Girls Gone Wild (franchise)
Girls Gone Wild is an adult entertainment franchise developed by Joe Francis in 1997. The company is known for its early use of direct-response marketing techniques, including its late-night infomercials that began airing in 1997. The videos typically involve camera crews at party locations engaging young college aged women who willingly expose their bodies or act “wild.” Since 2008, the Girls Gone Wild (GGW) products have been sold primarily through their website as streaming videos, downloads, and DVDs.
Instances of Girls Gone Wild in popular-culture include the appearance of Eminem and Snoop Dogg in the company’s videos, MGM’s announcement in 2002 that it would release a feature-length film based on the Girls Gone Wild concept, as well as various references and parodies of the show in popular television series and movies.
Girls Gone Wild was created by Joe Francis, who occasionally appears as the host of the videos.

Famous quotes containing the words girls and/or wild:
“Unfortunately there is still a cultural stereotype that it’s all right for girls to be affectionate but that once boys reach six or seven, they no longer need so much hugging and kissing. What this does is dissuade boys from expressing their natural feelings of tenderness and affection. It is important that we act affectionately with our sons as well as our daughters.”
—Stephanie Martson (20th century)
“And graven with diamonds in letters plain
There is written her fair neck round about:
“Noli me tangere for Caesar’s I am,
And wild for to hold though I seem tame.””
—Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503?–1542)
