Ashley Dupre Addresses Fans, Critics

Attention supporters of high-priced call girls: Ashley Dupre has a message for you.

The woman who made massive sums of money by sleeping with former New York Governor Elliot Spitzer has posted a blog on her MySpace page, thanking fans for their positive words:

"Thank you all so much for taking the time to send me a bit of strength and inspiration via e-mail or comment," Dupré wrote "Your words have touched me, and I thank you for that..."

On a related note, remember when Dupre touched Spitzer in exchange for cash?

Ashley Dupre wants to thank all her fans. The Hollywood Gossip wants to thank Ashley Dupre for placing herself back in the news.

Of course, not all political and celebrity gossip followers are fans of Ashley Alexandra Dupre; the prostitute had words for these critics, as well:

"And to all the not so kind words ... I love you too, because it makes me push myself and want it even more. Hard times don't last ... only strong people."

Dupre, naturally, knows all about hard times. Or at least hard governors.
