Dead Hooker Scandal is a broad term covering a variety of mishaps that plague politicians and celebrities, especially children's show hosts. For most politicians, the Dead Hooker Scandal is only slightly better than the Not-Dead Boy Scandal, and considerably better than being discovered with a midget at one's nethers. For celebrities, the Dead Hooker Scandal is usually just a really piss-poor public relations stunt, usually to as a ploy to avoid being recruited into Celebrity Survivor and extending their career just a bit longer.
