Stars That Started as Prostitutes

She looks like shit in that pic

Channing Tatum started out as a male stripper.

Why is everyone looking at me?

Ryan Phillipe was also a hustler.

Roseanne was a prostitute.

Marie Dressler

MacKenzie Phillips as a teen when John and Michelle would go off for weeks on their hippie business, leaving her home alone without money.

It wouldn't surprise me if Madonna turned some tricks back in her early NYC days.

I wondered about Madonna also, especially with so many nude photo sessions taken in the male photographers homes. A 20 year old girl comes over and gets naked for a hundred bucks and allows pictures. With someone as sexually charged as Madonna it's hard to believe nothing sexual was involved.

That would be hot if Ryan Phillipe was really a male hooker.

Denise Richards, I think that's how she met Charlie.

Eldergay favorite and legend Billie Holiday.

[quote] With someone as sexually charged as Madonna it's hard to believe nothing sexual was involved.

Maybe there was if she liked them but for some people having a girl come over and get naked so they can take photos would be enough.

Tobey Maguire. Or so I've heard...

Clint Eastwood

Thomas Jane?

Joan Crawford.

Laurence Harvey.

Heard Michelle Pfeiffer was .

Yeah, and she was expensive!

Wouldn't it be easier to list the stars who didn't start as prostitutes?

JOAN CRAWFORD!

99.9% of them.

Trudie Styler, wife of Sting. She was an escort at some Arab club before hooking up with Peter O'Toole and then striking gold with Sting.

Not sure if she counts as a "star." On a side note, she is morphing into Joel Grey, which is pretty wild....

Trudie

And nobody has mentioned Marilyn Monroe or James Dean!

Don Johnson

Jan Michael Vincent

Channing Tatum

Do we have validation on Thomas Jane?

Jane gave an interview where he said something about letting men buy him sandwiches and about experimenting with his sexuality.

But he was also starring in Hung, a show about a male prostitute at the time and it may have been a not-very-well-thought out publicity stunt

Clark Gable, if offering himself to be orally serviced for parts counts as prostitution.

Just to be clear, as long as you fuck but don't exchange money immediately after it's not prostitution right ???

Didn't Warren Beatty once offer himself to Tennessee Williams in gratitude for being cast?

Courtney Love Hole was both a stripper and a pro in Portland. Portland pros were not known for their elan back in the 80s.

Bruce Davison gave an interview - this was about 1976-77 - about ho when he was in college, he briefly tried being a hustler to make ends meet, but that "apparently my blowjobs weren't very good," so he bombed as a hooker.

Dennis Cole aka Mr Jacklyn Smith

Corey Haim . Started and ended

Russell Brand prostituted himself to support his drug habit.

There's gossip that Jane ran (still runs for all I know) a male prostitute ring out of his house.

Wasn't Thomas Jane married to Patricia Arquette?

I love people ask about the Thomas Jane thing rather than taking two seconds to look up his interviews about it.

It was the depression and I had to eat!

Shirley MacLaine as a young woman in Manhattan.

Tom Selleck. Late 60s - very early 70s. Extremely high end, $10k for a weekend kind of thing (and this is 1970s money)

It's well known that Madonna slept with DJs in NY to get her music played.

Jessica does not surprise me because it was before the web and at least she did not have to waitress. She always has been weird about her past. Embarrassed that she was a Wilhelmina model. Who cares?

For most women the business is gross.

Kirstie Alley was a prostitute, I recall reading it in a Liz Smith column decades ago.

Trump's wives

Thomas Jane said this

[quote]"You know, when I was a kid out here in L.A., I was homeless, I didn't have any money and I was living in my car. I was 18. I wasn't averse to going down to Santa Monica Boulevard and letting a guy buy me a sandwich. Know what I mean?"

Then he sort of walked it back, but his retraction wasn't actual clear at all

[quote]"In the interviews that I did, I never said I was a prostitute," Jane says in a new interview with addiction and recovery website The Fix. "I was talking about my [early] time in Hollywood: I said that I'd had a sexually adventurous time and I was trying to relate that to how I play a prostitute on TV—trying to relate my experience to my character's experience—and well, people heard what they wanted to hear." "I suppose 'sexually adventurous youth' wasn't as much of a headline grabber."

Call it "sexually adventurous", but his first statement makes it obvious he wasn't opposed to sleeping with people who would take care of him.

As is always mentioned on threads like this Brad Pitt was a kept boy of Thom Racina.

Sean William Scott has been the favorite of a lot of wealthy gay elite. Was one of DEN's pet boys, was kept by Don Geffen for a while.

Ryan Seacrest was a play thing of Merv Griffin.

In "Madonna Rising" on VH1 in the late 90s, Madonna and Rupert Everett toured some of the places she used to live. He asked about the nude photos, and she said the photographers would invite her back to their "studios" and she would "pose for them privately" - then they both started laughing. It seemed like she was owning up to something more going on at the time.

Tammy Cruise 1980 NYC..... explains a lot.

Sophia Loren. That's how she met Ponti

I wouldn't be surprised if David Geffen and Tom Cruise had something going on when Geffen produced "Risky Business" and Tom's career took off.

R49 oh yeah, and there was another documentary where Camile Barbone, her first manager, says Madonna has a reputation of using men, but she got used by a lot of men, and that she didn't have to "do that any more." Yeah, but's it too big of a coincidence she was the "girlfriend" of two of the biggest DJs in NYC. Also, Steve Bray say that Madonna always "relied on the kindness" of strangers with a big smirk on his face. But he backtracked and said he didn't think anything was going on because she would have had more money.

R44 it is kind of sad, because they probably didn't have much of choice in those days. Maybe even now

I hate to burst your fantasy of Ryan Phillipe as a hustler, but he is from a good family from Wilmington, Delaware, and I can't believe that he ever had to turn tricks for money while he was a struggling actor.

I think that happens to kids from the midwest who hop a Greyhound to Hollywood with $100 in their pocket.

R52 Actually the notorious chicken hawk Franco Zeffirelli was the first to make Tammy beg on his hands and knees.

Richard Gere

There are numerous rumors about both Sophia Loren and Audrey Hepburn doing whatever it took to survive in war-torn Europe during and after World War II.

Don't know the gossip about Hepburn but Loren was a prostitute and Ponti was a customer

Paris Hilton and Kin Khardasian will still turn a trick for big money, if there is a buyer who wants to ride

JLaw slept with casting agents - does that count?

Lindsay (sad)

Wow, R24, Trudie Styler and Peter O'Toole? Mind-boggling.

R54 - I was thinking that poster confused the actual Ryan Phillipe with the character he played in the movie "54"

DLers have a way of blurring those lines

Now I wonder if Janens Caan was a john of Jessica. Some strange pictures of them floating around. All of her roles now make perfect sense

Finger me

This is DL. Every celebrity in recorded history whored themselves out. We just "know" these things.

Ryan Phillippe has been a working actor since he was 18. He never has to be a hustler.

It is the world's oldest profession (actors were often prostitutes). Heidi Klum, Sharon Stone, Michelle Pfeiffer, Pam Anderson, on and on

[r53] it is kind of sad, because they probably didn't have much of choice in those days.

Talking about Jessica Lange? It was the 1970's, not like she was eating in soup kitchens and selling apples...

Rupert Everett and he wrote a novel about it.

A lot of b and c actresses have sold out to oil billionaires in the Middle East.

Mariah Carey. Her sister was not the only one hooking

Demi Moore

Zac Efron

R72, what exactly is going on in those pictures? What is the context?

I actually have no clue... Queerty doesn't seem to really know either.

pretty much all of Warhol's and Larry Clark's finds, eh?

Margaret Cho

but she's also likely to announce she was the first woman president soon, too.

Not a star, but Obama seems like he was a man whore.

so why would zefron prostitute himself? is he that money hungry? it's not like he's starving.

Some of these people may have prostituted themselves for 1) access to very good and classier drug dealers

2) very good drugs

3) access to people who know a lot about their profession

4) invites to better parties and hanging out with more successful people

5) want to screw sexually experienced people. I wanted to learn how to really really fuck in my 20's so went out with a hot mid-30's investment banker. He never gave me cash but we had a lot of lux fun and he really showed me all the ropes. Why would a young actor feel any different?

Casting couch isn't primarily a direct cash exchange.

Henry Irving

Herbert Beerbohm Tree

Sarah Bernhardt

Noel Gallagher

R78 Who knows but that is not straight behaviour. It's very whorish. You can bet your bottom dollar Miss Efron had his face covered in cum that week.

R79 Exactly. It seems like most of DL think actors are the creme of the crop with the most money and best connections. Not so. They will do anything to reach the upper echelons of society.

I sucked dick for coke, but that's not the same.

Pretty much all of them OP.

If we're including kept boys, then it's pretty widely said that Rock Hudson kept Lee Majors for years.

[quote]I actually have no clue... Queerty doesn't seem to really know either.

Oh yeah, Zac Efron and Michelle Rodriguez's drug bender getaway with that Italian businessmen. We talked about it at the time.

I mean Zac Efron "mysteriously" spent the holidays with Bruce Willis on the Turk and Caicos one year.

He has experience (no doubt much more we don't know about it) giving it up to older men.

Anyone "discovered" by Lou Pearlman.

The Lou Pearlman situation is rough. I mean it isn't like these guys wanted to, but if you worked with Lou Pearlman who was THE kingmaker at he you had no choice, it was made very clear what was required. Usually just one guy was the "sacrificial lamb" and had it the worse.

Eyes are really rolling on this thread. JL was not ever a prostitute, among others mentioned on this thread.

Jennifer slept for parts. You call it hard work, I call it sex for favors. Would you let DOR or HW drool on you? Whatever gives a girl or boy a leg up

Noel Gallagher????? Who would pay for that?? Also I'd be afraid he'd hit me.

r80 I thought Gallagher was a runner at the hacienda, and that's how he got his start, and his pocket money. Where did you hear that he put out?

Norma Shearer, but only after she married Irving Thalberg.

We LOVE pussy

R57, didn't Sophia Loren talk about this at one point? I could have sworn I read somewhere that she gave a very candid interview in regards to this. Allegedly her mom pimped both Sophia and her sister out when they were kids. That's very tragic. This wasn't done because someone was trying to get a leg up in the business. These women had nothing to eat.

I thought Ryan Phillipe was a Du Pont. There's about 3000 heirs running around.

That's really surprising @R24 She's quite ugly

R93, yes we GET your meaning. It's just no use harping on the Straight Mantra:

"Society sees something wrong with any man who doesn't like pussy".

You don't want them to repeat that mantra? You're STUCK on that mantra WITH them, when you use it to mock them. Guess what, that's what STRAIGHTS do to people who aren't straight.

"Ha-ha! Not into pussy = Something's wrong!"

But liking pussy IS social license to live. When you like pussy, you're allowed to say you like men too, even when not up any of your holes or IN any man's holes. It's called Mancrush. Straight men getS to have it. Gays are LIARS if they have "womancrush".

Do you see how the scale is tipping now?

Alicia Vikander

You bitches are slipping. Almost 100 posts in and no vicious grammar correction? It's "Stars WHO Started as Prostitutes", OP.

r79 I don't think the OP meant people who fucked their way up in the entertainment industry. I think s/he meant those were actual prostitutes, who booked with an agency/madam or were kept like Alain Delon. Gossip on the former is welcome anyway though.

r89 God help me, but I've got a douchebag daddy fetish. I'd be happy to let DOR drool on me; I think he's hot in a nerdy, douchebag way. Same with Michael Bay, who was fucking stunning when he was around 30-45 yrs old. HW, no. He's beyond gross and he has that Don Simpson they'll never find the bodies look.

That Burt Lancaster pic @ R41 looks like he put a merkin on his private parts. He never looked like he had much of a bulge.

Wow. You will sleep with some ugly trade.

More please about Brad Pitt and his rich daddy

[quote]More please about Brad Pitt and his rich daddy

Where you born yesterday? Just google Brad Pitt and Thom Racina, there has been a lot written about it. Most notably, even though Thom has been nice and never mentioned anything sexual, Brad Pitt has never admitted that he lived with him though there are pictures.

Yoko Ono

Whoopi

Natalie Cole

Anna Nicole Smith

Louise Brooks

William Haines

Barbara Peyton. Started as a prostitute, and ended as one.

More about Burt Lancaster being a hoe. Were those naked pics of him out there when he was a star? Did he ever comment on them?

When she was still just Sister Theresa, Mother Theresa was famous around the whorehouses of Calcutta for her affinity for double penetration.

Lancaster had bad teeth that he fixed only after he started in movies. Looks like in this pic @ R41 he has teeth fixed already.

Who's That Girl?

Who's that gurleen?

nobody would be surprised if Pitt was a whore

I remember Fran Leibowitz said back when Brad Pitt was first becoming a thing, "I don't get it. He looks like a trick to me."

Rumor was Billy Pitt was arrested in 1980 for "indecency" with a John in a cop sting of the bathrooms at Malibu State Beach. Racina bailed him out.Pitt commented that it was just "mooning" but the arrest record has long since been expunged.

Sophia Loren

Merle Oberon

The reality is even though most of them have never worked as official prostitutes, A TON of actors have fooled around with someone solely for the sake of helping their career. It is silly to pretend otherwise, that is a big part of the entertainment industry.

R112 Brad Pitt started at the University of Missouri in 1982, and moved to LA in 1986.

Vin Diesel

Jim Morrison

77 Sunset Strip's Edd Byrnes ("Kookie"), who also starred as DJ Vince Fontaine in the movie Grease, admitted in a later-life autobiography that he was a Santa Monica Blvd. street hustler.

a lot of people didn't have anything to eat back then, R94 but not everybody pimped themselves or their kids out. but the family business worked out well for Loren because her customer was Ponti and he made her an actress.

R65 Ryan Phillippe had a few lean years between OLTL and getting enough regular acting roles to support himself. Being a call boy helped to pay the bills.

Believe it or not, and I was around then so I know it's true -- Chuck Norris was known as Butt Fuck Chuck when he first showed up in H'wood. He'd do anything to get ahead. Then when he got there, he'd do anything to hurt anyone else who wanted to get ahead....

R121 No wonder he's a NRA nut and a Republican.

I've always wondered if Depp had to do anyone to survive. The official story was he was living out of his car with a friend in Florida or something. Is there more to the story or did he have connections?

Vivian Vance.

The DP queen!

Nancy 'crazy snatch' Spungeon.

Regarding Sophia Loren. A little googling will reveal a childhood where she was raised in poverty by a prostitute mother. Her grand mother prostituted Sophia out from a very young age. It is rumored this is how she met her husband. Extremely traumatic and damaged childhood. Such a stunning woman.

Audrey Hepburn played a prostitute in BREAKFAST AT TIFFANYS. She was a ballet dancer before the war, and worked for the Belgian Resistance during the war. There is no source which says she was a prostitute.

Sophia is still so beautiful, but as a young woman, no one could touch her, except, apparently, if they had a ton of money.

Photo shows it takes one to know one:

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

I did just learn that her parents were early Nazi sympathizers, which makes AH even more interesting, as she was fighting against the Nazis during the war.

Extra points for knowing the Mitford sisters. I wonder if they knew it was rumored Unity had Hitler's baby. Died from a self-inflicted gunshot years later. Was also likely a whore for Hitler, but left when he chose Eva Braun as his public one.

Hepburn's father, Joseph, who abandoned her when she was a little girl, and her mother, Ella, were members of the British Union of Fascists. In 1935, they toured Germany with other members of the organization, including the notorious Mitford sisters.

R126, as another poster said, the family business worked out for Loren because she met Ponti. The rumor is that Ponti was the mothers customer and then passed him to Sophia. Sophia milked him for all he was worth. And R128 is right. Nobody could touch Sophia unless they had a ton of money

Thanks R131.

Did anyone else see Tony Yazbeck yesterday on Kathy Lee and Hoda? He is hot and seemed slightly nervous hosting one of their "game show" segments where Hoda asked white trash in the NBC store questions..

R133 Are you suggesting one of the guys could have blurted out 'Hey I fucked Tony Yazbeck for 10 bucks'?

June Allyson owns this thread.

Abe Vigoda.

ALLEGEDLY, the rumor was that in HAROLD ROBBINS' best seller THE CARPETBAGGERS which was (allegedly) based on the life of HOWARD HUGHES that the character of Jennie Denton the prostitute who becomes a top actress was suppose to be a thinly disguised JANE RUSSELL.

SERIOUS QUESTION:

So then are most of them prostitutes when you consider how many of them early on had to drop their drawers or hike up their skirts in order to get those promising film parts ?

No names please .................

" Mr. Cohn, you want me to put that ugly little pecker where ? ? "

Socialite, now deceased, unfortunately: Lyn Fisher Sheresky Revson aka Mrs. Charles Revson

Who the hell would pay to have sex with June Allyson?

"Roseanne was a prostitute."

Sure she was! Like anybody would pay to fuck HER. I think Whoopi Goldberg said she also hooked early on. I don't believe that, either. I think even the most desperate trick wouldn't pay a dime to fuck her.

Nancy Spungen was never a "star." She was just a pathetic groupie who became infamous due to her association with the equally pathetic Sid Vicious.

It's been well documented that Marilyn Monroe would make extra money by being a "call girl" when she was a struggling starlet.

Louise Brooks didn't start out as a prostitute, but after her movie career ended she descended even further into alcoholism and had to dabble in prostitution to make ends meet.

Remember the classic Joan Crawford quote when asked about the casting couch: "It's better than the cold hard floor."

Dorothy Comingore ended up becoming a prostitute. Her appearance in Citizen Kane sealed her fate.

The rumors ARE NOT TRUE.

Margaret Cho,but is anyone really surprised by this?

R117 details about Jim Morrison please.

Pitt was Thom Racina's house boy.

Regarding Audrey Hepburn.

I don't think you are responsible for your parent's actions, my parents were conservatives yet I have never been anything else but a staunch progressive liberal.

Jessica Lange was a college student in MN when she met her first husband in her teens. They moved to Europe and got married when she was 22. They divorced a few years later and she moved to NYC. She started modeling (roomed with Jerry Hall and Grace Jones) and waitressed in the Village. She was cast in King King when she was 27.

When do we think she worked as a prostitute?

R142 if you ever watched any documentaries on prostitution, the majority are NOT attractive. The streetwalking junkie types anyway.

[quote] Pitt was Thom Racina's house boy.

There was gossip going around that Pitt kept a boy of his own, worked as a gardener I believe, in his backyard guest house. I'm assuming this was before Jennifer & Angelina.

If we are talking about actors who became prostitutes AFTER making it big....Lindsay Lohan. Supposedly Nicole Scherzinger as well

Ivana Trump

Melania Trump

Donald Trump is a whore....well, okay, a famewhore

bump

Someone posted here that Axl Rose was a hustler and that one of his clients was.....David Geffen.

Barbara Billingsley aka June Cleaver She was so into black men that when she first moved to Hollywood, she insisted that white men who asked her out needed to pay her for sex because she really wasn't attracted to them sexually. This was quite scandalous for the time and in her biography it states that before Leave it to Beaver fame she fucked none other than Sammy Davis Jr. Of course she was one of many many white female (and some male) stars and up and comers in Hollywood who experienced his massive black cock. It also explains the inside joke in the movie Airplane. Everyone on set knew her secret "preference" which is why she was cast as the older white lady who could "speak jive".

Whats the deal with Joan Crawford, was she really a teenage hooker? also I heard a story that when she first arrived in Holywood she went to a producer's office and stripped for him offering herself, when he told her he was not the producer she needed to see, and that that man was in an office on the lower floor, JC left, without even bothering to put her clothes back on. Haha it's probably not true, but is a great story!

[quote]Believe it or not, and I was around then so I know it's true -- Chuck Norris was known as Butt Fuck Chuck when he first showed up in H'wood. He'd do anything to get ahead.

I don't know about that nickname, but yes, I actually stumbled across an old reference to rumors that Norris was, er, bending over backwards to get into movies back in the 1970s. David Carradine apparently once told an interviewer that Norris, even with all the help he got from Bruce Lee back in the late 60s and early 70s, couldn't catch a break until he hopped onto the casting couch for someone involved at Cannon Group, which lead to his action movie career.

This was all from a scan of an old skeevy gossip magazine in the 1980s that I just CANNOT find online right now, so take it with a grain of salt.

Robert Sepulveda, Jr.

If Loren was a prostitute, and Ponti knew it, why did he marry her?

It true I am star.

But I was model. That different, no yes?

Ponti used pros, so he clearly didn't mind or care. Maybe he fell in love and wanted to save her, how very Pretty Woman.

Ponti knew. He was her customer. Like R165 said, he probably didn't care that Sofia Loren was a hooker. He always did seem like a slimy asshole anyway

Washed up hasbeen Lady Gaga. Performing in Burlesque shows led her to turn tricks and try to fund her career and network. A 21st century version of Madonna if you will.

Gary Cooper and Clark Gable first started out as whores when they came to Hollywood. The rumor is that Gable got George Cukor fired from "Gone with the Wind" because Cukor either had hired Gable back in the day or had a close friend who had hired Gable back in the day, and Gable was terrified of being called out on it. This is why in "Hail Caesar!" the George Clooney character based on both Gable and Cooper is revealed at the end of the movie to have turned tricks for men to get into the business.

Al Pacino has admitted he acted as a prostitute when he lived in Italy in the 60s, although he also claimed that he only rented himself out to women, which is ridiculous. (Women hire out male prostitutes so rarely that anyone would starve if he limited himself only to female clients.)

I've always thought the best explanation for all the gossip around Tom Cruise is not that he is gay but that the rumors that he turned tricks when he first moved to Hollywood (before he hit it big with Taps) are true. It would explain why he has never been reliably caught out with people claiming they've slept with him (the way Travolta had been), but why that cloud around him never seems to disperse and why he becomes so hysterical if people suggest it to him. I think he probably whored himself out when he first moved to Hollywood, and then has spent the rest of his life panicking that people would find out.

[quote] Al Pacino has admitted he acted as a prostitute when he lived in Italy in the 60s, although he also claimed that he only rented himself out to women, which is ridiculous. (Women hire out male prostitutes so rarely that anyone would starve if he limited himself only to female clients.)

I always thought the same thing; sounds highly unlikely. Unless he was a "kept man" and not really a prostitute, there's just no way he didn't turn tricks with men.

R168 I'm replying to your Tom Cruise bit. There is no way in hell he isn't gay. He's been involved in way too many PR romances and sham marriages, even by Scientology standards. Also he's been linked to so many men, even going back to the early eighties. Was he a prostitute. Definitely. There was no way his actor cousin could provide him with an advantage in nepotism. If his childhood is to be believed he was poor and fame hungry, the classic recipe for whoring. It was posted above about him and Geffen and they are still very affectionate all these decades later.

Travolta has only been caught out because he's unintelligent and lazy with a voracious appetite for cock. He also gets off on public cruising and being a shameless, brazen cock hound harassing gym bunnies and masseurs. It's half the thrill and with that reckless behaviour it was inevitable that he would be so blatantly exposed.

R169 I could probably believe the kept man BS in America, but not in Italy in the 60s. Pacino's romanticised his whoring to new levels.

Remember when Tammy went postal after being squirted. He freaked right out because it brought back all those private memories of those tricks that used his face like a cum rag, not to mention all of his gay relationships.

R168 I heard Tammy was active as a hu$tler in NYC before he became an actor. Is there any truth to this?

PROSTITUTE?

Oh Thank God! I thought you said PROTESTANT!

Ponti liked to feel omnipotent. Drunk Carlo Almighty just argued with De Laurentis that he could make a movie star from a prostitute. He did. And named her (forget about "Marta Toren"!) by association with the brand of his favorite cigarettes.

"If Loren was a prostitute, and Ponti knew it, why did he marry her? "

r99 What about Delon? I always heard about his mafia ties.

Jerry Hall was one of Madame Claude's girls when she arrived in Paris as a teenager. I think it's VERY likely that Marianne Faithful got her drug money from hooking after she broke up with Mick Jagger and became a junkie; she admitted in her autobiography she slept with her dealer in exchange for drugs.

Jerry Hell is uglier than Hillary!

Pacino had a big cock? What?

Drew Carey...and before you laugh:

strippers are wholly different from prostitutes, dumb cocksuckers.

Channing Tatum

I've seen provocative pictures of Cruise from before he was a star. He's dressed like a whore in those shots, she probably was one. Hell, I would have paid. But since I was around 15 and cute at the time, maybe Tommy would let me have at him for free.

What about stars who ENDED as prostitutes?

Tara & Lindsay r183

Sophia Loren was specially trained for this from little up, so she had a lot of practice...

r54, you are VEEEERRRRRY naive.

Well, I didn't do it for the money, but I blew Richard Speck.

r171, he went postal because it ruined his foundation and powder.

Madonna telling Rupert Everett about her modeling days (I don't think she's owning up to anything, as another poster surmised ... she's just laughing at the brash youthful compulsion of it all):

do not click on R185 virus

Stephen Bray says in the British documentary on Madonna "Naked Ambition" that when he and Madonna lived together in her early New York days, she always had new clothes and money to spend because she had "benefactors" and "patrons."

I don't doubt that Madonna relied on other people for gifts or even money from time to time, but I don't think she was a run-of-the-mill prostitute per se.

r4 I've heard that too. One of his former Johns said he always smelled like shit. I guess he didn't wipe.

Jayne and Audrey Meadows used to tag team wealthy gents in NYC in the early 1940's.

Most Playboy playmates have escorted. Even those that had mainstream success.

Note that all strippers are essentially prostitutes so you may as well include those who were "entertainers" or "dancers".

A very conservative, holier than thou Christian type who famously played a shrewish frau in a family sitcom for years got her start as a prostitute. She plied her trade for quite a while before ensnaring a sugar daddy type who kept her for a few years. Someone needs to ask this hypocritical bitch how many abortions she had back then.

Rita Ora owns this thread. Oh, she isn't a star yet.

Hot trade.

Definitely Depp. Quit school at 15. Lived in a Chevy Impala. But suddenly he was married to Nicholas Cage's ex-girlfriend who "introduced" them. You do the math.

And that story has changed. I think an earlier on is that Depp delivered pizza to Cage's house.

I am confused. Nicholas Cage hires male hustlers? Hired? Nicolas is 2 years YOUNGER than Depp by the way.

Nicholas' real name is Nicholas Kim Coppola.

I thought Depp was Cage's drug dealer and that's what got his start?

that makes sense

I would much rather have fucked young Cage then young Depp. Well, get fucked by....

r197, you don't mean who I think you mean, do you?

Do you think Corey Haim let people suck him off for drug money or do you think he had to surrender his ass?

How morbid you are, r208. You should try and get a man - pay him if need be, but get laid!

Haim was so drugged out I don't see him being anything but a dead fish abused bottom.

r56, Really? Richard Tiffany Gere? Descendant of "Mayflower" pilgrims?

r161---LED. LED to his action movie career!

Suuuuure, r159.

There is nothing remotely sexy about Haim getting plowed considering he was drugged out most of his life, and his sexual life was perverted by abusers who used him up like a thing.

Helen Mirren

R211 Everyone thought Ms Quere was a Chicago Italian back in the day. I knew a sexy Greek who looked like him. He was a fabulous bottom.

R43, Tom Selleck? You are kidding, right?

R211 is he really? He's so not WASPy looking (but great looking nonetheless).

What about little Gwnnny Paltrow

If you not going to add anything worthwhile, r219, then please don't speak up.

Damon and Affleck sucked Weinstein's cock for the Oscar

R208 You sound like a sloppy second so I won't respond. I'm married bitch, you still pathetically single? LOL

And...? r221

Jessica Lange looks amazing now but she looks like a sea hag @op

madonna isn't actually a sexual person. She was raped at a young age so she's not very sexual person.

I wonder if Hollywood deliberately promotes actors and makes stars out of them where they know they did nudes or were hookers.

First they are less appalled by the nasty behind the scenes stuff of Hollywood and secondly they can easily be pressured into doing things the studios want because they don't want their past to come out. All the rest is just media manipulation and good publicists. Hollywood basically works like scientology.

r225, your reasons of deduction are suspect. In fact, they have the markings of a 50-year-old Sikh who lives on the border of Pakistan and India.

Benny Hill

Now people are just trying to be funny. Thread is dead.

R103. Louise Brooks became a call girl in NYC years after her last Hollywood film. I have never read anything about her being a call girl or prozzie when she started out as an actress.

There are rumors that Gabourey Sidibe started out as a stripper and a call girl.

Noel Gallagher was a sex slave when he roadied for Clint Boon in the Inspiral Carpets, that's more than understood and there's various pictures of them which validates it. In the recent Oasis doc they show he and Boon holding hands, in bed cheek to cheek, and at one point, Noel is in his undies with his arse in the air getting whipped by Clint who is whipping him with a leather strap lol.

Joaquin Phoenix was passed around and raped as a child actor.

No joke!

^ How do those pics prove he was a prostitute?

Brad Pitt

Lucy O'Ball and Hillary Clinton had sex for favors.

[bold]Brad comes up to my bedroom one night and asks if I have a book to read. Duh? The house is filled with books.[/bold] He wants something "scary." I give him one. Two weeks later, he returns it, saying he didn't care for it much. I remembered the title when, years later, I sat there watching him in the movie version. Yes, Interview With The Vampire.

{quote] Jessica Lange a high class prozzie

Excuse me, but the correct DL slang term for prostitute is "Prossy-kins."

Please make a note of it.

Racina said Pitt was careful to not pose for photos with him which shows how calculating and devious the pool boy was.

JOAN CRAWFORD owns this thread. After she was sexually abused by her step father she realised sex was a powerful tool....she went on to be a teenage hooker and later slept her way to the top of Hollywood. Theres a story that she actually stripped off in an agents office and offered herself there and then.That whore turned herself into the grand star but fooled no-one in Hollywood. ...least of all Hedda Hopper.

10 Celebrities Who Were Escorts Before Becoming Famous

For god's sake, Jessica Lange started out as a street mime in the gutters of Paris, not as a hooker!

R240 = Bette Davis

I let a lot of guys buy me sandwiches, it did not mean I slept with them.

I think Keanu Reeves in Toronto.

[quote]Wow, [R24], Trudie Styler and Peter O'Toole? Mind-boggling.

Where did this crap come from? Yes, Trudie worked at a Arab 'gentlemen's club' in London. She comes from very humble beginnings and does embellish a lot about her past. Yet Trudie did eventually go to acting school, then ended up in The Royal Shakespeare Company, that's how she ended up in Macbeth with O'Toole. Trudie was Sting's first wife's best friend. They were both in the RSC. That's how Trudie met Sting, through his ex, Frances Tomelty, an Irish actress. Trudie wasn't much of a friend, eh?

There is someone on DL who despises Trudie, any opportunity to bring up how awful she is, how untalented she is, what a home wrecker she is etc, that person is here. I wonder if they know Trudie personally. They sure take every opportunity to disparage her here at DL.

Mark Mark Consuelos was a stripper, most of DL already knows that!

He called himself Mark Mark?

Lets talk about the music industry. Who has sold their ass for a record contract.

Don't get upset, Brandon Routh.

I heard Rudolf valentino was a male gigolo.

R247 calm down, Trudie

Angie Lansbury was known to have turned a trick or two when she was younger.

The same Angela Lansbury who said women deserve to be harassed if they look too sexy?

OP, she looks like Corey Haim in drag.

I read that Catherine Zeta Jones was a high class hooker who 'entertained' Prince Charles for £10K a time. I think I read it on Datalounge so I don't know how true it is.

Rita Hayworth was pimped out by her father when she was 12 years old.

Not very high profile but Jolene Blalock during her 'modelling' days before Star Trek Enterprise.

Angela Lansbury comes to mind. Quite the trollop before making it big.

[quote] I think Keanu Reeves in Toronto.

I don't know if he was a prostitute as much as a kept boy during his days of being a waiter at, I think, Kensington Kitchen on Harbord St. I briefly dated a guy, older than me, who used to move in the crowd that included some of his sugar daddies back at the time.

Al Pacino

Pacino told the New York Post, “At 20, I lived in Sicily by selling the only asset I had—my body. An older woman traded food and housing in return for sex.”
