Charlie Sheen In Today's (Second?) Biggest Hooker Scandal

Posted by Brian Fairbanks

 

You know that anytime a celebrity tries to get himself a bit of press using a prostitution scandal, soon enough Charlie Sheen will see his bet and double it... 

Sheen, the star of one of the unfunniest sitcoms ever to (almost) top the Nielsen ratings, is spending some of those of those big fat checks on hookers so expensive, Ashley Alexandra Dupree is gonna look like a $5 Battery Tunnel streetwalker. Sheen, according to IMDB

reportedly answered a newspaper advertisement for Nici's Girls which charges customers $25,000 per night - and placed an order for four escorts. The 42-year-old - who was accused by ex-wife Denise Richards of having an unhealthy love for prostitutes and Internet porn - reportedly paid agency owner Nici $20,000 for their services. 

This revelation, published this month in Rolling Stone, featured one hilarious David Lee Roth-style moment of celebrity self-indulgence: 

"When Nici dropped four girls off at his penthouse, she found the actor in silk pajamas with 'C. MaSheen' embroidered over the pocket. Sheen gave her a $20,000 check for the girls, and she picked them up several hours later."

This story goes on and on and you should read the rest at IMDB News. However, we'll leave you with one comment, from Sheen's publicist to the dreaded Page Six:

"This is an old, old, old story. But, if you're looking for a really good story, I heard that Joe DiMaggio and Marilyn Monroe are getting a divorce."
