This Year’s CPAC Will Have Yet Another Unaffiliated Party With Actors Playing 'Pimps and Prostitutes'
PoliticsIt’s just like your terrible college!
On Tuesday, several listservs sent out to actors and models received a call to participate in their democratic system. That call was for actors to play “Light Costume Characters” to promote a party at CPAC, the annual conservative political conference that attracts major Republican figures and, this year (from March 2-5), presidential nominees.
Among the patriotic costume characters needed: a prostitute and pimp! One email, which came from an organization called Spokesmodels.com, was forwarded to Jezebel by tipster Manda Writes Things. It reads:
