Coyote Ugly owner features in new bikini calendar

After decades of selling calendars featuring her bartenders, Coyote Ugly Saloon’s founder Liliana Lovell has posed for the back cover of the 2019 edition.

Lovell donning a red bikini just after her 50th birthday and added the quote “Cheers to 25 years fueled by diet, exercise, and Bourbon.” as a nod to the brand’s 25-year anniversary.

The original bar in New York inspired the hit 2000 film Coyote Ugly starring Tyra Banks (above) and John Goodman.

Banks told People magazine last month: “I’m dying to do Coyote Ugly 2. I want to produce it.”

The Coyote Ugly concept has since expanded into a chain with outlets in Russia, Ukraine, Germany, Japan the UK and Kyrgyzstan. It features female bartenders who perform dance routines on the counter.

The Coyote Ugly calendars typically feature a diverse group of staff members that are typically aged between their early to mid twenties.

“50 is the new 30!” Lovell said. “I spent so many years thinking of diet and exercise as a means to simply ‘look good’. At 50, I looked at myself in the mirror and truly thanked my body for carrying me through life. This little 5’1′ vessel has carried me over millions of miles, held and then nursed my son for years, sheltered me from any severe sickness, and after all that, I kind of have a six-pack. Damn it, I need to be in the calendar!” 

According to a statement by Coyote Ugly, it’s “proof that you can run an international company, be an amazing mom and still show girls half their age how to ROCK a string bikini”.

The calendars are available at Coyote Ugly Saloons in the US.
