Joe Francis has released a bit of the Girls Gone Wild footage that Ashley Alexandra Dupré filmed for them and is suing them over.
No, not the naked bits — the part where she gave her consent to be filmed:
In the new release, Dupre appears covered by a terrycloth towel and gives her name as Amber Arpaio. An unseen questioner asks if she is 18.
“Yes I am,” Dupre answers in a strong Southern accent.
“Do you know what ’Girls Gone Wild’ is?” the questioner asks.
“Yes I do,” she replies with a laugh.
“Can I use this on ’Girls Gone Wild’?” she is asked.
“Of course you can,” Dupre answers.
The video also displays a New Jersey driver’s license with the Amber Arpaio name and a birth date that would have made her appear to be in her 20s.
This pretty much nullifies her whole argument that they filmed her even though they knew she was underage. The defense rests in time for happy hour.
Scientology was pretty pissed off about all those leaked Tom Cruise videos, followed by the awesome Anonymous onslaught.
So now they’ve gone and bought themselves a fancy channel on YouTube.
However, as Gawker dissects, what they’re doing is not really in the spirit of YouTube. Or, well, America.
First of all, we can’t embed the videos on Deceiver.com because the church has paid to disallow other sites to disseminate the propaganda. So we can’t discuss it.
Secondly, they’ve disabled commenting. So we can’t discuss it.
Let’s piss them off and discuss it anyway. Do y’all think this is a move in the “If you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em” direction, or just another way to target impressionable youths who will see ads for the church cult while they’re browsing Playboy videos on YouTube?
Apparently I am the only person in North America who doesn’t care what Miley Cyrus did or did not wear in some dumb magazine, or anything she does anywhere else for that matter. But Disney is outraged, Bill O’Reilly is outraged, everybody’s outraged about the supposed sexualization of a 15-year-old girl. Even Deceiver is a little bit outraged! Disney has sent lil’ Miley into hiding to try to protect their franchise from the media storm.
But that’s just in the West. In China, apparently Disney is a lot more nonchalant about kids showing too much skin. Daniel Brooks, writing in Slate, brings news of a creepy Chinese ad campaign for Disney underwear, featuring an even younger girl in bra and panties. When he asked Disney about it, in light of their reaction to this Miley Cyrus debacle, a Disney spokesman said the Chinese ad (which is months old) was an oversight on their part and would be discontinued immediately. That’s great, but if Disney is so concerned with their kid-friendly image, why are they letting this stuff happen in the first place?
