I knew there was something wrong with the ShamWow guy!!!



YIKES!!!  The smoking gun has gotten a hold of the mug shot of Vince Shlomi, the ShamWow guy.  You can read all about it here.  No shit.  Guy freaking beat up a prostitute.  

"Shlomi told cops he paid Harris about $1000 in cash after she "propositioned him for straight sex." Shlomi said that when he kissed Harris, she suddenly "bit his tongue and would not let go." Shlomi then punched Harris several times until she released his tongue..."

"..After freeing his tongue, a bleeding Shlomi ran to the Setai lobby, where security summoned cops. Harris refused to cooperate with officers, who recovered $930 from her purse. "Both parties had a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage emitting from their persons," police reported. In a brief telephone interview, Harris declined to answer TSG questions about her run-in with Shlomi, though she did say she is considering a lawsuit against the pitchman. Asked if she worked as a hooker, Harris declined comment. As seen in the below mug shot, Shlomi was also injured during the fracas and, court records show, was treated at Mount Sinai Medical Center."

I'm just relieved to see he's decided to beat down his look with good 'ol fashioned booze and hookers.  Seriously though, how long ago were those commercials filmed?  He's really let himself go.  I'm kinda disappointed in Vince, I thought for sure we'd see him in infomercials to come.  You know, ShamWow is doing really great.  Lots of sales.  And they owe that to Vince.  Especially the scene where they "do it live" and then cut away.  I'm sure it works great anyway.
