The Corey Story

Only in America can a prostitute involved in a major sex scandal with an important public figure become rich and famous because of it.  Ashley Youmans (or Alexandra Dupre -whatever she goes by today) stands to make millions off of her now very public romp with client #9.  Adult magazines, movies, record labels will all come calling because of her infamous name.  These businesses don’t necessarily care about ethics, they care about what sells.  Sex sells - especially when it involves a scandal.  The deeply disturbing thing to me is the fact that there are millions of hard working, noble Americans out there who do the right thing and are never rewarded with riches for it.  This girl couldn’t even graduate high school, yet she is now going to be wealthy beyond her wildest dreams because she sold her body to the right person.  Wealth does not provide happiness, but it is something that should be earned honestly (I know that provided a chuckle for some of you out there).  It is a shame that people can obtain it through such immoral means.  Of course, there is nothing saying she will accept the money, but the fact she has a chance to is what bothers me about the U.S. of A.
