The Danish nightclub that will pay you to watch porn

And to think they said you’d never amount to anything watching TV in your bedroom

Most people have always presumed that Hornsleth Bar was named after the owner, the controversial Danish conceptual artist.

But now it appears the ‘horn’ might actually refer to something else – and it’s good news for the vast majority of men.

After all, there are few jobs nearly all men are qualified to do, but this is undoubtedly one at which everyone has a shot, reports Ekstra Bladet.

Strictly short-term
Nightclub chain owner Kristian von Hornsleth, never one to shy away from a media-friendly gimmick, is looking for a new part-time employee for his nightclub in Aarhus where the main responsibility will be watching porn films.

The short-term contract, just 20 hours a week until the end of May, comes with a workplace closed off from the rest of the Hornsleth Bar office.

An erotic soundtrack
The successful applicant, said von Hornsleth, will be charged with making a soundtrack to complement the “various erotic art in the toilets” comprising “different sounds depending on the time and mood”.

According to the owner, there have already been a flood of applications. Apply via aarhus@hornslethbar.dk if you think you’ve got what it takes.
