When I saw the above title on a Yahoo story, I assumed that some producer or director of the James Bond series was busted for soliciting a prostitute, and the headline writer was in a hurry and got the grammar wrong. But it turns out the headline is accurate:
Lee Tamahori, the New Zealand filmmaker best known taking the directing reins on the last 007 adventure, Die Another Day, is facing prostitution charges after dressing as a woman and allegedly approaching an undercover police and offering to perform a sex act for cash.
Frank Mateljan, a spokesman for the Los Angeles city attorney, says Tamahori was cruising Santa Monica Boulevard on Jan. 8, wearing a black wig and an off-the-shoulder dress, when he was caught up in an LAPD prostitution sting operation.
Now that’s going to be a lot harder to explain to the guys around the office than what I was thinking…
