The $1 million offer to the call girl linked to former New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer was rescinded because she’d already shot footage for “Girls Gone Wild.” Now it might be Joe Francis who will lose out. A lawyer for Ashley Alexandra Dupre, now 22, said that Dupre was 17 when the footage was filmed. After hearing from her attorney, the company said the video’s Internet release will be delayed.’Girls Gone Wild” founder Joe Francis originally wanted Dupre, offering $1 million for her to appear in a non-nude spread for his company’s new magazine and a chance to join the “Girls Gone Wild” tour bus.A “Girls Gone Wild” employees found archived footage of Dupre filmed in 2003, and Francis retracted the offer. In a statement, Francis said he had received an e-mail from Dupre’s lawyer Don Buchwald, saying Dupre may have been 17 in the videos shot in Miami and not 18 as Francis had first claimed. In an e-mail to one of Francis’ publicists, Buchwald said he was “informed by Ashley that the video was in fact taken when she was underage (that is 17).” Buchwald added in the e-mail that Francis was aware of Dupre’s age during the filming. Francis said he bought Dupre a Greyhound bus ticket back home to North Carolina in 2003. Dupre returned home after she spent a week on the “Girls Gone Wild” bus in Miami and filmed seven full-length tapes, which included nudity, after signing legal papers, the company said.”It was because she was underage that he sent her home on a Greyhound bus back to North Carolina. It would be outrageous at the very least to play the video of an underage female on the Internet,” Buchwald said.Francis said all nude images of Dupre were taken in public places and contain no sexual contact. He added that his company has a “corporate policy” not to use individuals under 18 in their videos. Given this policy, the company delayed the release of Dupre’s footage on the Internet. “The company was investigating the matter and will make our decision shortly,” Francis said. In the meantime, Dupre was still depicted on the “Girls Gone Wild” Web site, with a free sampling on the front page of her dancing in a bikini.
