NEW YORK–New details have emerged about the call girl at the centre of the prostitution scandal engulfing New York's governor, with a newspaper report identifying her as a 22-year-old aspiring musician from Manhattan.
The New York Times reported that the real name of the prostitute – identified as "Kristen" in court papers alleging that Gov. Eliot Spitzer paid more than $4,000 for her services – is Ashley Alexandra Dupre.
New York lawyer Don Buchwald confirms that he represents Ashley Alexandra Dupre, the same woman in the Times story.
"That's as far as I can go," he said.
A man who answered the phone at the home of the woman's mother in New Jersey and identified himself as Dupre's brother, Kyle, said he didn't know why Dupre would agree to be interviewed about the scandal.
"I've talked to my sister every five minutes since this happened, and I'm not going to comment on it," he said. "She's just trying to get through this."
