Hooker Says Time Inc. CFO Was Her ‘Sugar Daddy’

It’s hot, sweaty, a prelude to New York’s summer funk. And a prelude to this gossip item — courtesy of the New York Post — as it is, too, hot, sweaty, funky:

June 17, 2006 — An alleged high-end madam made bombshell claims yesterday that Time Warner’s top financial officer was her “sugar daddy” — showering her with gifts, clothes, cash and even helping her buy an apartment during a four-year “relationship.” “I liked him very much,” Brazilian babe Andrea Schwartz said of Wayne Pace, who made $3.7 million last year as chief financial officer of the company that owns CNN, Time Warner cable, People magazine and a slew of other top-flight media properties.

Schwartz, who gave the interview from Riker’s Island, says she met Pace at The Fours Seasons in “2001 or 2002,” and that he eventually bought a Chelsea apartment for her and her then-husband.
