David Copperfield's rape accuser had the forethought to take cell phone pics of the scene afterward, and didn't shower until cops got physical evidence from her, the National Enquirer reports.
The new story comes as the curtain is pulled back on Copperfeld's pickup magic. There's a pattern: He pulls women on stage as part of his act, uses code words like "mama" and "secrecy" to cue assistants into bringing the women backstage then gets their contact info, telling them he might use them again in an upcoming show, asks them where they like to vacation, and, if the vibe is right, casually drops that he owns a $45.5 million exclusive Bahamian lovenest. (It's a scenario described by our own commenters, who say Copperfield even worked his children's foundation into his pickup act.)
