Post subject:  The importance of negotiating up front
Carmen Electra is a Latina.

Richard Lugner is a gringo.

And they're having a bitter dispute because Mr. Lugner either has never been on this site or has ignored the much repeated axiom of "negotiate up front!". In this case, it was the chica who did the up-front negotiating

Carm Electra Thought She Got an Indecent Proposal

Carmen Electra and Richard Lugner

Carmen Electra is embroiled in a bitter dispute with an Austrian businessman who invited her to this year's Vienna Opera Ball, because she thought he was paying her for sex.

Each year Richard Lugner pays a celebrity beauty to accompany him to the prestigious society event -- previous "dates" include Joan Collins, Ivana Trump, Sophia Loren, Grace Jones, Sarah, Duchess of York, Raquel Welch, Faye Dunaway, Farrah Fawcett, Pamela Anderson and Andie MacDowell.

But Electra has never heard of Lugner and believed the invitation to Thursday's bash to be an indecent proposal. She forced her benefactor to present a statutory declaration that he wasn't expecting an intimate date and banned him from picking her up at Vienna airport.

Lugner says, "She thought I was looking for a sexual adventure and emphasized that she is a married woman. Every year I go with my wife and my Ch*ld and pick up my guest at the airport. My wife is always with me. I even told her management that she can bring her husband (rocker Dave Navarro) as well, even if he's all covered with tattoos and you can only see his fingernails."

When the pair eventually met, their date was brief -- Electra fled the ball at midnight, claiming her tight low-cut dress was too long to waltz in.

Now Lugner has vowed to be more selective with his date choices, insisting no more young beauties: "They are too stressful. Next year, I will choose someone who's a little bit older."

But organizers of the event want Lugner to stop bringing superstars to the ball completely. Organizers Countess Christel Schonfeldt says, "Lugner terribly harms the image of the ball with his horrible broads."
