White House 'Gate-Crashers' Want Big Bucks To Tell-All
Posted on Nov 30, 2009 @ 10:30AM
The White House gate-crashing couple is looking to cash-in on their exploits by selling the first exclusive interview for a six-figure sum.
Tareq and Michaele Salahi - who got up close and personal with President Barack Obama – have pulled out of a planned interview with CNN because they want to land a big pay check for their tell-all.

Representatives for the couple have approached network chiefs asking for hundreds of thousands of dollars for the low-down on how the pair foiled the Secret Service and breached White House security.
Major networks have been encouraged to get their bids in to secure the interview about the incident that sent shockwaves though Washington D.C.
Although their names were not on the official list managed by the Secret Service, the Salahis apparently had no trouble gaining entrance to the dinner honoring Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.

Michaele Salahai has been trying to land a spot on Bravo’s The Real Housewifes of D.C. with many people claiming the whole incident was just a huge publicity stunt by the couple.
RadarOnline.com revealed that the aspiring socialites are no strangers to controversy as they have been named, either as defendants or plaintiffs on 16 different lawsuits. One of their businesses is in bankruptcy. Tareq has even sued his own mother.

Through competing lawsuits, the couple won control of Oasis Winery from Tareq's mother in 2007 but quickly ran the Virginia establishment into financial ruin.
Oasis filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in February, listing the IRS and American Express among the unpaid creditors.

It also owed $224,000 for "rental of FedEx Redskins Suite and related hospitality services."
Among assets they'd acquired with Oasis money -- but had already been subject to repo -- were a $150,000 Aston Martin and a $90,000 boat.

If they get the interview, the White House should force them to have to give any money they make off of their Tell Alls to a charitable cause. They should not make money playing frauds. Make them GIVE back and learn from their greed for more.

The salon that worked on her for 7 hours before this event, did so even though she owe's them still for her wedding in the tune of $ 7,000.00. And after hours of ibeing n the chair to be beautified, she didn't even leave a tip.

Well thats the Salon fault for working on her knowing she still owes them money. They worked on her for 7 hours thats a bit exagerating don't you think. She didn't even look that grate. . They deserve no tip.

Can you profit from committing a crime? And yes, lying to a federal official is a crime. Gate crashers, balloon boys and octomoms. 3 reasons to end "reality tv".

You are 100% right!! I love to be entertained...but reality tv is NOT entertainment when you are following nuts around just doing what they do normally. Makes me mad - nobody pays me LOL

Nowadays, being bad and breaking the law seems to be the ONLY way to profit!!! DOn't you read the news? Breaking the law for profit is the way companies are doing it - why not a couple of fools?
