Zajaris Fernández opened up about one of the wildest experiences of her life, revealing that a gay friend used to pay her to pretend to be his girlfriend in front of his parents, who were unaware of his sexual orientation. "Once, I was an escort without even knowing that's what it was called," the Cuban actress shared in an interview with Los Pichy Boys.
"He was a gay friend who hadn’t told his family he was gay. They were wealthy, and his parents didn’t live here. Every time they visited, I had to go over, and he would buy me a bunch of clothes and pay me. One time, he took me to a dinner with a ridiculous number of forks, and I was like, 'What is this? I'm making a fool of myself here,'" the actress recounted.
Los Pichy Boys started joking that Zajaris’s experience was very similar to Julia Roberts and Richard Gere in the movie Pretty Woman.
"I wish I could find a Richard Gere," the Cuban actress joked.
The term escort refers to a companion or a woman who is paid to attend social events. The client pays her to accompany him to dinners, parties, meetings, etc.
