Footballer turned entrepreneur Warwick Capper entering the brothel business

It won’t be the ex-footballer’s first foray into the adult entertainment industry, but his next move could ruffle a few feathers in the City of Churches.

Former footballer and porn actor Warwick Capper has announced his latest business venture – a string of brothels across the country.

And the colourful character says that could include one in Adelaide, though South Australia’s sex work laws currently won’t allow it.

The ex-Sydney Swans and Brisbane Bears footballer, who has taken over the Westminster Secrets brothel in Oakleigh, in suburban Melbourne, said he planned to “open a new one every year”.

“I’ve got some great ads and promos lined up where I’m dressed as a pimp daddy,” Capper told the Herald Sun.

“In another one I’m dressed as 007 and I’ve got the catch cry ‘it won’t make you James Bond but it will make you Roger Moore’ … get it?”

Capper said that was just the start of his ambition for a brothel empire and he was eyeballing locations in Adelaide and Sydney, according to 7NEWS.

He said he was making the most of Victoria’s move to fully decriminalise sex work by December 1 this year.

But operating brothels remains illegal in SA, with a maximum penalty of $2500 or six months jail.

It was unclear if this would deter his proposed expansion.

Of his Melbourne brothel, he said: “The place is shit hot, it’s been refurbished and has a pole, which I will make great use of, and a spa.

“It’s great, I’ll be bringing all my sport mates here who I know like to frequent such places. There will be a long line out the door, you just wait and see.”
