from www.nydailynews.com – Charlie Sheen’s sexcapade with a naked porn star in The Plaza hotel shone a light on the naughty hookups that go on every night in some of New York City’s premier hotels.
Not only do some key hotel staffers look the other way on paid sex, they make some of the encounters happen, one ex-booker told the Daily News.
“The girls establish a relationship with a bartender, a manager or the concierge,” the insider said.
If an out-of-town guest wants a paid “date” with a girl, the staffer gives her a call. “They get a commission, a kickback.”
The “Two and a Half Men” star reportedly had an arranged date with porn star Capri Anderson [pictured] at the Plaza’s Oak Bar even as his two young daughters slept in the kid-friendly Eloise suite.
A Plaza spokeswoman was shocked, shocked that hookers ever plied their trade there, telling The News, “We do not comment on our guests.”
Okay, okay, but the former booker says if you’ve ever walked through any high-end Manhattan hotel, you probably went right past these pretty young women in the lounge.
“My girls would wear Chanel, maybe a little black dress,” said former madam Kristen Davis, who’s traded in supervising working girls for running for governor.
“They were very elegant. A lot of guys who stay at the hotels go down to the bar and they’ll have a few drinks with a pretty girl. At some point, she hits him with a price. It’s an impulse buy.”
One cognoscente on all things incognito told me the young women will “hang out in the hotel bars of the Four Seasons, the W Hotel, The London and other hotels trying to hook a guy.”
Most paid sex dates don’t just happen, though. They are arranged by escort services with fancy names and websites featuring pouting, nearly naked women.
Escort services provide more bookings and safety – in return for 30% to 50% of the fee.
Sheen is not the only movie star who has used escort agencies. Pros who shared names with me listed famous actors, comedians, hip-hop moguls, baseball players, hockey stars, elected officials, well-known execs, two prime ministers and even a king.
They range from “nice” to “quirky” to “abusive” – in which case they’re blacklisted. What they’re into behind closed hotel doors spans the range of human fantasy, but a Heidi Fleiss girl once told me Sheen asked her to wear a cheerleader’s outfit.
“Regular girls go for $500 an hour,” said the former madam. “We booked porn stars for $2,000 to $3,500 an hour.”
A rep from DD Management Group, the top agency representing porn actresses, says most “high-priced escorts are usually also porn stars, models, or actresses working UTR – under the radar.
“The girls come from L.A., Miami, London, Chicago or other parts of New York and they may do a three-day ‘tour’ in Manhattan, seeing anywhere from one to six guys in one day.
“They can pull in anywhere from $5,000 to $15,000 a day.”
Insiders were skeptical Sheen “stiffed” Anderson for $12,000. “The first thing they do is take an imprint of the credit card,” one pro said.
What? They walk around with little credit card machines? “No, they’re too bulky,” the woman said. “The girls just roll their lipstick over the carbon paper to get an imprint.”
One site specializing in booking X-rated actresses for one-on-ones is Bodymiracle.com, which lists the names and photos of the stars, when they’ll be in town and hourly “appointment” rates.
One top hotel general manager says most execs do not condone prostitution, but “I can imagine that for certain clientele, this would be an amenity.”
For married guests on business in New York, he adds, “The out-of-town rule seems to apply…. As long as they do it in the privacy of their rooms and they don’t frighten the children and the horses,” it’s their business.
Davis, who wants to legalize consensual activities like escort services, couldn’t agree more.
Asked why a guy like Sheen, who’s handsome, funny and rich, would pay for sex, she laughed: “You know the old adage. You pay them to go away. And not talk.”
