Spitzer call girl sues 'Girls Gone Wild' for $10 million
This undated image obtained from a MySpace webpage shows a woman identified as Ashley Alexandra Dupre. The New York Times reported Wednesday March 12, 2008 that the name of the woman identified as "Kristen" in court papers alleging that Gov. Eliot Spitzer paid more than $4,000 for prostitutes' services is Dupre. The Times also reported that the woman, born as Ashley Youmans, legally changed her name to Ashley Rae Maika DiPietro and is now known as Ashley Alexandra Dupre. (AP Photo) MIAMI (AP) - The call girl linked to former New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer is suing the founder of the "Girls Gone Wild" video series for more than $10 million. Ashley Alexandra Dupre filed a lawsuit Monday in Miami federal court claiming she never gave "Girls Gone Wild" founder Joe Francis permission to use her name and likeness to advertise the videos. Dupre contends she was 17 and not old enough to sign a contract when the videos were taken in 2003 in Miami Beach. A spokesman for Francis didn't immediately return a call for comment Monday. The now 22-year-old Dupre was identified in March as a prostitute named "Kristen" who had been involved with Spitzer. He has since resigned. (Copyright 2008 by The Associated Press.

Crap, she knew what she was doing and this lawsuit is her meal ticket. Judge needs to throw this case out for no merits.
