Bada Bing! is a fictional strip club from the HBO drama television series ''The Sopranos.'' It was a key location for events in the series, named for the catchphrase "bada bing", a phrase popularized by James Caan's character Sonny Corleone in ''The Godfather''.〔(Vanity Fair: The Godfather Wars )〕 The popularization of the fictional club benefited the real-life go-go bar where scenes were filmed. The Bada Bing is loosely based on ''Wiggles'', a strip club owned by New Jersey mobster Vincent Palermo before it was shut down.〔Wild Tales from the Police Blotter, by C. J. Sullivan. 2008.〕 Strippers at the Bada Bing were portrayed by extras including Elektra, Justine Noelle, Kelly Madison Kole, Luiza Liccini, Marie Athanasiou, Nadine Marcelletti, Rosie Ciavolino and Sonia Ortega. The "Bada Bing Girls" appeared in a photo spread in the August 2001 issue of ''Playboy'' magazine. Presumably in an attempt at humor, the Federal Aviation Agency has two way points in North Central New Jersey called BADDA and BINGG on the instrument approach to runway 23 at Morristown Municipal Airport. == Usage and effect on the series == The Bing is owned and chiefly operated by Silvio Dante, Tony Soprano's consigliere, in Lodi, New Jersey. Tony's office is in one of the back rooms of the Bing,〔(Bada Bing! Saying goodbye to Tony Soprano ) ''The Economist'', June 7, 2007〕 and the DiMeo crime family often conducts their business either in the bar or in the office. The club's title is a stereotypical Italian-American expression, also rendered as "bada bing bada boom" or "bada boom bada bing". "Bada bi; Bada ban" is an expression in Malinke, meaning "it is done, it is good," so it is possible that the phrase "bada bing, bada boom" may have been picked up originally from African-Americans by Italian immigrants. The use of Bada Bing as the name of the club and elsewhere in the series popularized the catchphrase such that it was added to the 2003 Oxford English Dictionary as an exclamation to emphasize that something will happen effortlessly and predictably.〔(Oxford 'bada bings' its latest dictionary ), ABC News Online, August 21, 2003, Accessed August 29, 2007〕 Bada bing is imitative of the sound of a drumroll or rim shot, or may also derive from the "bada-bing" sound effect that James Caan's character, Sonny Corleone, makes to describe an up-close shooting in ''The Godfather''.〔(MP3 of the Godfather scene )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bada Bing」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
