a very un-"happy ending" (in so many ways)

ahhh vegas, the city littered with so many broken hearts and dreams. think you have heard them all? let me introduce you to young hubert blackman, who has filed a $1.8 million lawsuit against an escort service in vegas because one of their girls didn't spend enough time making him happy.

according to the las vegas times, while on vacation, this new york college student hired an escort from exclusive personals to come to his hotel room for a "date." while he was apparently satisfied with the quality of this woman's work, the quantity quickly became a point of contention.

here are the undisputed facts: the woman performed a lap dance (for $155) and a sex act (for another $120). the issue became the length of her "performance." hubert claims while she was commissioned for a one-hour period, she left after just 30 minutes. dissatisfied, he called the escort service to demand his money back (he also supposedly told them he had been too drunk at the time of the services to make an informed agreement with the dancer). needless to say, they said no (i'm guessing they said no while laughing hysterically, but i digress.)

so what did he do next? hubert did whatever sane thinking person does when the prostitution service they paid for isn't up to snuff, he called the cops! the vegas police promptly informed him that prostitution is illegal and that he could be arrested. (fun fact: while prostitution is indeed illegal in sin city, certain counties have legalized it, hence places like the bunny ranch being able to offer legal brothel service - sharing is caring.)

now before you think this story is over, let me remind you that hubert is a new yorker and a couple of no's won't stop us from seeking justice so richly deserved! upon returning to new york, he promptly filed a suit in manhattan criminal court, claiming he needed medical treatment for the clearly traumatic event, stating: "an escort did an illegal sexual act on me during her paid service to me...i almost had gotten arrested...i would like the court to close the business. i also would like to get my $275 payment back and a $1.8 million verdict for the tragic event that happened."

my point, and i do have one is...wow, hubert, the "tragic event" that happened is that you have now become a national laughing stock! so young and so stupid...so sad. my wish for hubert is that he forgets manhattan criminal court and instead brings the case before judge judy or the people's court so the rest of us see this case through with him!

what’s your point?

  1. I think that he has the legal right to sue if he chooses,(will he win thats another story.)Paying for multiple sex acts was entertainment for him, therefore he wants what he paid for. He paid for an hour and she split after only a half hour's worth of work...Clearly he should get his money back for the damage and trauma that this has caused him, even if he has no principles and his behavior was illicit. I laughed out loud when I got to the part where he called the cops. My point and I do have one is...if the cops in Vegas didn't lock him up, then maybe the judge who gets this case in New York, will! Pleassse throw the book at him for fraud and wasting other people's time, hopefully that will add to his "trauma". I would love to see him on the judge Greg Mathis' show, he would straighten him out.

  2. Of course he can sue....hell...anyone can sue for anything; even though we know that he has no case. Let's face it, this guy is an idiot, for many reasons that are just too obvious to mention. But, that being said, all I can say is "Thank you, Hubert, for a wonderfully funny story; one that made me laugh out loud." And...I would love to see Judge Judy tackle this one. It would be great TV!

  3. as i mentioned in an earlier post, i want this to be a forum where not only i could share my point of view on different topics, but for others to share theirs as well.... that being said, we should be able to share what we think without being hateful, by perpetuating stereotypes or by making comments with the sheer point to be "shocking." while i will never take down a post for having an opposing point of view, i will remove those that have offensive undertones. lets all try and be respectful.
