PM knew I was a escort

The sexy woman at the centre of a scandal involving Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi added a new twist to the saga that has been fascinating Italy since last year by admitting that she was a prostitute and that the PM knew about it. She confirmed to the court that Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi knew she was an escort when he spent the night with her.

"Certainly he knew that I was an escort," Patrizia D'Addario said on a nationally TV in front of an shocked Italian public. The national TV RAI reached a great number of viewers with no less than 7.3 million people tuned in to see the sexy escort talk about her night with Mr Berlusconi, 73.

Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi is now famous for sleeping with many women and cheating on his wife. He has never denied spending the night with the sexy escort but he claims he did not know that she or any of the other women who attended his parties were high-class escorts.

The conservative leader, whose wife triggered the crisis in May 2009 by seeking divorce and accusing him of bringing escorts back to the family home, denies ever paying for sex. It is also great publicity for the beautiful Italian escorts who appeared very glamorous in the press.

Ms D'Addario taped explicit conversations with Mr Berlusconi on her cellphone and went public when, she says, promises like business favours and even a European Parliament seat went unfulfilled.

Now that Italy is out of the 2010 FIFA World Cup, all italian players can spend more time with their families, their wives or follow on the footsteps of the Italian Prime Minister and spend time with a sexy escort and claim that they did not know she was an escort if they want to. Who will listen?
