Reply #63: Have you ever been around a Celebrity?

[Daveparts still]

Male celebrities especially have women throwing themselves at them. The men become so egotistical that they think the women really love them when it's the celebrity status they are in love with.

So the idea that Letterman used his office power to bed these women is probably misguided. The women wanted to sleep with a celebrity and if it advanced their careers all the better.
