How Much Did YOU Make In the Past 2 Days?

Well, that high priced call girl had a couple of her songs posted on a music download site, and since Wednesday, she has gotten over 200,000 downloads at a full cost 0f .98 cents each, of which, her share is 70 %.

70 % X .98 = .686 then times the minimum of 200,000 = $ 137,200.00

That would have been 27.44 hours flat on her back at her previous job which cost $ 5,000.00 per hour.

Can Spitzer Call Girl Cash In?
By JAKE COYLE AP Entertainment Writer

NEW YORK (AP) - The collateral consequence of scandal often is newfound celebrity, and for the 22-year-old call girl involved in the Eliot Spitzer scandal, prospects are rising.

The prostitute identified in court papers as Kristen is an aspiring musician named Ashley Alexandra Dupre. Her identity was only first reported Wednesday, but already her fame is skyrocketing.

Curious about the woman so integral in the New York governor's downfall, many have flocked to MySpace to view her photos, music and biographical information. That material was removed Thursday after over more than 5 million visited her page.

Dupre's page had portrayed her as a New Jersey native who left a broken home to pursue a music career in New York. Court papers allege that Spitzer paid thousands of dollars for her services with the Emperor's Club VIP.

"I have been alone," she wrote. "I have abused drugs. I have been broke and homeless. But, I survived, on my own. I am here, in NY because of my music."

Dupre had also posted two songs at the music sharing site Aime Street, which allows musicians to earn a 70 percent cut of download fees, which are determined by their popularity. The songs, "What You Want" and "Move Ya Body" are dance-pop tunes a la Britney Spears.

On "What We Want," she sings: "I know what you need/ Can you handle me?"

As of Thursday evening, the songs had been listened to by some 200,000. Downloads were selling for 98 cents each, though "What We Want" had previously been selling for less than 20 cents. That song was also making it onto the nation's radio airwaves.

My very first ambition was to be a pimp, but I love the product too much

Now I wish I had done it----5k per hour is almost as good as a plumber.

She has made an internet presence for herself, but her days are numbered soon.
