‘Singing Hooker’ star on X Factor has Brits in uproar

[HMG Celebrity News] – Having left American Idol to start his next big idea, Simon Cowell’s next show ‘The X Factor’ is getting some press attention he’d probably rather avoid — One of the stars is a genuine hooker.
The British version of the show features 19-year old Chloe Heald, who has a 2-year old daughter, big dreams of stardom — and a police record that lists 140 arrests as professional call girl. And she’s told the judges her goals are to 1] to get famous and 2] to get rich.

Working under the name “Chloe Victoria,” Chloe promotes her less public skills on Internet web sites. Her most recent sex ad was posted less than a week before her X Factor debut, and an undercover reporter for a British paper soon blew her cover.

Chloe told the scribe that before the show she was charging $250 an hour or $1,600 a night., She now charges $400 an hour or $2,400 for the night.

“I’m living the high life and it’s an easy way of earning cash,” the paper quoted her as saying. “In a good week, I clear ₤10,000.” [That's $15,800.]

Now Chloe is claiming that the stories of her being a hooker are false: She is, so she says, merely a private dancer.

But in a surprise move the suits at X Factor are supporting their new media magnet. Simon Cowell says the show has no ban on careers.

“If a person applies, it’s obvious they want to do something better with their life,” the Mail quotes her as saying.

Last week Chloe turned up for a rehearsal late, drunk, disheveled and still wearing yesterday’s make up and clothes. She then gave the Judges what insiders describe as a ‘squealing performance’ of a song — and forgot several lines.

If this human PR stunt makes it through one more round, what might emerge in the show’s US debut is too scary to think of.
