“Girls Gone Wild” founder Joe Francis was arrested yesterday when he decided to show up for court five hours later than scheduled. He was hauled off to jail by U.S. marshals after the judge issued a warrant for his arrest earlier that day.
He was due in court over a request by his law firm to withdraw as legal counsel in his tax evasion case.
Francis cited the flu as the reason for his tardiness. He was immediately taken into custody. If you’re like me, then you’re thinking that’s what this d-bag gets for being late to court. Someone’s gotta show this idiot that they’re serious and he should respect the court enough to show up on time.
His defense attorney, Melissa Weinberger said that she would try to have him released after he was processed.
Francis is accused of failing to pay taxes on more than $20 million in business expenses. The tax trial is due to start in March. If convicted, he faces up to 10 years in prison.

The hotel heiress, 27, is “seen in a state of arousal in a New York taxi” in the footage, according to explosive new book Six Degrees of Paris Hilton by Mark Ebner.
 Is she checking for crabs? Paris - pictured yesterday at the Sundance Film Festival - shot to fame when footage of her romping with ex-boyfriend Rick Salomon was made public.
 She also caused a stir in 2007 when she was filmed provocatively playing with a shower head in a bath.
Mark’s book is the story of Darnell Riley, a man who took ‘Girls Gone Wild’ millionaire Joe Francis hostage at gunpoint, went on wild nights out with Mickey Rourke and boxed with Salomon - all of who he connects back to Paris.
Darnell claims he bought 14 hours of video of Hilton from two “Russian kids” who had stolen it when they broke into her home.
However, he might not be the most reliable of sources. Darnell is currently serving time in prison for trying to blackmail Francis.
As well as the racy footage, he says there are also excerpts from Paris’ grandmother’s funeral.
“She is sitting in the church shooting video of herself. She is paying no attention to the eulogy.
Paris has Brandon Davis film her when she gets up to say goodbyes to her grandmother.”

The book is set to hit shelves next month.
“Hustler” founder Larry Flynt and “Girls Gone Wild” entrepreneur Joe Francis are going to Congress to get themselves their very own bailout - to the tune of $5 billion.
America, the economy is failing. The banks are going to crap and the automakers were groveling at the feet of Congress for some bailout money. Joe Francis and Larry Flynt want you to know that the porn industry needs your help.
You’d think that with the economic crisis going full force, people would be looking to porn or alcohol (or sometimes both), but apparently that’s not the case.
Flynt and Francis are teaming up and taking their case to Congress for a heft $5 billion bailout. They’re claiming that the adult entertainment industry has taken a hit because of the economic downturn and that DVD sales are down 22% from last year.
Flynt says, “With all this economic misery and people losing all that money, sex is the farthest thing from their mind. It’s time for Congress to rejuvenate the sexual appetite of America.”
Francis sees the industry like the automakers, only much bigger. He says, “Congress seems willing to help shore up our nation’s most important businesses; we feel we deserve the same consideration.”
What do you think, should we fund this?

Joe Francis, known for his ‘Girls Gone Wild‘ franchise, went on Tyra Banks’ show today to tell the world he’s innocent in the on-going feud with Samantha Ronson, calling her a “wretched woman” who is controlling Lindsay Lohan.
Of course, Page Six immediately contacted Ronson, who fumed about one of the most “disgusting human beings in the world.”
During the episode, Francis calls Ronson “very jealous. Samantha tried to start a fight with me. I care about Lindsay - she’s not gay. She’s being controlled by this . . . wretched woman, this Samantha.”
The feud began during the VMA party on Sept. 7 when Francis approached Lohan and Ronson’s table. Ronson recalls the evening, “He said hello to Lindsay and looked over at me as if I wasn’t a human being. He’s got no manners.”
Lohan blogged on her MySpace a few weeks ago about the on-going feud. “Joe Francis has no place in saying anything about Samantha . . . especially after all the [bleep] he has done.”
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.
In the new footage being peddled at TrashleyDupre.com, a women who the site claims is Ashley Dupre can be heard moaning while masturbating with an electric pink dildo. The site alleges the footage was taken from a web cam video that was sent to Elliot himself.
Pure NSFW nastiness after the jump!

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.
Joe Francis said,
 “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”
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.”
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.

“GIRLS Gone Wild” creator Joe Francis is a free man after 11 months behind bars.
Unlike previous years, where he spent time overseeing spring break filming, Francis retreated to his office to prepare for the launch of his new “Girls Gone Wild” magazine, set to hit newsstands on April 15th.
Page Six reports,
 Francis headed straight to his office yesterday to get back to work. “We’re filming at every spring break location, 14 cities right now. We’ve got 50 or 60 camera guys out there,” Francis told Page Six from Florida, where he pleaded no contest to charges of videotaping underage girls and was released for time served.
His lawyer, Roy Black, said, “It’s a big victory for Joe. He’s such a high-energy guy. He couldn’t stand being in jail.” Francis planned to fly back to LA immediately.
Unlike past years, when he’d hit beach resorts in Florida, Texas and Mexico to oversee the spring break filming, he’ll be in his office. “I’ve got a magazine to put out,” he explained.
The first Girls Gone Wild magazine is due to hit newsstands April 15 at $9.99 a copy, poly-bagged with a full-length CD featuring drunken exhibitionist co-eds. Francis said Curtis Circulation had already lined up 50,000 retail outlets.
Let’s just hope that Francis has learned and is making sure that all those girls being filmed are over the age of 18.
Playboy better watch out… there’s a new boobie mag in town. Instead of thousands of women going to Glamour Shots and being weeded through by Hef and Holly, the inebriated college girls of America are the new prey.
For $9.99 you may be able to pick up your Girls Gone Wild magazine featuring drunken girls showing you their butterfly tattoos and lady bits. The Curtis Circulation Company confirms it will be a distribution that will feature editorials and pictorials of “the Girls Gone Wild girls.” Kinda like a slutty version of a Hooters server telling you about the new Audi her dad just bought her.
The smut hit’s the stands on April 15. I am sure it is only a matter of time before the naked co-eds are replaced by the now legal former stars of the Disney channel.

Joe Francis, creator of ‘Girls Gone Wild’ is feeling vindication on at least one charge against him. The two Florida women sho sued him claiming they did not give permission to be included in one of his cinematic masterpieces, are now saying they did and are apologizing.
 ” ‘Girls Gone Wild’ and Joe Francis have suffered as a result of this lawsuit and our actions,” Brooke Patsolic and Christina Brose said in a statement. In the video, the pair, who were both over 18, are heard consenting, with Brose crowing, “You have my full permission to put this on anything; I don’t care.” Patsolic says afterward: “Tomorrow, we’re going to be, like, ‘What the [bleep] were we doing?’ ”
Very nice ladies. But better than that is what Joe had to say:
“This is yet another example of false allegations that I have faced. I am tired of these lies being used against me in an attempt to extort money from me and destroy my name.”
Everyone knows you’re a scamming douchebag with no regard for women standup guy Joe, your name is just fine.

It’s going to be a while before Vanessa Hudgens lives down those nude photographs and risque pics that are crashing servers everywhere. Now, because of the pics, the G-Rated, Disney Star is getting offers from ‘Girls Gone Wild’ brain child Joe Francis:
Joe Francis has offered 18-year-old “High School Musical” star Vanessa Hudgens $500,000 to “join the GGW brand and lifestyle,” after a nude photo of her surfaced online last week.
In a press release issued from a Nevada prison, Joe Francis said:
“Vanessa Hudgens is the classic girl next door gone wild. Being sexual is not a crime. She took a picture, it was leaked, and now it is time to move forward with her career.”
Sounds like a logical next step in her career. Come on Joe, she messed up big time, but do you really think she’s gong to join your kiddie porn empire?

In a letter Joe Francis sent to TMZ, regarding his ‘free time’ out of his cell, Joe states:
 It is during this time that I have the fortunate privilege of meeting new “friends” such as car thieves, drug dealers and murderers.
It should make for an interesting night at HYDE when the “gang” and I get back together for a reunion.
Yeah, yeah… I hate him too, but that was pretty damn funny!
