In the last two days, Eliot Spitzer's escort may have made more than $1,000 an hour, and she didn't even have to take her clothes off.
  • Good for Ashley

    It's funny. This is an exploitative act also but it's one that ultimately gets Ashley where she wants to be and doesn't risk her health. She's no Mariah Carey or Alycia Keys but then neither are Britney Spears, Madonna or Rihanna. Given the very cheap quality of these tracks, Ashley actually appears to have some talent, vocal talent anyway. Song writing not so much.

    I don't know why some people seem bitter about this girl profiting in a big way from this scandal. She clearly needs the money since her other job is gone and she will have to pay taxes on at least some of the money she did not declare as income. Her educational background is slight so I say make the money while you can girl, but in a legal way this time.

    As for Spitzer's wife, she lost all grounds for outrage when she stood by him TWICE in a public setting. Once I can fathom. Repeatedly? No. She's now going the Hillary Clinton route of identifying with her man's behavior and legitimizing it. From what we've heard, she didn't think he should leave the governor's mansion either. Can we say "enabler?"
