Stars who turned to prostitution AFTER becoming famous

Louise Brooks became a call girl after her film career ended

Barbara Payton wound up as a skid row hooker

Were there any other actors or actresses who turned tricks after their fame faded? There are a lot of people who had a hit show, or did a few successful films, then didn't do much after that, you wonder how some of them were staying afloat

Didn't Stephen Geoffreys (Fright Night) try escorting for a while after? I know he did porn.

Maureen McCormick became a coke whore.

Before he became famous Arnold used to get "sponsoered" older men.

Kitten from Father Knows Best was a whore.

Rumor was Mamie Van Doren. How has she supported herself all these years? Her last marriage ended in divorce in 1973.

He may not be a star but we're all pretty sure that the Cockgobbler is for rent.

Zac Efron. He is said to be a yacht boy that's been selling his hole since the end of his High School Musical days. Never forget he also received gifts from Bruce Willis, who used gifts to pay off Aaron Carter. That's what I've heard at least.

Melania Trump was a hooker on the blade. Now she's a call girl. So she's stepped up.

A friend of mine who worked along with Alec Baldwin at Studio 54 claimed he had a sugar daddy back then. A doctor. Brooklyn Heights.

I heard the late Natalie Cole coke habit was so bad in the 70s that she would do tricks in Harlem just to score more.

by Anonymousreply 24August 18, 2025 6:23 AM

Natalie Cole admitted to being a "look out" for a pimp and his other girls while they were working.

It was a "come to Jesus" moment for her that I never quite bought.

Joan Collins divorced her first husband because he sold the promise of a night with her to a wealthy sheik or something.

I don’t know if she honored the arrangement.

Brad Pitt lived rent-free in soap writer Thom Racina's guest house when Brad first got to LA. Of course the official story is that it was a platonic arrangement.

You'd have to be a moron to not read between the lines and know that sexual favors were going on.

I believe that actresses like Tina Louise, Mamie van Doren, Julie Newmar, etc. still support themselves with prostitution after their stars faded. I think they use the autograph shows as a cover.

You know a lot of skeevy men would still pay to fuck a 90-yr. old bombshell.

by Anonymousreply 33August 18, 2025 5:13 PM

pay how much? they make good money at the shows.

Nah - I don't believe it.

The rumor I heard about Schock isn't that he's a hooker but a pimp who sets chickens up with the gay elite

by Anonymousreply 40August 18, 2025 9:29 PM

I think Schock moves tangible high priced items internationally. For money laundering. He could even be a fence. Patek Philippes rather than drugs. Maybe art. Wine.

This is the most depressing thread. I read that Troy Donohue ended up homeless...why aren't they careful with their money when they're on top. Though looking at my friends I can see some just can't hold onto money while others are amazing; not mean by any stretch, just not silly.

Where did you read that? He lived in Santa Monica for decades in the same home

Schock sold his ass to the highest Prince who could get him until he aged out and brought in younger youtubers and influencers to fill his stable of rent boys.

Is having a sugar daddy really the same as prostitution?

Louise Brooks merits a streaming series. I think a documentary or a drama would both work quite well.
