Sunset Thomas

A new phenomenon has emerged over the last half-decade or so: porn stars "guest starring" in legal Nevada brothels. The trend started back in 1999 (NSFW), when porn legend Sunset Thomas began a residency at the Moonlight Bunnyranch in Carson, Nevada, the only state where prostitution is legal. After Thomas made a ton of dough, other porn stars started clocking in time between the sheets at various whorehouses, using their adult film status to command top dollar. These days, everyone from Teri Wigel (also a Penthouse Pet and Playboy Playmate) to Nikki Lynn to Caressa Kisses to Rebecca Love can be found in places like the Bunnyranch and the Kit Kat Guest Ranch (where Thomas recently relocated), waiting for a fan with some dough to trek across the mighty desert for good time.

All of this is explored on HBO's series of "Cathouse" documentaries, the second of which is titled "Cathouse 2: Back In The Saddle." This latest HBO docu details the history of the 50-year-old Bunnyranch and its owner Dennis Hof, and raises many of the issues concerning legal prostitution. It also happens to be one hell of a sexy, sleazy affair and not to be missed.

Looking beyond the obvious argument as to whether brothels should be legal, lies this interesting twist in the fan-star relationship: How much is it worth to a fan to have sex with his or her favorite celebrity? Would they pay $1,000? $3,000? $5,000? And what about conventional stars? Singer Mya was recently caught on Punk'd believing that a fan had paid $50,000 for a date with her. Consider this "Indecent Proposal" -- sex with Demi Moore for $1,000,000?
