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:
“Fathers are still considered the most important “doers” in our culture, and in most families they are that. Girls see them as the family authorities on careers, and so fathers’ encouragement and counsel is important to them. When fathers don’t take their daughters’ achievements and plans seriously, girls sometimes have trouble taking themselves seriously.”
—Stella Chess (20th century)
“Ah! I have penetrated to those meadows on the morning of many a first spring day, jumping from hummock to hummock, from willow root to willow root, when the wild river valley and the woods were bathed in so pure and bright a light as would have waked the dead, if they had been slumbering in their graves, as some suppose. There needs no stronger proof of immortality. All things must live in such a light. O Death, where was thy sting? O Grave, where was thy victory, then?”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
