Ashe vs. Margolis in Download Fight
Sept. 8 -- It hasn’t escalated to the level of a Celebrity Deathmatch yet, but two of the Internet’s most downloaded women are sparring over who’s really the cyber-fairest of them all.
Danni Ashe, a nude model and founder of adult Web site “Danni’s Hard Drive,” was crowned by the Guinness Book of World Records as the “Most Downloaded Woman” in the world, dethroning Playboy actress, supermodel and now late-night show host Cindy Margolis.
“I knew all along I had more Internet fans than Cindy, but I was busy running my business and didn’t pay much attention to the hoopla,” gloated Ashe in a statement after the Guinness announcement.
But wait. Who really won — Danni, who’s willing to bear it all, or Cindy, who makes sure she keeps her skimpy bikini on?
A Two-Way Win
Guinness first bestowed the title on Margolis, who then touted it on her Web site. But then, the fickle record-keepers turned it over to Ashe after seeing research and data presented by Ashe — who obviously wasn’t too busy to notice — and Alexa Research of San Francisco, a company that tracks page views and Web site popularity ratings.
This turnabout, of course, started a cat fight between the two babelicious blondes.
“My initial reaction was skepticism that a respected, family publication like the Guinness Book of World Records would associate themselves with the Pornography [sic] industry,” said Margolis in an e-mail to ABCNEWS.com. “I now understand [Guinness’s] obligations, however it does not change my position that I am not, nor do I wish to begin comparing myself or competing with women or Web sites that charge fees to view nudity.
“With loyal Cyberbuddies from 8 to 80, I am and will continue to be a PG girl all the way!” she continued.
But now it appears there may be a happy ending for each. Guinness spokesman Neil Hayes says both of the buxom beauties won, but in different categories.
