Ashley Dupre vs Joe Francis “Girls Gone Wild”

It appears Ashley Dupre is not done riding the gravy train just yet. She filed a lawsuit today against “Girls Gone Wild” founder Joe Francis, claiming she never gave GGW permission to use her name and likeness to advertise videos — and she’s asking for $10 million & 12 pack of condoms.
Dupre, the call girl at the center of the Gov. Eliot Spitzer scandal, alleges in the lawsuit that GGW reps approached her while she was “socializing” at Miami’s Chesterfield Hotel back in 2003, plied her with booze, and — once she was drunk — got her to flash her moneymakers. She is upset she did not receive her hourly donation amount for the drunken time.
Once Dupre became famous, GGW released the video and used it to promote the launch of their new magazine. She was only 17 at the time, she argues, so she was not old enough and “did not understand the magnitude” of what she was doing when she was signing a release … drunk. Although she did have a fake ID, so surely she understood the magnitude of havign a fake ID and what it could get her.
Francis issued the following statement to TMZ: “We were very surprised and in fact amazed today that Ms. Dupree filed a lawsuit against Girls Gone Wild. We have not publicly released any new video of Ms. Dupree, due to corporate policy of not using footage of individuals younger than 18. It is incomprehensible that Ms. Dupree 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.”
This girl is just hilarious… Maybe she should be brought up on charges of fraud for using a fake identification card at the time, Why the police are not looking into this, and drinking underage, come on now… break the law. PAY THE PRICE!
