CELEBRITIES are sometimes offered large amounts of cash to accompany wealthy individuals, reported Metro Ahad.
Actress Wafariena Roslan, 28, said she has received many offers from both rich men and women through social media.
“I was once offered RM150,000 for one night. The lowest offer I received was RM15,000. Some offered between RM20,000 and RM30,000,” she said.
While she does not accept the offers, Wafariena said she finds it amusing to receive them.
Another actress, Wanna Ali, 27, whose real name is Nor Syazwana Mohd Ali, said she knows other celebrities who engage in these activities.
She also said there are “middlemen” who will manage and arrange the meetings.
“The celebrities are not necessarily ‘selling’ themselves and some offers are just to be companions,” she said.
Malaysian Artistes Association (Seniman) president Zed Zaidi said these offers go unnoticed because they are done discreetly.
However, he said only a small number of artistes are involved.
He advised them not to misuse their popularity for such activities despite facing life challenges.
> A bank employee’s 10-year-marriage was wrecked by her husband’s infidelity with her younger sister, reported Kosmo! Ahad.The woman, known as Nurin, 38, said she had always been “vigilant” and even “kept tabs” on her husband’s female colleagues, but never expected the real “homewrecker” to be her sister.
“The person I love, lived with and hugged every day is the one who stabbed me in the back,” she said, while seemingly letting her husband off the hook.
Nurin’s younger sister had been living with them for five years since university while she was job hunting in Kuala Lumpur.
Nurin discovered the illicit affair in April when she returned home from work in the morning to retrieve some documents.
After entering her house, she was shocked to hear her husband’s voice in her sister’s room, and when she burst in, she saw them in a compromising position.
“It turned out they have been in love since my sister was in university.
“We are now in the process of getting a divorce, and I will never forgive my sister’s actions,” she said.
