LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Having made a fortune off bare-breasted women, "Girls Gone Wild" founder is setting his sights on selling another type of breast.

A restaurant chain under the "Girls Gone Wild" brand name is being planned by Joe Francis, whose Mantra Films Inc.'s has built a $100 million business videotaping and selling the DVDs featuring young women exposing their breasts.

"This is going to be about fun, lifestyle, youth, sun. It's about everything 'Girls Gone Wild,"' Francis said. "It's going to be sexy without being sexual."

There will be no stripping, topless waitresses or filming in the restaurants, Francis said.

The first two restaurants are expected to open by mid-summer in Mexican beach towns Cabo San Lucas and Cancun. Francis sees franchises popping up mainly in college towns in the United States and around the world.

He said "Girls Gone Wild" restaurants will appeal to women who want to feel sexy, exiting and edgy.

Guys will turn out because "guys are always there, panting," he joked.

And he is not stopping at restaurants. Francis and Mantra plan a line of women's apparel including casual wear, lounge wear and swimwear that will be in stores by April 30.

Theme restaurants have been around for years. U.S. restaurant chain Hooters is based on the idea that waitresses in tight T-shirts and short shorts will lure patrons. Theme restaurants, in turn, sell a lot of apparel.

Mantra produces roughly 80 "Girls Gone Wild" DVDs a year, and is expanding to the United Kingdom, Australia and France.

Francis said Mantra holds roughly 700 special events and parties each year in bars and restaurants to videotape patrons going wild, drinking alcohol and, of course, exposing breasts.

Not to mention Hooters is not owned by an arrogant prick like Francis.

I don't think women go to restaurants to feel that way. Plus, girls in the Girls Gone Wild videos may feel sexy, exciting, and edgy when they flash the cameras, they probably feel slutty, used, and pissed once morning comes. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

So they can take them off for the videos. :D Slick.

lmao. That's a classic post.

anyways, I think this idea is going to cause a lot of controversy, and in return will give it free publicity and probably make it even more popular. That's if the cities will give them permission to build the restraunt.

Yesterday when flipping through the channels I came across the Antonio Banderas teaches inner-city kids how to dance his way while incorporating their style of dance in order to win the big competition movie, and noticed one of the kids in it was Rufio. I couldn't take the movie seriously after that.

When the kid from Kazaam was in Crank and at his scene, when he was shot by Statham, I said "I bet you wish you had Shaq, huh, you dead motherfucker" :D

Making fortune on the girls exposing breasts? So not true!

Breasts, buttocks, and lotsa gynecological POVs.

I still prefer Dream Girls series...
