UPDATE, 5:30: Heres my public comment, on-the-record: Sen. Lott and I have no current affiliation with one another. Im sure he would appreciate no further scrutiny, Benjamin Nicholas tells Big Head DC.
ORIGINAL:
Must credit Big Head DC:
Once upon a time, there was a twentysomething boy-next-door type with reddish blond hair and a brilliantly white smile. Not one to shy away from attention, he wrote a blog called Fifteen Minutes, and also became a freelance writer for various publications, including The Stranger in Seattle. Hed often focus on his non-traditional lifestyle as a gay male escort a topic that often fascinated his readers, which, in turn, helped him to garner a substantial amount of powerful business acquaintances through the years.
Based in San Antonio, he would travel all over the world to meet his clients, which included high profile celebrities, businessmen and even politicians in the United States Congress.
Sometimes within his writings hed give advice on how other males could become successful escorts. Other times hed post videos of himself flexing on YouTube. Once, he even scolded gay escort Mike Jones for outing Rev. Ted Haggard as one of his gay escort business participants.
You were paid for sex, Mike, he wrote in 2006. The most important rule you can follow when taking peoples money in exchange for sex is thatno matter whattheir lives stay their own and whatever passes between the two of you remains private. Period.
Many of his clients greatly appreciate his professionalism. In fact, according to one 66-year-old patron who reviewed him on a gay escort site, he is a very reliable escort who keeps you informed.
The boy happens to be real, and his stage name is Benjamin Nicholas. One of the politicos Big Head DC has learned hes alleged to have been involved with is the married Sen. Trent Lott, 66, who unexpectedly announced his retirement on Monday. Lott is well-known to have been against a plethora of gay rights issues throughout his terms in Congress. He was also good friends with Sen. Larry Craig throughout his time in Congress.
Nicholas told Big Head DC today via e-mail that he didnt want to go on the record to talk about his dealings with Lott, because, said Nicholas, Trent is going through his fair share of scrutiny right now and I dont want to add to it. However, e-mail and other records confirm that the two have met on at least two occasions.
All I can say at this point is no comment, Nicholas told us. Its the professional thing for me to do.
In a subsequent e-mail message, Nicholas confirmed that another publication is working on a story about a possible relationship between Lott and himself, but Nicholas also politely declined an interview for that story.
As I said before, Lott has quite a bit on his plate right now and I dont really want to add fuel to the embers, Nicholas told Big Head DC.
Thanks for posting it!
I’ve been FReepmailing it.
I didn’t know if I would get in trouble, or not. ;o)
just wow . . .
blech
This guy denies having any relationship with Lott on his website:

It looks like a Washington DC-based blog called BigHeadDC is making claim that there was (or, is) a working relationship between myself and Senator Trent Lott. There are falsely pieced-together quotes that serve no purpose other than to sensationalize a completely fabricated scoop.
I will continue to offer a great sense of confidentiality to the people I see. I have not, nor have I ever seen or had contact with Senator Trent Lott. It’s as simple as that. It never happened.
