Kimbo to party with Hollywood celebs & Suicide Girls?

That didn’t take long…in the span of 48 hours Kimbo Slice–who’s future prospects in MMA we discussed at great length yesterday–has gone from fighting bouncers in ghetto parking lots on YouTube to apparently living the life you’d expect from Vinnie Chase on HBO’s “Entourage”. In the role of “Queens Boulevard” director Billy Walsh we have Courtney Solomon, producer of the forthcoming film “Captivity”. According to yesterday’s NYT fishwrap, the premier party for the film is going to include torture rooms, the alterna-porn hotties known as the Suicide Girls *and* none other than Kimbo Slice–I added the emphasis on the relevant info in the quote below:

For starters, Mr. Solomon has ordered up what he calls the three “most outlandish” SuicideGirls available from the punk porn service, even if they’re as frisky as the ones he is told once set a Portland, Ore., restaurant on fire. Some lucky fans will get to take the women as dates for party night, July 10, on two conditions: “People take the date at their own risk, and everybody on the Internet gets to watch.”

Cage fighting too is likely. Mr. Solomon’s planners are angling for Kimbo Slice, the bare-knuckle bruiser whose vicious backyard brawls are a Web favorite and who made his Mixed Martial Arts debut on Saturday.

But the warren of live torture rooms is a must. As Mr. Solomon envisions it, individuals in torture gear will wander through the West Hollywood club Privilege grabbing partygoers. All of which is a prelude to an undisclosed main event that, he warned last week over slices of pizza a few doors from his company’s new offices on the Sunset Strip, is “probably not legal.”
