MIAMI — The call girl linked to former New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer is suing the founder of the “Girls Gone Wild” video series for more than $10 million.
Ashley Alexandra Dupre filed a lawsuit Monday in Miami federal court claiming she never gave “Girls Gone Wild” founder Joe Francis permission to use her name and likeness to advertise the videos.
Dupre contends she was 17 and not old enough to sign a contract when the videos were taken in 2003 in Miami Beach.
A spokesman for Francis didn’t immediately return a call for comment Monday.
The now 22-year-old Dupre was identified in March as a prostitute named “Kristen” who had been involved with Spitzer. He has since resigned.
