Spitzer Hooker Maybe Only 17 in 'Wild' Video

Uh oh, Joe Francis! The lawyer for Governor Spitzer's call girl says she was only 17 when she made a Girls Gone Wild video a few years ago. Apparently Ashley Alexandra Dupre (known to Spitzer as "Kristen") only turned 18 a month after the video was shot. Lawyer Don Buchwald wrote in an e-mail Dupre was kicked off the GGW bus "because she was underage...It would be outrageous at the very least to play the video of an underage female on the Internet."

But Francis isn't worried; he says that the tape was made after she turned 18 and added, "The lawyers looked at the tape, and said since there is no sexual contact; it doesn't matter if she was underage. It will be released." Hey, what about the girl-on-girl action? One thing: The Palm Beach Post has a file photo of her during the GGW tour, apparently from March 2003 - when she was 17.

As for Dupre's actual legal problems, she may testify against two more prostitution rings. Besides the Emperors Club VIP where she met Spitzer, she also worked at New York Confidential as "Victoria" under notorious and self-proclaimed "King of All Pimps" Jason Itzler. When Itzler was arrested, she joined CFO Clark Krimer (who she dated) at his new prostitution ring, Velvet Traces. A Velvet Traces booker told the Post that Dupre, an aspiring singer, can really sing.

And one of the people running the Emperors Club VIP ring, 23-year-old Cecil Suwal, was released on bail earlier this week. Once a cross-country runner at NJ's Blair Academy, Suwal became involved with 62-year-old Mark Brener; he ran the business, she dealt with the money, oversaw the website and "brooded about her clients' satisfaction and her employees' reliability".

Yawn, Enough already, who can we pick on now?

just saying

"...she may testify against two more prostitution rings."

Busy girl.

The other eight probably just aren't public figures, that's all. Honestly, if you read that some rich businessman was identified as one of the johns, would you care in the least? Besides, It wasn't the FBI that turned this into a big deal. It was Spitzer's own hypocritical self-righteousness that hurt him with the public.

So it looks like Dupre's story of a hard luck life is unraveling with each passing day. It looks more and more like she's always been a loose girl.

"We must have more important news?"

Of course there's more important news, but the media is now, whether people want to believe it or not, controlled by the government. The very same government that wants to make sure its people are distracted by every little sleazy story so that the real news (the Liar-In-Chief, corporate rape of the middle class, out-of-control police, etc.) are just a minor blip on our radar. Want real news? Go to propagandamatrix.com. No sugar coating there.

On the same tip, did anyone watch South Park last night? It was along these same lines.

Let's see...

Governor Spitzer was Client #9, rihjt?

That means that there's at least eight other wealthy men involved.

We haven't been told who they are.

Still want to believe that this wasn't politically motivated?

I'm not defending Eliot Spitzer... I AM calling into question the workings and motivations of "our" FBI.

this girl is trash, plain and simple, no two ways around it. 100% pure trash.

and she's getting more and more famous by the minute. UGH. make it stop, please.

Ashley will make a good role model.

Be a hooker and slut. Sleep with high price famous people and get your name on newspapers and TV throughout the country.

"A Velvet Traces booker told the Post that Dupre, an aspiring singer, can really sing."

Really makes you wonder how it could be that the singing career never took off... and instead of becoming a professional singer she had to get breast implants and become a hooker.

I mean she must be a good singer! What better judge of singing talent could there be than a booker for a prostitution ring?

The small pic on the left says 5'2" and 112, not 5'5" and 105. I say 120 still is closer to reality, especially with the bad fake funbags added on in recent years.

And hopefully this will wind up with one more thing Joe Francis can get jammed up on.

i've always thought that the sluts who show up on those "girls gone wild" videos were whores & now i have proof.

it's sad though to know that this girl was a hooker with 3 different prostitution rings. sad.

babyhitler

is it weird that Joe Francis is now embracing his douchebag persona? All he needs is a bowler hat and a handlebar moustache.

I'm glad you guys chose the word "hooker." For some reason I keep forgetting that she was a prostitute and not just a thing on the side.

I'm not being sarcastic either.

This is getting to be in the old news section

Who cares about this youngster anymore?

I think it's getting perverted to keep her in the

lime light ,We must have more important news?

Now Paterson might have used public funds for his

sexual escapades,pushing Joe Bruno up in the political pecking order

and of course Bruno is

also under federal investigation.

The I Love NY advertisement could be changed to

I Love Grand Juries.
