Who do you believe???

Kristin Davis is quick to say, sorry, not me. But not so fast. Every news site this morning is looking at the goods to determine, is this or isnt this Kristin?

The net is going Sex and the City Sextape crazy amid pictures (and yes there are more) and a tape, that rumor mill is asking … is it “Sex and the City’s” Kristin Davis or not?

TMZ has learned that there are 20 durrrrty photos taken five years ago by a man with a woman who looks like Davis. Says TMZ “We hear the pics were taken by an ex-boyfriend and are now being shopped by a broker from California.”

Why being shopped now? Timing, with the upcoming May premiere of the movie “Sex and the City”

Says Kristin’s rep to TMZ “tells us unequivocally that she’s seen one of the pics and “This is not a photo of Kristin Davis. There is no sex tape.” “

So far the net has yieled two sets of photos.

New York, Mar.15 (ANI): Hustler boss Larry Flynt has offered Ashley Alexandra Dupre, the prostitute who brought down New York Governor Eliot Spitzer a million dollars to pose naked for his magazine.

Flynt is convinced the high-class hooker, who works for prostitution and escort agency the Emperors Club VIP, would be a perfect fit for his men’s magazine.

Flynt says, “We think this is an item that is going to stay in the news for some time. We think it’s not bad for a 22-year-old to make one million dollars for a few hours work. It beats what she was making at the escort service.”

Dupre sex romp with Eliot Spitzer netted her a couple of thousands of dollars, but if a Daily News report is to be believed, she stands to make millions from the scandal.
Penthouse wants her on the cover, every news organization in the world wants an interview and her music is getting downloaded at rates she never could have imagined. She is said to have already earned in excess of 200,000 dollars for her songs.

Not bad for a 22-year-old runaway from New Jersey.

Dupre, known as call-girl “Kristen” in legal documents, is a key player in the Spitzer fiasco. That makes her as appealing to producers and publications as Spitzer or his wife, Silda.
Penthouse Magazine group president and publisher Diane Silberstein said she would “love to have her in the magazine” and would consider offering her a cover shot.

“She sounds like a very interesting and talented young woman, and I’m sure she has a great story to tell,” Silberstein said. “We promise to make it worth her while.”
TV programs are in the hunt, too.

“Every tabloid in the world will go after her and spend millions of dollars,” Silverstein said, noting his show follows NBC News guidelines and doesn’t pay for interviews.

“We are interested in having her on the program - as is every other morning program and media outlet - it’s a major news story,” said a spokeswoman for ABC’s “Good Morning America.”
Flynt said that by the time Dupre starts talking, she may be too big a media phenomenon for a simple magazine spread.

“She is no doubt going to do a book. There will probably be a movie,” he said. “I think she is going to have so many offers coming in that it will probably be wishful thinking just to get in the door.” (ANI)

This is a follow up to the Lohan’s Losses article on March 5, 2008. It has been confirmed that Lindsay Lohan has been dropped as the face of the Jill Stuart fashion line.

However, was she ever really a model? When I think model I think Naomi Campbell, Kate Moss, Christie Brinkley, Cindy Crawford, Iman and Giselle, to name a few. I don’t think Lindsay Lohan or Paris Hilton. Have they modeled enough to really earn that distinction? No.

Lindsay’s dismissal couldn’t have come at a worse time, as she’s blown through most of her money according to reports.

She spent $1 million to live at the Château Marmont hotel for the year of 2006, which was very unwise. She was paying per night what many pay per month for a mortgage. Yes, it’s a lovely hotel, but to live there is quite costly, especially for someone who wasn’t very rich.

She also spent close to $1 million on staff (bodyguards, publicists and stylists). It is also estimated she spent $1 million on partying, traveling, clothes, grooming and tanning.

Jennifer Aniston

According to actor Omid Djalili, Brad Pitt told him he “despised” Jennifer Aniston, six weeks into his marriage to the actress. Wow, what a nice thing to say about your wife…not!

Brad Pitt and girlfriend Angelina Jolie

I don’t believe the fault is with anyone else other than Pitt. He’s been out with a string of high profile women and dropped all of them one by one once he found someone else. I hope Angelina is paying attention.

Brad Pitt ‘despised’ Jennifer Aniston

March 14, 2008 - 8:23AM - Brad Pitt “despised” ex-wife Jennifer Aniston after just six weeks of marriage, claims actor Omid Djalili. Omid, who met Brad on the set of Spy Game in 2000, gave the actor marriage advice after Brad admitted he wasn’t happy with Jennifer.

The British comic star revealed to Britain’s Daily Express newspaper: “I did a scene with Brad in the back of a taxi and it was only a few days after he had married Jennifer. I chatted to him for hours giving him advice about the three stages of marriage.

“Stage one is perfection - blind love. Stage two is the difficult stage because you start to despise everything about her. If you can deal with the baggage you can possibly get to stage three - a harmonious marriage.

“After six weeks Brad came up to me and said, ‘I’m definitely in stage two Omid!’”

The news controversy over New York Governor Eliot Spitzer's involvement with prostitute Ashley Dupre does bring more media attention on this community problem. While his involvement involved a supposed upscale escort service, according to the New York Times, many of the victims of prostitution are poor and immigrant women.

In an effort to reduce prostitution, the District Attorney's Office of Brooklyn attempts to help women who are struggling in the profession and who wish to leave. They do not merely punish those who are prostituting themselves but rather offer them the option of working with social workers to better their options.

E.P.I.C. (Ending Prostitution In our Community) and S.T.A.R. (Saving Teens at Risk) are two programs offered by the Kings County District Attorney's Office. They are offered to women who are prostituting themselves.

These program, one for women under 21 and one for over, help to give females different options other than prostitution. While, interning in the Sex Crimes Department, I was able to see first hand how the services were offered and the benefits and pitfalls.

Many of the women involved in the programs have had past history of sexual abuse. According to the Kings County DA statistics, approximately "80-90 percent of the women have been sexually abused." The program often offers counseling to the women as well as information on alternative lifestyle choices.

S.T.A.R., which is aimed at teens was started in 2004 by District Attorney Charles Hynes. The program encourages returning to school, as well as helping women to apprehend their pimps (sometimes being their own family members). With the help of the DA's office these women can be relocated should need be. The program often will work with the Administration of Children Services, New York Public Housing, translators, and teachers to help the young women obtain regular contact with a social worker even when they are discharged from the program
Some ways that the programs helped women who were prostituting themselves was by offering alternative sentencing should a prostitute be arrested. Just like several drug rehabilitation programs, E.P.I.C. and S.T.A.R. gave the women the option of attending a series of meetings, having to contact select social workers as well as obtaining information on housing, jobs and safer sex.

One of the hardest aspects seemed to be enticing women to become part of the program. The programs are both voluntary to women seeking support and also are offered to women who were arrested for prostitution charges. Unfortunately, a great deal of those prostituting themselves were immigrant women who went into the business due to the difficulty in obtaining work in other fields. This doesn't go to say that it is impossible to find other work, even if you lack a formal education, but due to the structuring of many of the women's environments prostitution was an easier option. The programs worked hard with translators and cultural community centers to reach women who may normally not be able to benefit from offered services.

It was also a positive note to see that the program would often try to work with the prostitutes to ensure that they can complete the program and rehabilitation. The social workers were considerate of relapses and personal situations but they also were strict with rules and regulations. By having sympathy to the women while also remaining firm I think the program also deterred abuse of the free services.

What I found to be the most beneficial of the program was that they did not turn away women who were not interested in full rehabilitation. The women were permitted to get access to free birth control, physicals and were encouraged that should they prostitute themselves that they remain physically safe as well as access to safety and phone hotlines. Both programs are free and confidential. Even though some of the women did not give up their lifestyle choices the program seemed to encourage those who were aware of it to pass the information on to other women or to encourage healthier choices for their children.

Washington? New York? Chicago?

Unless you've been living under your bed for the week, you've heard Spitzer and Dupre bandied around more than Southwest and unsafe planes. We agree the unsafe plane issue is damn important, but the call girl scandal and the tourism it could spark is delicious.

Earlier today we wrote about taking your own sex tour - which is not sex tourism. Skip the museums, hit the Sexy Tourismhotels where you too can live out your fantasies. And GoGirlfriend isn't alone. The blogosphere is lighting up with ways to get your "sexy" travel mojo on.

ASHLEY DUPRE

Escort Ashley Dupre -- whose name we now know thanks to The New York Times -- will always be "Kristen" to most of us who've followed the Eliot Spitzer scandal. That's how Ms. Dupre was identified in the affidavit that alleged that Mr. Spitzer had had an encounter with a high-end prostitute (yes, "Kristen") in the U.S. capital this past February. But her family might still think of the 22-year-old as Ashley Youmans, her birth name.

In her recent interview, Ms. Dupre told the Times that she didn't want people to think of her "as a monster." I suppose there are no guarantees of that, but it seems more likely the public will focus its ire on the cheating husband and hypocritical former prosecutor in the story. And at least Ms. Dupre can console herself with the knowledge that all this attention sure isn't going to hurt her burgeoning singing career. Ashley Alexandra Dupre songs have suddenly become hot commodities on the online music store amiestreet.com.

If you must investigate for yourself, search for Move ya Body and What We Want. Of the former single, the Post's Mark Medley says, "The pure mediocrity of this synthbacked 3 minute 27 second song ensures it will be played on commercial radio."
