Life and times of Las Vegas rent boys

The pay cable channel Showtime is currently working on a new reality show. Its focus: male gigolos in the Las Vegas area.

The show, according to Showtime, is an "unscripted look into the personal lives of a group of men who offer sex and companionship for money in Las Vegas." The producer is Relativity Media's reality television unit. Showtime's most recent attempt to get into the Reality TV market was with "The Real L Word," a version of "The L Word" about the lives and loves of lesbian friends.

HBO has already seen some success with its own male escort inspired 'Hung' about a down-on-his-luck high school teacher who decides to start a second career as a rent boy.

And because Showtime is not a basic cable channel, we expect to see lots of cock!
