Ashley Dupre didn't choose to be famous for being a prostitute. She was a worker in the sex industry, toiling in anonymity like most sex workers until she got outed. Her madam committed suicide. She's been through a lot of humiliation and loss. I feel for her. Now she is reinventing herself, making the best of a bad situation, making a new life for herself. I hope she can. I appreciate your feelings about your previous video. You're a kind, empathetic person. I don't feel your video was unkind.
I think its good you made this. I feel sorry for her, the sex industry generally exploits the least well off, but they still get ridiculed in the media like its a free choice. I think you covered your views on all this in your video about nelly and his porn video, if I remember right. Anyways, good on you.
This is coming very late, but I have to say, I barely remembered the whole Ashley Dupre/Spitzer thing and had no idea she could even sing, but kinda like one of the previous posters said - what she did and the whole situation surrounding her WAS unpleasant, but for someone like me who's clueless about that sort of stuff, all this really did was give me a really beautiful remix to listen to. But total props to you for being so kind and respectful to Ms. Dupre, too, dude.
Jay - honestly - take her "situation" out of the equation and all you did was take a yet another good-looking girl with a mediocre voice and song and you made it better. The Snoop song is a perfect complement to her song. Its great that you have a conscience and feel the need to right a "wrong", but I honestly dont think you were fanning the flames - theres not much there...
Glad you made the video. I'm not usually the "hater" type, but her becoming famous happened through her screw up and it's her own fault. Yes, it's adding fuel to a fire she and Spitzer built together, but it does deserve attention as a demoralizing situation that happens here in the US over and over without resolution. It's not evolution that's slow, it's the people who are.
who the fuck thumbsdownd everyone.....dick ne ways she really isnt worth the analysis just post it for fun obvously people laughed and it got to someone who made a stink about it so dont waiste yer time"FUCK EM IF THEY CANT TAKE A JOKE!!!" lol
Thanks.. just to be clear I actually hadn't gotten any negative feedback or flack about it before I posted this, just had feelings about it in my own gut.
Of course, I like your Chocolate Rain mash better, but the AAD mash-up was pretty tight (no pun intended). Don't feel guilty. You deserve viral (that sounded nasty ;-)).
Oh so it let's me post only if I don't post links. So here's the previous message: It even reached The Wall Street Journal: blogs.wsj. COM /buzzwatch/2008/03/13/web-video-mashup-culture-takes-on-ashley-dupre-and-her-music/ just to show how fucked up US got... :)) . Btw, I like your videos, but they picked one of the worst.

lol, I don't think it was all that bad. It's really only skimming the surface of the jokes that will probably keep coming for months.
