Ashley Dupre's Diane Sawyer Interview (VIDEO)

via ABC:

The young woman at the center of the historic downfall of the governor of New York is finally speaking out.

Ashley Dupré, the 23-year-old former escort who was the target of intense media scrutiny in the days after Gov. Eliot Spitzer's resignation from public office, has stepped forward to give her first television interview. Dupré told ABC News' Diane Sawyer that she does not feel responsible for Spitzer's downfall.

"If it wasn't me, it would have been someone else," she said. "I was doing my job. I don't feel that I brought him down."

Spitzer came to Dupre; therefore Spitzer bears responsibility for his hypocritical actions, not Dupre.

Okay guys, tell the truth. If you had the money Spitzer has, she could get some of it right?? Tell the truth now, am watching.

Nada

[OutsiderSA]

I wonder if she gets a book deal too - seems in the USA, 15 minutes of fame is all it takes.

She looks like a dude from the front page picture. And fake bewbs. Aww if I wanted to get it on with a high end escort, I would totally pick someone else with more natural beauty...

[bikerdude]

Looks like a dude? You seem confused..­..

[Porsche]

Picture that face without long hair and fine skin.... but then you are a biker... you wouldnt know any better.

[Tilling]

May her 15 minutes of fame be fleeting. (Just doing her job. Like she is some hard worker. Such is the noble worker... Oh, puh-leese. Go work in a factory for a minute.)

[ExpatinEurope2009]

I admire her. Prostitutes is an honest profession. Unlike some shyster money movers.

[Knowbetter]

We aren't in a SERIOUS financial crisis or two wars because of hookers, either.

[avenue]

Not to be mean, but ummm - I thought she looked a lot better than this.

[trollsbwild]

Exaclty, She looks like she put on a few pounds.

Meanwhile, she was a trollip. Someone should mention to her that the world does not owe her a thing.

[Golfer59]

i think she's hot.

[jesther]

It is not her fault. She brought him up (and in) on many occasions. .
