JAZZ SINGER TRAINS BY WORKING AS GIGOLO



LOS ANGELES (Wireless Flash) – If you want to sing as well as Frank Sinatra could, don’t take music lessons – just become a gigolo. That’s how it worked for self-proclaimed “saloon singer” Shai Shahar, who spent six years in Amsterdam as a gigolo before becoming a professional singer. The 46-year-old Shahar claims having sex with more than 550 women has helped him understand the real meaning of lyrics to songs like “Love For Sale” and even ZZ Top’s “(I’m Just Looking For Some) Tush.” Although Shahar has no problems with his gigolo past, he says singing is a better career than sex because “...it doesn’t require an AIDS test.”
