Like 反逆者／反逆する Wilson I went to a sex party in LA with the rich and famous. Unlike 反逆者／反逆する, I stayed to the end. Here's what happened...

While 促進するing her memoir last week, actress 反逆者／反逆する Wilson 原因（となる）d something of a 動かす by （人命などを）奪う，主張するing that a member of the 王室の Family had 招待するd her to a 麻薬?fuelled orgy at the home of an American tech 億万長者 ten years ago.

によれば 反逆者／反逆する, the 無名の 王室の ― a male who was '15th or 20th in line to the British 王位' ― had 表面上は 招待するd her to a 中世-主題d party, but by 2am a tray laden with 麻薬s was 存在 passed around the room in 準備 for the 続いて起こるing night of 性の debauchery.

But while 反逆者／反逆する 引き上げ（る）d up her 'damsel dress' and fled the 前提s before the orgy 部分 of the evening 開始するd, when I was 招待するd to an 排除的 sex party in LA as a 新聞記者／雑誌記者, I stayed on to see what happened.

The party was held by the members-only club Snctm, which is 法案d as the most 排除的 sex club in the world. It has been the 支配する of 非常に／多数の 文書のs, 告発（する），告訴（する）／料金s $1 million for its 最高の，を越す-tier 会員の地位 and is という評判の to have hosted Gwyneth Paltrow as one of the guests at its 月毎の masquerades.

Only the beautiful, the rich and the sexually intrepid are 許すd through its doors; and with parties 定期的に 存在 thrown in LA and New York, Snctm is planning on hosting events in London within the next year.

Actress 反逆者／反逆する Wilson 原因（となる）d a 動かす last week when she （人命などを）奪う，主張するd a member of the 王室の Family?had 招待するd her to a 麻薬?fuelled orgy at the home of an American tech 億万長者 ten years ago

As 反逆者／反逆する discovered, 億万長者s and blue 血s are no strangers to public naughtiness, and the sex parties beloved by the tech 巨人s of California's Silicon Valley are, 井戸／弁護士席, the stuff of legend.

Over the course of an evening I wi tnessed a 広大な／多数の／重要な many 注目する，もくろむ-openers ― threesomes, married couples having sex with each other, married couples having sex with other people and some sort of tabletop 器具／備品 that was used for rather indelicate 目的s.

In fact, 事実上 the only thing I didn't see was anyone cavorting in the rooftop pool, but only because it was raining that night. Sexually adventurous they may be, but this is Los Angeles and no one wants to mess up their hair.

Snctm (pronounced 'sanctum') was 設立するd 11 years ago by former real 広い地所 スパイ／執行官 Damon Lawner and in an interview he gave to Gwyneth Paltrow's lifestyle website, Goop, he explained that the club was 奮起させるd in part by the 1999 Stanley Kubrick film 注目する，もくろむs Wide Shut.

議論の的になる at the time, the movie features Tom 巡航する as a Manhattan doctor in a troubled marriage who happens upon an (a)手の込んだ／(v)詳述する masked sex party in New York.

類似して, Snctm prides itself on hosting luxurious, outrageous soir?es and on the evening I …に出席するd, it certainly lived up to its 評判.

The Dom Perignon flowed all night as guests threaded their way through the bedrooms or reclined (and did other things) on the soft leather 議長，司会を務めるs and banquettes arranged beneath sparkling chandeliers.?

As Robert Art?s, the club's managing director, explains: 'Our parties are やめる expensive to put on ― 一般に around the six-人物／姿／数字 示す. We do not 削減（する） corners as our guests 推定する／予想する an 極端に high level of service and 高級な.'

Parties are mostly held in 私的な homes, and with Snctm, a three-bedroom 半分 簡単に won't 削減（する） it. 'Because of the level of opulence we 要求する,' says Robert, 'the homes we 持つ／拘留する the parties in are usually 価値（がある） around $10 million.'

Rachel, one of the guests, agrees. 'I've been a member for going on four years, and the excl usivity and 高級な of Snctm was definitely 控訴，上告ing to me. The level of sophistication is a step above.'

Guests at the party?were an eclectic mix of aspiring models, doctors, lawyers, 商売／仕事 (n)役員／(a)執行力のあるs and CEOs and the strict 'no photography' 支配する meant phones were 押収するd on arrival, 令状s Lina Das?

There were about 100 guests at the party I …に出席するd and, at the start of 訴訟／進行s at least, it could almost have 似ているd an Oscars event ―the men resplendent in 黒人／ボイコット tie and the women in sexy, 床に打ち倒す-length gowns, with the 大多数 冒険的な masks (of the masquerade variety).

The women were 一般に in their 20s or 30s and uniformly 素晴らしい; the men, かもしれない いっそう少なく so. 'We have a very attractive member base,' says Robert, 'and to 持続する that, we are somewhat 排除 if they do not 会合，会う the 妨げる／法廷，弁護士業 of physical attractiveness.'

Guests were an eclectic mix of aspi （犯罪の）一味 models, doctors, lawyers, 商売／仕事 (n)役員／(a)執行力のあるs and CEOs. And, because of the 強調 on discretion, I'm told, celebrities feel 安全な enough to join. Phones were 押収するd on arrival; there's a strict 'no photography' 政策 and all the staff have to 調印する 非，不，無-公表，暴露 協定s.

'We have さまざまな actors, musicians and professional 競技者s,' says Robert, 'and at most of our events you'll see a recognisable 直面する.' At this particular event, yes, I spotted a 井戸／弁護士席- known model.

'We have a lot of A-名簿（に載せる）／表（にあげる） actors,' he 追加するs, 'and the celebrities will keep their masks on all night, even if it's obvious who they are. I'm often surprised by some of the celebrities who reach out to us to …に出席する an event.'

Certainly, you'd almost need to be a celebrity to be able to afford the 料金s. 入ること／参加（者）-level 会員の地位 starts at $12,500 a year (£10,000), with the next tier coming in at $50,000 (£40,000), 供給するing members with 利益s such as a reserved VIP （米）棚上げする／（英）提議する and 接近 to 私的な events.

Applicants can also buy a one-off ticket to a party for $2,500 (£2,000), but like all 十分な-time members, they first have to be 認可するd after filling in the Snctm questionnaire on the club's website.

Only three people have the VIP $1 million (£800,000) 会員の地位. 'And until one of those three leaves the club, we're no longer 申し込む／申し出ing that tier,' says Robert. One of them is 'a very famous 記録，記録的な／記録するing artist in a 禁止（する）d', and all have direct 接近 to the Snctm team, as they 一般に have a need for the 私的な events. Such events can cost anything up to $200,000 (£160,000) to 行う／開催する／段階.

Robert 追加するs: 'We've hosted them on 場所, on 私的な 計画（する）s and on ヨットs. We did one recently where we brought in a Michelin-starred chef to produce a nine-course tasting menu with ワイン pairings, and our performers put on a special show throughout the night.'

The Snctm 業績／成果s ― and the open 妨げる／法廷，弁護士業 ― are, it seems, 重要な. At the beginning of the evening, everyone seemed a tad ぎこちない with one another, although that may just have been 負かす／撃墜する to the fact that, while everyone else was fully 着せる／賦与するd, 女性（の） Snctm performers were nonchalantly wandering around with no bras on.

But as the night wore on, the alcohol did its 職業 of relaxing the guests, and by 1am they had thrown 警告を与える ― and most of their 着せる／賦与するs ― to the 勝利，勝つd. 床に打ち倒す-length gowns were 投げ上げる／ボディチェックするd aside to 明らかにする／漏らす fluttery wisps of La Perla and スパイ／執行官 Provocateur underwear, and rooms that had been empty for the first couple of hours suddenly sprang to life.?

反逆者／反逆する didn't stay for the whole duration of the sex party and?fled the 前提s before the orgy 部分 of the evening 開始するd

In one bedroom, two couples entwined with one another and ignored a violinist who serenaded them with a rendition of It Don't Mean A Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing). In another, a Snctm performer （権力などを）行使するd leather horse whips in a manner that brought to mind an 空気／公表する traffic marshall directing 計画（する）s to land. Later, an artist 雇うd by Snctm sat in the muted light and studiously sketched the scenes around him.

William, a rather dapper former CEO, …に出席するd the party with his attractive ― and age-appropriate ― wife. He explained that they joined the club after she had an 事件／事情／状勢, 'and it almost destroyed me. But we love each other and we had to find a way through this, so we joined Snctm.

'Sure, we feel a little jealousy いつかs,' he 追加するd, 'but we made a 協定／条約 to do our 調査するing together. We've 設立する that this has really invigorated our sex life. She's probably off chatting to some young buck 権利 now!'

Rachel, a 28-year-old who 作品 in tech sales, …に出席するs the parties with her fiance. 'When we first started dating, I explained to him that I was 利益／興味d in this lifestyle,' she says, 'and while I like 存在 in a 関係 with a man, sexually, I also like 存在 with women. When we're at parties we have 確かな signals. If I feel uncomfortable, I'll 小衝突 my eyebrow and he'll come over and help me; but if I'm 利益／興味d in someone, I'll rub his nose!'

Interestingly, many members comment on the social 面 of the club. Many 迎える／歓迎するd each other as old pals and, unlike many parties in LA where people are 活発に looking over your shoulder to find someone better connected to talk to, Snctm members seemed to be a friendly bunch. If you 無視（する）d the nudity, at times it felt like we were all at a rather pleasant barbecue.

As Rachel says: 'You do create some pretty unique friendships where this is all 肉親，親類d of like a secret between you.'

Snctm is also keen to 強調 the club's 高めるd safety 対策 after one individual had their 会員の地位 公然と 取り消すd six years ago for 不適切な behaviour.

There is a strong 安全 presence at events to look out for over-intoxicated guests or 破壊的な behaviour, and unlike at 反逆者／反逆する's party, 違法な 麻薬s are an 絶対の no-no. For those who transgress, Robert says: 'We have a one-strike 支配する. They don't get to explain the error of their ways ― we just 除去する them.'

While 選び出す／独身 women are welcome, 選び出す／独身 men aren't, unless they are 十分な members. Even 井戸／弁護士席-known 直面するs can be given short shrift. 'I can think of at least one or two celebrities we've turned away because they 論証するd they were going to be problematic, or would be indiscreet or uncouth.' Affirmative 同意 or 'ask before you touch', says Robert, 'is our 最初の／主要な 支配する.'

The club even 誇るs some British celebrity members. 'I can think of one on the younger 味方する who is an A-名簿（に載せる）／表（にあげる） musician,' says Robert. I did bump into a fellow Brit, who wore a 類似して 爆撃する-shocked 表現 on his 直面する as me. 'I wouldn't even know how to explain this 支援する home,' he said.

As the clock ticked に向かって 3am, I 設立する myself 試みる／企てるing to stifle a yawn. It surprised me how, after a while, even the most shocking of sights started to feel somewhat mundane. Or maybe sex clubs are a bit like needlepoint or bowls: those who do it say it's fun, but it can be a little dull to watch.

My biggest let-負かす／撃墜する though was not managing to catch sight of an A-lister. 'Some of the people who come here are 完全にする novices and want to try something new,' says Robert, 'and for others it's like a bucket 名簿（に載せる）／表（にあげる） experience.'< /p>

My 名簿（に載せる）／表（にあげる） ticked, like 反逆者／反逆する there was some 救済 as I 長，率いるd home to bed ― probably the only person to happily do so alone.
