The other girls at Big Daddy Lou's Hot Lap Dance Club, in midtown, always thought Sabina Johansson, with her Swedish accent and big brown eyes, was stuck up. But in reality, a "dancer" the 23-year-old worked with at the nightclub, which was recently shuttered for promoting prostitution, tells the Post, "She was a hard worker." Even though they treated her badly, the dancer said, Sabina patiently helped all of the prostitutes every night, without complaining. "If we needed help with an outfit or curling our hair, she would help us," she reminisced. And when a ruddy Prince Charming, a lottery-winning doorman called Richie Randazzo, swept in and swept Sabina-rella off her feet, all the other girls realized: They were painfully jealous. "They're just mad because she got the $5 million doorman," the dancer said. "That's what they all dream about."*
