U.S. Olympian's Secret Life As Las Vegas Escort

[TruthOut10]

Suzy Favor Hamilton worked as high-priced call girl for past year

A three-time U.S. Olympian whose illustrious running career has included a Nike TV commercial, a swimsuit calendar, and ongoing promotional work for Disney has spent the last year doubling as a $600-an-hour call girl, an astounding secret life that she now regretfully calls a “huge mistake.”

Beginning last December, Suzy Favor Hamilton, 44, has worked with one of Las Vegas’s premier escort services, booking scores of “dates” in Sin City and other U.S. cities, including Los Angeles, Chicago, and Houston.

While Favor Hamilton (seen at right) has used an alias, “Kelly Lundy,” when working as an escort, she inexplicably shared her true identity with several male clients, believing that her secret was somehow safe with strangers who paid for her company by leaving envelopes stuffed with cash on bathroom vanities in swanky hotels.

When approached by a reporter earlier this month in the lobby of a Las Vegas hotel, Favor Hamilton initially denied any connection with the escort service, Haley Heston’s Private Collection. But Favor Hamilton--who is married to her college sweetheart, a lawyer, and is the mother of a seven-year-old girl--eventually acknowledged her work as “Kelly.”

“I take full responsibility for my mistakes. I’m not the victim and I’m not going that route,” Favor Hamilton said. “I’m owning up to what I did. I would not blame anybody except myself.” She added, “Everybody in this world makes mistakes. I made a huge mistake. Huge.”

I guess if you like a really tight athletic body.

And the problem is...what?

Well, except she's a damned moron.

 

[SayMyName]

Great story! Thanks for sharing.

 

[Katzndogz]

Somehow, there seems to be nothing here unless she was unlicensed. Is that the allegation?

Prostitution in Nevada - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


The brothels are mainly situated in isolated rural areas, with Nevada's more heavily populated counties outlawing prostitution. The vast majority of Nevada's population lives in counties where all forms of prostitution are illegal, namely Clark (which contains Las Vegas),

Well whores make mistakes, Duke Cunningham and many other members of Congress, for example.

Oh yeah? "I meant to go to College, but I accidentally sucked a c*ck instead"?

She knew what she was doing the whole time, just as all sloots do!

 

[Papageorgio]

Not sure why it matters, Congress sells votes everyday and no one cares.

It's her body, it's her choice.

BTW, very nice body for 44.

 

[rightwinger]

Who really cares?

$600 an hour is good money

 

[blastoff]

While prostitution is illegal in Vegas it's as available as slot machines. And everyone knows it including law enforcement officials. The sane thing to do is either change the law or enforce it. Anyone really believe no money is changing hands for the authorities the look the other way?

Call girls are not prostitutes, and it's not illegal to be a call girl in Las Vegas.

Pretty much always. It's not exactly classified as "wise career choice".

A call girl goes by the designation "escort" or "entertainer" until she gets behind closed doors.

Then it's between the two parties. Legal or not. Unless the cops have set up a sting (they do occasionally), not much can stop it.

Prostitution is illegal in Clark (Las Vegas) and Washoe (Reno) counties. All others can operate legal brothels. But it's not like you'd end up with a "Pretty Woman" if you went there. For the most part, they are skanks you'd have to be really drunk to hook up with in any other situation. The good-looking ones ply their trade on the Strip, with the co-operation of the casinos. You think if the Bellagio has a "whale on the hook" (A big spender losing large), they're gonna let him leave to get laid? The closest legal brothel is an hour and a half away.

Every major casino has a "list". The girls are very professional and very discreet.

And VERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRY expensive. A lot more than $600 an hour.

This woman was a "private dancer" turning tricks on the side when she thought she could get away with it, and could convince the other party to pay her price. Pretty much low-life stuff.

What's interesting is the mental state. No matter how much money one receives, it's pretty hard for a human to do something they really dislike. Most of us would not kill someone, even for a million dollars. It's not in our nature. Strippers, call girls, hookers and porn stars all LOVE the fact that men will pay them to act out sexy. Therefore, extremely low self-esteem. This woman's had been shattered somehow. Perhaps age, perhaps someone close to her (hubby) didn't give her as much attention as she craved. Yea, she KNEW what she was doing, but in THAT regard, it could be considered a "mistake".

That doesn't make it a mistake. It would be a mistake if she thought she was being an accountant and made a mistake by having sex for money. What this woman did was made an unwise decision. She intended to make that decision so it wasn't a mistake it was intentional.

There's a difference between "mistake" and "accident". You're thinking of an accident.

Did she intend to be a whore? She might have made a mistake in making that decision, but at the time if anyone had told her she was taking an action that she would regret later on she would have told them it was no mistake and go pound sand. She intended to do exactly what she did. She might regret it now, but that doesn't take away from the fact that it was no mistake. It was intentional.
