She’s Doing it Wrong! #
For Ad Age, Nat Ives unironically says that Ashley Durpé (the girl attached to the Eliot Spitzer scandal) has failed to properly leverage her new found fame. It’s a little too obtuse not to share.
Scandalites before her have certainly leveraged their notoriety into Jenny Craig endorsement deals; their own reality series; handbag lines; jeans commercials; guest turns on shows from “The View” to “Judge Judy”; and, in the case of Paris Hilton, renown for nothing other than being famous.
But extending Ms. Dupré’s moment into a real run in the spotlight is getting tougher with every passing day. Even the $1 million payout offered by Hustler could evaporate if “Girls Gone Wild” and others keep turning up pre-existing nude images of Ms. Dupré.
