Creepy Service Lets Customers Hire Hot Chicks To Go Running With Them

With New York’s local market flooded with companies that offer guided excursions for tourists, how’s an upstart purveyor of city tours supposed to distinguish itself? In several words: by offering guided tours led by hot chicks who are jogging. In one word: tits.

Called Prettygirl City Tours, the company’s website describes their MO thus-

…an active way to experience the Big Apple! Diligently-researched descriptions, friendly guides, and a stepped-up pace make this the most fun you’ve had on a tour.

-which sounds fairly innocuous, unless you’re distracted by the company’s logo: the silhouette of a thin, perky breasted, and beponytailed woman mid-stride in front of an Empire State Building backdrop. Clicking through further, the site begins to resemble a PG-rated version of the corner of the web where former New York Governor Elliot Spitzer found Ashley Dupree. You’re given the chance to see photos of the pretty girls with whom you may want to go jogging and cute descriptions about how much they like cooking and other girl who wants to be Miss America type stuff— like how much they love “the Statue of Liberty and everything that it stands for.”

There she is. Miss Ogyny.

On one hand, the women who staff Pretty Girl tours can’t be faulted for seeing an opportunity to profit from a service that the market will support. Whether we like it or not, there is a segment of the population that would pay money to run with a combination geisha, Hooter’s waitress, and personal trainer, and those people probably shouldn’t be in charge of much money.

Urban Daddy decided to investigate Prettygirl City Tours by purchasing a tour of their own. And while they had a fine time on the tour, they had one complaint— their Prettygirl wasn’t hot enough. The site writes,

If you go in expecting the perfect balance of Usain Bolt, National Lampoon’s Vacation–era Christie Brinkley and a PhD in local history… you may be disappointed. But if you like the girl-next-door type, you’ll be sufficiently motivated.

We’re not sure which is more eye roll inducing— the fact that there’s a market for this service in the first place or the fact that the reviewer was let down by the lack of hotness of a woman who was running and talking at the same time. No one looks hot when they run, unless you’re Angelina Jolie and you’re literally running toward a fan that blows hard enough to evaporate all of the sweat before it makes your head look greasy. And until she decides to rent herself out by the hour, maybe men should be satisfied bouncing around alongside their bros.
