#1 Hooker Talks About Client 9's Hooker
Natalie McLennan, the high-class escort once profiled in New York magazine as the "$2,000 an-Hour Woman," has a new book coming out about her escapades (The Price: My Rise and Fall As Natalia, New York's #1 Escort), and the Post has excerpts mentioning a notable figure: Ashley Dupre, also known as Kristen, the hooker that former Governor Eliot Spitzer had a fling with. McLennan and Dupre both worked for Jason "King of All Pimps" Itzler; McLennan recalled their work together, "Ashley and I were amazing toge

ELLIOT SPITZER HOOKER ASHLEY DUPRE DIANE SAWYER 20/20 INTERVIEW VIDEO
Diane Sawyer interviewed, Ashley Dupree, the hooker of disgraced NY Governor Eliot Spitzer on a special edition of 20/20. Ashley Dupre wore a conservative outfit during the chat and did her best not to look like the Girls Gone Wild hooker she is in real life.  It's pretty interesting that the same hooker who is cashing in on her sex scandalous 15 minutes of fame is now saying "don't call me a prostitute." Ashley Alexandra Dupre now prefers to say she is a former "escort&

Rush & Molloy: Memoir has Ashley Dupre hook
Eliot Spitzer's favorite hooker, Ashley Dupre, may be wilder than even the ex-guv suspected, according to a former top escort who says she used to turn tricks with her. Natalie McLennan, who used to make $2,000 an hour working under the name Natalia, plays coy in her new memoir about her supposed acquaintances with rockers Lenny Kravitz, Fred Durst and photographer Peter Beard. But she spares no detail when it comes to Dupre. "I don't mind taking my clothes off," McLennan quotes Dupre as saying when t

Leibovitz Shock: Miley Photog to Shoot One-Year-Old! [Scandal]
Terrible celebrity photographer Annie Leibovitz has been documenting the development of the innocent young New York Times Building, and tomorrow she is going to drape it in a sexy sheet and photograph it. So watch out! She's going to do this in a helicopter, flying well below standard FAA restrictions, and then she'll shoot some wolves. They had to write a letter to the neighbors apologizing in advance for having a famous controversial celebrity photographer hanging around in a helicopter all day while they

Former Governors Cuomo, Pataki and Spitzer Hope the NY Sun is Saved
The NY Sun, which announced its future was uncertain last week, has been racking up support from prominent people. Not only do Mario Cuomo and George Pataki sing the Sun's praises (Pataki says it's "the best paper in New York" while Cuomo said, "I like understanding from the op-eds and editorials the conservative view of things"), Eliot Spitzer gives his first public comments since his scandal: "The Sun has been a spectacular addition to the city's political discourse and is one of the finest papers in te

American Magazine Conference Reflects Industries Lowered Expectations
The annual Magazine Publishers of America Conference dropped 14% in attendance, which is no surprise seeing as how there is 50% less magazines out now then a year ago, and only 25% of last year's staff left (all except that first number are made up figures). Adam Moss' New York cover of Eliot Spitzer with his brain in his dorkle won Best Cover, but what people will really be talking about (besides the fact that Ah-nuld showed up to bemoan the state of things), but what everyone will really be talk

How Long Until Ashley Dupre Becomes a Handbag Designer?
Ashley Dupre, the hooker who serviced former NY governor Eliot Spitzer, was on 20/20 last night telling her side of the story.  I’m always suspicious of people who cry without the presence of tears.  She absolutely seemed fake and scripted to me.  I love the way Diane Sawyer looks at her.  She communicates “Wow, you are really fucking stupid” without even saying a word.  Anyway, Dupre says she’s intelligent but she also didn’t know she was screwing the governor of NY.

Ashley Dupre is an Escort, Not a Prostitute
“I think that prostitution is only about sex, whereas an escort… is more … it’s time spent. It’s a lot more than that.” - Ashley Dupre In an interview with Diane Sawyer on ABC’s 20/20, the hooker who serviced New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer opened up about the scandal that ended his career and made her a celebrity. She dispensed many deep thoughts such as the one above. It’s all part of her ongoing publicity tour, as “that girl” gives interviews for

As The Stock Market Tumbles, Call Girls Reap The Rewards
Six months after a sex scandal ousted Eliot Spitzer from office, the New York governor turned “lov gov” is working in real estate, still with his wife Silda, and wondering how it all went so wrong. Meanwhile, call girls are back in the spotlight—and working harder than ever as Wall Street takes another tumble.  According to Columbia researcher and call girl expert Sudhir Venkatesh, working girls may benefit from the nation’s latest financial troubles.

Spitzer: Out of Public Office, But Still Feisty
The NY Times checked in on former governor Eliot Spitzer six months after his resignation from office. Though remorseful about what he's put his family through, he's still got some spark. Apparently an August Times article, featuring his successor David Paterson's critical thoughts on Spitzer's reign, prompted him to call a Paterson aide and demand a public apology, allegedly "issu[ing] threats, veiled and unveiled." Spitzer is working for his father's real estate business; when recently asked him how he

Politicians That Look Like Cartoon Characters
On the heels of CandyKirby.com’s impressive journalistic coup with “Political O-Faces,” I present to you an equally provocative report:  Politicians that look like cartoon characters.

Well, When Your Use of Yahoo Mail is Widely Publicized...
After her decision to use personal e-mail accounts, instead of official Alaska state e-mail for state business (perhaps to circumvent subpoenas!), has been widely publicized, of course computer hackers would break into one of Governor Sarah Palin's Yahoo mail accounts with screenshots posted on WikiLeaks (also on Gawker). And of course the McCain-Palin campaign issued a statement, calling the matter a "shocking invasion of the governor's privacy and a violation of law." The FBI and Secret Service are curr

Magazine Enterprise Recognizes Standouts in Dying Industy
The Magazine Publishers of America will announce the winners of the their 2008 Cover Awards this Monday, which is sort of bittersweet news for an industry which is going down the shitter at an alarming rate. Well hey, it's like Michael Scott said in last night's weight-loss episode of The Office, "I don't care what any stupid scale says, you guys are all gigantic losers." Pictures of the three candidates up for 2008 Cover of the Year, after the jump:   Here's hoping

Eliot Spitzer’s call girl lands a record deal.
The call girl in the middle of the Eliot Spitzer scandal has landed a record deal. She has just been signed to Violator Records, the same company behind rappers Busta Rhymes and Missy Elliot. Ashlee Dupree shot to fame when her relationship with married politician Spitzer hit the headlines in March. Ashlee Dupre benefited from the exposure and her songs Move Ya Body and What We Want, both posted on her MySpace page went on to receive over 3 million hits. A source confirms, “She deserved a fair shak

There's Love for the Sun; Spitzer Calls Paper 'Spectacular'
The New York Sun published a story today that quoted ex-politicians and a few semi-retired journalists saying that it would be a terrible thing if the newspaper closed later this month. In his first public interview since resigning, Eliot Spitzer says, "The Sun has been a spectacular addition to the city's political discourse and is one of the finest papers in terms of editing, writing, and analysis that one can find anywhere." (The Sun was one of the few outlets sympathetic towards Mr. Spitze

Who Still Laughs At Eliot Spitzer [Celebrity Science]
For the most part, it would seem, Eliot Spitzer lives a remarkably palatable life, given that he was humiliated and forced to resign as New York governor just six months ago in a prostitution scandal. Spitzer's marriage is intact; he has plenty of well-paying work to do at his father's real estate firm; and he is able to run through Central Park and walk around the city because " he hasn’t gotten a lot of negative stuff out in public," an old friend told the Times. Spitzer has even received well-wishes fr

Paterson and the National (Fake) News Spotlight
Governor David Paterson is set to appear on the Colbert Report tomorrow, according to his official schedule. Paterson's predecessor Eliot Spitzer appeared on the show, and tried to out-funny the faux-conservative anchor, leading to a profoundly unamusing segment. In practical terms, it should be a chance for Paterson to grab some of the national exposure he sort of missed out on at the Democratic convention last week, at which a) Chuck Schumer forgot to introduce him at a breakfast in front of the New York

Ex-high class call girl Ashley Dupre now eyeing singing career?
Sources have revealed that the 23-year-old has signed manager Chris Lighty, with high profile client list such as 50 Cent, Busta Rhymes and Missy Elliott, to help her in her pursuit of a music career. Dupre, who moved to New York City at the age of 19 to get her chords heard, had apparently swayed from her dreams to other career choices, reports the New York Post. She had been dubbed as an ‘informant’ during the Eliot Spitzer prostitution scandal which saw the politician patronising a prostitut
