And just to think it’s that easy to become famous. Sleep with an ugly politician, especially a New York one, and bam Russell Simmons wants to hop on your a$$ quicker than Paris Hilton dropping her pants. Ashley Dupre, you are ONE lucky slut girl.
Russell Simmons has taken Ashley Dupre under his wing and hes mentoring her career. (Friends suspect theres more than mentoring going on, but thats a matter of opinion.) For whatever reason, Simmons, after meeting Ashley in a yoga class, has decided to help her develop a singing career. So he says. Not only that, but hes trying to sell an Ashley Dupre reality show to either E! or MTV where he has connections. (source)
By mentoring, they mean she gets down on her knees and he promises her gold records. Although we’re sure the only thing she’s receiving is white stains.
