Gloria Allred Is the Woman Behind the Other Women

By Jo Piazza Posted Mar 27th 2010 01:00PM

Gloria Allred hasn't always been associated with "the other woman." The University of Pennsylvania alum (Go Quakers!) made a name for herself with very high profile pro-lady discrimination cases. She fought against the Boy Scouts of America for excluding 11-year-old Katrina Yeaw. She fought for actress Hunter Tylo when Aaron Spelling fired her for getting pregnant. And she successfully sued the all-male Friars Club in Beverly Hills for excluding female members.

But nowadays, Allred is best known as the lady lawyer mistresses go to when they may or may not want to go public with their private indiscretions. In fact, Jesse James' as-yet-unnamed fourth mistress has already retained her services.

Her first foray into a nationally-publicized love triangle came in 2004 when Amber Frey, mistress of wife murderer Scott Peterson, enlisted Allred to protect her against an onslaught of media attention.

Allred must have really caught the bug with Amber, because these days she has become synonymous with protecting the interests of women who have slept with other women's husbands. In the early days of the Tiger Woods scandal, mistress number one, Rachel Uchitel, solicited Allred's services. Allred organized, and then abruptly canceled, a press conference for Uchitel, who has remained pretty much mum on the scandal ever since.

Former porn star Joslyn James also signed on as an Allred client, allowing the self-described "most famous woman attorney in the nation" the opportunity to blast Woods in the media, declaring he needs "lying rehab" and "betrayal rehab" in addition to his therapy for sex addiction.

"The woman gets results, and now those results come with cash. She -- allegedly -- got Rachel Uchitel a million dollars. Who knows how much she's negotiating for Josyln James? She's smart and willing to take these high-profile cases," says 'Cult of Celebrity' author Cooper Lawrence.

Now, one of the women associated this week's serial cheater, Jesse James, has secured Allred's services. Allred informed Radar Online that her client is a "beautiful model and businesswoman" who had a "three year intimate relationship with Jesse James." Allred also said that her client had not fully decided whether or not to come forward and disclose her relationship with actress Sandra Bullock's husband.

"He pursued her and had strong feeling for her. She is in the process of trying to decide if she will come forward. She has proof of their relationship, including hundreds of text messages, e-mails and photos. The relationship JUST RECENTLY ENDED after the scandal broke," Allred continued.

"Gloria Allred is the new Johnnie Cochran for hookers and porn stars who bed celebrities. These women go to her because she has a track record of making money for anyone involved in a scandal," explains trial attorney and divorce lawyer Stacy Schneider, author of 'He Had It Coming: How to Outsmart Your Husband and Win Your Divorce.' "Gloria gets these ladies great deals, whether it's paid media publicity, photo spreads or interviews or lucrative contracts to keep their mouths shut. The men get nervous when Gloria is hired because they know she is media savvy and will drag them through the mud if it means a pay day for her clients."

But the question remains -- why get a lawyer, particularly a celebrity lawyer, if you have no intention of engaging the media with your story? Our bet is that this woman comes forward by the end of the month. And with Allred spinning her statements, we're sure she'll be playing the victim and not the temptress.

"Gloria Allred is making a fortune off these cheating scandals. I am sure she is laughing all the way to the bank, even as her colleagues criticize her tawdry client list and her recent dry spell of handling any cases of serious legal merit," Schneider says.

It's "her job" to get these sorry excuse for women money. They don't deserve a dime since they were more than willing to bed a married man but everyone is looking for a handout. And this mysterious mistress says Jesse James had "serious feelings" for her. Yeah okay. If this is true then it looks like she wasn't very special since she wasn't the only one who he cheated with.

By dfballou

If I were Jesse, or any other male. I would tell those blood suckers to F-off. He owes then nothing.legally or ethically.After all those tramp ho's are the problem, and part of the cause...Also i would consider sueing them for alienation of affection, and also Bullock would have an excellent case for that.I would also launch a suit on Allred for frivolous law suits. Take some of that skanks cash as well. Maybe they would think twice and leave these situations alone..After all they are all adults and knew what they were doing..right or wrong.The only innocent person here is Bullock.

Gloria Allred is a lawyer bum, who gets off on other peoples misery.

By MAGOOS

This voracious wordsmith will no doubt learn to live with her reputation as the "Hooker's brief". If she did not do it, some other legal predator would as this activity seems to be on the up and up.

As a woman I find Gloria Allred to be the ambulance chaser in her profession. Don't get me wrong there was a point I found her credible but then its as if her clients aren't looking for her she (Gloria) waits for them to appear on TV or when there's a rumor about to hit the tabloids. Just an observation.

By Lisa

I use to respect Gloria Allred, however her representing all these mistresses is hurting her credibility. I saw her on Sean Hannity Show talking about how Tiger owed these women a Public Apology and I wanted to laugh. Both parties were grown consenting adults. These women are just pissed off the "Tiger gravy train" is over since he's gonna be good now.

You are sooo right! Why should Tiger apologize to them! They knew da*# well what they were doing when they went to bed with him! If any one should apologize it's the misstresses and it should be to Tigers Wife!!!

By dennismitchell

Gloria Allred is a joke period...lol..She solicits trash cases, where folks dirty laundry is "aired"..She is a "masochist" of "trash lawyers" who loves the limelight. She feeds upon women's misery, like a crackhead on the street..I don't even take anything she says serious..She adds kerosene to an open flame...and stands from the sidelines..and say's,"let them burn"..(paraphrasing) (Being men)..even if she don't have all the facts...she speaks with the flow of diarrhea, smelling up the place with utter nonsense and hearsay..And demands apologies from men, when none are warranted at the time of an investigation..lol..while her ton's of make up drips from her pale and crusted face..
Sorta like a,

Senior citizen " Bride of Chucky doll"..

Hollywood drama at it's finest!

Yikes. But what do you really mean to say?

By johnjfoote

Typical lawyer, bottom feeding money whore. I wish her and her kind all the grief life can dish out.

GLORIA ALLRED IS SATAN!!! I HONESTLY HOPE SHE IS THE TARGET OF A SCANDAL ONE OF THESE DAYS AND SOME LAWYER FINDS A WAY TO TAKE HER FOR EVERYTHING SHE'S GOT. IF THEY COULD PUT HER BEHIND BARS THAT WOULD BE THE ICING ON THE CAKE.

By Nick Mayor

Gloria Allred is a man-hating, unethical monster. She is so rabid in her hatred of men and she lives to get her name in the paper. But I give her credit. She won the Hunter Tylo case, the greatest travesty in the history of our legal system. Tylo did break her contract by getting pregnant. The legal [and should have been binding] contract specifically stated that she could not alter her appearance. She was hired to play a sex pot and as much as women can glow during a pregnancy, the producers were hoping for love scenes where her body would be on display. The most amazing part is that she is probably the worst actress of all time. She still does soaps and you would swear she took acting lessons from Madonna and graduated last in her class.

Gloria Allred is the epitome of a bottom feeder, a pox on society

By Trowgo

Gloria Allred may help good women in times of need, but why in the hell does she keep taking these whores for cliants? They slept with married men and want to cash in for it, so I can call them whores, which in a legal sense is making MS Allred a pimp in a sort. What do these women want? I am so effin tierd of the Tiger cheaters wanting to show the world his text messages. And the same thing again because JJ couldn't keep it in his pants.
To MS Allred, hop off the gravy train and show the class you used to have, you have lowered your starands to the point you are not much better than these lot lizards.

Think about it - After the divorce, Jesse the Pig will get half (50%) of Sandra Bullock's money and when he "settles" with Gloria Allred on behalf of the skanks, they will all get a piece of Sandra's money. Too bad Sandra can't refuse to divorce him.

By aerofanz

I don't think that there shoiuld be any sympathy for a woman who gets involved with a married man. Are these women going to alledge that they didn't know Tiger, John Edwards, or Jesse were married? If you are stupid enough to get involved with a married man and expect anything but good sex and heartache, you are a dumb broad. That's all I got. And the thought that I wouldn't want to kill myself if anyone EVER found out was always there. Never did I think my stupid behavior would get me in the news or on the cover of GQ!!! What a world we live in. Gloria's just as stupid as these women.....

By jmslotnick

Did anyone ever notice that Gloria Allred only takes women who make headlines and go after rich men? Bet she never takes a nobody or does pro bono!!

By Karen

You have no idea of the many cases Ms. Allred has handled pro bono.

By MDx

I guess Jessee didn't like making peanut butter sandwiches day after day. Family was the last on his mind. If you play with hornets, expect to get stung by them.

By worby1

If she dose'nt do it , sombody else will.
