Anna David, the author of Bought, a new novel on high-priced prostitution, talks to The Daily Beast's Marty Beckerman about her fictional high-price prostitution ring.
Anna David has a résumé longer than the word limit of this article. She is the sex and relationship expert on G4’s Attack of the Show! (view her clips), a regular on NBC’s Today and Fox News’ Red Eye, a former Sirius Satellite Radio host, a former editor of will.i.am’s political blog, a contributor to Playboy, Vanity Fair, Details, Cosmopolitan, The New York Times, and the Los Angeles Times, and the author of Party Girl, a roman à clef about her cocaine addiction that Dr. Drew Pinsky praised as “the most accurate portrayal of… recovery I’ve come across.” (Sony Television has optioned the film rights.) Her novel, Bought, about a high-price prostitution ring, is out this week.
“In L.A. there are hot girls in every café, every shop, every BMW, and they don’t all have trust funds. I would hear about girls flying around the world on various guys’ dimes. I knew I could get a lot of dramatic mileage out of that.”
She spoke to The Daily Beast about hookers in L.A., life as a sex columnist—and what Sean Hannity and Ann Coulter are like off-camera.
Bought originated with your 2004 Details article on women in Los Angeles who charge $10,000 to $100,000 per job. Why do you find that subject so fascinating?
I knew nothing about hookers, and nobody in that scene wanted to talk to me because they feared even anonymous quotes would give them away. And then I found this madam everyone hated, and they were all happy to tell me everything about her. Suddenly I had madams, girls, and FBI informants on the phone. As soon as I said this woman’s name, the floodgates would open because everyone wanted revenge against her…My editor wanted to make it “how the rich get their rocks off” instead of a deeper investigation into how this worked. The finished story almost read like an advertisement for that madam. She got clients out of it!
Did the hookers you interviewed have hearts of gold, or were they drugged-up pains?
Every girl was extremely damaged and doing a lot of drugs to numb themselves. You can see the damage in their eyes, and you can see how in denial they are. I’m not saying every hooker is like that, but I wouldn’t say they had hearts of gold.
Why did you write Bought as a novel instead of nonfiction?
I wanted to write a nonfiction book, but it worked better as a story. I lived in L.A. for a decade. There are hot girls in every café, every shop, every BMW, and they don’t all have trust funds. I would hear about girls—friends of friends—flying around the world on various guys’ dimes: One guy flies her to Aspen, another guy flies her to France, another guy flies her to Dubai. I knew I could get a lot of dramatic mileage out of that.
Bought. By Anna David. 288 pages. Harper Paperbacks. $14.99.
Is sleeping with a hooker still taboo for the average American guy, or less so than it was in previous decades?
It’s probably less. A lot of guys are honest with me about it, as long as they aren’t trying to sleep with me. Many people feel there is no difference between what hookers do and what trophy wives do.
Why didn’t your publisher get an Eliot Spitzer blurb?
Or just Ashley [Dupré] would have been great!
Is it impossible to talk about overcoming addiction without sounding like a corny antidrug advertisement or elementary-school lecture?
I know how it sounds, and I hated people who sounded like that before I got sober, but a lot of this stuff makes sense when you go through it.... I find drug addiction endlessly compelling, and I found it compelling even before I did drugs. When Sober House is on, I can’t breathe!

More from the Hooker Beat? What editor at The Daily Beast decided the readership is interested in bimbos who pathetically let strangers spew on their innards in exchange for untraceable payments? Romanticizing the lives of these pitiful bottom dwellers is sick.
I guess, I'm just out of step with what The Daily Beast regards as sophistication.
kaj310
perhaps just out of step and overly judgmental. if you're not interested, please feel free not to read the article...and spare us your comments.
romanticizing? i fail to see anything romantic about taking drugs to numb yourself to the life you're in.
Issywise
"Out of step and overly judgmental" I may be to you, but who the f@#$ appointed you to decide who should or should not post here.
If you don't like my posts, you are free to not read them and spare us expressions of your censor's soul.
troublemonkey
Issywise -- *you're* saying, "Please spare us the article", but when someone says "Please spare us your (far less entertaining and informative) posts" you go ape-sh*t.
Add "hypocritical" to the previous pejoratives, LOL.
Issywise
Troublemonkey:
Explain to me what purpose is served by The Daily Beast's fixation on expensive call girls? Can it be said that the discussion serves to explore aspects of a public policy choice? Can it be said the continuing and repeated discussion of prostitutes is appropriate entertainment fare?
What's the point? What is the supposed readership interest that keeps justifying investment of the space in discussion of expensive hos?
Perhaps, you can enlighten me by explaining why you think the theme is worth this publication repeatedly returning to the issue? Do you find it entertaining? Enlightening? Titillating?
What am I missing? I'm not trying to be entertaining or informative. I'm just missing the point and don't see what you are getting out of articles about high priced whores?
If they repeatedly ran articles about toilet seats, I'd be just as flummoxed. If some people found those toilet seat articles interesting, I'd wonder why too?
Can you elucidate?
magnum240
I can't speak to the Daily Beast's 'fixation', as I haven't been here that often, but it seems to me that people are always interested in the lives of others, especially when their lives fall so far out of their sphere of experience. And the toilet seat analogy makes no sense. Stories about people, whoever they may be, and stories about inanimate objects aren't really the same thing.

Must be nice to make 10,000 to 100,000 for one hour...no matter what the work is. Now I'll go back to slaving away most my day (life) for pennies on the dollar. These women are more financially free than most people will ever be.
TimBarrus
Shooting from the moral hip. Bottom dwellers? Bimbos? This is a romance with ignorance.
It's not an issue of either sophistication or style.
Strangers? Spew? Pathetic?
This goes beyond ignorance into sheer rage.
Untraceable payments? Hooker journalistic beat?
There are many people who feel outrage when sex, sexuality, and their subsequent social connections to culture are openly discussed.
This goes to self-awareness and not one driven by rage.
That outrage is fundamental to an anxiety that sex is dirty and ultimately a sin when not linked to procreation.
I found Bought fascinating. Such books are also insightful; I am interested in the other side of the sexuality coin which would go to male prostitution.
A life I lived for a while somewhere in the dim past. I, as a pitiful bottom dweller, pathetically let sick strangers spew my innards in exchange for untraceable payments.
No. I was attempting to survive.
There will be the inevitable bloggers who will scream I could have been a plumber or I could have washed dishes in a restaurant. Why. When I could make in one night what washing dishes in six months could make.
My most significant challenge as a whore was boredom. Most of my tricks were married men from the suburbs. With wives and families and jobs in the city and new cars and college educations and parents and credit cards and Christmas and absolutely no idea what sex was. About...
Like most of life, whatever they made of it.
As for drugs, it was my distinct impression that these men were deluged with everything from anti-depressants (not good for sex) to the alcohol that they washed down the pills with.
They saw me as some kind of abstract respite from a life they loathed. When in reality what I did was put my independence in their face.
It's not the self-worth (we know exactly how much we're worth) of the whore that is the question.
Many of my tricks just wanted to talk. Talk was extra. Listening to their extraordinary pain was both draining and work.
Many of them were lost in despair at the meaninglessness of their lives. They were lonely, too. Not having made any strong connection to another human being. Some were suicidal.
Yet we are the bimbos and the spewing and the spewed and the bottom dwellers and I would suggest that such unmitigated anger is, too, a romance with another kind of spewing altogether.
As a writer, I had failed. But I was determined to write at any cost. As a whore, now I had something to write about. I also had the time as I wasn't washing dishes or scraping out an existence somewhere 9-5 as a slave.
As a whore, I was compelled to obfuscate my identity. The same people, and I do mean the SAME people, who would pay us for sex would also arrest us and incarcerate us. Hypocrites abound. Irony is everywhere.
As a writer, I learned how to convince you that I could be anyone I wanted to be. Because as a whore, I learned those ropes.
The mask usually gets ripped off in time. I was amazed that I could get away with being an Indian for a few books, a few articles, a few literary awards, for ten years. Again, boredom comes creeping in. I got bored with him.
The same people who would "expose" you are always amazed when their assumed power is exposed as so superficial as to be laughable. More rage ensues. They still vow to "get" me. Fiddledeedee.
Wannabes are everywhere.
What's "sick" is the assumption that you can have it all. Two perfect sons in high school, the suburban version of the trophy wife; all the toys of the American dream (all mortgaged). And someone like me tucked away in the city where Thursday nights you usually work quite late.
There should be a journalistic hooker beat, and it should be designed to deconstruct the illusions of sex and replace them with something Americans scream they love: truth and reality.
You don't want the truth...
Any whore knows that. As writers and whores, what we bring you is the fantasy. The romance you want desperately to believe. In yourselves. In an inner worth all your second selves know is mainly nonexistent.
Today, I work with at-risk boys. Teaching art. Boredom is not a problem. Many of them were once prostitutes, and I am pretty sure a few still are. Most have HIV. A few full-blown AIDS.
The cultural fantasy is that as their teacher I'm teaching them. I must maintain this fantasy -- as teacher -- or the witch hunts do not stay confined to Salem. The reality, versus the cultural illusion that I am the teacher and they are the students, is the other way around. My untraceable payments have to do with their awareness that time is limited and they live by this assumption that too much of it is wasted in numbness, in rage, in devotion to systems that do not work, in religion, in ritual; I can either engage in living NOW with them -- or not -- and, quite frankly, or not is not an option.
We're still selling ourselves. Mainly on the idea that you won't allow the Issywises of the world define you. That you have the power to define yourself.
Strangers. Innards. Spewing. Bimbos. Pitiful. Bottom dwelling. All of these are analogies to a romance with hate.
Life is way, way too short for it.
I am no longer a writer (having failed). I am no longer a whore (having failed).
Today, I spend some time wondering what an artist is. What do artists do. Sex as a commodity is not limited to traditional prostitution.
For many of us as we make art we are beginning to understand that for the first time in our lives, what we are not out of step with is ourselves.

Emotionally complex schomplex! Girls are so sexually experienced nowadays doing it for money is no big deal.
Twisted
You really don't get it just having sex does not mean good fun sex, besides there are plenty of male sex workers serving both male and female customers.

"Girls are so sexually experienced nowadays doing it for money is no big deal."
Really? Where do you live? How are you raising your daughters?

What is no big deal now can rear its ugly head later. Athletes abuse their bodies and have problems later in life. The mind works the same way.
troublemonkey
Oh, yeah, no emotion involved in sex at all. That's a totally realistic perspective. Totally. "Doctor."
Martyz42
Call girl or trophy wife, steak dinner & then sex or cash up front & then sex, picked up at the beach, picked up at the bar, sex on the first date, sex in the first half hour are all about the same thing on the bottom line.
Take religion out of the picture & all of the above is the same, all of the above would be excepted & all of the above would grow to be the norm.

Martyz42
So there is no morality untied to belief in sectarian myths?
If one thinks it is necessary for people to deny that particle physics and biological science are valid in order to be "religious," the cost imposed by believing morality is only possible through religion is too high.
Respectfully, I suggest that morality is not dependent on "religion." Morality can be taught without dressing it up as part of a cosmic boxing match between spiritual beings of inestimable power.
Of course, this website's fetish with romanticizing whores isn't helpful. Their lives are not estimable and it shouldn't be implied they are.
But, I think I'd rather have the whores than people claiming to hear God whispering in their ears telling me how to live.
steff47
Some men and I use the word loosely think that women are for hire mainly caues they can't get a women to pass the time of day with them without money being exchanged. Morality has nothing to do with it but fantasy has the dream of a women doing whatever whenever is just that a dream caues Martz you will NEVER have enought cash Ever

Fetish? I think you need a dictionary, IW. Or at least some perspective. And, who implied estimability? *Something* must be "whispering in your ears" (sic), because you're certainly not alluding to the text.
troublemonkey
steff47 -- yeah, that's exactly why Hugh Grant was caught with a crack whore... because only that beastly hag Elizabeth Hurley would have him. How about *some* point of connection with reality while you're spewing?
troublemonkey
Oh, yeah, "context" is just completely irrelevant. Perhaps you and "Dr" Klein ought to form a mutual ignoration society...?

Yah: Whats up with all these bogus call girl articles with no credible sources ?? Mid priced to high priced adult entertainers / sex workers / call girls are adiverse group both personality to ethnicity from women with doctorates and masters degrees to 9th grade drop outs; from totaly personality disordered unable to hold any kind of straight job, to independent mentally strong almost a therapist to "regulars". Drug and alcohol use is not to deaden these women but what drove alot of them into this business. If you or the author of this article(or article subject) want an honest look at this business and the working women go check out the web site " Danger Zone 911 " which is a resource run by and for the working women.

IT's about time our idiots in Washington legalized drugs and prostitution. These are victimless crimes that are committed by consenting adults to fill a need (or appetite). Really, what is the big deal? Take the crime out of it and regulate these industries which will help the economy, reduce disease and violence, and move our culture towards enlightenment.
Yes, my padiwan apprentice, indulging in sensory excess is a step on the path towards enlightenment. But seeing the way politicians and corporate exec's behave, trying to exclude the masses from these behaviors in which they indulge, they have become stuck on this behavior. That is NOT the way to enlightenment - we must keep moving forward, contemplating our experiences. Then, when we are free of our addictions and compulsions, we may take the next step towards enlightenment - letting go of our need to control others and the elimination of materialism. That's the tricky part - especially in our Capitalistic consumer society. What will we do if we're not producing and consuming? How about reading, writing, talking, playing music, inventing, performing, loving and contemplating it all? This is what we're supposed to be doing.
Issywise
Whoring is a victimless crime? What about the whores? Heroine sales is a victimless crime? What about the addicts?
What world you live in? O... the world of padiwan enlightenment. Your utopia would be nice, but unfortunately we live in this world.

As a *Natural Born Hooker* who's lived and worked in L.A. for the last ten years, here's my review: "Bought" - and the so-called author - are both brain dead from the word go.
It's too bad Ms. David's glib and superficial "book" covers material very much like a cut 'n paste version of, "You Never Make Love in this Town Again" and Madame Alex' autobiography, two sex worker tomes that appeared in the MSM about, oh, uh, say, twelve to fourteen years before Ms. David started her journalism career writing about boob jobs.
Nitwits like Ms. David give posters who hate articles about sex workers more amunition: the topic of sex work and its place in the economy is undeniable, pervasive (sex trafficking is happening probably down the street corner, certainly if one lives in Los Angeles, it is) and historical. Unfortunately, Ms. David (guided by who, I'd be curious) seems intent only on regurgitating the most reductive stereotypes of sex workers.
Yes, sex work's tough but in ways that don't fit into Ms. David's - and the media's - sensationalized narratives. But to write an article - or book - about sex work with any sort of historical reference points or nuance would require analytical and writing skills clearly beyond the reach of Ms. David's Maxim /Playboy background.
And, oh, yeah, being a "recovering" cocaine addict: since when did recovery, whatever that is, qualify one to speak on anything? It's bizarre, too, given Ms. David's willingness to speak about her "sobriety." Isn't one of the central tenets of AA, "anonynity at the level of press, radio and film"? Or, does that tenet suddenly not apply when you're promoting a book? Maybe the book Ms. David should have written was a first person narrative, Go Ask Alice for the 21Century, you know the one about about recovering crack whores.
But then, an airhead who describes Sean Hannity as "sweet" and Ann Coulter as not really "evil" off camera (because, as we know, that's where all life "really" happens ... off camera), betrays an astonishing stupidity. And naivete. It's exactly those media images Ms. David essentially sees and talks about as "fiction" (because Hannity et al are "sweethearts" - WTF is this? Valentine's Day?) that allowed Ann Coulter psychopathic conservatives to sell (see above, "whore" and "prostution") the country on fictional political narratives.
The question I have for the Daily Beast isn't so much, "why another story about sex workers" but "why such a DUMB story about female sex workers"?
(Apparently, in Daily Beast world, trans workers, and male sex workers don't exist something which would as a surprise to a vast swath of workers.)
My question number one would have been: "Why, Ms. David, is your book so insufferably gendered and orientation biased?"
Certainly, with someone like Tracy Q on your contributor's list, you might have generated a more compelling piece vs. this lame phoner.
ChiMike
Do street walkers have much time to watch Fox News these days to actually render an opinion on anyone? Nothing you said here is based on any fact whatsoever and I wasted 5 minutes of my life reading it. I'll never get that 5 minutes back, thanks a lot. I'm sure you have a much more informed opinion about people, such as Hannity and Coulter, than someone who has actually met them. If you believe all the hype, who is being naive, you are Ms. David? Go and do what you do best and leave the intelligent conversations to those of us who work upright.
DerekM
Anger truly does breed irrationality.
Miss David did not write a historical overview of prostitution. 'Bought' is a novel with a basis in her personal experience. She even said this in the interview and did not label all prostitutes in that manner, just the individuals she interviewed. Also, where did she claim to be an expert because of her recovery from addiction? I would be willing to give her expert status when it comes to the experiences of addiction. Can you not see how investigating high paid prostitutes and finding that all she interviewed were addicts, combined with her personal problems in that area, would provide a great foundation for a novel?
The real problem here is with people who can't read an article like this or Miss David's book and use some critical thinking skills in examining it's intent. The same can be said for your analysis of her comments about Hannity and Coulter. It seems obvious that such "loud" personalities are playing it up for the camera to a certain extent and I'm not at all surprised to find that Hannity is a very sweet guy. He is known for being that way. Letting political bias cloud your judgment is very childish.
You should probably take a deep breath and find out why you have spewed such bile at a very nice, genuine, and intelligent person.
KonradProduct
@DerekM, My response to Miss/Ms. David's interview is hardly based in the sort of personal investment (as you seem to suggest yours IS i.e., "a very nice, genuine, etc.") you have in her, whatever relational form that might take.
Also, for someone who apparently feels comfortable advising others on reading, you seem not to read very much - or know much about how journalism, at least the sort practiced by the Daily Beast - works, so I will explain.
First of all, this piece is not, as you (and others) mistakenly characterize it, an "article." It is an interview. An article is prose with multiple sources, researched facts, etc. This is what's called a "one-on-one" and, from the way it reads, it was done, over the phone, in about twenty minutes. It is, largely, an exercise in promotion, and more closely something like marketing than old school journalism (even in the Brown era, Vanity Fair/Talk Magazine genre of journalism, there were fact checkers - none present here.)
An interview is, essentially, a collaboration. In this instance, between an overeager interview subject, singlemindedly intent on selling her book (and her history, however disconnected or unrelated to said book), with a disconnected INTERVIEWER.
My comments are as critical of Mr. Beckerman's bored, spoon fed questions as Miss/Ms. David's brain dead responses. Likely, he had 20 minutes with her on the phone: certainly, as they read, the questions were drawn from a list, bullet points cribbed from the book's publicist. Miss/Ms. David did nothing to enlarge Mr. Beckerman's questions, challenge, or otherwise make them more compelling.
In any case, bored/brain dead questions of the sort Mr. Beckerman lobs tend to elicit equal amounts of tripe: if you really, truly believe Ms. David's "answers" are compelling or interesting, then, well, I'd toss you, Derke, into the tripe heap with the two of them.
As far as other "hot" cultural references ie., hooking! in LA! (which are ten years and counting according to the authoress), Ms. David's purportedly "sensational" book is anything but: she seems completely oblivious to the fact her narrative stands in long (really, really long) line of narratives about sex workers. Lady Mursaki's "Tale of Genji," comes to mind, as does Collette's "Gigi," "Cheri," and "After Cheri." Film wise, "Klute," too.
For me, as an educated, well-read reader to take her seriously - or, should I say, as something more than a purveyor of thinly disguised "journalism" - would require her to offer something more to me as a reader than her airhead, Miss California responses. Which suggest her book would probably be more of the same.
The political stuff is just embarassing and I'm amazed you can keep a straight face defending her love of the conservative "sweetie," i.e., assholes on TV, "gracious" in the green room.
Miss/Ms. David does nothing to advance her sales by seemingly jumping up and down and clapping her hands with glee and aligning herself with anorexic blonds (Coulter, pill, popping obesities (Linbough) and charalatans (Hannity). Thus, your ad hoc attack on me is nothing but a transparent "friend" defense. But then, if you're comfortable with that type, Derek, your comfort level with hypocrisy already exceeds mine, so I'll defer to you on this point.
Miss/Ms. David's defense of Hannity et al: there is a general consensus - if you've been reading anything but books about hookers by "recovered" coke heads - that what they sold to the great US of A were, in fact, political "fictions." That Miss - or, "Ms." - David dips into the cult of aw, gee whiz, they're really "sweet," is more of the nauseatingly, anti-intellectual glop served up, day in, day out, for the last eight years. For you to retreat into claims of, "Oh, it's obvious it was just for show" is morally indefensible. Perhaps you can try that line out on the many human beings who've suffered as a result, direct or indirect, of such "show."
Limbaugh - another "sweetie" and oh, Palin, too, a self-described "pit bull with lipstick" - and now, Cheney, were and remain are not only vocal, but corrosive forces in an America I think you'd agree, Derek, deserves so much more.
Where, in Miss/Ms.David's wonderful world of recovery, is there an "amends" for the children who've lost their parents? Or their limbs? In a war that was, as is generally agreed, based upon political fictions sold by Hannity et al?
So, take your own deep breath, Derek, and reread your comments, and Miss/Ms David's: if you don't find yourself then leaning over a toilet bowl, barfing, we'd all be very suprised.
Then, again, maybe you can ask her to hold your head?

Trophy wife, hooker, or whatever - just be upfront about the fact that when you're on your back, there's a meter running.
quinwithey
it's monetizing sex in terms of time that stresses everybody out.. stresses me out certainly.. i bet anna davids parents are proud of her.. selling books is hard.. (you know women authors have always led riotous lives.. that was their appeal.. wutheriing heiights was a big success cos everyone thought that bronte girl was banging thackeray in return for whatever he was paying her off with..) 'pornography' is originally defined as 'writing about prostitutes'.. and gee ain't this a country with a healthy taste for porn
you know mary shelley was a bad dangerous little girl.. but that ain't the story of mary shelley is it?
JoelHoshkins
What a life Anna David has made for herself. Testing vibrators, being a drug addict, and traveling the world cavorting with prostitutes. Quite a resume it takes to get a job at the Daily Beast. Her parents must be so proud.
steff47
What is this a slow news day, when is tripe like this worthy of comment except for the lowest depiction of stupidity
trappp
Ms. David is an excellent writer and storyteller, and that's what it's all about. She drew upon her own life experience, and the people she'd met, and put it into a great book.
Skunkcontrol
Well what a bunch of Gnat nutted little limp wrist having crybabies some of you are!!
you might try to appreciate that while you are reading Star Trek novels and sipping Snapple or something equally horrid,there are other people who enjoy different types of reading..
How self centered are you?
I have read about Miss David and find her strength in overcoming her past rather interesting, not to mention she is incredibly good looking!
Skunkcontrol
I and many other find Miss Davids life very interesting, many cruel things are mentioned in these comments ..
are you really so dim as to not let a book someone else might enjoy reading be a story on here?
Can you say a bunch of Drama Queens ?
Tripe? C'mon who makes reference to the inner stomach wall while degrading something?
and you say her life is dreadful :)
Miss David is a talented writer who has overcome many obstacles and if you do not prefer the subject of the book does that mean nobody else will either?
not to mention she is damn easy on the eyes.. lighten up folks!

I would not mind at all to see intelligent, well-researched, well-documented articles on the sex industry in this country. A compilation of information not perceived by most Americans could be useful for dialogue on the issue of legalizing prostitution.
This article, unfortunately, isn't it.

It seems like mature adults would have learned, by now, that participating in this sort of behavior while it seems fun at first, results in the worst mental health conditions. The simple fact of the matter is; No woman wants her self worth equated by what's between her legs. I have known many whores, prostitutes or whatever you want to call them and they all had one thing in common. They all crashed! When they did it was not a pretty picture. Oh a woman or a man for that matter may front that all is well and they are happy but I'll never buy it, again. Why do you think the rate of substance abuse is so high in this profession, it's because there is a desperate need to cover up the fact that YOU ARE FOR SALE! In the sex trade "FOR SALE" reaches deep down inside of you. For the right price I get to invade and penetrate your body, the most personal possession you have or will ever have. It's mine and you can't say a damn thing about it, not if you want my money. I've heard all the "safe-sex" stories but the real deal and the bottom line is if you want my money bad enough and I catch you just right I won't have to practice any damn thing, and you know it! In the real world this is a dangerous game and it results in severe damage to the individual practicing it. I've witnessed women and men do things that I never thought conceivable for money. When it all said and done all you have in this life is what you stood for, yesterday. What kind of man or woman are you? Can your children or anybody's children find reason to respect you or does just any damn thing go, with you. Is there no low that is too low, for you or will just anything do? So while people spend time glorifying this crap and the kids are reading this mess and believing it we really owe them the truth---The end of this type of life is death, maybe not to your body but it most certainly kills your soul.
Thank you.
