ShamPow! ShamWow Guy arrested for fight with hooker
Vince Shlomi, who is better known as the ShamWow Guy, gave more than a suspected prostitute could chew during a fight last month in a glitz South Beach hotel, according to police reports posted on the TheSmokingGun.com.
According to the criminal complaint, Shlomi, 44, told police he paid Sasha Harris $1,000 for “straight sex.”
When he kissed the 26-year-old, she unexpectedly bit his tongue and wouldn’t let go, the report says.
Shlomi, the pitchman for ShamWow absorbent towels and the Slap Chop food chopper, told police he punched Harris several times until she let go of his tongue.
Shlomi has blood on his face in a post fight picture posted on TheSmokinggun.com, but Harris obviously took a lot more than she gave.
The blond had lacerations and fractures all over face, the police report said. Photos of the severely battered woman can be seen here.
Harris refused to cooperate with police, the report said.
Both suspects were arrested for felony aggravated battery, but prosecutors declined to file charges, TheSmokingGun.com says.

Mr. Shlomi. Your 15 minutes of fame are up. You can collect the crap from your desk at the guard station in the lobby. Your final paycheck will be sent to the Miss Harris to cover “entertainment expenses.”By MILITARY
