Erin Andrews Peephole Video: What You're Not Seeing

Erin Andrews may now be the most sought after woman in sports -- and all because of an elusive peephole video that has been uploaded to the internet. The Erin Andrews peephole video has gone viral -- or at least articles and ads purporting to have the Erin Andrews peephole video have gone viral -- and the internet has been ablaze for the past couple days with traffic either accessing or attempting to access the comely sports announcer's naked form via a video filmed without her knowledge. For her part, she has issued a legal statement through her lawyers that once the perpetrator or perpetrators are found, they will be prosecuted.

And rightly so...

Erin Andrews, for those who still have no idea who she is, works for ESPN as a sports reporter. Apart from being extremely attractive and popular, she is very good at her job. And although the more cynical will say that Erin Andrews has made it as far as she has primarily because of her looks, it must be noted that, if true, it isn't because she has calculatingly used her beauty to become a popular ESPN sports reporter. You won't find half a dozen swimsuit calendars with Erin Andrews posed provocatively atop the months of the year. And you won't find any nude photos or Playboy spreads (although she has been voted Playboy's Sexiest Sports Announcer).

And no sex tape. There is no Erin Andrews sex tape.

But you can find her in hundreds of photos on the web. For some, she wears far too many clothes, but clothed she is. And her photos (and videos) rarely show her in anything overly provocative, although she doesn't steer away from the forming fitting pair of slacks or an accentuating sweater. (There is nothing wrong with dressing for success or simply looking presentable. Male sports announcers are not seen running the sidelines in sweats or a ragged t-shirt and jeans.)

Still, Erin Andrews seems to have taken great pains over the years to be taken as a serious sports reporter, announcer, and journalist.

But there is an Erin Andrews peephole video and if people were sick of seeing everything Erin Andrews on the internet, they had seen nothing compared to the traffic onslaught of the search for the peephole video. Which will in turn lead to Erin Andrews popularity and fame skyrocketing. It is known as the "Paris Hilton Law," or something to that effect. Naked photos, videos, or sex tapes tend to do that for an attractive woman's career these days, but those images are usually taken with their consent. They may have not been placed on the internet by their consent (and usually are not), but the photos et. al. of them in their various degrees of nakedness were taken with their knowledge and consent.

Erin Andrews peephole video was not.

And internet users apparently want to see it because it has remained one of the most searched topics on the internet for the past several days. With the various websites being tracked down and shut down by Erin Andrews' lawyers and threats of lawsuits, the peephole video has also become something of a hide-and-seek game. Users have been treated with search terms like "Erin Andrews peephole video," "Erin Andrews peephole video google cache," and "Erin Andrews peephole video rapidshare." No doubt there have been hundreds of articles and blogs written about the elusiveness of the video (this writer has read about a dozen simply researching this article), many of them complaining about the unavailability of the peephole video once they arrive, or that there is some form of locking quiz to complete in order to access the video, or that the link was simply a scam to get the user to access the target website with no intention of showing the Erin Andrews peephole video.

And so it goes...

But even though Erin Andrews may be annoyed, somewhat embarrassed, even angry over the peephole videos dissemination, she can take encouragement in the fact that she really is such a popular commodity. And as counterintuitive as it seems to be, there is no doubt that her "brand" has just increased tremendously in value. And although it is apparent that Andrews has been successful through hard work and plain good reporting throughout her sports reporting career, the dissemination of the peephole video in no way diminishes her accomplishments.

Because Erin Andrews did not become famous due to posing naked for Playboy. She did not become well known because of naked photos taken of her in college that someone "discovered" and sold to TMZ. Erin Andrews did not make a sex tape with an ex-boyfriend who released it later for profit and revenge. And Erin Andrews didn't become famous because of a peephole video taken of her naked without her consent.

It will, as stated, make her more famous. But she will not be famous because of it.

Because she was already well known in her chosen field of endeavor. She was already famous for her sideline reporting and her sports blog. And, yes, she was known for her good looks as well, but that was incidental, an attractor.

It must also be noted that Erin Andrews did not dodge this scandal bullet. She met it head on and did not pretend that the peephole video was not of her (something that was being hotly debated on the internet before she issued her statement). And it speaks to her professionalism. For her sake, it is hoped that this peephole video episode passes quickly, so she can get back to concentrating on her job -- reporting sports.
