Hi Everyone, Returning from lurk mode to ask if the joke Craig Ferguson told on his show last night was true -- that Sting was photographed leaving a German brothel?!
From The Times of India: Sting, whose real name is Gordon Sumner, was photographed by tabloid Bild, which asked: "What did Sting do in the Hamburg top bordello?" Advertising itself as a strip club, the promotional literature of Relax says that the club "frequented by more than 40 top models every night". Reports have suggested that what is not advertised so freely is that most of the models rent themselves out by the hour. They usually accompany clients to the swimming pool, whirlpool bath and sauna inside. However, the spokesperson for the club said she knew a photo of Sting was taken in the car park in his minibus, but denied he had been inside. "No, no, he wasn't here," the Daily Mail quoted the spokesperson, as saying. Sting's publicist defended his client by insisting that the singer has never hidden his fondness for going to strip clubs. "Sting and his wife Trudie Styler have always been open about their interest in strip clubs. I do not know whether he went to this club. However I would not be surprised if he went. It is nothing he would be ashamed of," the publicist said.
