Sounds to me like some schmuck who couldn't get a date, spammed hundreds of women in the adult business world and TV actresses.... two porn stars accepted, viewing at it as free publicity, lolz.

Mike Stone plans to make his first prom a memorable one - with a Los Angeles porn star as his date.
Stone, of Oakdale, created Internet buzz this week after two women with triple-X websites agreed to go with him to the May 12 Tartan High School prom.
He isn't sure if he can overcome the objections of school officials, or raise the money for his dates' airfare. But if even one of the women accompanies him to prom or anywhere else that evening, it will be a date to remember.
Patty Phillips, superintendent of the North St. Paul-Maplewood-Oakdale district, said Wednesday, March 21, that the porn stars would not be allowed at the prom.
She cited the the school's "standard prom procedures" and two other district rules that would keep them off school property.
Stone, 18, doesn't expect any trouble from his parents. "My mom was a little mad, but my dad is OK with it," Stone said in a telephone interview Tuesday.
In January he realized that as a senior, the spring prom was his last chance - he had never been to one.
But he had no date. Then he remembered a 2004 movie called "The Girl Next Door," in which a teenage boy and a former porn actress fall in love.
Inspired, he spent most of January and February sending Twitter messages to about 600 celebrities, including hundreds of porn actresses.
Stone didn't woo them with soaring poetry or showers of rose petals. Typical tweets were: "hey Lyndah can u make it to my prom" and "hey nat are you booked up
on may 12?"
It worked.
Last weekend porn actress Megan Piper responded via Twitter, Stone said. She said he would need to pay for her airfare from Los Angeles.
A short time later, porn star Emy Reyes also said she would be Stone's prom date.
Stone has launched a fundraising drive. A tweet from Stone on Sunday said, "Hey everyone please help me raise to buy Emy Reyes a plane ticket so she can come to my prom on May 12."
Stone said he has no specific plans for the date. "I will take them to dinner, then the dance," he said. He plans to rent a tuxedo.
On Twitter and on several websites, many readers cheered him on as a kind of teenage folk hero.
Other postings attacked him, such as this one: "To ask a porn star (total stranger) to the prom...says to me, 1.) He thinks he's going to get lucky; and 2.) wants to impress his friends; or 3.) he can't get a school date."
