Brandi Glanville’s dad won’t shut up about how she worked as an escort

Celebrity Big Brother eviction

Did Brandi Glanville ever work as an escort? That’s the unlikely question moving through the interwebs in the past week. Brandi always maintained that she worked as a model in her early 20s, but perhaps that was just a cover story. Perhaps at one point she told her father that she did work as an escort at some point? Brandi and her father Guy appear on the new season of Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars Family Edition. Which is a show I have no interest in watching or even reading about, but here we go:

Brandi and Guy’s first fight is now being teased in a tough-to-watch preview clip of the season’s second episode. In the clip, obtained by Entertainment Tonight, Brandi and Guy face each other with a tank of snakes separating them; they are told the snakes will be released if they don’t admit something they’re afraid to say to each other.

“You know when you went to New York and you were an escort?” Guy asked his daughter. “You told me you escorted some of these rock bands.”

“What the f— are you talking about?” Brandi replied, truly shocked. “I’ve never said that to you in my life. I don’t know what you’re talking about. If I was gonna be a f—ing hooker, do you think I’d tell my dad?”

She accused him of believing tabloid stories instead of her and said multiple times that she has never been an escort in her life. Guy shut down and said he’d be her puppet if she wanted him to be that. “I don’t want you to be my puppet!” she yelled. “I want you to be my father!”

That story was released last week. But this E! exclusive came out last night:

Things are getting very tense on Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars Family Edition! In this exclusive clip from the WE tv show, Brandi Glanville addresses the accusations her father, Guy Glanville, made about her being an escort.

“Brandi, do you think Guy was protecting you when he said in front of a room full of people that you were an escort?” Real Housewives alum Brandi is asked on the show.

“I think he was being honest for the first time in a long f–king time,” Brandi replies.

Teen Mom OG’s Amber Portwood then speaks up and calls out Guy for talking to her about Brandi.

“He told me last night in the kitchen when it was just me and him out of nowhere,” Amber says. We then see a clip of Guy telling Amber, “Brandi, she told me she was…she was an escort.” Amber then tells the group, “I don’t know why that got brought up.”

[From E! News]

So maybe we’ll never know for sure if Brandi Glanville ever worked as an escort, but we know for sure that her father sure seems to believe that Brandi told him she worked as an escort in her early days. What is this response? “I think he was being honest for the first time in a long f–king time”??? WHAT? To be clear… I think people would be shocked how many women – famous and unfamous – worked as escorts in their early days. It would not surprise me if Brandi worked as an escort, just as it would not surprise me that this is could be some kind of dumb storyline cooked up by Brandi.

    Oh dear.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if she did work as an escort, and I wouldn’t be surprised if she was dumb enough to tell her dad. But so what if she did?

  3. lightpurple says:

    What. The. Hell. Is. She. Wearing?

    • Lahdidahbaby says:

      My focus here exactly, lp. I have studied it the way one might study a traffic accident, and I really cannot figure out what it is or how it happened.

    • Naptime says:

      I spent more time trying to figure out what is going on with that “outfit” than reading the article.

      And yeah, people would be shocked to know how many bold-face name women choose to trade on their looks in direct-to-consumer commerce before AND after their “big breaks” — whether acting, modeling or marrying rich (or any combination of the three).

    • Kitten says:

      My first question too, LP.
      Honestly, she could look a BILLION times better if she had more style. I’m 39 and I know it’s hard to give up the tight-fitting, glittery sh*t but it’s TIME, girl. She could look really great if she took out the bad extensions, eased up on the lip injections, and just LET GO of the club clothes.

      • kimbers says:

        giving up glitter is based on skin. If you’re a moisturizer and non smoker then you could probably rock it longer…

    • Christin says:

      Is it a spanx bustier underneath, or a jumper-skirt with glittery extensions?

      She looks better in everyday clothes (plain shirt, jeans) and less makeup. Her evening looks often do her little favors.

      • Mrs. Wellen Melon says:

        Spanx with a glitter overlay and padded shoulders.

        Just let me find the nearest beach, sink to my knees, fist raised to the sky and wail, “Whyyyyyy?”

    • Lizzie says:

      thank you! who cares if she was an escort. all i care about it burning that dress and putting her in something flattering.

    • Sherry says:

      This! I could care less about the escort thing. What is that thing she has on?

    • holly hobby says:

      Yep. That dress is horrible.

  4. Kimma1216 says:

    Ohhhh her cheek injections! That’s so sad 🙁

    • SK says:

      Oh my lord her face in motion is horrifying… Her cheeks, her lips, but mostly for me her nose! Did she reduce it recently? It looks utterly bizarre. So sad that a once-beautiful woman would do this to herself.

      • Kitten says:

        Yeah I can’t tell if her face is getting so large with all the injections that it makes her nose look smaller or if she had a nose job. Either way, it’s really noticeable. Her cheeks don’t bother me as much as her bottom lip does.

      • Snowflake says:

        I think both. She’s overdone it on the filler and made her nose smaller. She had a thinner face with high cheekbones before, the overuse of fillers makes her face more oval now.

      • efffefff says:

        She’s always had a thin straight nose. If she’s done anything to it, its been minor. I think it looks crazy next to all of the filler around it.

    • psl says:

      If these women would quit starving themselves and just gain 10 lbs, they wouldn’t feel the need to put all that crap in their faces. After a certain age, too skinny just ages you.

      • wildflower says:

        She is tall and thin, yes, but I don’t see too skinny. Frankly, she looks normal-thin to me except for the fillers and “work”and styling, which is what I think is aging her, (in your opinion) not her weight. Sorry, these type of comments bother me as a thin person because sometimes that is just your body type.

      • psl says:

        I AM a thin person. But after a certain age, being too skinny does age you. This is the reason why so many Hollywood women are putting fillers in their faces.
        Look at Courtney Cox, Gwen Stefani…..they want to keep their tiny bodies, but their faces start to look sunken. Sorry if I offend, that is not my intention. But you know, it bothers me that you would assume only an overweight person would make that comment.

      • wildflower says:

        I assumed only an overweight person would make that comment? Where? I have no idea what size you are nor do I care about that. I also don’t have any idea whether Courtney Cox or Gwen Stefani want to “keep their tiny bodies” or are just that body type. So, they should all gain ten pounds so the aging process isn’t so harsh on them according to you? I don’t care what they weigh, that is their business, same as if someone were heavier, also their business. I think aging is just aging whatever weight you are, and calling out body types is not kind. You are entitled to your opinion that this woman needs to gain weight, I’m just not going there. Not trying to offend, either, just my own personal opinion.

      • psl says:

        Courtney Cox has said in interviews that when her body looks like she wants, her face looks old. When her face looks fuller, her body feels fat to her.
        Gwen has said in interviews that she is starving.

        These are the women I am talking about. Starving to be thin, when it not your natural body type, it ages you

        .

    • N. says:

      That is one hell of a botched face. Yikes.

  5. queenE says:

    leave your face alone!

  6. SK says:

    This could be a number of things. Perhaps she did. I recall my parents say that they knew someone back in the day who basically booked models to hang out with touring rock stars – essentially pimping them out. A lot of people knew about it and it still goes on today of course. This is a possibility. It is also possible that her father misinterpreted her saying that she was a model who dated rock stars or hooked up with rock stars as her being an escort because of certain ideas or prejudices that he might have. Or it could be a couple of other things.

  7. Huh says:

    I don’t think she did, but my judgment is for her dad. He is a rotten person. I watched RHOBH and Guy is a mean, miserable cuss. I think he resents his daughter for striking it for better places, and for her relative fame and success. He’s cruel.

    • psl says:

      My judgment is for anyone who watches any of these shows.

      This genre of television NEEDS to disappear. It is awful.

  8. Luna says:

    Why are a father and daughter on a show called “Marriage Boot Camp”?

    • Kitten says:

      Yeah that confused me too.

    • BJ says:

      It’s a family edition.Rapper Jim Jones,his mother and wife are on the show and they have them sleeping in the same bed,double Queen size bed.His mom sleeps in the middle because she has always been in the middle of their relationship.

  9. Lala says:

    Her Father reminds me of Courtney Love’s father…and if you have Fathers like THOSE inhumane humans…it explains just about EVERYTHING wrong in their daughters’ lives…

  10. Chaine says:

    Ummm I think the real question is, why is she married to her father?

  11. deets says:

    Cannes yacht girls and Diana Jenkins book, escorting happens more than the general public thinks. And wtf cares if she was or no, her dad bringing it up like that was a move to use it against her. No thanks.

  12. Junebug says:

    What the hell is this television program, why are these people on it and why on Earth would anyone subject themselves to watching it??

  13. Patricia says:

    Her face is surreal. I don’t see her in motion too often. It’s just totoally bizarre.

  14. Zapp Brannigan says:

    “I think he was being honest for the first time in a long f–king time” I read this statement she thinks her father is publicly revealing how little he thinks of her. Whether she worked as an escort or not is for her own conscience, but to have a dad thats exposes that to the world tells me everything.

  15. Snowflake says:

    I could see her being a groupie but I don’t think she was an escort. Her dad is probably the type that thinks its OK for men to”sow their oats,” but not women. He admitted on the show he was wild in his youth. Typical OK for him but not for her. Cause, you know, us women are supposed to be moral and help those randy men who can’t control themselves by not giving in and being a good girl *sarcasm*

  16. OriginalLala says:

    eh, her life, her choice to work in whatever field she wants but, girrrl – what are you doing to your beautiful face? 🙁

  17. Here or There says:

    Oh wow. I watched the video on mute just to watch those fillers in motion. That was a good solid laugh. Cracks me up how she’s turned herself into a low-rent Adrienne Maloof.

  18. HK9 says:

    God forgive me-her father is a genuine piece of shit. While I’m not a huge fan of Brandy, she does not deserve that in any way shape or form.FFS-sometimes, it be your own family.

    • NotSoSocialButterfly says:

      They were in cahoots, IMO. He smirked all the way through, and she cannot act shocked to save her life. She has to stay relevant via shock value tabloid tv, because she has nothing else.

  19. NotSoSocialButterfly says:

    1) He’s a really bad liar ( barely surpassing a grin from the snake box scene to the side by side interview) and she’s a pretty crappy actress.

    2) She has really wrecked her face. If you search, you’ll find archives on starcasmdotnet. https: // starcasm. net / archives / 119072 ( spaces added for filter evasion).

    • Kitten says:

      Oh man…just fell down the Before & After rabbit hole. I mean, I don’t expect that she will look exactly like she did at 30, nor do I begrudge her for falling victim to the dreaded LA Face, but she needs a new plastic surgeon. She needs someone to tell her “NO, that is too much” since she clearly cannot see it for herself.

  20. Skoochy says:

    1) Why in holy hell is someone on a show about marriage with their dad? Isn’t this like the grandest scale of taking your cousin to the prom?

    2) What the hell kind of Saw inspired therapy is this? ‘I sense there’s some communication issues here so I feel moving forw- RELEASE THE SNAKES!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAAAAAA!!!!!’

    3) Hasn’t her stint in reality tv and tabloid fresh hell always been border line escort-ish anyways?

  21. Ashby says:

    Such trash, why is she with her father on something called a Marriage Boot Camp?

    It’s sick.

    Escort???

    Snakes???

    I knew she was a huge mess when she was hammered and her tampon strings were hanging around her dress, but even I didn’t think it was this bad, nothing wrong with getting a bit tipsy occasionally, but, wow.

    Who are these people, no self-respect at all, no human dignity?

    She has money now, go to school, is she going to be on these cheap shows when she is 60???

  22. NeoCleo says:

    WHY is she? I don’t understand trash kind of fame. I’d rather be anonymous than famous for being a fool.

    Oh, that’s right, I AM!!

  23. Pandy says:

    Ohh boy! Do I think she was looking to meet rich and famous guys? Of course!! Do I think she was an escort? No …. unless it was a sugar daddy type of set up. You know, help with rent, dinners paid, etc. I don’t see her being driven around to outcalls by a pimp lolllll.
    Can’t imagine this type of dirty linen being aired for a paycheque. Geez.

  24. stinky says:

    im confused tho… are they not supposed to be revealing something to each other?? why is he revealing HER business instead of copping to his own dirt? and I aint a’feared a no snakes, so I win.

  25. Veronica says:

    1.) OMG girl, please stop doing that to your face. 😐

    2.) I honestly could care less if she was, in fact, an escort in her younger years. Frankly, the idea that sex work is somehow inferior to any other form of work is a matter of social perception. I’m all for legalizing it permanently. Stop letting men benefit from the defamation of female character and give them legal recourse for the abuse of their bodies.

  26. puravidacostarica says:

    Alright, I’m weighing in with a true story (not the same, but illustrative of older folks’ memories and how they can sometimes twist things):

    My family went on a trip overseas when I was 15, and I developed a massive crush on a handsome foreigner I met during our trip. I talked about returning to that country to marry him someday, as only an immature 15-year-old would do. My dad, years later, translated that little “flirtation” as a “sexcapade”. He was shocked when I had to point out that the story of what took place in HIS mind was wrong.

    I just want to weigh in and say that any number of comments made by Brandi when she was young and rebellious and asserting her independence (late teens/early 20s, whatever) could have been misconstrued by her father. I highly doubt that she would have told her dad that she was turning tricks for cash unless she did it as a lie out of anger to get back at her father. In difficult relationships between fathers and daughters, a lot can be said and potentially misconstrued. Even when a daughter is not consciously trying to upset her dad, the dad, years later, will likely remember it differently.

  27. Carrie1 says:

    In one of Brandi’s books, she said her Dad was the neighbourhood weed dealer basically. He didn’t speak to her for a year or more because of it. He’s either getting back at her, or he’s been too stoned all his life and misremembers things. Guessing I mean, I don’t know.

    Her story is she was discovered as a teen and sent off to Europe modelling at a young age. Nowhere in her timeline of life events did there appear to be time or episodes of anything resembling an escort.

    Anyway, her Dad gives me the creeps. And Brandi keeps doing backflips for his attention and he always treats her like dirt. It’s sad. Legit sad.

  28. bikki says:

    not like it was her father’s right to divulge this on public tv (horrid man), but listen, if she was an escort,,, so what?!

    I am never going to shame a sex worker for doing what s/he thought s/he needed to do at the time to feed/take care of her/himself.

  29. gwen says:

    Brandi is just a washed up has been lushed up stewed to the gills falling down drunk waste of space reality show piece of trash.
