Katherine Taylor, the escort who unintentionally gained fame for photobombing Steph Curry during an NBA game, has recently increased her hourly rates from $900 to $1500. This surge in pricing follows her sudden rise to notoriety after the incident went viral.
TMZ reports that Taylor has received messages from several professional sports stars since becoming a viral sensation, but she has chosen not to disclose their identities. Living in San Francisco, Taylor’s viral moment occurred during a Golden State Warriors game when she was captured joyfully celebrating in the background as Steph Curry performed his signature ‘golf swing’ celebration.
Admitting her identity on Twitter, Taylor humorously shared, ”God… Best date of my life as you can see. ‘Fk me, remind me to come fully dressed next time. What a fking blast.” While her Twitter account experienced a temporary deactivation due to the newfound attention, it is now back online.
Reflecting on the unexpected attention, Taylor joked earlier in the week, “It is terrifying as a woman being in the same room as Steph Curry. I wasn’t even looking at the guy and caught smoke, f***. And if you are in any way, shape, or form above average hot, yes, please just don’t be in the same room with Steph Curry. Because you will be a meme.”
In response to a viral picture where a man sitting in front of Taylor was seen looking back at her during the celebration, Taylor playfully commented, ”You’re about to get this man divorced. His wife about to come home and take the kids, dog, and the hat lol.”
During the game where Taylor gained attention, four-time NBA champion Steph Curry led the Golden State Warriors to a 125-90 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks. Curry contributed significantly with 29 points, eight rebounds, and five assists, shooting six of his ten attempts from three-point territory. Ironically, TMZ notes that Taylor is a Sacramento Kings fan rather than a supporter of the Warriors.
