Roni Rose addresses Mad Girls Fitness prostitution ring story
Remember Roni Rose, the woman who went viral during the NBA Finals for lusting after Steph Curry? Well Rose is back in the news this week after some websites linked her to a an alleged prostitution ring that was busted by undercover police.
Bay Area news outlets reported this week that 54-year-old Dominic Salazar was arrested on suspicion of running a prostitution ring. Salazar created a company called Mad Girls Fitness, which he advertised as a modeling/photography company. But police believe it was a front for a prostitution ring.
The Mad Girls Fitness website boasts in its about section:
MAD GIRLS is primarily a Professional Modeling, Advertising and Artistic Ad Photography company. We also offer Professional Private Training Services such as Private Modeling, Private Dance, Private Massage and Private Pole Dance and Private Pole Fitness Training and job placement.
The San Jose Mercury News says authorities believe Salazar used the modeling aspect of the company to lure women in, but then told women they had to be prostitutes first before becoming models.
So how does Rose fit in? Well photos of a woman named Rose who strongly resembles Roni appeared on the Mad Girls Fitness website, leading some websites to link her to the ring.
Rose though firmly dismissed the prostitution allegation:
“Come on media it’s gonna take a lot more to break me. To pin prostitution on me can’t be the best y’all can come up with. If we are going to entertain the minds of gullible people give them a better story this was pretty much predictable. But while I’m still a hot topic I got a dance workshop and Bball tournament fans come on out,” she wrote.
We have reached out to her for more specific comments on the matter.
