ShamWow Pitchman Arrested for Hitting Prostitute

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Legal Issues


This was one deal Vince Shlomi probably wish he didn’t make.

According to The Smoking Gun, Shlomi, best known for his ShamWow and Slap Chop commercials, was arrested last month after injuring a prostitute. The product pitchman claimed he simply became physical while trying to defend himself.

The incident in question occurred February 7th at hotel in Miami. The 44-year-old brought a woman up to his room after meeting her in a nightclub. Despite agreeing to pay $1000 for “straight sex,” Vince claims Sasha Harris, 26, bit down on his tongue and wouldn’t let go. After striking her several times in the face, a bleeding Shlomi went downstairs and requested police help.

Although both parties were eventually arrested for felony aggravated battery, prosecutors have since declined to press any charges. Harris, who received facial fractures and lacerations during the fight, claims a lawsuit against Vince may still be filed.
