Showgirl Patrizia D’Addario says she shot secret video in Berlusconi bedroom

Richard Owen in Rome

A showgirl who claims that she and other women were paid to attend Silvio Berlusconi’s private parties said yesterday that she had pictures showing her with the Italian Prime Minister in his bedroom.

Patrizia D’Addario, a former model and escort girl, said that she had given prosecutors audio tapes but also had secretly recorded video footage of her encounters in the Prime Minister’s Rome residence.

Ms D’Addario, 42, who was yesterday described by a senior government figure as a high-class prostitute, said that the footage showed her standing in front of a mirror. A bedroom with a framed photograph of Veronica Lario, Mr Berlusconi’s estranged wife, was in view. She said she had made the recordings “so that nobody could deny I had been there”.

The beauty of all this is that the PM will just say “so what?” and the public will forgive him.

I have always been amused by the term “high class prostitute.” Wouldn’t “expensive” be a better adjective.

parsy, who is available for rental by the right woman.

********************

This "senior government figure" is confused about the definition of "high class".

I like one of the comments in the Times comment section:

“I work in Italy and have been asking my Italian colleagues about the reasons for dear Silvio’s success. They tell me (only half jokingly) that it’s because every Italian man wants to be like him and every woman wants to go to bed with him. Viva Italia.”

You aim too low. We can produce Democratic Presidents that put Burlusconi to shame. He's a lightweight.
