Celebrity Big Brother - Heidi Fleiss
Sunday, 3rd January 2010
Californian vegetarian Heidi Fleiss is well known for running an extremely successful yet illegal prostitution ring until her arrest in 1993.
The media reports of her arrest catapulted Heidi into the limelight as ‘a Hollywood Madam' although to this day she refuses to name her clients.
Her trial in 1994 was well publicised resulting in a documentary being made about her past career.
After a spell behind bars Heidi later sold the rights to her life story to Hollywood: the result was a made-for-TV-movie called ‘Call Me: the Rise and Fall of Heidi Fleiss"
The 44 year-old has produced a DVD with Victoria Sellers called "Sex Tips" and has gone on to develop various other business interests including running a Laundromat called Dirty Laundry in Nevada.
Heidi is an animal lover and is reported to keep parrots.
