ShamWow Guy In Slap, Chop Bust

TV pitchman battered hooker in South Beach hotel room brawl

http://i.cdn.turner.com/trutv/thesmokinggun.com/graphics/art4/0327092inside1.jpg MARCH 27--Meet Vince Shlomi. He's probably better known to you as the ShamWow Guy, the ubiquitous television pitchman who has been phenomenally successful peddling absorbent towels and food choppers. Shlomi, 44, was arrested last month on a felony battery charge following a violent confrontation with a prostitute in his South Beach hotel room. According to an arrest affidavit, Shlomi met Sasha Harris, 26, at a Miami Beach nightclub on February 7 and subsequently retired with her to his $750 room at the lavish Setai hotel. Shlomi told cops he paid Harris about $1000 in cash after she "propositioned him for straight sex." Shlomi said that when he kissed Harris, she suddenly "bit his tongue and would not let go." Shlomi then punched Harris several times until she released his tongue.

I know what you're thinking. I was thinking it too: that dude is 44?

The story goes on to say that the prostitute is considering filing suit. I guess biting the tongue is one way to provoke someone with deep pockets to punch you in the face repeatedly. It could have been worse, depending on the choice of "intimacy" in the hotel room.

I thought the guys name was Vince Offer.

I wonder if he gives his prostitutes a wet Shamwow when he's done with them.

[gdoane]

She looks rough for 26 years old. Looks like meth did a number on her before Vince ever did.

Saying "Let go of my tongue" must be VERY hard to say while someone is biting your tongue.

The law states that you must say
"lep geoowww obv my tunmmm" BEFORE you punch them!!!!! :))

He better hope that camera guy wasn't following him this time!! :lol:

"You're gonna love my nuts.":)

Maybe he "re-inserted" that line, just before she bit his tongue!!!!:razz:

If someone bit my tongue and would not let go I'd punch them too.

Guess she figures that he'll pay her just to get this to quiet down.

This world is full of stupid people with too much money and other stupid people just looking for any way to get their hands on that money.

Yes indeed. 1000 bucks for some overused sex hag? Yup he is not too bright.

Maybe that's all he can get...

[AutoRacer55]

at least the ShamWow could have cleaned up any mess that could have happened.

[Dreamy]

OMG the guy is a total loser.

I Hate LA" from some movie he made called "The Underground Comedy Movie"

Can't post it here. TOS inappropriate.

I'm betting that her instructions to him prior to the incident was "no tongue"

... and that is almost what he got. ;)

[sgdp]

Are those snowflakes on his shirt?

[consusa]

Anybody want to wring out his Sham-Wow?

[spearmaster]

I keep thinking that there has to be a "just wait, there's more" punchline in here somewhere.

it looks like a hospital gown of some sort.

That's what I was thinking, but then I'm like...she messed him up that bad? :)) That guy annoys me. Maybe he shouldn't have offered people his nuts so many times, because that irked me to no end. I can't feel sorry for him. :D :))

[troy]

He should be happy it was his toungue and not some other appendage.

[Claymore]

You know the hooker wasn't German. Those Germans make good stuff.

[ISYairio]

He does look rough. Ah, and both arrested for felony aggravated battery.

[Tinker]

... No way he is 44 :eek:

[psyko kat]

yep,he's 44.
