Erin Andrews Peephole Video Being Shopped Around, Reports TMZ

The Erin Andrews peephole video is being shopped around for a buyer, reports the celebrity website TMZ. According to TMZ, it is clear that a "pervert is on the loose." TMZ further notes that the Erin Andrews peephole video appears to have been shot from a spy cam and that that the perpetrator (or perpetrators as the case may be) must have drilled a hole in Erin Andrews' hotel room from an adjoining room.

Indeed, the Erin Andrews peephole video link story has morphed into a full blown Internet phenomenon and it just keeps on going. The attractive ESPN sideline reporter was allegedly surreptitiously filmed in a hotel room through a peephole while styling her hair in the nude.

When news of the Erin Andrews peephole video story broke, bloggers and commentators were understandably outraged. Andrews' lawyers immediately requested that the Erin Andrews nude video be taken down and threatened to vigorously prosecute those responsible for making the video.

It should come as no surprise that people would try to profit from the Erin Andrews peephole video. And TMZ is correct in describing such people as "perverts."

But can you really expect to sell something that is already available for free? A number of people have made the point (many have posted their comments under the aforementioned TMZ article) that the Erin Andrews nude video is already being traded for free on the Internet.

Interestingly, some are now speculating that the Erin Andrews peephole video was staged and that Erin Andrews had a hand in making and distributing it. These people believe that it is one giant publicity stunt (if this is true, then it could be aptly described as the Mother of all publicity stunts).

Is it possible that the Erin Andrews peephole video was staged by Erin Andrews herself?

Sure, anything is possible.

But one thing is for sure: we haven't heard the last of this story.

It has been a top search topic on the Web for days now. And it keeps growing new elements. This is reflected in the variety of search phrases that have found their way onto search engines: "Erin Andrews peephole video," Erin Andrews peephole video link," Erin Andrews nude," Erin Andrews sexy pictures," Erin Andrews peephole video rapidshare," and "Erin Andrews peephole video cache."

There is also another thing you can be sure of: from now on, celebrities will carefully check their hotel rooms for peepholes.
