[kato]

The director of "Die Another Day" and "XXX: State of the Union" was arrested for allegedly approaching an undercover cop and offering to perform a sex act for money. He was wearing a black wig and an off the shoulder dress. Mark Geragos is his attorney. Man he sure knows where to fish at the bottom of the bucket.

MG must be desperate for clients; of course representing this director, is probably still a step up for MG, after representing SP.

N. Zealand filmmaker arrested in drag in US prostitution sting

LOS ANGELES, United States (AFP) - New Zealand filmmaker Lee Tamahori, who directed the James Bond movie "Die Another Day," has been arrested in a Hollywood prostitution sting while dressed in drag. Tamahori, 55, was arrested on January 8 when he allegedly sought sex with an undercover policeman while clad in women's clothes, according to a criminal complaint filed in the Los Angeles Superior Court.

"Mr Tamahori was arrested for soliciting. I can confirm he was dressed in women's clothing at the time of the arrest," Officer Jason Lee of the Los Angeles Police Department said. Prosecutors confirmed they had filed two misdemeanour charges against the Hollywood filmmaker: agreeing to engage in an act of prostitution and unlawfully loitering on Hollywood's Santa Monica Boulevard.

I guess they don't pay Bond directors like they used to.

Honestly, Hollywood has always been a hotbed for perverted behavior up to and including child molestation for as far backa s the silent era, because everyone's willing to look the other way if the perp is in "the business".

What I don't understand is why this Director hired Geragos? Cripes, he got Wynona a guilty verdict with probabation which most think she could have got without any attorney at all, Michael Jackson fires him and he loses big time with Peterson.

He probably mistakenly thinks that MG is due to win one. I think that is referred to as faulty logic.
