Two young women who allegedly posed for racy photos with Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones have claimed they had no idea about an apparent extortion plot that was revealed this week.
Lindzie, a blonde in one photo, and Jordan, a brunette in another, are two strippers from Texas who have now retained an attorney because they are scared that Jones may get the wrong idea and pursue legal action against the two, TMZ reports.
“There was a lot of alcohol involved,’’ TMZ quoted the women as saying.
Jones has yet to publicly address the scandal since it broke Tuesday. Multiple calls to his spokesman, Rich Dalrymple, and his lawyer, Levi McCathern, weren’t returned.
Despite their seductive poses, the strippers insisted they were clueless that pictures were being taken.
They said Jones’ bodyguard would have confiscated the camera had he known pictures were being snapped.
Lindzie and Jordan, whose real names weren’t released, said they have retained a lawyer because they fear Jones may pursue legal action against them. They said they also want to get the pictures banished from the Internet.
Lindzie dances at Centerfolds in Houston, while Jordan strips at a jiggle joint in Fort Worth, TMZ reports.
As for the friend who snapped the photos, the two said they’ve tried to get in touch with her to no avail.
The three sexy shots were posted on Twitter this week by Frank Hoover, of Wichita, Kan., who said he had held onto the photos to thwart an extortion plot against Jones.
Hoover, whose Twitter handle is @INFIN8SON, told The Post that he didn’t intend to “slander Jerry.”
“The reason I put the document out there is because I reached out to his attorneys and everybody ignored me,” Hoover said.
Along with the photos, Hoover published a 20-page manifesto titled “Uncovering the Truth” in which he names four alleged extortionists, including an Oklahoma woman “responsible for the photos.”
The woman’s e-mail address is associated with a inactive account on the social-media site Pinterest, as well as an escort-review site.
Hoover rants on a variety of topics on YouTube, including Taylor Swift, US health care and the true meaning of pi.
In a video titled “The Ark of Jerry Jones,” he says three marks on his finger are signs from God that the end is near and warns Jones to prepare.
“Jerry Jones . . . it’s time to start the rapture because God is coming home,” he wrote in the video’s description.
