Meet “Kristen”; Update: $100,000 for her story?

My favorite liberal’s been haranguing me over e-mail about how prostitution is rarely a choice in any meaningful sense and why we need to crack down to keep more wayward girls from broken homes from wandering into “careers” they don’t really want. KP 1, AP 0?

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…

“I just don’t want to be thought of as a monster,” the woman said as she told the tiniest tidbits of her story. Born Ashley Youmans but now known as Ashley Alexandra Dupre, she spoke softly and with good humor as she added with significant understatement: “This has been a very difficult time. It is complicated.”…

Ms. Dupre said on by telephone Tuesday night that she was worried about how she would pay her rent since the man she was living with “walked out on me” after she discovered he had fathered two children. She said she was considering working at a friend’s restaurant or, once her apartment lease expires, moving back in with her family in New Jersey “to relax.”…

She left “a broken family” at age 17, having been abused, according to the MySpace page, and has used drugs, “been broke and homeless.”

She’ll be able to re-up with that lease once the Enquirer comes calling. Here’s her MySpace page, which is linked directly by the Times. Exit question equal time: The Today Show took a decidedly more libertarian view of high-priced call girls this morning.

$100,000 is chump change. The story is worth a lot more than that.

Monica Lewinski was offered a cool mill (or was it more) to pose nekkid. Kristen will get even better offers, due to inflation.

I read that this girl is getting hateful messages on her My Space page. These jerks must be Spitzer fans. Yeah she is a high class hooker, she probably isn’t educated, etc. The truth is that Spitzer sought her out, not the other way around.

I wouldn't look at Monica nekkid for a cool mil.

As some men would say, they wouldn’t look at Monica nekkid with someone else’s eyes.

Monica Lewinski nekkid???????

I'll bet Monica was offered money for her story provided she kept her clothes ON!

I’ve gotta imagine that Hefner will outbid that,
but he’ll want pictures.

I think it's because she'll cause it.

She ended up fronting a line of handbags - a respectable use of her name, and for a respectable profit.

This in contrast with someone else less willingly involved with Bill, who cashed in her fame in a distinctly less respectable way (and, IIRC, for a lot less - $50K).

Not bad after a shower and some mouth wash.

Sheeeet, she can make $100,000 in just two weekends at her regular gig.

She’s a prime witness in a federal case.

I think she should be in the witness protection program.

Spitzer is a mean dude, and he has connections.

Move out of New York into an area with lower cost of living and she’ll be able to live off what money she will make from the story and subsequent nude layouts.

I agree. She's a whore. I'm appalled at the Freepers who think she's done nothing wrong and who are encouraging her to sell her story!

Penthouse will pay her much much more. 7 figures. But she better strike while the iron is hot. In 6 months no one will care.
