A very popular social media star Australian playboy nicknamed Candyman had seven ambulances scrambled to his mansion during a sottish s*x party.
Travers Beynon kept his yearly fantasy at his Queensland home, also known as the Candyshop Mansion, on Saturday night. Paramedics answered six separate calls for help between 7:40 pm and just after 11 pm to treat “drunk and drugged” revellers.
Candyman, who owns FreeChoice Australia, provided food, drinks and entertainment free of charge, but prospective partygoers had to send a photo and fill out a questionnaire asking about their ‘freakiest traits’.
Once inside the grounds of the sprawling home revellers were treated to a fireworks display as a topless DJ provided beats and Candyman himself arrived on a speedboat wearing a bizarre black outfit.
That’s because behind the party boy image are cigarette vending machines and tobacconists – Free choice, where Beynon is managing director and majority owner. It’s bricks and mortar business posting higher profits but battling pressure as we smoke less. It’s also a business whose executives have been accused of scorning the law and files multiple lawsuits against alleged corporate transgressors.
