Video: Hipster Grifter Speaks

You didn't think you'd heard that last from the hipster grifter Kari Ferrell, did you? AnimalNY's Bucky Turco and Deadspin's A.J. Daulerio somehow lured her over for an in-person photo shoot, video confessional and sports talk. No word on whether the session included any of her patented mouth handjobs. Surely that video will hit the internet soon enough, until then, enjoy Ferrell's apology here:

Well, that clears everything up, doesn't it? Oh and hey Vice, send money! Once a grifter, always a grifter.

    Look, do we REALLY need to see yet another Kari Ferrell Hipster Grifter Story?



    Really?



    Beyond that, as I've said before, to paraphrase Nobel Prize winning economist Milton Freedman "There Are No Free Blowjobs"



    We live in a country where male/female sex relations are commodified - that is, if you want a pretty young woman like Ferrell to give you a handjob with her mouth - or to let you throw your tiny little "hotdog" down her "hallway" you are going to have to pay for it



    Some women do it the subtle way, with expensive dinners or consumer goods.



    Keri womans up and demands cold cash money on the table before you get to suck on those beautiful tattooed breasts of hers [and by the looks of em in this video, they're worth every penny she charged you losers!].



    And I respect her for it.



    So fellas, MAN UP and quit your pathetic whining!



    You had your fun.



    And Keri got your cash.



    And that's the way the world works, guys!



    And ladies?



    Don't hate the playa - hate the game!



    - another communique from the K.F.L.F. - Keri Ferrell Liberation Front!

  • MrCow

    why can't we just arrest her and be over with it?

  • mmelnick

    Gothamist has officially jumped the shark

  • tylerette

    does she remind anyone else of mickey mouse?

  • FutureMan83

    "Seacrest out"?



    For a hipster, she is not very clever.

  • Amanda Harletsch

    she look like a 12 year old little fat boy. not hot.... or is it?



    she's boring....but i do find amusing and fascinating the mob mentality when it comes to hating hipsters...specially when "they" have a fat boys face plus one dumb ass tattoo and brain to match.

  • GREGORYABUTLER

    Amanda - calling her "fat" and "ugly" does NOT MAKE YOU PRETTY, because insecurity is not attractive!



    She's hot - I know it, you know it, those hipster geeks who gave her cash in return for sex know it too!



    But there can be more than one pretty woman in the world at a time you know!



    She can be pretty and you can be pretty too - you don't have to call her "ugly" to make men think you're cute!

  • Clarice City

    Looks like she survived her cancer. Too bad.

  • Gothamist_Cynic

    Gothamist and you guys fell for one of the biggest publicity stunt in years. BTW anyone thinks she looks like Bobby Lee?

  • no_dancing

    Does this lady not have a lawyer? Uh, hello, McFly, that's what we in the law call a CONFESSION!

  • jaycjay

    "that's what we in the law call a CONFESSION!"



    There's absolutely not a confession to any illegal activity in that video. Anyone "in the law" should easily be able to recognize that.

  • Clarice City

    Did she catually say "Seacrest out" at the end of that tape? Like the Seacrest guy from tv? What the f-ck? Someone please tell me that my hearing is failing.

  • Clarice City

    I hate moveable type.

  • Clarice City

    Not to mention the photos posted on Animal of her posing with a cash fan and mocking her victims. The judge will take no pity when it comes time for sentencing.

  • pointsguy

    She's neither a hipster nor a grifter. Instead, she's just a failure. And ugly too.

  • YELLOWFOOT

    um did she really say seacreast out? Really this girl is a major loser down to the strategically place picture I the background

  • edgeland

    kari farrell has a head like a f%*$ing melon.

  • just saying

    video won't play for me :-(

  • whitecastlerock

    me no speak hipsterese

  • jaycjay

    If Vice hasn't paid her for the last week she worked... they're the real Hipster Grifters.



    Yeah, think about it. They had this all planned out. What Internet-aware person or company would hire somebody without Googling their name?



    So they probably knew her background from the beginning, but decided to say nothing until they got some free labor out of her. Then went public with the story so they could fire her, thinking that she'd disappear out of a combination of embarrassment and fear of arrest and they'd never have to pay her.



    It's just like in the movies. They grifted the grifter!

  • Pharmer

    Was she trying to be cute with that video? She should have just stuck to the apology instead of adding in all that paycheck and Seacrest out crap.

  • Ed

    How is she different than 50% of the women out there ?

  • GREGORYABUTLER

    MY POINT EXACTLY



    EVERY WOMAN has sucked a dick to get cash from a guy - they just call it "dating". Ferrell is at least honest about what she's doing. And, on the real, if you're going to pay for sex [and men, we all know that Every Man Pays For It] why not have the transaction be open and above board.



    Dollar for dollar and blowjob for blowjob, she's probably a real bargain compared to the average New York woman!



    The sex you receive relative to the cash you shell out ratio is probably pretty good compared to the average New York City girlfriend, if you stop and analyze it.



    So, instead of attacking Keri Ferrell, the hipster boys of Williamsburg should be nominating her for sainthood (or at least petitioning the City Council to name a street after her!)



    Or maybe it's really the hipster girls of Williamsburg who are hating on Keri!



    After all, if your boyfriends can get sex from her cheaper than they can from their girlfriends, that is a game changing situation!



    So they have to attack their competitor!

  • Bernie Madoff-Goetz

    I wouldn't fuck her with Jen Carlson's dick.

  • felixthecat2

    She might be Kim Jong-Il's biological daughter - thus explaining the psychosis. (LOL on this poster comment)

  • felixthecat2

    forget her, she is wearing a t-shirt McCain 2008, bleh. I agree, she is a TROLL

    http://gawker.com/5214573/kari-ferrell-hipster-grifter-the-illustrated-life

  • Huffy6241

    She's hot - if you're into face-fucking asian boys.

  • pudeljung

    what does it mean when she says "and to Gawker... whats up"??



    I no understand.

  • felixthecat2

    probably because Gawker wrote nasty stuff about her. Interesting blog about her, what a horrible girl.

  • Wza

    I miss the old NY.

    More interesting characters from back in the day, not this hipster bullshit.

  • Lesliepbg

    Notice how she closes her eyes and her head goes back andforth in a "no" fashion each time she apologizes. Means she's lying.

  • citizenerased

    Oh god, been watching 'Lie to me'?

  • contro

    Body language you say?

  • Steven

    She is no different than the likes of Kim Kardashian, Paris Hilton etc.

  • contro

    She's A F*ing TROLL!

  • dwayno

    ha!

  • LongShanks

    A Gothamist guide to people I would sleep with...



    Those who ride segways? Check. This Korean slut's face? Check. Now scrape the scabies off this page and get to something worth watching... like old Park Slope teachers droppin' the N-bomb. Where's the video on THAT, kids?

  • Rocknrope

    Grrr...this vid pisses me off because she reminds me of a few golddiggin' ho's I've known. They lead with this fakeass apology then launch into "Yeah, so...didn't you owe me money?" Pity she didn't try to grift the Craigslist killer.

  • NannyState

    She probably would have offed him. Come to think of it, you're absolutely right!

  • contro

    You mean she gave the reporter a handjob with her mouth?

  • matty

    I'm I the only one who noticed the marilyn monroe poster with mickey mouseboobs?

  • felixthecat2

    boobs. ;O

  • felixthecat2

    No, I noticed those boobs, in fact it was the first thing I noticed since this girl doesn't have much boobs. ;D. she is kind of cute not a troll.

  • contro

    I like korean girls and she is not one of them that I'd wanna be with.

  • felixthecat2

    I don't want to hook up with her but I just noted that she is cute. My girl is latina and she is HOT.

  • onevalianteffort

    She is cute like a pug but not cute like Victoria Secret Model!



    She kind of looks like the character that is stamped onto the packaging of instant ramen noodles.

  • citizenerased

    Disappointed she didn't lead in with "Hi...I'm Hipster Grifter"

  • felixthecat2

    She is not to hard on the eyes, a little cute but not cute enough for me to trust her with my wallet.

  • felixthecat2

    i meant too no to. typo, don't gripe please.

  • (sob)

    Make it stop...Make it stop...



    Kidding. I don't care either way at this point but that is an Odd Print behind her.

  • s0me_g0d

    Carlson, you dumb hipster bitch...

  • contro

    LOL!

  • marcasm

    Big news day, light sabers and grifters.

  • hotstepper

    boring.

  • Crooklyn Dodger

    Wait, really? Ya'll posted that? Really? Thats it? Gothamist should have a higher standard of what they post. She gave ya'll zip, zero, nadda. She made ya'll look like tools. Granted, she did one thing great, she still brought all of us back to comment, and to watch, and to view your site. So, on that note job well done. But she did prove that you will post, ANYTHING.

  • dwayno

    i enjoyed it. i think if you want serious news 24/7 and don't ever want to be entertained you should check out cnn.com, c-span.org, or bbc.co.uk

  • CNN.com isn't exactly serious news all the time, either...



    CNN: Pastors encourage Twittering in church

  • dr zippy

    and yet you keep reading and commenting... guess Gothamist is doing something right.

  • Crooklyn Dodger

    "she still brought all of us back to comment, and to watch, and to view your site." Way to read genius:)

  • dr zippy

    Crooklyn Dodger, yeah, sorry that was pretty dumb of me.

  • dwayno

    "Once a grifter, always a grifter." ha! this is why gothamist.com is my home page.

  • pudeljung

    hipsters are morons. She's the least of the problem.

  • Rocknrope

    Disgusting. Is there a bounty on her head yet?

  • GREGORYABUTLER

    A bounty on her head for what?



    For making trust fund losers pay her for sucking their little limp dicks?



    Most women disguise their payments for sexual services as 'dates' - Keri is woman enough to demand payment up front for services rendered, and I respect her for it!

  • pudeljung

    That clears it up alright! I mean, everything except her being wanted by the police.

  • FunChop
