text: Financially strapped Octuplets mom Nadya Suleman was offered $20,000 to wash her hair on video for a fetish website. Suleman who has been trying to raise money to make mortgage payments, was paid $5,000 by PETA in May to display a banner with the messasge advocating spaying and neutering pets . Suleman sold personal items at garage sale recently and appeared at a nightclub for a fee to raise money.

Suleman, who is behind in her mortgage payments, raised about $5,000 from the event. She was reportedly offered $20,000 to appear in an adult fetish film recently.
  Octuplets' mom Nadya Suleman says she will not exploit her children.
  Amer Haddadin, who owns the home where octuplets' mom Nadya Suleman lives, said she has not made mortgage payments for September and October, which total $8,120. A balloon payment of $450,000 is due Saturday. If the money isn't paid, Haddadin said he would begin forclosure proceedings next week.

  Will 30 minutes of “tickle torture” and a good hair washing save Nadya Suleman from impending foreclosure on her La Habra home?
  A fetish website has offered the mother of octuplets $20,000 if she agrees to be videotaped washing her hair and getting tickled, and a spokesman says Suleman is considering it.
  A call to Suleman’s attorney Jeff Czech went unanswered. But a website spokeswoman said they sent Suleman a letter with the offer after hearing about her financial woes when it became public that she was considering welfare and are now in communication with “her representative.”
  “The objective is 30 minutes of having her hair washed and 30 minutes of tickling,” a website spokeswoman told the Register. “It’s called tickle torture because you’re generally bound.”
  Nudity is not involved. The website is the same one that recently offered Lindsay Lohan $50,000 to pop a bunch of balloons, TMZ reports.
  Suleman has less than 60 hours to come up with $458,000. She owes $8,120 in September and October house payments, said Amer Haddadin, the lender on Suleman’s home. Another $450,000 balloon payment is due Saturday.
  Haddadin went to her attorney’s office in Santa Fe Springs Thursday to demand the September and October payments. Jeff Czech would not come out of his office though, Haddadin said, and told his secretary to tell Haddadin that there was no money.
  “I haven’t gotten anything from her,” Haddadin said after the visit.
  Suleman held a well-publicized garage sale a couple of weekends ago, telling the press she made $2,500 for selling things like an autographed bikini she wore on the cover of Star Magazine. This past weekend she made an appearance for an undisclosed amount of money at the club Carlos & Charlie’s in Ontario.
  Haddadin is holding a press conference at 6 p.m. Friday night in the front yard of the La Habra house where Suleman is living with her 14 kids to ask why she hasn’t turned that money over for the overdue house payments.
  “I want the whole public to know,” he said. Haddadin accuses Czech of “ignoring me,” and said his credit is being ruined.
  Haddadin said that if no money materializes by Saturday, proceedings to evict Suleman and her children will begin Monday.
  “We’re gonna have to take it to extreme,” he said.
  The fetish video isn’t the only option Suleman has for making money. Earlier this week an adult movie company, which has in the past offered to pay off her balloon payment if she did a porn movie, offered to pay her $1,000 a day to be a production assistant, TMZ reports.
