At the time, she was a struggling singer who drifted into a “Girls Gone†Wild video and other escapades before the Spitzer scandal vaulted her to national notoriety.
“I had a lot of fun doing these pictures. You’re naked and you’re in front of a bunch of guys, good-looking guys, too. Manly men.â€
Dupre, who looks fit in the sizzling eight-page pictorial, confesses she’s ashamed of her call-girl career.
“Some people call me the girl who brought down the governor of New York, but in reality, he brought me down.
I was an escort. As much as I wish I could make that go away, I can’t.
I watched my dreams of a singing career flash before my eyes. I saw the hurt in his wife’s eyes. I felt as if I had jumped off a building. I couldn’t breathe. I was dead.â€
Before the Playboy shoot, the only benefit to come Ashley’s way out of the scandal was a writing gig with The New York Post. She gives sex and dating advice.
“I love sex and I’m very good at it, but I’m saving that. That’s for my future boyfriend from now on. And it will be fabulous.â€
I wonder if any of the advice includes banging a politician?
Days after Ashley Dupre, the Eliot Spitzer call girl, dropped her $10 million dollar law suit against Girls Gone Wild founder Joe Francis a new sex tape emerges.
In response to questions on why she abruptly dropped her multi-million dollar suit which claimed GGW induced her into exposing her breasts while being filmed when she was only 17, her lawyer released this statement:
“Ms. Dupre wants to eliminate all negativity from her life and focus on the positive. She has prospects for many exciting new projects and is looking forward to starting a new chapter.”
Well it looks like that new chapter is going to involve a barrage of explicit videos starting with this newly released sex tape.
Joe Francis was “very surprised and in fact amazed” when he was told about the suit filed by Ashley Dupre, ex-New York Governor Eliot Spitzer’s former call girl.
Dupre, 22, filed suit Monday seeking $10 million from Francis and his company, Girls Gone Wild, for misuse of her name and image for profit.
Francis had publicly offered Dupre a $1 million deal for a Girls Gone Wild photo shoot and tour but while he was haggling with her lawyers, the GGW tapes of Dupre from 2003 surfaced and the deal was called off.
“She refused this offer and in fact if she’d like to reconsider, we’d be happy to discuss. She should keep in mind, it’s considerably more than the Governor of New York paid her, and our activities aren’t illegal.â€
Asked in March about reports Dupre was underage during the GGW shoot, Francis said, “It doesn’t matter.”
Well… obviously it did matter… that will be the ace in her pocket in court.

Now let’s meet Ashley’s pimp Jason Itzler, the self proclaimed “King of all Pimps“.
Seriously, Jason shouldn’t try to act so humble, he’s still a heavy promoter via his MySpace. He proclaims being the king of all pimps and even has Ashley’s music playing in the background.
NY Confidential was a New York escort service that operated from late 2003 until January 2005, when it was raided and the owner arrested. The case was heavily publicized in the New York yellow press.
The agency was founded by Jason Itzler (born 1967 as Jason Sylk), who previously had gone bankrupt with phone sex and webcam porn businesses. After an attempt to smuggle Ecstasy into the U.S. from Amsterdam in the late 1990s, he received a 5 year sentence and was paroled after having served 17 months. He started the agency while still under parole, subsequently living a heavy-spending lifestyle and promoting himself as “King of all Pimps”.
In January 2007, after a plea bargain, Itzler was sentenced to a year and a half to three years in prison for money laundering and attempted promotion of prostitution.
Former New York Govenor Eliot Spitzer has been linked to ANOTHER call girl ring! According to a new report, Spitzer regularly patronized Wicked Models headed by busty blonde, Kristin “Billie” Davis.
The ex-governor regularly patronized Wicked Models, the Manhattan-based operation taken down Tuesday, according to financial documents and other evidence unearthed in a yearlong prostitution in vestigation, law-enforcement sources said.
The revelation comes three weeks after Spitzer was outed as “Client-9″ in a separate federal hooker probe involving the New Jersey-based Emperors Club VIP.
At the center of the new ring is Kristin “Billie” Davis, a busty bottle blonde who hails from a rough-and-tumble California trailer park. She has a reputation for hard-partying, shameless self-promotion and a rumored 10,000-name-long client list.
Davis’ alleged multimillion-dollar empire was smashed by city vice cops as she made plans to skip town. Prosecutors say she netted some $2 million last year by pimping out ladies of the night for as much as $1,000 an hour through four Web sites.
They noted she has openly boasted of total earnings of $6 million, and has been in operation since at least 2004.
Davis, 32, pleaded not guilty to money laundering and promoting prostitution in Manhattan Supreme Court yesterday and was held on $2-million bail. She faces 15 years in prison if convicted of running the ring, which also allegedly operated the Madison La A’mour and New York Body Miracle agencies.
I’m guessing that the escort service has some sort of catalog, where you can shop for your whore?
Nice… Trashy.
What others said:
Flisted says, “America’s favorite new hooker (Sorry, Heidi Fleiss!) has definitely had some work done between now and then. Which stands to reason, because there’s no way I’d tap this ass for $5,500.”
Ha! I wouldn’t tap that ass for $50 bucks using someone else’s dick!

[Yawn]… anyway… There’s 40+ of these images, you can see the rest over at our friends place, Flisted.
Guess how Ashley spent her big day? We can exclusively reveal the first shots of the call girl’s romping week of X-rated shoots with Girls Gone Wild. The above stills are the first to surface from her raunchy video debut, Spring Break 2005: Anything Goes.
I guess if you are destined to go the path of trashy — nothing or no one can stop you.
Charlie Sheen is a reformed man these days, but back in the day…he enjoyed the pleasure of several prostitutes, one of which was Ashley Dupre — the same woman that was involved with Eliot Spitzer.
Now, the former pimp for that prostitute who got it on with soon to be ex-New York governor Eliot Spitzer is claiming that she hooked up with Sheen a few years ago.
Ashley Dupre was only 19 when she reportedly did the nasty with Sheen, costing him up to $20,000 a session.

The question I’ve been asking since New York governor Eliot Spitzer got caught with a $5000 an hour hooker has been, What in the hell could a woman do in an hour that’d be worth $5000? And how hot would she have to be?
Would I hit it? Sure. For $500 an hour? Let alone $5000? Hell no.
Background info:
She left a broken home on the Jersey Shore at 17 and came to New York City to work the nightclubs as a rhythm and blues singer. Now, at 22, she is the unwitting, and as yet unseen, star of the seamy drama that is the downfall of Gov. Eliot Spitzer of New York.
Kristen, the prostitute described in a federal affidavit as having had a rendezvous with Mr. Spitzer on Feb. 13 at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington, has spent the last few days in her ninth-floor apartment in the Flatiron district of Manhattan. On Monday, she made a brief appearance in federal court, where a lawyer was appointed to represent her. She is expected to be a witness in the case against four people charged with operating a prostitution ring called the Emperor’s Club V.I.P.
In a series of telephone interviews on Tuesday night, she said she had slept very little over the past week, with all the stress of the case. “I just don’t want to be thought of as a monster,†the woman said as she told the tiniest tidbits of her story.
She has not been charged. The lawyer appointed to represent her, Don D. Buchwald, told a magistrate judge in court on Monday that she had been subpoenaed to testify in a grand jury investigation. Asked to swear that she had accurately filled out and signed a financial affidavit, she responded affirmatively.
On the Web page is a recording of what she describes as her latest track, “What We Want,†a hip-hop-inflected rhythm-and-blues tune that asks, “Can you handle me, boy?†and uses some dated slang, calling someone her “boo.â€
“I know what you want, you got what I want,†she sings in the chorus. “I know what you need. Can you handle me?â€
Her MySpace biography says she started singing professionally after a musician she was living with heard her singing the Aretha Franklin hit “Respect†in the shower and burst into the bathroom with his lead guitarist. She says she toured and recorded with them, then moved to Manhattan in 2004 and “spent the first two years getting to know the music scene, networking in clubs and connecting with the industry. “Now it’s all about my music, it’s all about expressing me.â€
In the affidavit, the woman the Emperor’s Club called Kristen is described as “an American, petite, very pretty brunette, 5 feet 5 inches, and 105 pounds.†She apparently was booked at about $1,000 an hour, placing her in the middle of the seven-diamond scale by which the prostitutes were paid up to $4,300 an hour.
“She is a very bright girl who can handle someone like the governor,†Ms. Capalbo said. “But she also is a 22-year-old, not a 32-year-old or a 42-year-old, and she obviously got involved in something much larger than her.â€
Yeah, no joke.

“It is incomprehensible that Ms. Dupré could claim she did not give her consent to be filmed by Girls Gone Wild, when in fact we have videotape of her giving consent, while showing her identification”
