Sideshow: Casey Anthony gets an offer from Hustler

July 30, 2011|By Tirdad Derakhshani, Inquirer Staff Writer

Casey Anthony, recently acquitted of killing her child, Caylee, already has become a pop-cult star.

Flynt agrees such a pictorial would appeal "to some sick individuals . . . but that's what life is all about." It is?

Anthony's rep - she has one now - denies she's in negotiations with Flynt.

The ongoing commodification of Anthony's Being moves apace. USA Today says she's asking TV networks $1 mil for an interview. And a rubber mask of Anthony sold for nearly $1 mil on eBay.
