Eliot spitzer Prostitute Ashley Alexandra DupreShe left a broken home on the Jersey Shore at 17 and came to New York City to work the nightclubs as a rhythm and blues singer. Now, at 22, she is the unwitting, and as yet unseen, star of the seamy drama that is the downfall of Gov. Eliot Spitzer of New York.Kristen, the prostitute described in a federal affidavit as having had a rendezvous with Mr. Spitzer on Feb. 13 at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington, has spent the last few days in her ninth-floor apartment in the Flatiron district of Manhattan. On Monday, she made a brief appearance in federal court, where a lawyer was appointed to represent her. She is expected to be a witness in the case against four people charged with operating a prostitution ring called the Emperor's Club V.I.P.Born Ashley Youmans but now known as Ashley Alexandra Dupré, she spoke softly and with good humor as she added with significant understatement This has been a very difficult time. It is complicated.Ms. Dupré said by telephone Tuesday night that she was worried about how she would pay her rent since the man she was living with walked out on me after she discovered he had fathered two children. She said she was considering working at a friend's restaurant or, once her apartment lease expires, moving back with her family in New Jersey to relax. She did not say when she had started working for the Emperor's Club, or how often she had liaisons arranged through the ring. Asked when she met Governor Spitzer and how many times they had seen each other, Ms. Dupré said she had no comment. Music is her first love, and on the MySpace page, Ms. Dupré mentions Patsy Cline, Frank Sinatra, Christina Aguilera and Lauryn Hill among a long list of influences, including her brother, Kyle. (She also lists Whitney Houston, Madonna, Mary J. Blige and Amy Winehouse as her top MySpace friends.) In the interview, she said she saw the Rolling Stones perform at Radio City Music Hall on their last tour after a friend gave her two tickets. They were amazing, she said.Learned what it was like to have everything and lose it, again and again, she writes. Learned what it was like to wake up one day and have the people you care about most gone.But I made it, she continues. I'm still here and I love who I am. If I never went through the hard times, I would not be able to appreciate the good ones. Cliché, yes, but I know it's true.Ms. Dupré's mother, Carolyn Capalbo, 46, said that after her daughter finished sophomore year in high school, Ms. Dupré moved to North Carolina. She was a young kid with typical teenage rebellion issues, but we are extremely close now, Ms. Capalbo said in a telephone interview Wednesday.In 2006, Ms. Dupré changed her legal name, according to records in Monmouth County Superior Court, from Ashley R. Youmans to Ashley Rae Maika DiPietro, taking her stepfather's surname since she regarded him as the only father I have known. But in the interview, she referred to herself as Ashley Alexandra Dupré, which is how she is known on MySpace.In the affidavit, the woman the Emperor's Club called Kristen is described as an American, petite, very pretty brunette, 5 feet 5 inches, and 105 pounds. She apparently was booked at about $1,000 an hour, placing her in the middle of the seven-diamond scale by which the prostitutes were paid up to $4,300 an hour.She is a very bright girl who can handle someone like the governor, Ms. Capalbo said. But she also is a 22-year-old, not a 32-year-old or a 42-year-old, and she obviously got involved in something much larger than her.

Feds Have Spitzer Cornered
The noose appears to be tightening around sex-crazed ex-Gov. Eliot Spitzer. The federal case against him is so strong that prosecutors had no interest in striking cooperation agreements with the ringleader of Spitzer's hooker-supplier, Emperors Club VIP, and his second in command, sources told The Post's Murray Weiss.......>>
