[QUOTE=madmonk28] The NY Times had a [profile](http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/13/nyregion/12cnd-kristen.html?_r=1&oref=slogin) of her. She was not a $5k an hour prostitute, but a $1,000 per hour prostitute. For the agency that she worked, she was considered mid-range. [/QUOTE] Well, _that_ should make her mother feel better. ---

I don’t agree that she’s hot. In some of the casual pics, she’s quite ordinary. Also, does anyone else think that she’s had a nosejob? ---

The news was reporting she had run away from home at 17… does anybody know if she’d graduated from high school or not? How about college (even community college, correspondence classes, etc.)? This agency was touting the intelligence and education of their escorts; what did they say of “Kristen”'s intellectual sophistication? This recalls Woody Allen’s classic short story, “The Whore from MENSA”. 🙂 ---

On G-Rock [106.3](http://www.grockradio.com/index.php), a caller who said he went to school with her thought that her “broken home” claims are exaggerated. Apparently, her family was reasonably wealthy and lived in a big house. I have no idea as to the validity of any of this, but just thought I’d mention it. The more pics I see of her, the less attractive she looks. If she was in a few bars near my office, and she’d be quite “middle of the road”. ---

[QUOTE=Paul in Saudi] Wonder what her Mom thinks? “She’s a hooker, but really, really expensive one.” [/QUOTE] “…and she knows the Governor!” Her nose is a little too pointy for my liking in some of those pics, but I think she’s pretty good-lookin’. Not hawt enough for me to want to lose my job, my family’s respect and my social standing, though. _Time_ magazine says that Spitzer just last year signed a bill increasing possible jail time for prostitution johns from three months to a year. Oh, the irony… ---

Wow. It turns out that this woman grew up less than a mile from my home. In fact, one of my son’s friends lives on Carriage Hill Drive. That street intersects the cul-de-sac this woman grew up on. My son attended the middle school and now attends the high school from which she graduated. ---

[QUOTE=Mtgman] I’ve seen this comment [he could have had better for free] a few times, and it points out a fundamental misunderstanding of the prostitute/jon relationship. You don’t pay them just for sex. You pay them for sex with no strings. Sex is fairly easy to get, especially if you’re wealthy, famous, and powerful. At that point you’re paying for them to go away and keep quiet about it afterwards. [/QUOTE] Quote from a friend of mine who was young, rich, crass and known to hire call girls: _I’m not paying for pussy. I’m paying for it to leave afterwards._ ---

Make sure your son asks around to get some feedback from people who “knew” her before she went pro, and if they would put a $5K price tag on it. ---
