He’s definitely not off the hooker!
A former madam claims that embattled former IMF boss Dominique Strauss-Kahn was once a client with an appetite for high-price hookers, it was reported today.
The allegations over the financier’s past sexual conduct have emerged with The Times of London reporting claims that Strauss-Kahn was a client of one of New York’s most infamous former madams.
Kristin Davis, 35, was jailed for promoting prostitution in 2008 after it emerged that the former governor of New York, Eliot Spitzer, used call girls — a revelation that led to his resignation.

Davis alleged, in an affidavit seen by the newspaper, that Strauss-Kahn used her Wicked Models service on two occasions in 2006, while campaigning for the leadership of the French Socialist Party.
She said Strauss-Kahn called her in January that year to request an “all-American” girl, and paid $1,200 an hour for a two-hour booking.
“He paid in cash,” she said. “The first girl I sent to him said he was aggressive and didn’t want to be back with him again,” she added.
His lawyers have declined to comment on the allegations.
This comes as Strauss-Kahn resigned Wednesday night as head of the IMF, saying he needed “all my strength, all my time, and all my energy to proving my innocence.”

But the international moneyman sounded more like a homesick tourist than an accused perv in handing in his resignation to the powerful global agency.
“I think at this time first of my wife — whom I love more than anything — of my children, of my family, of my friends,” he wrote the IMF board.
“I think also of my colleagues at the [International Monetary] Fund; together we have accomplished such great things over the last three years and more.
“To all, I want to say that I deny with the greatest possible firmness all of the allegations that have been made against me.”
Strauss-Kahn’s lawyers will ask Judge Michael Obus to spring him from Rikers Island this afternoon, where he has been held without bail and on suicide watch since his arraignment Monday on felony sex-assault charges in the alleged sodomy and attempted rape of a 32-year-old maid at the Sofitel New York.
His legal team, headed by Benjamin Brafman, filed a bail application yesterday, saying the aging lothario would agree to post $1 million cash bail and “be confined to home detention at an address in Manhattan 24 hours per day with electronic monitoring.”
