Joe Francis: Sentenced to JAIL For For Assault on Woman

Joe Francis has just been sentenced to jail for assault on a woman. According to TMZ, Francis will serve at least 270 days behind bars. The Girls Gone Wild honcho was also sentenced to 36 months probation and has been ordered to complete a Level 3 Anger Management course. He must also attend weekly psychological counseling for a year. The judge expressed real concern with Joe’s explosive temper, which was on full display in the assault and false imprisonment that got him convicted. He was cuffed and booked. Bail will be set at $250,000. This saga all started when three women accused Joe of taking them to his Hollywood home after a night out in 2011 and refusing to let them leave. He was also accused of attacking one of them, choke-slamming her head into the floor. That led to criminal charges, and a jury found him guilty. Francis was convicted on five charges, including assault, three counts of false imprisonment, and one count of dissuading a witness from reporting. Joe said the jury is f–king retarded . Quote-unquote. As recently as this summer, he filed documents asking for a new trial based on allegations of insufficient evidence. Clearly the judge was not swayed. Enjoy, Joe.

Joe Francis Slapped With $20 MILLION Judgment For Slandering Steve Wynn

Joe Francis was ordered to pay a staggering $20 million after a jury sided with casino mogul Steve Wynn in his slander claims against the Girls Gone Wild kingpin. Wynn filed suit in 2010 after Francis claimed the Las Vegas giant had threatened to have him killed, taken out to the desert and buried over a gambling debt. Wynn, obviously, denied the claims and sued for everything in the book. During the four-day trial, the casino owner called the accusation a “terrible lie.” Joe is “unrepentant, vicious, out of control,” said Wynn on the stand last week. Among those called to testify was Grammy-winning record producer Quincy Jones, Francis’ neighbor, a friend of Wynn’s and an alleged witness to the claim. Francis had insisted it was Jones who told him Wynn wanted him knocked off, but in court, the music producer said such conversations never took place. Neither Francis nor Wynn were present when the verdict was read.

Are Madonna And Britney Spears Collaborating On MDNA?

Amid rumors that Spears will appear on Madge’s ‘Girls Gone Wild,’ MTV News looks back at their history together. By Jocelyn Vena Madonna and Britney Spears Photo: Jason Merritt/ FilmMagic Could it be that Madonna has enlisted her pal Britney Spears for MDNA ? Well, according to a leaked album jacket, it seems that Spears is making an appearance on the album’s lead track, “Girls Gone Wild.” This would mark the second collaboration on the album. Madonna nabbed Nicki Minaj and M.I.A. for the album’s first single, “Give Me All Your Luvin’.” While the leaked jacket, which appeared on Britney fansite Breatheheavy.com can’t be confirmed as authentic, a rep for Madge had no comment about the rumor, neither confirming nor denying it. Meanwhile, a rep for Spears never returned MTV News’ request for comment. This is hardly the first time that the two ladies have worked together. In fact, they have quite a history with each other. The duo kicked off their nearly decade-long friendship at the 2003 VMAs when, in case you haven’t heard, they shared an onstage kiss while performing together. It was the kiss seen and heard around the world, and nearly ten years later still is often talked about as one of the most memorable moments in the show’s storied history. After they shared that smooch, Spears was inspired to get the Queen of Pop on her lead In the Zone single, “Me Against The Music.” “I was in the middle of rehearsals for the VMAs and I played her the song, and she was like, ‘That’s your first single, right?’ ” Britney recalled in a vintage interview with MTV. “I was like, ‘Yeah, hopefully.’ She was like, ‘I really like it.’ I was like, ‘Really?’ I was like, ‘Well, you wanna do it with me?’ She said, ‘Yeah.’ ” They later appeared together in the warehouse-set video with one another, playing a pop star cat-and-mouse game that featured a near kiss. Five years later, as Spears was prepping her return to the pop spotlight, she appeared onstage with Madonna during a Sticky & Sweet Tour at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles. The singer hit the stage with the pop icon to perform “Human Nature” by her side. That same year, Madonna appeared in Spears’ documentary, “For the Record,” where she spoke about the younger singer. “I admire her as an artist,” the Material Girl said, adding that she sees a lot of herself in Spears. In 2011, as Spears was prepping the release of her album Femme Fatale, in an interview with Out magazine , she noted that she truly admires her friend. “Madonna. No question. She is an amazing entertainer,” she said when asked whose career she most would want to emulate. As Madonna preps the release of MDNA in March, Spears is also the topic of conversation in a recent interview with her. When asked by ABC News what it was like to smooch the pop princess, she commented, “Nice moment, good kisser. Cool,” she said, clarifying that she wouldn’t do it again. “No, I already did it. I don’t like to repeat myself.” Well, perhaps a kiss would be “reductive” (her word, not ours), but it seems given the love that Madge and Spears fans have for the two pop stars, they wouldn’t mind them cooking up some musical magic. The track, “Girls Gone Wild,” was teased in a megamix that dropped last week and it certainly feels like it would lend itself to both Madonna and Brit’s musical sensibilities: It’s fist-pumpingly dance-y, sexy and all about going out and having a good time with Madge proclaiming, “Girls, they just want to have some fun/Get fired up like a smoking gun/On the floor till the daylight comes/Girls, they just want to have some fun.” What would you think of a new Britney Spears/ Madonna collabo?

Joe Francis Threatens Lawsuit Against Madonna Over "Girls Gone Wild" Song

Sultan of sleaze Joe Francis is threatening to sue Madonna if she performs her new song called “Girls Gone Wild” at the Super Bowl tomorrow. Yes, really. Francis, creator of the infamous Girls Gone Wild franchise, in which he films drunk girls exposing themselves on spring break, is apparently dead serious. He has issued a cease and desist letter claiming he will take legal action against Madonna if she sings that particular song at this weekend’s festivities. The letter (sent to Madonna, NBC Universal and NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell) from Francis’ Nevada lawyer David Houston, states that: “[Francis] became aware of Madonna’s new track based on the presales of her new album MDNA , as the #1 song on the album is ‘Girls Gone Wild.'” “Mr. Francis and Girls Gone Wild have worked tirelessly for an excess of two decades to build his brand and to protect his trademark Girls Gone Wild.” “Girls Gone Wild’s trade identity and trademark are both extremely valuable assets which my client must protect vigorously,” the letter continues. The letter claims Madonna has “violated Federal and State trademark laws by making unauthorized use of Mr. Francis’ trademark Girls Gone Wild.” For what it’s worth, it looks like she wasn’t going to sing it anyway. Madonna’s set list reportedly includes ” Give Me All Your Luvin’ ,” “Ray of Light” and “Vogue,” along with “Music” and “Holiday.” No GGW action. Houston tells E! News regarding the set list, “That would be a wise choice on her part.” Good luck getting it off the album and iTunes, though.

Piranha 3D star Jerry O’C onnell — who will now forever been known as the dude who lost his penis in Piranha 3D — has been fond of telling everyone that his Wild Wild Girls promoter in the film is based on Girls Gone Wild ‘s Joe Francis. Or, as he told The Daily Beast: “For legal reasons I’m supposed to say, ‘I play someone loosely based on Joe Francis.'” Not loosely enough, apparently. Joe Francis will not have his good name sullied by Piranha 3D — and he’s threatening a lawsuit.
