Taipei 'diarygate' giving some VIPs sleepless nights

Taiwan's celebrity circles, "government" officials and major businessmen are no doubt trembling with trepidation after police seized the "Queen of Pimps'" diary and contact book earlier this week.

The 1995 Miss Chinese Taipei finalist Lin Wei-wei, 36, runs a piano bar for "gentlemen" but on the side has allegedly been setting up dates with wealthy clients for fees ranging from NT$60,000 ($1,880) to NT$200,000 per hour, according to a Sohu report.

Extras were obviously ... extra.
