Jayde Nicole, Playmate of the Year 2008 and girlfriend of Brody Jenner, is sticking by her side of the story regarding what went down at a club last week.
The 23-year-old Canadian model says she "beaten in the face and body" by Girls Gone Wild head honcho Joe Francis and there are witnesses to prove it.
The melee started because Francis was hitting on an ex, a girl Jayde is apparently friends with. Nicole wanted him to back off and threw a drink on him.
Francis denies assaulting her and says the only physical contact during the brawl was initiated by Jenner and Nicole. But the latter takes exception to that.
Jayde Nicole's rep just released this statement:
"On Friday, August 28 at 1:20 a.m., Jayde Nicole was the victim of a violent assault when she was attacked from behind, thrown to the ground by her hair, and beaten in the face and body in front of witnesses by a person identified as Joe Francis."
SHE SAID, SLEAZE SAID: Who do you trust less here?
"Jayde immediately reported the assault to the local authorities and is continuing to cooperate fully in the ongoing police investigation of Mr. Francis."
"Because of the ongoing criminal investigation of Mr. Francis, it will be inappropriate to comment further at this time out of respect for the process."
"Photos, videos and hospital records of Jayde's injuries and of the attack corroborate the crimes committed by Francis, and it is the hope of those who love and care about Jayde Nicole that he will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law."
It's an interesting claim, as Francis also says that video and eyewitness accounts will support his side. Then again, he's Joe Francis. Can you really believe a man who gets teenage girls drunk and makes them take off their tops for money?
