attachments/jen/2008_03_kristen10.jpgInfamous prostitute of the hour Ashley Alexandra Dupre, whose other life as high class hooker "Kristen," forced Governor Eliot Spitzer to resign, is cashing in on her . . . uh, notoriety. From revenue from downloaded music tracks to book, magazine, clothing, and film deals, Dupre could stand to make millions of dollars in coming months. Silicon Alley Insider listed some potential deals that could pay off for the pro from New Jersey.

Those details were culled from an article in the New York Post, which also features video of Dupre shooting a music video for one of her songs. The Post estimates that the looker hooker could earn anywhere from $2.5 million to $5 million for all the combined deals she's been offered--and classily notes that would equal her performing 581 to 1,162 sex acts with the Governor.

More Dupre details: Some friends tell the Daily News she has abused cocaine ("I'd watch her go through multiple bags [of cocaine] in a single evening") and the management of her West 25th Street building issued a statement to the media saying she's not there, so stop upsetting tenants with the cameras and TV crews. And she has been given immunity by prosecutors.

Dupre's biological father Williams Youmans, who lives in North Carolina, told the Post she called him last week, crying and saying she was in trouble, "She just made the wrong decisions. Everyone makes mistakes, and this was a very large mistake. I love her tremendously and support her, but I am just in so much shock right now."
