Guy gone mild!
Video entrepreneur Joe Francis made his fortune -- and some controversy -- with the racy Girls Gone Wild DVD series. But nowadays, he's settled down with fiancee Christina McLarty, to whom he proposed in June.

His inspiration to become a married man: good pals Khloe Kardashian and hubby Lamar Odom. "Khloe and Lamar make an amazing couple," Francis, 37, tells UsMagazine.com of the couple, who celebrate their one-year wedding anniversary Sept. 27. "You see their energy together is real and true love." he adds.

"Just spending time with [Khloe and Lamar] is full of happiness and laughter," Francis tells Us of the smitten pair. "My fiancee and I are the best of friends, just like Khloe and Lamar, and the next step for us to go down the aisle is only natural!"
Upon hearing of Francis' engagement, happy wife Khloe, 26, texted her friend a congrats text. The message: "U will love marriage!"

Tell Us What You Think
27Think Khloe is an attractive woman. If I saw her on the streets, mall or at my work place, I'd think "wow she's a good looking lady." Now on to the JOE THE HO. He's awful & should be set up with Rachel Uchatel (Tiger's other ex)
she's a giant lol
hahaha wow great insperation who's gonna wanna marry this idiot oh i know probably that farzeen loser
So, someone is going to marry Joe Francis? Really? He has no respect for women and yet, someone is going to marry him!! I find it hard to believe that he has changed his whole life style; saying that Khloe Kardashian inspired him to marry. I almost felt a tear come up. The only person he can inspire him to marry should have been his fiancee. His fiancee should have been the reason why he wanted to get married; not someone else. What a jackass!!!
The only thing she inspires me to do is put down a fork....she is a fatty.
Remember when Francis was in jail & called them to set up a photo shoot at his place in Mexico. Again....Its all about the ole mighty dollar bill when it comes to these people. They picked money over family, i.e. Brody! Point is - get some morals & standards!
The funny thing is, Joe Francis kicked Brody Jenner's butt a while back over Brody's "then" girlfriend. Isn't that something that the K family (excluding Bruce) still remain good friends w/Francis?????. Surely it wouldn't be because he has more money & also allows them to stay at his Vila in Mexico for free......Hummmmm? I bet if he was broke, he'd be history after beating up their step brother! Food for thought....
why can't US go a day without having some idiot with the last name "kardashian" on this site?
Khloe inspired Joe to marry a Ho. Joe wants a Skank just like her. Khloe is a Who.re.,Sl.ut.,Bit.ch.,Cu.nt. and Tw.at. I HATE Khloe. I LOATHE Khloe. Khloe is a Fat,Dog Ugly and Butt Fugly.
both of these people are no talent losers. yawn.. next.
their not even getting married. he said in a statement that they won't legally get married until everyone else can. which is actually code for: great now i can fool around and not have any legal bindings!
I think I barfed just a little...Francis is an absolute sleaze and I would question a normal woman having him as a friend but this is a Kardashian woman we are speaking of - with a pimp for a mom and memories of her father who helped OJ escape punishment for butchering his wife..Khloe has nothing to draw from. But Francis is a pig...the fiance most certainly must be a brain surgeon.
Joe you're a total douch er, I may be bad in bed and smelly and loose, but I'm not a douch er,
These people are clueless about marriage. Most married celebrities hardly ever see each other.
Who REALLY CARES what this creep does??? The way he made his $$ is repulsive enough. The girl who accepted his proposal must be a good-looking DING BAT! That's putting it politely. Should we make bets how long this future marriage will last? HA!!!!
Kholoe your the best out of you sisters. You tell it like it is or should be. Which i really find genuine. When everyone want to play nice you be yourself. Love the both shows.
hey, Kardashians girls I love your show, I´m from Colombia, you guys are great, funny, and woth a cheerful attitute, i like that.
Video intrepreneur? Give me a break! This is a loser a no talent ugly scumbag who once realized that this country has a lot of s.l.u.t.s who would do anything for fame / money!
Let me guess how this amazing love story came about: Joe was in the middle of filming his thought-provoking series Girls Gone Wild when he looked up to see who the incredible set belonged to to see...wait for it...wait for it...the love of his life! Their eyes met...after Joe finally took his eyes off her twins..and the rest is history. How sweet!
ha,ha she also inspired him to record young girls taking their clothes off... lol
