‘I served in US Air Force — now I sell pints in a bikini and get bigger tips’
A woman who claims she served with the US Air Force now moonlights as a bikini bartender.
Cheyanne Long, 23, also revealed she gets “bigger tips” when her customers find out she served her country.
The Californian told The New York Post that customers wrongly assume she was kicked out of the military, or only served a couple of months before getting a dishonourable discharge.

Long says she served active duty in the Air Force for four years while stationed at Lackland Air Force Base and Los Angeles Air Force Base.
She said: "I never once got in trouble through basic training all the way ’til the completion of my contract. I’m overall a good girl really.”
Long, who goes by @shyshypan online, recently compared her “respected” job in the military to her “unrespected” occupation as a bartender in a TikTok video, where she showcased her camouflage uniform and a barely-there bikini.
While admitting she misses her “double life,” the aspiring starlet seems to be having the time of her life in skimpy swimwear at her new gig.
“Bringing up I was in the military for bigger tips,” she wrote on one clip while wearing a camouflage string bikini with a matching hat, adding that it “works every time.”
Long, who has stockpiled nearly 10,000 followers on TikTok, claims to have completed her military contract in March, calling this her “fun lil freedom job.”
She told The Post she was on active duty when she devised a plan to save up money before her contract expired.
Inspired by the late Anna Nicole Smith’s career path, Long decided to become a stripper.
But it didn’t go as planned — she says she was denied from three strip clubs, which she “didn’t even think” was possible.
Feeling “defeated,” she told The Post that she tried to do bottle service at clubs, but “hated it and quit.”
When Distractions Lounge in Huntington Beach hired her, she finally found the perfect side hustle while working toward her Hollywood dreams.
Now, she’s “saving money, having fun at my freedom job, getting my VA disability for mainly PTSD and auditioning to start up my dream career of acting,” she told The Post.
Long said her favourite part of the job is how it contrasts with her time in the military, proclaiming she feels famous because of the attention.
“I even have a customer that made two shirts with my face on them,” she said. “I really feel like a celebrity while working in there.”
