A GIRL GONE WILD LOSES $5 MILLION VERDICT TO JOE FRANCIS.

ST. LOUIS, July 29 /PRNewswire/ -- A St. Louis jury found in favor of Girls Gone Wild this week in a $5 million dollar lawsuit brought by a woman who claimed that Girls Gone Wild had "damaged her reputation" by distributing a video of her dancing provocatively in a St. Louis bar. Tamara Favazza claimed she had not given her consent to appear on camera, but the St. Louis Circuit Court jury of 12 people found in favor of Girls Gone Wild.


The woman's lawyers had demanded at least $5 million in damages, even asking for the $1.5 million they estimated the company has made on the video in which Tamara Favazza appeared.


David A. Dalton II, lawyer for Girls Gone Wild, said, "The jury listened to the evidence and made the right decision. They found that Tamara Favazza had given her consent by entering a bar she knew was hosting a Girls Gone Wild event, and then dancing provocatively for the Girls Gone Wild cameras."


Girls Gone Wild CEO, Joe Francis, said, "This is just one more example of someone trying to make a quick buck off Girls Gone Wild by making false accusations against our company. At the same time, this is also another great example of someone who got their ass kicked in a court room by a smart judge and a smart jury who saw the truth. Girls Gone Wild will always vigorously defend ourselves against anyone who makes such outrageous and defamatory allegations. Girls Gone Wild has NEVER lost a jury trial."


Francis also says, "Girls Gone Wild is a fun lifestyle brand. Each year tens of thousands of girls contact our website, our monthly magazine and our live event camera crews for the chance to be part of Girls Gone Wild, as viewers witness each week on our HDNet reality series, "Girls Gone Wild Presents: Search for the Hottest Girl in America." The series' grand finale, featuring the crowning of Girls Gone Wild's 2010 Hottest Girl in America, airs this Thursday, July 29 at 10:00 p.m. PT/1:00 a.m. ET (Friday, July 30).
