented performances. It creates a new offense for a person who engages in an "adult cabaret performance" on public property or in a location where the performance could be viewed by someone who is not an adult. The bill defines "adult cabaret entertainment" as adult-oriented performances that are harmful to minors, such as those featuring topless dancers, strippers, or similar entertainers. The bill also defines an "entertainer" as someone who provides such adult-oriented performances, regardless of whether a fee is charged or they are an employee or independent contractor. The bill preempts any conflicting local ordinances and prevents local governments from enacting future conflicting rules. Violations of the new offense are punishable as misdemeanors or felonies.
