Is Salman Rushdie Sexual Napalm?

I watch Top Chef every week. Everytime I watch the show I ask myself how Salman Rushdie ever managed to be with Padma Lakshmi. I put it down to Padma just having a thing for old guys. I mean her boyfriend who just died was even older than Salman. But after Padma, Salman ran through a string of women in their 30's even though he is 64, and now a woman in her 20's is saying that Salman broke her heart and that he was un-chivalrous. Seriously, I know the guy is an author and he probably has a few bucks, but he is not gorgeous so I figure he must just have some kind of charm that is like a magnet. Do any of you find him sexy? The woman above is Devorah Rose who is doing the complaining about Salman. They met over the summer and went on a date or two and Devorah says they had a romance and Salman says they did not. He did write on her Facebook that he had a great time on their date and that she looked "hottt." Yes, the acclaimed author went with the three ttt ending to hot. So what is it about Salman? Is it the fact he had a bounty on his head? Is that still active by the way? Do you collect if you kill him? I know he was in hiding for a few years so maybe that improved his game. Maybe he worked on pickup lines those years in hiding.
