Eliot Spitzer's prostitute Ashley Alexandra Dupre is cashing in on the sex scandal.
The budding singer, 22, may have already banked an estimated $200,000 from online music downloads, the New York Post reports.
Dupre - who charged the disgraced New York Governor more than $4,000-a-month for her services - made two of her tunes, "What We Want" and "Move Ya Body," available for purchase as 99-cent downloads on music site Amie Street shortly after the scandal broke. (Musicians can earn a 70 percent cut on download fees.)
"What We Want," a pulsating dance tune, was also added to New York's Z100 playlist on Thursday (she first streamed it on her MySpace page, which has gone on to receive more than 7 million hits).
But after listener response was low, it was yanked out of rotation, though it was still heard on the station as of late Friday.
Should her music career not take off, Dupre will have no problem finding gigs to fall back on, says Hustler Publisher Larry Flynt. (Hustler offered her $1 million to pose Friday.)
"She is no doubt going to do a book. There will probably be a movie," he tells the Associated Press. "I think she is going to have so many offers coming in that it will probably be wishful thinking just to get in the door."

Am I the only one who doesn’t find her all that attractive (from the neck up)? lol
$1 million to pose Friday?
What’s so important about Friday?

Using her brain will earn her far more money than renting out body cavities.
Maybe she’s posing at TGI Friday’s?
I think she’s cute. Who doesn’t think a brown-eyed jersey girl isn’t cute?
Is she worth $5,000 to sleep with, probably not.
You owe me a keyboard. (I’ll never get the Coke out of this one.)

She might be a whore, but she’s no dummy.
You are not alone. I’m sure all these glamor shots portray her at her absolute best, and she’s still no great beauty to me.

Well, she was shrewd enough to get a stupid politician to fork over $5,500 per “transaction.” That said, making money on her brief fame is about as close to “using her brain” as this gal is going to get.
Remember Rule One:
Sex Sells.
No, it’s not just you. I don’t find her particularly attractive.
She’s probably considered extremely hot by hooker standards, though - if only because she’s not sporting track marks and/or missing teeth.
The NJ accent is enough to make me pay her $5,000 to shut up, though. ;)
