So earlier in the week, Joe Francis made a big fucking deal of offering Ashley Alexandra Dupre, the hooker at the center of the Elliott Spitzer scandal, a million dollar pay-out to pose for Girls Gone Wild.
He rescinded the offer after GGW apparently found they already had footage of her in their archives.
Now, I think that story’s bullshit. Joe Francis may be one of the biggest assholes on the planet, but he’s a smart little fucker. And you’d better believe that sonofabitch checked the GGW archives for that girl before he offered her shit. This was all a publicity stunt on his part. He made a fool of Ashley, and now she’s out for blood.
The AP is reporting that her lawyer’s come forward saying she was only 17 when the footage was taken.
In an e-mail to one of Francis’ publicists — forwarded by Buchwald [Dupre’s lawyer] to the AP — the attorney said he was “informed by Ashley that the video was in fact taken when she was underage (that is 17).”
Buchwald added in the e-mail that Francis was aware of Dupre’s age during the filming.
Francis said he bought Dupre a Greyhound bus ticket back home to North Carolina in 2003. Dupre returned home after she spent a week on the “Girls Gone Wild” bus in Miami and filmed seven full-length tapes, which included nudity, after signing legal papers, the company said.
“It was because she was underage that he sent her home on a Greyhound bus back to North Carolina. It would be outrageous at the very least to play the video of an underage female on the Internet,” Buchwald said in the e-mail.
GGW has postponed the release of their videos of Ashley until this is all resolved.
How many underage girls do you think this dude has filmed naked???
Put him back in jail!
Regardless, it’s so very classy.
More than you know.
Why isn’t SHE getting locked up. She’s a hooker. And from what I recall, hooking is ILLEGAL. What the shit?!?!?!?!
Pimping Ain’t Easy
I agree Melissa.
While I agree that Joe Francis is scum, this chick knew what she was doing. She is an attention seeking whore-literally.
actually. he didnt offer her anything is the real story, beacuse she signed a realease (and in most states 17 is the legal age not 18, its not classed as porn so she didnt have to be 18 just old enough to legaly consent) the footage already BELONGS to him. that smart mferr is making 100% profit of those overly googled tits.
and..yeah. isnt hooking illegal? only in america would we glamorize a whore…
It’s the “Pretty Woman” syndrome bianca.
When did GGW come out? This site has a redacted ID of Ashley “Dupre” Youmans: http://www.governwhore.com. If it was before her 18th bday, then hello jailbait.
RE: “only in america would we glamorize a whore…”
This is actually an uninformed comment. In France, they had the govt openly support the president’s prostitute / mistress. I know, France is a bad example. Anyway, we are quite conservative and uptight compared to much of the rest of the world. If this worries you, it might be a good idea to keep your travels domestic … or choose to worry about more important things.
I think she’s a silly ho, but I don’t know what she’s been through or what she’s really like, so I try not to judge.
