History Main / HookersAndBlow

* Shows up in the ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAuto'' games. Trevor from ''[[VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoV GTA5]]'' appears to be the deconstruction of this concept. He's a successful bank robber who earned wealth by scoring big in the heist game but by throwing away his money on the aforementioned Hookers And Blow (he's definitely a meth addict and his personality suggests he probably pays for sex on top of it), he's relegated himself to a rather pathetic existence by the time the events of the game roll around (stuck in the middle of a dusty nowhere town living in a disgusting trailer).

* Used in ''Film/LordOfWar'' - though, mostly, secondhand. After a particularly bad bit of business, the eponymous gunrunner's brother and business partner runs away and is later found in a hotel-room having made a map of Ukraine out of cocaine, while two hookers lie passed out on his bed. Yuri Orlov himself also does an occasional line of coke, but never to the point of addiction.

* In ''Film/{{Downfall}}'', after Hermann Fegalein, Eva Braun's brother-in-law, is tracked down to be executed for abandoning his post during the battle of Berlin, he's found in a hotel used by [[ScrewTheWarWerePartying soldiers and civilians throwing a wild party.]] The room he's occupying he shares with a nude woman, has booze bottles strewn about, and there are several lines of cocaine on a nearby dresser.

* At least one episode of ''Series/{{Satisfaction}}'', which focusses on a group of Melbourne {{High Class Call Girl}}s, depicted this trope from the prostitute's point of view after one of them was hired to spend an evening with a booze-and-drugged up rock star.

* The House Of Truth's first Wrestling/RingOfHonor incarnation was a PowerStable of hedonist party animals, whose leader, Truth Martini, was frequently seen smoking. The "hoopla hotties" he deployed were officially entertainers, and really little more than errand runners, distractions and in the case of Seleziya Sparx, [[DarkActionGirl a deceptively powerful enforcer]], but as Sparx later revealed, the women CasanovaWannabe Matt Taven was frequently spotted with had been hired by her, suggesting hookers were among the benefits the HOT provided if one lacked [[KavorkaMan Martini's charm]].

* In ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' Jiraiya takes Naruto's money, claiming he wants to protect [[ChildrenAreInnocent Naruto from this trope]]. Naruto later finds him in a bar, drunk off his ass and entertaining two prostitutes.[[note]] Well, OK, it's not explicitly said that they're prostitutes, given that this is an anime geared towards middle-school-aged boys, but it's implied.]][[/note]] This is an especially jarring example because Jiraiya is actually a very wealthy man, yet [[KickTheDog he stole Naruto's money to fund his vices]] (and Naruto is very poor).

** In another episode, a commercial parody for ''Samuel Adams Boston Lager'' features three businessmen having lunch. One orders a Sam Adams, and the others remind him of his outstanding [=DUIs=], but he insists he needs something to wash away the taste of weed and hooker-spit. [[NotSoDifferent One of the other businessmen then changes his order to a Sam Adams as well]]

-->''But I couldn't tell you where I spent last night.''

** Invoked by Representative Robert Wexler at the 4:15 mark of [[http://www.colbertnation.com/the-colbert-report-videos/72021/july-20-2006/better-know-a-district---florida-s-19th---robert-wexler this clip]] when asked to say something that would lose him his upcoming election ([[ItMakesSenseinContext he was uncontested]]). This was [[CompletelyMissingThePoint inexplicably]] cited by actual journalists as an example of why politicians should be wary of going on the ''Report'' (and by extension ''Series/TheDailyShow''), as if Wexler had been the victim of ManipulativeEditing. Colbert asked him ''on camera, in character'' to say that he liked cocaine and hookers. [[DontExplainTheJoke That was the joke.]] In a rare example of Colbert going "out of character" as it were, he took the time to call out the media for essentially doing exactly what they were accusing him of doing.

* In ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' Jiraiya takes Naruto's money, claiming he wants to protect [[ChildrenAreInnocent Naruto from this trope]]. Naruto later finds him in a bar, drunk off his ass and entertaining two prostitutes.[[note]] Well, OK, it's not explicitly said that they're prostitutes, given that this is an anime geared towards middle-school-aged boys, but it's [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar implied heavily.]][[/note]] This is an especially jarring example because Jiraiya is actually a very wealthy man, yet [[KickTheDog he stole Naruto's money to fund his vices]] (and Naruto is very poor).

* A RealLife video-game example in 2016, whereby the lead producer of ''Ant Simulator'' [[http://www.gamewatcher.com/news/2016-01-02-ant-simulator-cancelled-after-business-partners-spend-crowdfunding-money-on-booze-and-strippers found out]] his partners were using Kickstarter funds for, among other things, booze and strippers. [[note]]His partners, on the other hand, claim that he was "taking control of company property, bank accounts, social media accounts, and so on."[[/note]]

** Used liberally by Frank Costello in ''Film/TheDeparted''. Subsequent journalism revealed that "snort cocaine off hooker's ass" was on Creator/JackNicholson's real-life filmic [[IncrediblyLamePun bucket list]].

* Charlie Wilson (a Member of Congress from Texas), in ''Film/CharlieWilsonsWar''. He's indicted and later acquitted of doing cocaine with strippers and a playboy model in Vegas. In RealLife he was known for his laid-back ways and liberal social views (and lifestyle--hey, it was TheSeventies!) before he latched on to the UsefulNotes/SovietInvasionOfAfghanistan as a worthwhile pet issue.

* ''Film/SaintLaurent'': Yves Saint Laurent's life descends into decadence that includes plenty of coke-fueled dalliances with rent boys and gigilos. The rival film about his life, ''Film/YvesSaintLaurent'', is less focused on this period in his life but still portrays it.

* In ''Film/{{Downfall}}'', after Hermann Fegalein, Eva Braun's brother in-law, is tracked down to be executed for abandoning his post during the battle of Berlin, he's found in a hotel used by [[ScrewTheWarWerePartying soldiers and civilians throwing a wild party.]] The room he's occupying he shares with a nude woman, has booze bottles strewn about, and there are several lines of cocaine on a nearby dresser.

* In the Lorenzo Carcaterra novel ''Sleepers'', one of the guards from the reformatory later becomes a crooked cop and it is strongly implied that womanizing and snorting coke are his primary pasttimes.

* Not exactly blow, but "Hey, now!" Hank Kingsley in ''Series/TheLarrySandersShow'' has been known to sooth his troubles through boozed-up sex marathons with prostitutes when the going gets tough.

-->''At that time I, the Lord, will make Judah and Jerusalem prosperous again. Then in Judgment Valley, I will bring together the nations that scattered my people Israel everywhere in the world, and I will bring charges against those nations. They divided up my land and gambled to see who would get my people; they sold boys and girls to pay for prostitutes and wine.'' (Contemporary English Version)

* What Herb Abrams of the short lived UWF spent his free time on. His last moments of life were spent naked (or only in his underwear) with two prostitutes and a mountain of cocaine. He even used this trope as a ''recruiting tool'' for a manager he ended up hiring.

* A RealLife video-game example in 2016, whereby the lead producer of ''Ant Simulator'' [[http://www.gamewatcher.com/news/2016-01-02-ant-simulator-cancelled-after-business-partners-spend-crowdfunding-money-on-booze-and-strippers found out]] his partners were using Kickstarter funds for, among other things, booze and strippers. [[note]]His partners, on the other hand, claim that he was "taking control of company property, bank accounts, social media accounts and so on."[[/note]]

* Internet comedy duo WebVideo/{{Britanick}} have a hilarious short video called [[https://www.youtube.com/user/BriTANicKdotcom#p/u/8/lzphtZoN350 "Taint Monopoly"]] where Nick calls Brian, asking him if there's going to be cocaine at his party. Brian response of course not, to which Nick wonders what they're going to do with the "girls" ...

* WebVideo/BennettTheSage invokes this as a joke regarding ''Franchise/{{Gundam}}'''s status as a CashCowFranchise for ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamWingEndlessWaltz'' as a little girl asked why there's still war, Bennett for a skit as her grandfather said "Because [[Creator/BandaiNamcoEntertainment Bandai]] needs that coke and whore money," before Bennett!Grandpa corrects himself and added, "I mean, milk and cookies money."

* Rod Ross' [[TheMafia mafia gang]] in ''Manga/DeathNote'' was involved with selling drugs, and had a steady string of women implied to be prostitutes snuggling up with the higher-ups (except Mello, who wasn't interested.)

The term is common slang for what some politicians, celebrities, and {{Corrupt Corporate Executive}}s like to have at parties.[[note]]Also the single funniest response to the job interview question "What are your weaknesses?", next to [[Franchise/{{Superman}} "Kryptonite"]], although the latter doesn't risk losing you the job.[[/note]] [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wine,_women_and_song Wine, women, and song]] is an older, related term.

* ''Webcomic/PvP'' [[http://www.pvponline.com/1999/11/11/ referenced this during a D&D session when the party was rewarded]]. It later got put [[http://www.pvponline.com/2008/05/22/ale-and-whores-return/ on a T-shirt]].

* ''Series/JessicaJones'' sees Jeri indulge, quite literally, [[spoiler:while coming to terms with her ALS diagnosis and threatened ouster from the firm.]]

* A RealLife video-game example in which the lead producer of ''Ant Simulator'' [[http://www.gamewatcher.com/news/2016-01-02-ant-simulator-cancelled-after-business-partners-spend-crowdfunding-money-on-booze-and-strippers found out]] his partners were using Kickstarter funds for, among other things, booze and strippers.

** First of, Roger, the Smith family alien. Though he's mostly TheAlcoholic, he's an unabashed hedonist who does drugs whenever the opportunity arises, and occasionally indulges in weird sex (despite not having human genitals).
