Of all the hand core, sensual, adult-themed topics I’ve covered for the Sideshow in the past year – including horse sex and gang bangs – I’ve yet to delve into the world of high-class prostitution rings. Until now! Thanks to N.Y. governor Eliot Spitzer (doesn’t his surname sounds like a come-in-your mouth sexual innuendo even without the call girl tie-in?), I now have reason to get hooked on the subject.
In a nutshell, on Monday March 10th Spitzer made a public apology and fessed up to his involvement as a patron in an international prostitution ring called the Emperors Club VIP (earlier today he stepped down as governor). The apology came after reports included his name as part of a prostitution ring busted by federal investigators last week.
The Emperors Club site was recently taken offline, but thanks to the hard hackers at Digital Alchemy who attempted to restore it, content from the site was salvaged. I had problems loading some of the pages, but managed to find my way to the home page message which reads:
We offer a convenient variety of services globally. Specializing in deluxe concierge, model introduction, contemporary art and investment services is our expertise. We act for a select group of educated, refined and successful international clients who give their best in all they do and who, in return, only wish to receive the best. Catering to clients who will not compromise in any area of their life.
While Spitzer’s the man in the spotlight right now, he’s only one of the seedy notables who partook in extra-curricular sextivities involving escort services and got caught. Let’s have a look at some others shall we?
