The Girl With The Golden Vagina


It looks like a tell-all by Natalie McLennan, better known as the $2,000 an hour escort featured in New York's now infamous "New York's #1 Escort Reveals All" cover story, is set to be published this fall.

The Price: My Life as Natalia, New York's $2,000-An-Hour Escort is due to arrive in bookstores on October 1, and the publisher is Phoenix Books, making Natalie/Natalia's publishing mates with Gene Simmons and Larry Flynt. Uh, congratulations? I, for one, would rather see a book like this only far, far better written by somebody else. You know who are, woman.

Where's Judith Regan when you need her, indeed? I wish the mainstream book publishing industry would start publishing books by sex workers who can really write, dammit.
