Ashley Alexandra Dupre is back! And thankful, thank you
In case you've been worried, you should know that Ashley Alexandra Dupre, a.k.a. Kristen, of the Spitzer scandal is back. She's fine. Apparently happy. And her mood is "thankful."
That according to her r
estored MySpace page.
Alexandra's photo here became very famous overnight because she has this huge pair of sunglasses. In fact, she was so famous so suddenly, we feel like we've known her a long time.
You probably remember her as the high-priced prostitute who traveled all the way from New York City to Washington, D.C., to a high-priced hotel for a high-priced night with a high-ranking government official, who turned out to be New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer, who happened to have been an outspoken prosecutor who prosecuted illegal things like, well, prostitution.
So, with his wife by his side, Spitzer was forced to resign from the governor's office. (Which cost Hillary Clinton yet another superdelegate, btw.)
The jut-jawed Spitzer was replaced by his lieutenant governor, David Paterson, who is well liked in New York's capital, is legally blind and, although no one remembers asking, took the opportunity of his first weekend in office to reveal along with his wife Michelle that they both had had extramarital affairs during their marriage. Is there something in the Albany water?
But that's another story.
Anyway, Alexandra kind of dropped out of sight. But she's back now and busy updating her page. She had so many Friend requests that she got behind and MySpace deleted a whole bunch because they timed out.
So if yours was among them, she asks you to file another one please.
She also wants to thank everyone for their support and publishes some inspirational letters she received. Here's one: "hey i just wanted to say to you, that you truely are the most beautiful women i have ever seen. i am just a nobody in this world and knowing that you might just read this has really made my day."
If you want, you can go to her music page and join the 5-million-plus others who have sampled some. She says she is all about music.
You can also go to her regular page and read some of the comments or leave one of your own. Or not.
We now resume our normal programming.

P.S. Here's a bonus for people who read the photo credits. The New York Daily News took a bunch of photos of Alexandra on the beach recently and the big news is she has a tattoo down there.
dang.... that's her mom?

Memo to: Big Media
From: A reader/viewer
Once again, another story about the Spitzer scandal has appeared without a single reference to Spitzer's party affiliation.
While it's nice to know that Spitzer is "jut-jawed" and that he once prosecuted prostitution, stories about Republican wrong-doing always emphasize that they are Republicans. It's hard to imagine a story about Larry Craig, for instance, without such a reference.
Yet, the coverage about Spitzer rarely references his political affiliation, which BTW is Democrat.

(So once again your eagerness to jump on something about 'Big Media' caused you to overlook a fact. Could Spitzer be anything but a Democrat and still be a superdelegate for Hillary Clinton as described?)

Has the IRS audited Ms. Dupre who charged $4300.00 for a hour of service. Why is she worthy of any news stories? Eliot has resigned, her cover blown, now get on with your life. When I was growing up, Actors worked other jobs while trying to make it big, but waiting tables does not pay $4300.00 per hour. I bet her music is all moans with a beat.

Why isn't this whore in jail? Are we supposed to believe she paid taxes?

Actually, Wm Tate, it does mention his party affiliation, albeit indirectly. It mentions that his resignation cost Sen Clinton one of her Superdelegates.
