The ShamWow guy's "date" tries to eat his golden tongue

Updated

He's the ShamWow guy. You know: "Vince," that guy who's stealing Billy Mays' infomercial crown with a smoother spiel and a raffish, aging-frat-boy charm. He's currently hawking his super-absorbent ShamWow and '70s throwback SlapChop on a cable channel with three digits near you.

And here he is again, in his recent mug shot. Vince is really entrepreneur Vince Shlomi, and he was arrested in Miami last month. According to the police report, he met and propositioned a certain lady, took her back to his hotel at 4 a.m., paid her $930, and kissed her. In response, she bit his tongue and wouldn't let go. After he succeeded in detaching her by way of a barrage of fists, he fled to the lobby. They were both arrested with felony aggravated battery when cops found the money in her purse, but neither has been charged. In the police photo, his face is noticeably battered, and his cheeks barely contain his now-swollen tongue, which has been temporarily stilled from uttering double entrendres.
