Anne is a PROFESSIONAL PROSTITUTE?

The headline is a big claim, I know, but here me out. The following is an extract from a passage I've found online: Regarding Anne's relationship with Raffaello Follieri:

 ...it's helpful to look at the constellation of people they have "dated." How did Hathaway end up engaged to wealthy real estate developer Raffaello Follieri, for instance? Info on some of his connections here - from June 2008: 

 "More trouble for Raffaello Follieri, the fiancé of “Devil Wears Prada” star Anne Hathaway; Attorney General Andrew Cuomo is investigating the Follieri Foundation, a charity headed by the 29-year-old Italian businessman. The Post has it that Cuomo’s office has subpoenaed financial documents belonging to the Manhattan-based foundation, which is involved with vaccinating children in developing countries, among other things. 

"Follieri last made headlines when he was arrested for bouncing a $215,000 company check issued on behalf of his real estate company. Those charges were dropped when he paid up last month, and earlier this year he also settled a lawsuit brought by billionaire Ron Burkle, who accused Follieri of "systematically misappropriating" at least $1.3 million from a joint business venture to finance his lavish lifestyle. 

"Hathaway’s spokesman tells the Post that the actress no longer serves on the foundation’s board, though she had traveled to Central America with Follieri last year for a charity-funded vaccination program. Cuomo’s office declined to elaborate on the investigation, but apparently it has something to do with the foundation’s failure to file tax-disclosure forms required of nonprofit groups." 

So with this "fiancee" you have a bunch of things going on. First off, when someone in the industry like Anne is suddenly engaged to a guy like that, it is almost always due to an arranged escort/prostitution "date." People think it's just because famous and wealthy people meet at parties, but it's not. Think of Cindy Crawford and Richard Gere and how they said they met at a party. No, she was a paid escort for the evening. At the higher echelons, these women (supermodels especially) are EXPECTED to keep powerful men company - it's part of the deal.

Sometimes it works out nicely and the woman actually enjoys being with the guy. She ends up with a full-time "gig" as the real girlfriend or wife. That's how you often end up with actresses marrying their directors. Or it's more cold and calculated. He gets a bit of expensive, famous, beautiful arm candy - and she thinks she's going to get lots of work because she's married to the director. (Doesn't always work out that way, though. Many directors rarely use their actress wives in films.) 

Anyway, with Anne and Raffaello, you also have the constellation of Raffaello having done a business deal with infamous Ron Burkle, a billionaire friend of Bill Clinton, who is widely known to be a guy who likes procuring models and other "willing" women for Bill - as well as enjoying them himself. So these threads all interconnect. Also you have the connection through Raffaello to some "world charity/vaccination program" stuff, with Anne having sat on the board of the charity and travelled to third world countries doing "good works." These organizations are usually fronts for prostitution, sex trafficking rings, and drugs - but they love to have someone wholesome like Anne as the "face" of the organization. I'm not saying she KNEW about all that stuff, she may have genuinely believed things were kosher. 

Anne and Raffaello broke up, but apparently she had let him take naked photos and videos of her, and she was freaking out that these would be made public post-breakup: 

"Anne Hathaway is concerned that pictures she took without clothes on for her now jailed ex-boyfriend Raffaello Follieri, might make their way onto the Internet. Anne’s brother was seen going through Follieri’s storage space, but the FBI had already raided the space the day before. Items taken by the FBI included Anne’s diary, and those scandalous pictures. There’s also a rumor an intimate video may have been taken as well. We’ve see Anne without a top on in movies like Havoc, but we haven’t seen her doing the nasty on video yet. Since we don’t have the pics from the storage space yet, the pics below will give you a preview of what is to come." 

Now, that's how the mainstream press always spins this stuff. She agreed to do some soft porn photos and video for the guy, with the understanding that it would only be circulated amongst a "connected" group of his friends. But after she broke up with him, all bets were off, and she knew that he might get nasty and circulate the material wider. This press release makes it sound like these were just innocent little photos and vids taken between a consenting couple. That's not how it usually works. The actresses agree to do porn in exchange for all the perks of being with the rich guy - but with the understanding that they lose rights to that material if they break up with the guy. 

I think Anne got "lucky" or perhaps made some other concessions/deals, because the release of this material didn't completely spoil her industry image as the nice girl. But it looks like some of it has leaked to the Net and is viewable online. 

There is a higher tier in the porn world of homemade stuff made by gorgeous actresses and models, whose boyfriends just "happen" to be directors, photographers, celebs, or connected people and get exclusive access to the sex tapes or photos these women do. I'm sure Raffaello passed Anne's stuff off to his friends like Ron Burkle, who is into that world up to his eyeballs, maybe even good ole Bill Clinton. It doesn't mean that it was ever going to be in wider release at the lower levels of porn distribution - this is the more exclusive stuff, the exclusive circles.

The following information was provided by somebody who claims to be in the industry on a lower rung. Or at least they were. To my mind, they have no reason to make this stuff up.

Thoughts and replies welcome.
