And he’s starting with Miss Ashley Alexander Dupré a.k.a. former Gov. Eliot Spitzer’s call girl.
I know what you are thinking: Trump + Dupré = The Perfect Match.
Well, it’s not a done deal yet.
According to insiders, Donald Trump is courting the 22-year-old prostitute to star in his new MTV reality TV show (now that “The Celebrity Apprentice” is over he’s got to have his hand in something).
The yet-to-be titled series is being produced by Trump’s company and was picked up by MTV for eight 60-minute episodes. The show is reportedly based on a British series called “Ladette to Lady.” (Though some press reports have nicknamed Trump’s version, “Lady or a Tramp.” I like “Trump’s Tramps” myself.) According to producers, the show’s premise is simple: take a dozen or so hard-core party girls and send them off to a boarding school-type facility where they are transformed into elegant women.
Word has it Trump is eager to get Dupré on board. However, show insiders say the woman at the center of the Spitzer sex scandal has yet to respond to the offer.
And why should she? Look how far she’s gone being as un-lady-like as humanly possible. Believe me; she doesn’t need Trump messing with her image to milk her 15 minutes of fame.
Could the invitation just be a way for Trump to get in the same room as Dupré? Or could it be that the Trumpster feels as though he has some experience reforming “bad girls.” You’ll recall “The Donald” made headlines in 2006 when he famously sent Miss USA Tara Conner to rehab to clean up her act instead of stripping her of her title and crown.
Who knows?
Although I will say that I am still stunned to see Dupré’s name in the headlines. Honestly, what does it say about our world when a troubled girl who participates in lewd and lascivious behavior can make a fortune and parlay her notorious deeds into fame?
