As any successful escort is aware, physical beauty, personal charm and sexual prowess are assets to be exploited for profit, and, with competent exploitation, life can be a movable feast to be enjoyed, indeed, relished. Being that Robert Sepulveda, Jr., is now the roast being served up at the feast, where did he go wrong in marketing himself as an escort?

Despite his over-curated Instagram presence and his now-sculpted body, he failed to realize that integrity and creating/maintaining a positive reputation is an integral part of being successful. One can create a beautifully-worded ad (which it seems he didn't do) with beautifully-photographed pictures (ditto, from what has been posted on various websites), but if one treats his clients badly and then reinforces that bad treatment by posting nasty commentary he is going to develop a bad reputation.

 

When I think of some of the well-loved escorts, a couple of which I've hired, the one thing that resonates is they all treat their clients with courtesy and professionalism and make them feel special. In fact, almost every guy I've hired (well-loved or relatively unknown) has done that. He didn't.

He wasn't very good. Many of us paid him to go away. He has an epic rant as EthanHungJock/Hunter in DC in the "Don't Hire Hunter in DC or Anywhere" discussion. View my posts as one of many clients who've posted over the years. Even though he had established a legit career path and had family and financial suppport, he continued rip-off escorting to have some power and feel better about himself, and veered into a sociopathic narcissism if you just look at his instagram or sham self-authored Wikipedia page.

 

As far as the Prince Charming show goes, he defrauded everyone including Logo and his own agents, and set up Lance Bass and the contestants for public questions about his behavior - this is not sex work shaming, it's rejecting a bad personality who fails at representing a community. Remember, besides the false resume and having never had a design career, he also represented himself as a meaningful gay activist and "philanthropist"(according to his laughable Wikipedia page). He's 33, so claiming youthful indiscretion or misunderstanding of what all these claims mean doesn't fly.

If Logo had any sense, they would pull this show before it even airs. Maybe they are hoping the controversy will lead to higher ratings than they normally get, but I don't see how anyone who is aware of this guy will want to watch a show that denies reality and tries to portray him as some sort of "catch."

Maybe one of the 13 suitors' best friend will have an Andra-style meltdown.

They already shot the show and are stuck - but they are making victims of everyone on the show who did not know that he was escorting right up until production what they were set up for. Repeating, it's not the sex work, it's the false representation of recent escorting, non-existent design career, and false "activist, philanthropist", um, true character.

I'm curious as to whether any of this leads to a reality/tv career, any endorsement things, or design opportunities for him.

 

And whether he does find a rich daddy to put up with and live with him happily ever after...

 

Did I just write that?! I'm not watching for anything other than his disappearance from the scene.

And what about the suitors? Will any sue logo and the producers for not having full disclosure of the Prince Charming porn past and appears to be unsafe acts! That poor bottle must be traumatized being forced inside that cavernous pussy

Sounds like a Margaret Cho line! Love it.

 

That's the reality of reality TV. Or, in this care, surreality TV.

Never heard of this guy before 2 days ago. I avoid reality TV...and reality.

So does his Wikipedia page.

Nor did anyone who was neither his client nor lived in Atlanta at the time of his crosswalk project. That would be the same crosswalk project that got washed away because the City of Atlanta permitted it as a temporary project despite his thinking it was permanent. Had he not given the remaining money away to other charities, he might have been able to work towards permanent rainbow crosswalks.

Tbis, of course. Controversy sells.

Most people don't care. And almost as many aren't aware. The most informed (like us here on the forums) won't watch anyway--we're not the target audience so Logo doesn't care.

Supposedly, this was his response on his Facebook page on 9/3 it appears - sure sounds like him (and as EthanHungJock in his rant):

Reply from Robert Sjr on Logos FB page-Robert Sepúlveda Jr.

What's wrong with you people? What else do you want from me, a liver? An eye? Do you guys want to burn me at the stake?! What's wrong with you guys! I am a human being here - with feelings and a family that loves and cares for me. You should be ashamed at the way you are attacking me - attacking a member of your own community. I've made mistakes in my life - I own up to that - but I am no different then you! How many of you are on Grindr right now or other sex apps?! How many of you ask or send for dick pics on the daily?! Should we shame you?! Should we ridicule you?! But you want to attack me for taking control of my life when I had little to zero options about how I was going to survive, where I was going to live or even if I had enough money to eat. Such hypocrites! This isn't the, "America helps us Canonizes a Saint" show. This is a reality show where REAL men with REAL life issues and REAL pasts meet and see if they like each other and fall in love! THATS IT! We all want to be accepted, we all want to be loved - this show will bring visibility to real life issues! If you want a granola 50s fake show of what life should be then watch The Andy Griffith show. What else do you guys want from me - I've said it - I was an escort - it takes a lot of courage to own up to your past - why can't you guys just allow me to move on with my life?! How about we talk about the thousands of dollars I've been able to donate to charities through my nonprofit The Atlanta Rainbow Crosswalks that is STILL an ACTIVE non profit. How about we talk about the many young students I've helped working with the NY Cares organization, or the 100 of dogs and cats we've saved working with no kill animal shelters?! How about you guys talk about the LGBTQ history that was made in Atlanta when I brought the rainbow crosswalks to Atlanta, and the visibility that was created which in-turn started a conversation that helped many young lgbtq kids start a dialogue about there sexuality with there loved ones in the Deep South. I'm such a multifaceted person, you'll see that on the show. I've had many experiences in my life good and bad, escorting was just one of them - am I a plastic Ken doll - absolutely not - I am human! You guys want a reality show, here it is, but now it's too real, or too gay or not gay enough or not diverse enough and you guys want to tear it down? You guys haven't even seen the first episode yet! Millions of men and women make money the best way they know how, sometimes there are no other choices. Life is a journey with many ups and downs. Shaming people is wrong! Period! And nothing anyone says will take away the fact that it doesn't matter what your circumstance is right now, today, you are worthy of being loved! I am worthy of finding love! You are worth of respect and dignity! You are so much more then your past! You are a unique and perfectly made human that can learn from your past choices and my past drives me everyday to be better, work harder and achieve more! If my words helps at least one person then continue to burn me at the steak! I am a willing sacrifice. But just know, all you haters out there I am moving on with my life with the knowledge that I have faced my fears, faced my past and can move through this world knowing that chapter of my life is closed. I won't allow the pain, guilt or shame of that experience to stop me from the trajectory my life is heading and I certainly won't allow trolls to use it against me as if it was some kind of ammunition I am afraid of, IM NOT! You guys are the ones that need to face it, and move on - it's over -closed chapter. If some of you sad individuals wanna keep blasting me, the show or anything else - my advice to you is to get over it and GET A LIFE!

 

What I want the world to know is that the idealistic image of a fairy tale prince is not relevant in this fast dynamic ever changing world we live in. Prince Charming of today is someone who is loving, accepting of others regardless of their past. Someone who is able to get through difficult times and using his experience to influence others by making better choices in life. Prince Charming of today is someone that understands the world we live in and knows through the wisdom of his heart that there is no place for hate especially in the gay community. We have witnessed segregation, abandonment and now killing of gay people in the hand of Isis simply because being gay is not ideal to those who hate us. I want my critics to know that there is no ideal. The only universal ideal is to love, accept and stand with each other against intolerance and hate. This is me and I'm not gonna coverup or go hide - I'm being my authentic self - I will celebrate who I am - we are never going to be good enough for anyone's standards. We should stop taking ownership of everyone else's life and start focusing on our own.
