Meet Ashley Dupre's Supposed Pimp

Remember Jason Itzler, the barely-repentant former pimp who explained to a stunned Anderson Cooper why some people pay $5,000 an hour for a hooker? Now he's claiming that, as he was taping the Anderson session, he realized that Eliot Spitzer's hooker Ashley Dupre used to work for him! He didn't say anything to Cooper at the time because he wasn't sure, and in fact he told the anchor of Dupre, "she is not a serious fashion model ... I don't know if her boobs are real or not." But when he got home and looked up Dupre's MySpace profile, Itzler realized he was right, and quickly finagled himself an appearance the next day on top-rated CNN show Larry King Live, where all of a sudden he could not say enough nice things about Dupre. Even credulous King looked like he didn't believe the guy, but if it turns out Itzler is lying and Dupre denies everything, he'll end up with a third day of free publicity for his matchmaking service, DNA Diamonds. Video after the jump.

Are the "serious" ones those with the real boobs or the fakes?

So, the Jooz not only run Hollywood and Wall Street, they run the brothels which the kings of these industries patronize? Talk about captive audiences.

This guy looks like Joe Francis's ugly little cousin, who watched Dr. Detroit one too many times.

His publicist deserves some serious kudos. Anyone who can see the downfall of Spitzer as publicity oppurtunity for their former pimp client, is a serious credit to their industry.

In the case of the paternity of Jason Itzler...David Gest, you are the father!

A perfectly reasonable, level-headed guy! It must be shocking when he has to choke a bitch.

Is this the same douche who was on Howard Stern - who said he didn't know the Ms. Dupre? What an assclown.

I think he is desperately trying to convey the concept of poetic justice towards the end. I like the way he makes reference to his time on Rikers, and Larry lets loose with a grunt!
