It even made the New York Times! (See link below.) But the story on gaynewswatch has more, um, meat.
A corruption investigation in the Vatican has uncovered a gay prostitution ring in which members of an elite Vatican men's choir were solicited for sex on behalf of Angelo Balducci, 63, himself a prominent official and Papal Gentleman, or lay attendant of the Roman Catholic pontiff.

In 72 pages of transcribed wiretaps, Ehiem tells Balducci about one possible candidate: "Angelo ... I'll say no more. Two meters (6-foot-7), 97 kilos (250 lbs.), 33 years-old and completely active (top)."
In later calls, Ehiem offered fewer details: "I have a situation in Naples."
"I have a Cuban situation."
"I have a German who just arrived from Germany."
"I have two black guys."
"I have the soccer player."
"I have the dancer from RAI," the Italian TV network.
Some of the young men were seminarians or attended ecclesiastical colleges in Rome. On one occasion, Balducci is heard saying, "He, when does he have to return to the seminary?"
In one wiretap from last December, Renzi is heard explaining the rules of engagement: "You'll get up to 2,000 euros ... Do not touch his balls. You need the money. Put on some music, take out the [inaudible], swallow the Viagra, and adelante!"

"Do not touch his balls"?
What kind of prostitute is that?

Oh, sorry. It's the client's balls that mustn't be touched.

How do you solve a problem like Balducci?
How do you catch a whore and pin him down?
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”
