OK, spill it. What's the guy's name? He needs to have it all over the internet and have his job offers rescinded too.

NY Daily News needs to get a clue. At tier 2 schools like Brooklyn, all but the top 10% take sweatshop jobs at ID firms paying $50k.

That's far from being a "Top Law Student."

Adrienne: 180

Adriana: 122

hey -- aquagirl got a 10th cir clerkship. who knows where this girl will end up...

2:49: So true. I wish Adrienne had shown as much as Adriana.

Interesting question: if doing porn isn't DING! worthy for the act itself, but rather for the 'poor judgment' that such a decision reveals, why is doing porn automatically poor judgment? Sounds like an indirect way of imposing the same 'virgin/lawyer or whore/unemployable' framework to me.

That 'the client will care' isn't a different answer from saying the partners don't approve of respectable women doing porn. Instead, it just uses societal misogyny to repress the woman, rather than the decision-maker's misogyny. If your firm had a racist client, could you DING! a new hire just for being black?

I just left posts on the WSJ law blog, and the NY Daily News to express my outrage at how badly NY Daily News missed the point.

post the pictures

the video is on FoxNews

"the video is on FoxNews"

Gotta love the Ron Jeremy-look-a-like associated with the jumpy horny happy girls website, or whatever it's called.

i know i shouldn't respond to L2L but....i am a BLS alum, not in the top 10% and I have a big firm job......

3:33, what portion of BLS students get good jobs?

L2L -- all of the ones with self respect.

I respect myself. That's why I speak out against the tier 2 fraud. Self respect doesn't get you a decent job. You need a degree from a good school.

L2L,

Although we at BLS wear the scarlet tier 2 as well, the USNWR really gives us the screws. But hey all I know is I'm not top 10% and I landed a biglaw summer associate position - but you do need to do fairly well- Regardless we can all agree that Ms. D is no "top student" anyway you define the term.

http://www.gothamist.com/2007/04/10/play_law.php

What's up with those ribs?

Great, like we really need another reason for people to think BLS is a joke.

2:55 - yeah, being a stripper is just like being black

This hasn't even been limited to the BLS community:

http://www.xoxohth.com/thread.php?thread_id=593261&mc=148&forum_id=2

2:55 - yeah, thinking circulating naked pictures of yourself is unprofessional = misogyny - another excellent point

As a feminist, I can say with great effect that this girl is a f'ing idiot. I have NO problem with porn, but I do have a problem with hiring lawyers who don't understand the concept of "long-term consequence." I mean, maybe this is something you do when you're 19 and drunk...but 25, sober, and on a career-path...that's just sabotage.

She says she wonders how it got leaked, yet it's been in her myspace and AIM profile for months now

I was already asked about the video and the Daily News article on a job interview for no other reason than I go to Brooklyn Law.

The worst thing she can do now is to cower or express regret. Still seems arguable whether or not this was a bad decision on her part. IMO best course of action for her is to say that she doesnt want the extra attention, but is confident in her feminity and has no regrets about the spread. To admit bad judgment will invite extra scrutiny from those who might seek to hold her back while at the same time putting off the more liberal folk who might hire her. The photos are purposefully non-erotic. She could give this a positive spin with ease so long as she can shrug off the critics.

4:26 - What firm? Are they still hiring?

Is this her?
http://www.brooklaw.edu/news/barristersball2007/gallery/large/image39.jpg

lol L2L completely hijacked the NY Daily News discussion board.

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/2007/04/10/2007-04-10_its_jurisimprudence-2.html

Daily News and CW11 were interviewing students as they left the school today.

She needs to parlay this into a 6 or 7 movie deal with Vivid Productions. No, she's not the hottest girl, but she's got name recognition, baby.

5:45, what she has is fool appeal. "Oh, you were that BLS skank whose bare ass I watched get spanked on my firms computer, I guess I can interview you for fun just to say I did.."

There is such a double-standard to this discussion, I simply cannot stand it. It appears that there was at least one male BLS student in this video, and he is not being held up for shame, ridicule, critique, and whatever else people are heaping on Ms. Dominguez though--duh--he actively participated in porn, too. Why is this dude sacrosanct? I think being a sideline perv in a porn video--including acts such as "holding her vagina"-- is actually much more ripe for contempt than being the star of such a show. Lat, by not being more aggressive in seeking his identity, I think you are disappointingly condoning this double standard; surely he is just as ripe fodder for our amusement. Someone MUST out this guy, or Joe Francis might as well become our next AG.

6:18: His name is Sean Kalish. Happy now?

6:16, this is 6:14. Thanks for the info, but not by half. This whole story should never just have been about the female student, but about both of them. In the long run, it's her name that will be smeared, and it's her that people won't take seriously; Mr. Kalish will probably just get a few rounds of frat boy haw-haws from the old boy network out of this.

6:14

He had his clothes on. If he didn't, perhaps we'd be talking about him too. But, then again, as you yourself admit, he was not "the star of the show."

6:22 PM:

I do think you're right about the double standard and I've only seen part of the video.

But I think we can all make a distinction between getting nekkid for a Playboy production and playing an ancillary role in the production.

I really do think that if the tables were turned, we'd be guffawing over a male law student who did something similar. Or am I wrong?

6:14, it's 6:12 again. I agree with you which is why I put his name out there. I hope someone does something with it like outting him.

This is 6:22. Please people, he was holding the vagina of his classmate on tape! As can be easily discerned from ATL, you don't have to shed your clothes to become the butt (no pun intended) of your professional community's jokes. I hate to play it, but how about the porn exploitation of women angle? I sure as heck hope that guy does not work in the family, domestic violence, or similar areas--and even if you're big business, do YOU want that guy with his hands on your files? While I recognize the difference between a little sex play and DV, one can easily envision Ms. Dominguez as the victim of some patriarchy-type action at work here--with Mr. Kalish as lead/enabling exploiter.

2:55 et al.,

Personally I'm all in favor of every hot young female lawyer doing porn. So get on it, girls.

6:12, this is 6:22/6:14. Your actions are much appreciated in the spirit of fairness, but I think we both know that it is highly unlikely anything will really happen to this guy. Thanks, though. Sigh.

http://www.brooklaw.edu/facebook/photo2/sean.kalish.jpg

Again, I'd hit it. Multiple times, in fact.

Personally, I can think of about 25 women from my law school class and in my legal community, who I'd like to see exposing themselves on tape in a similar manner.

Yes, I'm a chauvinistic pig, but I'm also a guy with hormones which demand attention.

Does anybody have a link to the video that works?

Does anyone have this video? Please email to adrianavid_2@yahoo.com. Thanks!

picsplz kthxbye. :)

"Again, I'd hit it. Multiple times, in fact."

So would I. She likes spanking, so that works for her.

the best comment i've heard about this whole ordeal is a follows:

"well, at least now people will know that Brooklyn Law School actually exists."

despite the negative publicity this video fiasco is generating (with respect to BLS), it could certainly be a lot worse. think about it - at least adriana is quasi-attractive... most of the other girls attending BLS look like the mutant offspring of gary busey and jabba the hut.

8:54- Your post gets a 176.

nice job Lat, you brought all the worst of AutoAdmit over to ATL for a misogyny-fest. edifying as ever. thanks.

enjoy

http://www.nakedhappygirls.com:80/videoplayer.php?video=39

Greeeeeeeeeeaaat, now ATL is basically a trashcan for pornhounds to dig around looking for "sweet pr0n vids."

I'm with 10:24 on this one.

http://www.nakedhappygirls.com/videoplayer.php?video=39

Here's a thought experiement: if she switched places with Sean Kalish and had appeared fully clothed but participating in a porn video, and he was nekkid, I'm sure the girl would still get way much more humiliation and ridicule than the guy.

Anyway, I agree qith 12:17 et al: the atmosphere in here has become a little bit smelly.

"I wanted to do something a little crazy before I graduate and do become a lawyer ... do something kind of out of character... Lawyers can be boring."

there's that pornstar lawyer in LA... She's not really out of character

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/2007/04/11/2007-04-11_she_wasnt_camerashy.html

According to this, she hired a publicist:
http://wcbstv.com/topstories/local_story_100170738.html

Sean Kalish really blew it with that Daily News interview -- he had a chance to be loyal, mature, respectful and supportive, but instead just ends up looking like he's throwing the blame on his ex. Not classy at all.

"Sean Kalish really blew it with that Daily News interview -- he had a chance to be loyal, mature, respectful and supportive, but instead just ends up looking like he's throwing the blame on his ex. Not classy at all."

Hunh? Did you even bother to read the article? He went out of his way to praise her ("beautiful...smart...creative"), and never threw ANY blame on his ex for his part in the video.

This guy is practically a saint.

I want to shoot my own Playgirl TV spot. I'm thinking it should include me, a buffalo (preferably stuffed, for safety's sake), a bucket of ice, and a 9-iron.

Give me a break, Sean Kalish a saint? Sean Kalish is a pig and should feel the heat from this too. Way to man up in that article Sean and blame your GF for your stupid decisions as well. No wonder she dumped Sean Kalish--he's a coward.

I had a doozy of a playgirl shoot the other night. Get this: a corn-fed harvest mouse, a hooker, a nun, a Flemish peasant woman, whistle yo-yo's, and a circus midget.

Loyola 2L: After some careful thought, I believe I have discovered your calling in life. You need to go into PR. You are absolutely amazing (at least in written form) at regurgitating the same points and assertions over and over and over again, without even thinking twice about how or why you're doing it, or whether alternative arguments have merit. You also seem to have no other interests besides faux publicity and rampant narcissism. You would make a great publicist! I (and almost everyone else on this board, I think) would wholeheartedly endorse you and recommend you to a potential PR employer.

11:45am and I must have been at the same shoot. But my scene involved an amputee dwarf, roman candles, a bottle of olive oil, and a guy in a spiderman costume.

It was hott.

11:52- refer Loyola 2L to Adriana in case she ever fires her current PR person.

New Adriana thread here:

http://www.abovethelaw.com/2007/04/the_jurisdiction_stripper_adri.php

11:45 - I'll say this - my shoot involved shower shoes, a cloak, a monicle, a riding crop and circus peanuts candy.

11:52. No I think about why I'm doing it. I do it to cope with the disappointment, regret and misery of a non top 10% tier 2 law student.

You think misery is too strong a work? Let me explain. While my friends from good schools are making $3,000 per week this summer and getting wined and dined, I will be making $15/hour copying and filing. They even put that in my job title "file clerk." While my friends from good schools are making $200,000 upon graduation and working at firms who care about their reputation and culture, I will be making $50,000 working for a small firm who couldn't give a rat's ass about how they treat their people.

While my friends are paying off $150,000 in student loan debt, I will also be paying off $150,000 in student loan debt. Funny how something that's worth so much less than their degree can cost just as much.

Finally, this isn't an ephemeral "argument." It's tangible reality. It's about a very real thing - money and jobs. You can argue all you want, but at the end of the day it's not going to get anyone a job, or help anyone cope with the life crushing misery that is tier 2 student loan debt.

Loyola 2L: You are proving my point, exactly. You regurgitate the same crap over and over again, without fail. You blame professors' arbitrary grading habits for you not doing better. You blame your tier for your job plight. Your arguments have no basis in the reality that everyone else here lives and breathes in every day. I have been reading this board for a while and you have received, somewhat consistently, tangible advice, support, recommendations and information re: your job search and your employment prospects. You don't seem to take any of it seriously. You spend a good chunk of your day posting on this site, on WSJ Law Blog, probably on xoxoxo, on NY Daily News (if it means free publicity for you), or on any other future forum in which you will have a chance to vomit up your insufferable narcissism and whiny attitude. I recommend a therapist, some self-help books and a punch in a face. Get on it!

11:52 - Don't call my plight an argument. You and I are not two top school grads, earning $200,000 per year, arguing in a courtroom when we both know it doesn't matter - since we'll be fine either way.

I don't have a job. That's very real. I have debt that I can't discharge. That's very real. Half of my classmates won't have a job on graduation. That’s very real. These aren’t arguments. They’re facts.

Since you brought it up, law school essay grading is disconcertingly subjective and random. You're not even allowed to question the grades. Schools have mandatory "no regrading allowed" policies, because they know they can't justify the grades. Law classes aren't objective classes. The professors can give points for whatever reason they want. Their whimsy drives the grades. This wouldn't be a problem at top schools where most students get good jobs, but at a tier 2 law school it's very harsh.

So as you’re sitting in your cushy office, making more money than you need to “argue,” know that thousands of tier 2 law students are living miserable lives racked with awful jobs and suffocating debt, and that’s fact.

Loyola 2L - Your reality is shared by many. The jobs are few and the debt is extremely overwhelming. Incidentally, those in the top 10% are usually on scholarship, and have the least amount of debt to pay off (usually).

I hope for 11:52 that this reality is not his or hers, since it is an awful one. But I am shocked by 11:52's lack of empathy for someone in the trenches of the legal profession, who's battles are outside the hallowed walls of the white shoe firms.

I have many friends in your shoes, Loyola 2L (I myself have just stepped out of them). It is extremely frustrating to watch them flounder without any guidance from the school's career center. Trust me, there is much more wrong at Brooklyn Law School than a girl taking off her clothes online.

"It is extremely frustrating to watch them flounder without any guidance from the school's career center. Trust me, there is much more wrong at Brooklyn Law School than a girl taking off her clothes online."

A current BLS student has written a series of blog entries about the career office and what a fraud they actually are.

http://emplawyernot.blogspot.com/search/label/Career-Centered

Any confirmation?

Totally agree. Now that tuitions are crossing the 40k threshold expect to hear more about these issues in the coming years. The Career Center is not the problem. The real problem is run away tuitions and debt loads.

wowsers, what a Boober. Seriously, look at the mug on that mangled muppet. I didn't know they had a law school down in Fraggle Rock.

This is further proof that ALL American women, esp if they are hot SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO BE LAWYERS.

These cunt face women will sleep their way to the top.

she is a gross person w/ no tits and a lump on her hips... i do not think she would make it too far in porn...or the law. that was just nasty.

she looks like a mexican infant.
