Spitzer Resigns, Call Girl Becomes a Star

Posted on March 12, 2008

Elliot Spitzer resigned today as Governor of New York. What was surprising is that, according to the New York Attorney General's office, there is no deal in place. That means Spitzer could face criminal charges. Spitzer apologized again and said that he will resign as of Monday to allow an orderly transition of power to the new governor, Paterson.

This has all happened so fast. Now the media is focused on finding the hookers in the case. The New York Times has a profile the infamous "Kristen" who entertained Client No. 9 (Spitzer) at the Mayflower Hotel. Kristen's real name is Ashley Alexandra Dupre. She has her own MySpace page, a blog and a dream of being a singer. She's also had over 2 million hits on her site since this story broke. Can a centerfold spread and a tell all book be far behind? It's Divine Brown, all over again.
