Lots of AW profiles make me cringe, but she seems to be going 'yeah, so what' about the story.

I wonder if she showed face pics etc before the exposure.

well I was reading news of the world and she's an escort, they even sent an undercover reporter to book and film a booking with her and showed her adultwork profile

What?! Was she aware of this filming? Oh my god. A reporter booked her and filmed the sex? Or did he admit to being a reporter and just film an "up close and personal" interview? For some reason, my mind is boggling either way.

And as for her earnings... does she pay tax? I'm going to assume she does, cos most of us (despite a certain annoying stereotype) actually do, and if she doesn't then she might just be incredibly stuffed right now.

I don't think this girl is the "trashy opposite" of the Belle de Jour klassy kortesan type, but since I can't quite make out a coherent business plan behind all of this madness she's doing at the moment, it does seem like she might not be the organised, careful businesswoman that many of the hookers I admire really are and that I try to be. I literally flinched earlier this week when I started a new course and one of the people said they like to take a class photo for their website - argh! No face pictures! was what I wanted to shriek - so as far as going on the X Factor and having every detail of my life rummaged through like a garbage bin by reporters for "newspapers" like the Mirror/NotW makes me feel nauseous in my tummy. It's not something I'd think of as a Step Two after whoring because of all the potential horror but maybe she really does have a plan?

What I read on it was that the undercover reporter booked like a normal client, but then refused full service and just wanted a lapdance (that's what she posted on her website anyway). I am always very wary of clients who don't want full service for this exact reason - though I don't offer much aside from sex so I think they'd find it hard to get away with.

I realised after I posted that might come off as classist, it wasn't my intention (got nothing against klassy kortesan as a marketing ploy, but I really don't like people who dip their toe in the industry for a bit of easy money and then style themselves as experts on it, while being dismissive of career prossies - it's attitude not price that fucks me off). But her fake, fake, fake look, her thick accent and her obvious lack of organizational skills really don't make her look good at all, and I hate the idea of people seeing her and assuming that we're all like that (those of us who don't piss champagne and shower in money, that is). I honestly don't think she has a business plan - I think she just wants fame and attention and tried to use the X Factor to get it, and is now making the best out of the failure.

And I want to go on Deal or no Deal. Oh balls. 

On a serious note, reading deeper into the story, this young lady is very young, and a single mother. If she was going to be outed, good bloody luck to her, I hope she does well. She will need to, because these types of things of a habit of never going away.

I just hope and pray she has a nosy on here one day and gets a decent website. Lord. Burberry Print? Last name - Mafia? You have got to smile.

And don't forget, 10k per week is going to take her waaaaay over the vat limit!

Personally, I wouldn't take any so called "quotes" to heart if they're published in a tabloid. As they all too happily print any old garbage regardless whether the person in question actually said that or not.

What she's done doesn't bother me. It's how people have reacted that makes me sad. Like it's terrible that a prostitute  was allowed on tv!!!

Amen to that. And all while any soldiers on X Factor get half the nation's praise for being sent to murder (sorry, patrol) some impoverished 3rd world peasants. But God forbid if you suck cocks for a living!  

One thing I do like about Ms Mafia is her singing. I watched her first audition and when Cowell asked her what she did for a living she said she wasn't currently working. Which comes to show just how exploitative X Factor really is. She didn't mention her profession - the tabloids did. Now, bearing in mind Max Clifford game keeps most of Cowell's misdemeanors, and that the ITV execs get to meet the participants during 7 auditions before the X Factor* then how comes they can't respect their participants' rights to privacy more?

Or does the whole world need to know that she's a hooker, regardless whether she even wants people to know? And oh, isn't it strange that the press isn't running that old story about Simon hiring an escort (sorry, "ending up in bed" with a stripper)? At least his "quotes" have been decent this time round as he didn't have a problem with accepting hookers on the show. Or are his "quotes" simply there to cover his own back? In case some prossie stories would emerge if he ever openly opposed hookers being on the show...

* I once met someone who did audition 6 times before getting a "no" - and she was only 1 audition short before even meeting the judges for what would have been her "first" televised audition.

Do they not realise the succesful contestants were already picked weeks in advance?
Well, at least they get to chant I've got the x-factor! for the overhead camera shot ..

I think the lady I've met had to go to different audition spots in various areas (maybe even travelled to different towns too?). So I just automatically assumed she would be amongst all the other hopefulls that you see filmed queuing up chanting: I've Got the X Factor, Simon Loves Whores... (oops, just imagined the last one).

I did read in the paper this morning that she's on drugs....
