It’s been 15 years since that day when the world found out that actor Hugh Grant was caught soliciting prostitution from Los Angeles hooker Divine Brown. Grant, who called Brown “Cherry Red” ended up getting fined $1,180 and two years’ summary probation for the crime. However for Divine Brown, it was a life changing experience.

Divine Brown only got $50 from Grant, who never got what he paid for. A police officer knocked on the car window, and proceeded to arrest both Grant and Brown that day. However, from all of the publicity and fame that came with the crime, Brown ended up earning over £1 million pounds — mostly from guest appearances and interviews. The 41 year old mother has used some of the money to put 2 of her kids through college.

Hugh Grant, told her that he was looking for a “beautiful black woman” that night.

Divine Brown explained how the event took place, just as if it occurred yesterday.

“I was running from him. I thought he was a cop,” she explained. “He kept circling the block and pulling up in front of me. There were lots of beautiful girls out there that night, but he just wanted me.”

After Brown got into the car, she said that Grant repeatedly called her “Cherry Red”, and told her how beautiful her lips and feet were. Could it be that Hugh Grant has a foot fetish?

All in all the event didn’t really hurt Grant’s reputation. He is still known as a terrific actor, and charming gentleman. For Brown, she certainly wouldn’t take that moment back. She got to spend some time with a good looking Hollywood star, and ended up making a living off of the money that fame brought her.
