Ashley Dupre getting a TV show?
Call girl-to-the-Spitz Ashley Dupre is allegedly developing a cable reality show, which leads us to wonder if her most famous client will guest-star. (We think the answer is a resounding "no").
According to E! News, Dupre, 23, is working on an unscripted show in Los Angeles, and is considering moving there from New York.
"They're talking to MTV about Ashley being the next Tila Tequla," a source close to the project tells E! News. Reps for MTV and Dupre declined to comment.
On Monday, "Girls Gone Wild" founder Joe Francis said he would soon be releasing videos of former Gov. Eliot Spitzer's prostitute on spring break in 2003. Last week, Dupre dropped a $10 million lawsuit against Francis over video footage.
Mario works on reality show
R&B singer Mario is in talks with VH1 to create a reality-type program, the 21-year-old tells us.
Mario wouldn't give further details, but says he'd love to star in a show that follows his creation of an album or another musical venture. Mario's fourth album is set for release on Nov. 10 from J Records. He is currently in the studio recording.
"By the end of the year we'll have something," Mario says.
Though some celebs shy away from the cameras, Mario has made his life semi-public with a stint on "Dancing with the Stars" and an MTV documentary about his mother's heroin addiction.
"I got in a little trouble when I was younger, but music was a way out," Mario says about his childhood in Baltimore.
To inspire other kids to stand up to pressures, the "Let Me Love You" singer heads up the Mario Do Right Foundation for at-risk youth. He'll be in New York Friday screening the film and speaking at the Boys & Girls Club in Harlem. He will perform that night at BB King's.
